Pop Valentine...

Happy Valentine's Day Everyone!!!


Well, I must say, I don't the day because I've had some seriously bad V-Days happen to me and because I'm forever single but I'm super cool. I had fun Monday with the boys making their Valentine's treats for preschool( you gotta start early...or you'll be up to midnight the night before). Plus, I've almost spent most of my income tax on things for the house( I got a Calphalon knife set...it's beautiful and Le Creuset Dutch Oven Pot) so I feel spoiled.:)

Did ya'll get you Sephora catalog this week? I want this Pop Beauty Lid Neon palette but I don't know how "big" the color is going to be. I need "big" techno color for the spring. I'm loving that trend right now. Maybe I'll check it out at Sephora when I go to the WU Homecoming.

Yes... peeps, its that time of year, that Winthrop University Homecoming. It' s the last weekend of the month. It's also the CIAA Tournament Weekend in Charlotte that same weekend. Shoot, I kinda don't want to go, as usual. I get so frantic about seeing everyone and everybody, squeezing in some time to do everything from shopping, to the step show( which I ain't going to... to old to sit through four hours of stepping and kids be crazy at that thing!), eating, conversing, arguing....lol!

But I do miss my peeps and I need a little break.


Love ya'll much!!!

Missing Earrings: RG Grammy Fashion Wrap Up Part Two!

My Aunt BJ might jump me for this one. But her baby's mama was not fab in that dress.

Did anybody hear Jigga-mang say he had a two floor closet? Wearing that brooch...
It was good to see Ye' in that piece...RIP Mama Soror Donda.
My LS Shannan texted me and said,"Did Bey step on Tina in that performance?" lol! Check out www.realgossip101.blogspot.com for the real deal.:)
She looked BORING. Sorry, Fashion kids. And her hair fell just as flat.
That performance with The Time. I think the song, Please Don't Stop the Music is very Cece Peniston-esque, love it!! I like her hair here.

Missing Earrings:Rural Glamour Grammys '08 Fashion Recap...

Ok. I still feel like death warmed over from this bronchitis but I managed to stay up and watch the Grammy's and the red carpet. The boys and I had Grammy night Nachos( Hint of Lime Tositos, freshly made salsa and guacamole, sharp chedder, sour cream, sauted chicken in taco seasoning and tomatoes) and then I put them to bed!

Akon knew he was hot as hell in that heavy coat. He made my fever go up.

Ne-Yo could get the digits in this emsemble. He looked like he smelled good. lol!

Tasia and Dro looked like they were going to the Rock Hill HS prom. lol! Go Bearcats!( you know I love da Rock.) I can't get over that head of hers and the ashy lipstick she had on. Get a stylist, honey.

Bai Ling will come with the weirdness.

Cousins, this is a lesson for us all. A new Yaki Weave will do it for you everytime!!I likes her hair alot and surprisenly the dress, too. Listen, the Grammy's Fashion is all about fun and art and expression of self. Leave those black and navy dresses at home. That's what cousin Bey did. Thumbs up!
I adored the jewerly and the hair on Nelly. Not a fan of the dress on her though.

Corrine...do you ever wear earrings? She needs some jewelry. And why does she always wear a closed top shoe?
Ah...everyone's favorite Black It Girl, Rihanna. I must say, her head looked better in the back here and during that Morris Day and The Time performance( that was off the hook!!!). Cute Zac Posen dress, she needed some earrings too. You can tell this is first time at the short hair ball game.

Yep...Ludacris could get it. lol! Looking like full on sexiness.





Keyshia...Not a very flattering dress at the top on her and little bland for her flava. Even Mary J. bought fabulous back in the day. but I like her new hair color.

Look out for Part two!!!

What the Dr. ordered....

I'll admit Physicians Formula makeup line is very imtimidating to me. So much to choose from in such odd colors and odd packaging put me off. But this summer, I got addicted to the Mineral Wear Talc-Free Mascara they make, thanks to Miss Kim and decided to give them another try. My CVS has most of their line at 50-75% so I grabbed F.L.A.T. Mascara and the Baked Bronzer in Baked.

The Mascara is pretty great. It has a gel like formula and the brush is flat so no angling or no contortion of the hand, and was great. I did three coats and the my lashes look "Sexy succelent" as Mo' Nique would say.

The Baked Bronzer...I got to give it some time. I love the color but the sparkles were to sparkly, kind of like thick pieces of confetti sparkle. They need to be more finer. But Bronze color was perfect.

If your CVS has this sale...It's a perfect time to gave PF a whirl.

Any body have any favorite PF products? Let me know in the comments!

Sick Sundays...

Guess What?

I got bronchitis. And would like to dedicate this post to my two sick ass kids who gave it me. Mommy loves you!!! Now when they get sick I go into "take care of them" mode, but when I get sick, I curl up in the bed under 4 blankets wondering what to take. Interesting, sometimes you forget how to take care of yourself when you get sick.

I stumbled on this photo of Rihanna and Kelis at some pre-Grammy thingy one of my fav blogs, Crunk and Disorderly. I almost coughed up a lung while reading it! Love that polish Rih- Rih but get that nape shaped up, boo. Take some notes from my fellow fashionista, Lauren AKA Fashion Kitty.


Now, I wonder what polish that is? Any suggestions?
