Kanye and Amber are Furdiculous

I don't like Peta but this is a bit much. There is nothing fashionable about this look at all. It screams I have too much money and I want the world to see. To think that Amber was becoming my girl crush. Tisk tisk.

Hells Yeah...

I cannot wait to get home and comb through all the lovely fashion flicks from The Art of Elysium, The Critic’s Choice, and Golden Globe Awards. The pictures I briefly scanned were so divine! 2010 looks like it will be a fierce year in the fashion world!!!

Reliable Charities - Haiti Relief

Hey guys, by now I am sure everyone has heard about the earthquake that hit Haiti. Unfortunately we need to be weary about scams and phony organizations that pray on taking advantage of people during times like this. I have researched and have listed 5 trusted organizations. I have included direct links if you want to donate money online. If you happen to donate to a different organization please make sure you do your research. For starters, check their charity review on BBB. Let's be our brothers keeper.



Here are direct links to donate to any one of these great organizations!!!

1. Doctors Without Borders
2. Direct Relief International
3. CARE
4. Oxfam America
5. Unicef USA

Do You Flip Fold?

I have been seeing this infomercial for a while but after recently trying to help sort the beau's laundry, I am really considering in getting this. Check the funny vid below.

JC is outdoing themselves. These babies would have made Christmas grand but I guess 2 months too late.

It's funny that a week into the new year, I am faced with unimaginable difficulties. I will laugh instead of cry. I am done with the "woe is me" mentality. I look at situations for what it's worth. To build character, gain as life learned lessons, and remind me that God is still GOD! I strongly believe that 2010 will be a good year. Not because it will be a walk in the park but because I will no longer act as a child in challenging situations. My boots are strapped and I am ready.

Word of encourage for anyone that is going through times of difficulties: I DARE YOU NOT TO GIVE UP. Despite your circumstance, enjoy life. There are no dress rehearsals or take backs. Be grateful for what life brings today because God makes no mistakes. See you guys at the top!

2010 Goals: Having Fun

This year I am determined to enjoy this life to the fullest. Some of my closet girlfriends have moved away and I refuse to let the distance get in between our relationships. 2010 will be year filled with great memories, good company, and delightful cuisines. Here are some things I plan on doing this year:



1. The Great Urban Race - I heard about this a few years ago and said I wanted to do it but never have. Basically, the Urban Race is like the Amazing Race. You are in a team of two completing 12 tasks within your city and digitally documenting the adventure. Check to see if they have it in your city by clicking here.
2. Road Trip / Traveling - Charlotte, Virginia, New York, New Mexico here I come!
3. Contemporary Dance Lessons
4. Cooking Classes - Especially for Vday. I want to have more dinner parties, so the best way to become the perfect hostess is to be able to wow my friends by taking some different types of cooking class. I really want to take this sushi class they have in Atlanta.
5. Volunteer - I keep saying I will do this but seriously this year I want to find an organization that I am passionate about, especially something geared to young teenage girls.
6. Essence Festival
7. 2010 World Cup - I will be going to the Brewhouse Cafe regularly this summer to watch the World Cup. Go Nigeria!!!

What are some things you want to do this year? Jump out of an airplane, go on a cruise, or take pottery classes? Please do share!

2010 Goals: Hair

Dear 2010,

Please be gentle on me unlike your predecessor (2009). Word on the street, is that you are merely for wishful thinking but I would like to think otherwise. I have carefully planned and awaited your arrival. My list is simple yet complex, in it's own right. One of the few things I ask for this year, is fabulous hair, which is not much. Tracee Ellis and Corrine Bailey Rae have mastered the art of fabulous natural hair, so I would like to follow in their footsteps. Please.

Signed,

Tired and confused natural hair member of almost 3 yrs.

2009 Review: My Favorite Rihanna Looks

2009 filled with Rihanna moments, both in the fashion world and her personal life. It seems she used the craziness to catapult herself to a new dynamic fashion wise. There have been some fashion choices that made me scratch my head but one thing we can all agree upon, she definitely was not boring. It was hard to come up with only 10 (in no particular order, of course) looks that I loved but here they go:

One of the things that I love about Rihanna is her accessories and makeup!
