Hey everyone:
As some of you may know, some of you may not, my birthday was Wednesday the 22nd. I finally turned 21 *does money dance*. I don't think you all know how life changing this is, I can finally go to Chilis and order a margarita. But yeah the real fun is coming this weekend when I go toss some dollas at some strippers. But this post is short and simple. I'll do a photo post when I get home or something.
Adios!

Just A Little Shxt Talking
Yesterday I went IN on Instagram because so many people think they're keeping it "real" but they're just sending off the masses. This is just a little portion of what I was talking about yesterday.
We all like to think our children will be fine with just one parent.
That's not true.
It doesn't matter how phenomenal you are as a parent or if you have a little boy or girl. EVERY child needs a mother and father figure.
There are just simply some lessons that one parent is not feminized or masculine enough to teach.
There will always be a void missing in that child's life.
So PLEASE invest in birth control, invest in strong, healthy MARRIAGES, and please invest in yourself because you ultimately choose what type of relationship and predicament you will have your child in.

In My Absence ...
First I would like to start with I'm sooo sorry. I feel awfully horrible that I made a promise to you all and myself & I completely broke. I hate to come with excuses because I feel like that's all everyone is offered now-a-days so I'll keep them to myself. It's just been a hectic couple of weeks.
So I'll update you with what I've been doing.
1. School started last week so I'm taking four classes this semester. Spanish 2, Sub-Saharan Africa studies, Sociology, and Statistics. Funny how all of those start with a S lol ;-). But those have been taking a lot of my time, more than I expected actually.
2. My online boutique is making underground moves. I have found suppliers & one of my super talented coworkers told me she'd help me with the graphics & photography when needed. I don't think anyone knows how much of a relief that is to me. So this baby will definitely be launching soon.
3. I started a new piece which is deeply rooted to my recent emotional state so I'll be publishing that hopefully one day this week. I love sharing bits and pieces of me with you all. It's not like I enjoy talking to the actual people I go through life with about stuff like that (weird right?).
4. Mini haul video has definitely been filmed so I'm in the editing process of that. Hopefully I can stop being so distracted and finish it up.
5. I've been getting fat :-( yeah lately I've been eating ALL the wrong things. So there will definitely be tons of fitness posts coming because I'd love to be tight and right by spring break.
That's about it everyone. Ohhh yeah! My birthday is in 2 days, I'll be 21. And I just don't feel any excitement at all. I'm trying to own it as being awesome but I'm not so sure it will be. But not to spread my negativity, I'll leave you all with a quote for the week

Quotetastic ;-)
"Rudeness is the weak man's imitation of strength"
So I've been rocking with this quote all month (I sounded cool right?) due to my hectic office job. I have encountered soooo many rude people. It almost seems second nature for people to be rude instead of nice. So I've been using these words as a wooo-sah when I encounter these folks.
But today is a short post. I'll post my super plain outfit as well.
Crop Top; Wet Seal - one of my fave crop tops.
Cardigan; Old Navy - I actually hate this cardigan lol because it's so big!
Jeans; TJ Maxx - like 5 or 6 years ago (it's one of my DIY projects)
Bangles - Forever 21 - one of those $4 black deals during the holidays :-)
Headband; Claires

What Would You Do? Vol.1
So today I really wasn't going to post. It's just been a very bad day. I've been trying to remember all the positive quotes I've read and even all the positivity I tend to spew on to other people. But its been hard. Sometimes I just find myself in places of darkness and I just don't know where to go. It's like being trapped in the dark and any way that you go you just can'd find light. Surely that light will come shining soon but for now I'll keep the extreme darkness to a minimum.
But now back to the segment at hand. I made this a segment because I alwaayssss think of what would you do questions just during everyday life. Some funny, others more serious. And instead of me thinking them and letting them go extinct, I'm going to start to share some with you all.
Today's question came from a conversation I overheard on the bus to work. Yes, I was being nosey but damn it they were being so loud behind me. They were interrupting my daily dose of my dad Fab's (LOL) mixtape, Soul Tape Vol. 3. Yes that's my shit yall! <-- and that was in my most ratchet voice. But yes! This question came straight from their conversation.
If you were on the straight and narrow path & had a job, was in school, and with a nice relationship.But you just hung with people leading dangerous lives (selling drugs, gangbanging, and what ever else they wanna do). So one night you're with your homie in his car and you all get pulled over and he has a gun in the car, which is illegal of course. Would you let them know that's your homie's gun so you won't get in trouble or would you keep the honor of the streets and take the fall with him?
What would you do? I wondered also while thinking about the situation, why wouldn't his "friend" just admit it's his? What type of honor and loyalty is that?
But on to other things, here comes photos of my relaxed look.

Sweater; Forever 21 : I love this sweater, it is so soft & lightweight but keeps me very warm. I've been told I look nice in white.
Leggings; Forever 21: I work here so I had to get the $3.80 leggings and they're durable.
Boots; Qupid : My favorite boots :-) they're my babies.
Earlace; Claire's I believe or Wet Seal. It was like 6 months ago -- I have bad memory lol.
Stay blessed everyone.

Vlogging
Hello all,
So I forgot to tell you all some other news. I'm going to add a vlogging aspect to the blog for some sections as well. Like I have a mini haul coming up & I'll be vlogging that for you all!!! Is anyone as excited as I am for this? Lol probably not. The only downside is I'll be using my shitty webcam until I can afford a better camera. So I won't be on the level as the almighty Youtube gurus but I will still be me :-) if that makes it any better. I'm going to post the link to my Youtube channel which should be empty but it'll be filling up soon.
I'll also let you all see my warm, cute outfit of the day. It's nothing special at all seeing as I got ready in like 30 minutes this morning. This cold got me feeling some type of way lol. Honestly I would like to punch whoever created the snooze button because it is indeed my guilty pleasure . . . .
But here's the link people . . . https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrOZ2smAZg63EGRLBzH4bRA/
And a few photos before I leave you :-)

New Start
Greetings everyone,
I know it's been a loonnnggg time since I've last reached out to everyone on here. I think I was just in a stage of funk for a while. But as we all should know, being in such negative times should bring tons of positivity once they're over. And I have had so many positive ideas spring from within myself in the last month or two.
Firstly, I've made a promise to my baby (my blog), myself, and all of you that I will blog everyday. Yes I said it, EVERYDAY. Lol now I know that's hard to believe by looking at the gaps in the timeline but I've realized that when you really love something you will make time for it. And there's an unbreakable bond between me, my baby, and my readers. So that's that . . . but there's more.
Fashion!!!! I will focusing on fashion more in my blog as well with haul threads & occasional outfit of the day posts. What can I say? I love fashion & all it has to offer. I will be starting this journey with a pretty shitty camera though so please don't judge me. And this new part will make sure I stay on top of my posting game.
Also, I'm starting an online boutique with my cousin Kaprice soon. We've named it Couture Kings, which I loveee. So everyone be on the look out for that. And I'll be updating everyone with that too as we make these steps to entrepreneurship. Come on black women, lets empower each other!
Lastly, I'm on this big health kick right now because I really want to slim down a bit more. So there'l probably be some exercise or healthy eating posts mixed up in here as well as me complaining lbs. I hate dieting & exercising but if I don't I'll be as big as a house lol. I just weighed myself yesterday and I'm a whooping 153 lbs. I guess I carry it well but I'm ready to tone everything up so I can model some of my own clothes :-)
But to leave you all, I'll show some pictures of me celebrating my New Year's Eve. I hope this year is as great for everyone as I'm OWNING it to be for me. I love you all. And don't forget to say a prayer for all of those without homes in this frigid weather outside. May they find the warmth & shelter that need.
