Fashion | Where I Found My Cat Eye Glasses

Hello Beauties!

Throughout the past few weeks, I have gotten compliments as well as questions on the cat eye glasses I've been wearing.  Many people do not know this, but I do wear prescription glasses; however, I mainly wear them while driving.  Since I will soon be getting a new pair of prescription glasses, I wanted to try the cat eye look to see how it would fit me.  What better place to go than EBay to find an affordable pair of non-prescription glasses?

Fashion | My Anthropologie "Droolry" (Jewelry) Wish List

Hello Beauties!

If I were ever in the dictionary, there would be a definition to right of my name stating, "statement necklace lover."  Without a doubt, lipstick and statement necklaces are my thing.  I feel they are the perfect addition to an outfit and can make even a t-shirt and jeans chic.  When I recently won the Real College Student of Atlanta's Anthropologie Giveaway, I knew immediately what I would be looking for...

Beauty | REvive Vitality Drink Review & Giveaway

Hello Beauties!

After being at Blogalicious and the Natural Star Natural Hair Expo, I am beginning to realize that there are times in my life where I am constantly on the go.  When I am on the go, I need a simple way to keep my energy level boosted.  I typically make sure to drink water and take a multivitamin.  Although that often keeps my energy level boosted, sometimes I need an extra push to make it through the day.  With this in mind, I'm glad to be reviewing REvive Vitality Drink.  What is REvive?  We're going to break it down and give you a chance to try it in this post!

Natural Hair | Coloring My Natural Hair

Hello Beauties!

Before coloring my hair a few weeks ago, I hinted in a previous post that my thoughts had been focusing on color.  Years ago, color was my thing.  Before receiving the keratin treatment that prompted me to return to my hair's natural state, highlights were my staple.  After going natural, I was primarily focused on hair health and growth.  Now that I'm back to short hair, don't care, I wanted something to take it up a notch.
