Layered Necklaces!!!!!!


The layered necklace is most definitely an up and coming trend......from two necklaces to 20 necklaces you can count on this accessory to make a bold statement to an outfit. Tank top and jeans and add layered necklaces and the outfit is jazzed up. This look has been around for many years. I'm sure you all remember the flapper times where women would wear layers of pearls with a gorgeous flapper dress. Well this trend is definitely making a comeback and I love the look. Disclaimer I have not purchased any of these necklaces. I love fashion and I am simply discussing the trend. P.S. Plus size women you can wear these too accesorize!!!!!

My natural hair update!!!!!

At the start of my blog I said I will go on the journey of growing my hair back to its natural state. Well this is month four and I have not had one dose of the "creamy crack" lol. Right now I have a modest afro with small hints of my chemically relaxed hair and I refuse to cut the small strands off. But whatever lol. Remember Picture Page back in the day with Bill Cosby and the little pen he used to write with. My afro looks very similar to that. I am very proud of myself and excited to see how long my hair will get and how my hair looks in its natural state. But now I am rock'n a protective style that I really like. Inspired by Phillydiva on Youtube. I have microbraids in the front(thanks to my lil sis Purkanah) and I sewed tracks in the back. I had to give the wigs a break. By wearing these protective styles you are protecting your natural hair from any heat from the curling iron or sun damage. I wish I could show you pics but I do not have acess to a camera. But soon....real soon.

Monique wins a Golden Globe!!!!!!!!


I just want to congratulate Monique for winning a Golden Globe for her portrayal as the abusive, drug addicted, and hopeless mother in the movie Precious. I recently saw the movie and I must say she really got in touch with the character she was playing. She deserved the award.......and her dress was stunning. She wore a gold, greek draped dress that captured her curves in all the right places. Monique very proud of you and hoping you will get an oscar. And the hair and make-up was flawless.

Layers, Layers. Layers.......

It's all about layering.....this will never go out of style. Layering was very popular in the 80's and have made a comback in 2000. Layering of necklaces...bracelets.....jackets....everything. And if you have curves have no fear we can layer too. From a button down shirt, with a vest, a jacket a tank, jean jacket so chic. Here are a few pictures. I have not purchased any of these items myself but I will be looking out for these items to add to my wardrobe. Okay with this simple vest and tank you can add a blazer, a bunch of necklaces that would turn this outfit from bland to jazzy. Alright we have a simple graphic t-shirt add a white button down shirt or whatever color yellow, red and a jean jacket would set this outfit off. All pics are from www.Torrid.com.
