One of my many super stylish friends got married this past Saturday and I was so blown away by the beauty of it all that I just HAD to share... with her permission, of course!
Here’s another late one! LOL! Hope everyone’s weekend kicked off nicely. I’d love for you all to check out my hair story over on trialsntresses.com. Thank you so much for the feature TNT! Enjoy the rest of your weekend everyone. xoxo ~Toia
So, here’s the story. I was invited to a brunch taking place tomorrow which I’m very excited to attend. Only thing is, it’s an all-white event. Now, I have a few white separates but nothing that really “goes” together. I’m also on the tightest budget EVER in the history of time. What’s a girl to do?! I took to Google the other night, brainstorming, using my PhotoGrid app to make a quick collage: Folake of Style Pantry always gets it right! A dress takes the guess work out of “what to wear” since it’s basically a top and bottom in one and her maxi is spot on. I added another basic maxi to the mix as well as a few separates just for some inspiration. I often like to accent a neutral, monochromatic palette (esp. white) with color color color, so I thought I’d go with my coral Lizette pumps…
I just saw this on Instagram thanks to being tagged by my friend Kim (hey girl!). I couldn’t have said it better myself. Not only did I repost but I thought it would be a great topic to open up some dialog here on the blog! Have you ever had this conversation with one of your relaxed-haired girlfriends? She tells you how cute your hair is and “you look good with natural hair but I don’t think I could ever go natural… It’s not for everyone”. Sure, every STYLE may not be for everyone but umm, it’s the hair that grows… out of your head! HOW CAN IT NOT BE “FOR YOU”?! I’m sorry ladies, I get confused when I hear this nonsense. What really makes my eye twitch is when they take it a little further talmbout “uh-uh, you don’t understand. My hair is too nappy for me to…
It’s 10:27pm and I’m now sitting down to do my post for the day. Well, it’s still today and I’ve done way worse so let’s go! ^_^ I was tagged by my buddies over at Naturally Supreme (ya know, iFro, iLoc, iTwist… yeah, they rock!), who have also joined in the #31WriteNow mayhem fun, to write 20 random facts about me… I’m soooo making this list up as I go along folks! (-_-) I was born in Barbados… …but I can’t swim. I’m watching that new show Deal With It with the hubster… it’s hilarious! I discovered six gray hairs on my head. SIX! O_O My new favorite colors are coral and teal. My fingernails are coral and my toenails are teal. I didn’t learn to drive until I was 21. Is that weird? I’m told I have a serious face but I’m really quite… cooky! I had horrible acne…
