I have so much to tell you...

I know im neglectful. Sorry, My life is a war-zone!! But guess what? My birthday just passed... I had to evaluate the direction my life was going in. Gotta consolidate loans, I want my villa in another country, and a business... a few of them!! WHERE TO START?!

The interviewing process is kind of nerve racking. First there are a million questions, then you wait around for someone to call you back, or not!

What i really want
to do is travel the world for a year, between Brazil, Cuba and Dominican Republic. But who has the money for that? And starting a business isnt cheap either... suggestions?

Well until then, I will occupy my traveling fetish with the little things in life: creative art, music, ppl watching and dreams of grander!!

Te Amo, does mean I love you

Okay, Rhianna does it for me. As much as everyone has to say about her, I love how she is just border-less. Her music doesn't follow any one genre and her videos push the definition of -classy, sexy, cool- every time!


Awesomely cool...

I found this video on Fashion Copious and i thought it was just so b-boy cool. It features the likes of JT, the Editor of Vogue, models... and amazing background music. This is the coolest video I have seen this year!! ...It reminds my of Chicago's nite life.

The song is Elbow, Grounds for Divorce... :-D

How to do a sew in weave...

Okay, I know... this is very urban, BUT damnit this is what we have to go thru to look fly!! First braid, then sew; $20 or better / pack or hair (for that Saturday nite $150+ / pack). So think of all the money you save when you do it your self!!

This video is only 8 minutes long, but trust me it took her at least 3 hours to braid all of that.
THAT is why black women are always ducking and become hostile when people try to touch our hair...

1. We dont want you to know whats under there
2. our head is probably throbbing and
3. we dont need you trying to put your fingers thru our hair cause if you break a track, we WILL be fighting...

So do your self a favor, and just look from afar!! lol

This lady, Ms Chanda, is the truth. She seems to do the best tutorials FOR ME to follow what she i doing. And she does a variety of styles!! Enjoy!

My favorite places to shop (on a budget)

I am creating an app for the iGadgets, and thought it would be nice to link my favorite sites to shop. I always go to Polyvore for inspiration when I dont know what to wear... but when I have a closet full of nothing to wear, that means its time to go shopping!! Enjoy!
















Amazon and Endless.com for shoes... fyi!!

Condo in Dominican Republic

Im anxiously awaiting my villa in another country. Maybe when they open Cuba up for ALL Americans that will be the spot for me!! But until then I will dream about life in Dominican Republic...

Would you pay $1200 for Jimmy Choo's??

I'm a fan of high end fashion, but I don't agree with the price tag. I mean how much does it cost to make a pair of shoes... (but secretly if I had it, i would buy 3 or 4... or 10 pair!!) .. c'mon, Its Jimmy Choo!
