Fierce & Fun Fashion Friday: Do We Not Love This?


Thank goodness for a Keren and Georgina for establishing a brand like Marchesa!
These ladies mean business!
When I saw this my first reaction was, "Woooooooowwww!"
I don't know if your eyes see what I'm seeing, but this is definitely a garment that qualifies for a "Fierce and Fun" post! Ow!
From the Spring 2010 Collection, it looks like a huge flower with brilliant definition- breath taking!
It's a dress that was incredibly placed together with each piece playing it's own role. The colors are quite the elegant blend that establishes the true beauty of a woman... and it look goods, honey!
I took a look at the Marchesa website and I was overwhelmed with many of the garments- stunning! I would wear every single one of those pieces and feel like a million bucks... Bravo Ladies! Bravo!

Get it! Ow!

Whyyyyyy?!
Why musk everyone misspell this worde?!
People, explain yurselfs!
Dude, sound that joint out, mmmkay?!
Let's do it together...

IN-CON-VE-NI-ENCE!
INCONVENIENCE!

You sea?!
Was that hard?!
Now write it!
Have you any idear how bad this looks?
Have you?!
Have you iny idear?!
And P.S. it's flipping annoyeng!
Handle it!

Let's play a game called, How Many Errors are in this Post?

Answer:

Now, it's time to call them out...

Oh, dear goodness...

I don't even know what this person was thinking when they started to spell this word! Sound it out! Use yourrr vowels, honey!
















Poor Walgreen's... What's funny about this is that it looks like there could've been a possibility that they misspelled the word wrong previously, cut that line off and then attached another line, with what?! A misspelled inconvenience! Arrrrrrgh!
What can you proscribe for the headache you just gave me reading this?!

Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds... Sippin' Cognac

Awwwh!
So, as many of you may know (or not), my bf engaged me on Thursday! Ow!
(Sigh)
I cannot explain to you the excitement that is flowing through my veins! It was truly an experience I will never forget! He's a great guy- one like I've never met. :0) Awh!
I am not going to sit here and share the private details, but I will, however let you see what she looks like.
She is definitely one of a kind... I named her, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds. She's a Cognac colored diamond. Boy, is she unique... She is definitely me! :0)
I have a beautiful life ahead of me! (smiley face)

Yikes!

Pardon me, people!
I know it's been a lil bit since I've posted something, but let me explain!
I have been quite occupied with the great things in life- not to say that you're not important!
Many amazing things have been coming my way and it has been quite a handful!
I am working on somethings to post for you and will be right back on it with a load for you to catch up on by this Thursday!
I hope you can hold on till then!

Kisses!

Well, hellooo, Mr. Presidents!

I saw this on msn.com.
Personally, I thought it was quite simple of the person who decided that it was necessary to alter the faces of our currency and Founding Fathers... It could have a baboon hugging a tree on a sweet Sunday afternoon, for all we care! It's cash money! There's nothing more required to appeal to us! Derrr!
My first response to seeing this? "Wow! Are you kidding me, right now? Are you really serious, right now?"

This says quite a bit about society, doesn't it?
Not only does it say you need to be skinny to be healthy, being beautiful will get you places further than your intellect will (but don't you forget your degree because we will deduct points from your final worth), but it subliminally presents ideas of what they believe "beauty" really is, in some of the most sneaky places! We see it everyday (or most days, anyways). We touch it! Flip it! Rub it down... Oh, nooooooo! Who would've thought to see such nonsense, here? Surely not me, but it doesn't surprise me one tid bit!
Don't play games with my money, honey!
I won't lie though, they are more attractive having had their paper surgery, but I am also not implicating in any form that there was something wrong with them before!
I feel it's petty and irritating!
Please tell me what you think of this...

Happy Birthday to Me!!! Ow!


So, as many of you may know, today was, in fact the birthday!
Sexytwenty7 (written and pronounced, just like dat!) Ow! Ow! Ow! Owwwwwrrrrrrrrow!
I was supposed to work today, but a kind friend, Nadia- who shares 4/20 as a birthdate, suggested I take off. And it was done!
It started off with my Mass Media Final... I'm kind of a genius. :0) What! What!
Afterwards, I went to pick up my niece, Leiara and we did go shopping! Ow!
Boyyy, lemme tell you how TIRED a sista like me is right now!
I decided to hang out with my niece all day long and to tell you the truth, I could've completed a triathlon and still had energy! I though I was a hand full! Whaaaaat! I ain't got nothing ( I know it's a double negative, but let's not get all bougie about it! I'm fittin' to tell you something!) on her! No-thiiiiiing! Lol!

"Mmmkay, well, what had happened was..." #1:
So, I have no shame, right about now.
I'm calling myself out!
Before we hit the Florida Mall, I was taking her out of her car seat and decided, hmmm... I shall change the diaper! Dunnn, nah, nahhhhh!
I put a jacket down to protect the leather seats and I went in. She had a flippin' Pull-Ups diaper on! Ok?! I wasn't trainnnnnnnned on how to remove this contraption! Arrrrright?! Why don't they put frickin' arrows to show you that the sides detach?! Huh?! I'm going to write a letter of complaint! Yo, I messed up my jacket, her shirt, and I waisted about 20 wet wipes! I was sweating profusely! Profusely, I tell you! PROFUSELY! And you KNOW I hate sweating! It took me near 10 minutes to change her diaper and get her presentable before I could even get her into the stroller! What the heck?! Oh, dear goodness (placing the back of my hand to my forehead)! Are you judging me?! Don't judge me!
Moving on...
I found it to be fun that everyone kept saying, "Ya'll have such big hair!" Lol! Well, thank you! I try and it comes naturally to her! :0)
I picked up a Sexy Mama dress that I will sashay in, right down the sidewalk and straight into Texas De Brazil with a group of old friends and new pals, on Thursday. Oh! Did I mention that my little-big bro bought it for me? Awwwh! I know! That was sweet of him, right? That's my brother! Ow! Hi5!

"Mmmkay, well, what had happened was..." #2:
So, after we finished eating at the food court I decided again... the diaper! We headed to the family restroom. This time I knew to rip the sides off instead of trying to pull it off like a regular underwear. Throw it in the bag! Or garbage, rather! Ow!
I decided I wasn't going to place her directly on that table thinkymabobber for the kids. I went and grabbed a butt-load of those tissue cover thingymajobbers that go on the toilet when you have to do a no. 2 and laid them all out on the table thingymabobber, so her skin wouldn't touch it.
And thennn... oh, sweet goodness...
She started crying so loud and hard!
I was shocked!
I turned to her and started asking what I did wrong!
She cried to me, "Auntie! I don't want to go to the doctor! Ahhhhhhhhh! Ahhhhhhhhhh!"
Poor girl. I messed her up for life!

Lord knows I gave it my all today... I truly really did. I'm not perfect. Just human.
I took a picture of us at the food court and oooooooh, WEEEE! That picture will never surface! OK?! We both look like we been through it. But truth be told, it was an experience to remember. I spent the entire day with my niece and that was a beautiful gift all it's own.
I'm blessed to have seen the light this morning.
I'm blessed to be loved and even more to have the ability and understanding to love someone else.
I love my life and I wouldn't trade it for the North Star.

Life is beautiful. Thank God. <3

Why Do Your Feet Smell Like Dat?!


Heaven forbid someone rolling through with these shoes on their feet!
Oh, dear goodness!
I couldn't imagine the level of rancid smell that would overcome us!
I am actually going to go wash my feet right now just because I feel like the picture of this footwear could, in fact, stink!!
Who in the eff would create such a hideous shoe?!
Someone please go find out and call them out!

I just got a headache!

Oh, my goodness...

Oh!
