OOTD: Tuesday Black Affair



I've decided to play dress up yesterday. I enjoyed a lovely weekend with my girlfriends. It was nice to relax before embarking on the notorious week ahead of me. Is it Friday yet? Smile 
Well, to get these shots was hard work. I’m no photographer! I couldn’t find my tripod so I had to use my piano and angle the camera right, put the timer on and then run into position for the picture. I laughed at myself at times, but it was all fun!
Well, check out my OOTD below!

Miley Cyrus Inspired OOTD


I decided to play dress up yesterday! My awesome friend who is killing the game with his videos came over from Atlanta, so I had to get him to do a video for me. We did a OOTD concept and he did an amazing job! He taught me a few things, so for upcoming videos I think I’ll be straight… well, let’s hope!

Check out my Miley Cyrus inspired OOTD!

But… Make Up Expires Too!

Happy Monday!

I’m currently in Toronto, my hometown and man it is hot! I am trapped in my house today because of how hot it is outside. I was going through my Tumblr dashboard, a daily routine, and stumbled on something great that I had to share with you all! Ladies, this one is for you. As I go through my makeup and decide what and what not to keep, these picture messages really came in handy. I think they’ll come in handy for you too! Check it out!

A Woman of Versatility

 

hair post

I am a woman of versatility. I like to switch it up. For months, I have been thinking about cutting off my hair and starting over. But, I know I would enjoy it for a couple of months and then holler for my hair to grow back. Also, I wasn’t sure how the short haircut would fit me. I’ve been told I could probably do anything except going short. But, I wanted to see for myself. I wanted to try the short haircut, but still be able to rock my length. So, I looked up a few short hairstyles and fell in love with the pixie cut. I went to my hairdresser and got a customized wig, so I could switch it up whenever I wanted to. I absolutely love the cut and this has inspired me to eventually get the big chop!

Oui! Oui!

look of the day

As I scrolled through my Tumblr dashboard yesterday, the reoccurring pictures of Rihanna had me wanting more. From her Farrah Fawcett inspired hair to her white Chanel suit, I was loving it! Then, I saw her outfit of the night and I was amazed! I love the way this jumper is hugging her body, showcasing her “Bajan” shape. Every time I think she outdid her self, she keeps surprising me with more and more!

OOTD: Graduation Weekend!


I am officially an alumnus of Oakwood University. Yay! I've graduated! I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Pre-Law, a concentration in Political Science and a minor in Business Management.
I no longer will be living with my two Purple Lipstick besties, Rachael and Kalila. But, don't worry, Purple Lipstick will still be functioning! We ain't going nowhere! But, you will gain a deeper understanding of us individually as we embark on different paths. I will surely miss my girls and will see them from time to time. So, look out for collaborative posts of the Purple Lipstick gang when we reunite again!
Graduation went by so fast. It was one of the most important and greatest day of my life. Four years of toil and labor has finally ended. Well, although I wore a robe for the entire graduation weekend, I still "glammed" up underneath. After all, it is my graduation!

Rihanna for River Island

In recent fashion news, Rihanna has just unveiled the collection she designed for UK brand, River Island. The collection of about 55 pieces ranges from tops to jeans, hats and even shoes too.  Rihanna is often highlighted for her unique fashion choices, so it was very interesting to see what she would come up with when designing a line of her own.




The line was previewed during London Fashion Week 2013 and was officially released to the public this past Monday. I was really anxious to see what Rihanna had created and couldn't wait until then, so I checked out the show on River Island's Youtube.


Once monday hit, I immediately went online to see what else was there and also what the prices were saying lol. The clothes were all up, and the prices seem to be mostly above average River Island prices ranging from $45-$350. 



Some of the items are basics, but still nice at the same time. In general the items are cute, chic and seem to be selling out fast! All I'm saying is I'd rock them lol. Here are some pieces that stood out to me.








                                               

It's super exciting to see Rihanna doing big things. River Island even hints that she may do more for them in the future so we'll definitely keep her on our radar.

Spring Breakers

First off I have to say at&t's hotspot is the truth!  I'm not big on road trips but being able to blog and watch Netflix is making this drive go by so fast!
Jode- Leigh  and I are off to Florida for spring break. Rachael has a convention to go to, so she couldn't come :'(
But it's all good, she told us to live it up for her!!!  Here are a few pics of what we wore today.
Look out for more pics of what we're wearing this week!

Xoxo,
