I haven’t written a shopping post in a while. It’s not that I’ve stopped shopping or I haven’t bought anything, I’ve just been too lazy to take pictures. Hey! Honesty is the best policy right? Thankfully, I’m not a fashion blogger because it would be an epic fail on my part. I give mad love [...]

What’s In My Little Black Bag: New Year, New Stuff A New Year means new stuff! Well at least that’s how I justify my recent purchases. It’s something about the beginning of the year that makes me want to shop. Now that I think about it, the sun rising in the morning makes me want [...]

I remember my very first Coach purse like it was yesterday. My mom purchased it for me and had it engraved with my initials.

Right now it’s 10:20 pm and it’s still 90 degrees outside, no complaints here. Today, I got the pleasure of sampling some great scents from [...]

As I sat here gathering all of the cute fashion finds for this post, a thought hit me. I honestly can’t remember the last time I left my home on a Sunday. In fact, the last time I remember leaving my house on a Sunday afternoon was when I checked out a movie with a [...]

This weekend proved to be very busy in Chicago with the NATO summit in full swing. I’m not into politics at all, I actually had no idea what the NATO summit was all about. Thanks to Google and Wikipedia I now know. The summit is being held at the McCormick Place Convention Center which is [...]

Nina Simone actually inspired this post, I’ve had a good week and yes, I am feeling rather good.
