WE ARE Beautiful!!!

I know how some of these blogs can be.  Some of them are perfect.  They have the perfect lighting for photos, perfect outfits for post, perfect make-up etc.  It can be a bit intimidating. Trust me.  I think that is part of the reason I haven't posted to many outfit posts.  I wanted to but I think that I may have become so unappreciative that I felt that I wasn't "perfect" enough.  Unappreciative of my own beauty. My own personal style. My own personality.  So with that I think the re-focus of this blog will be to be an inspiration to others and to myself.  I will post imperfect pictures, with imperfect outfits and bad lighting with not so great make-up.  This was my initial plan when i started this blog but like i said i got drunk with the notion that I was supposed to look, be, and come across a certain way.  I promise to be myself.

So how about for the new year we make a resolution together to be comfortable in our own skin. Not let society dictate and determine how we see ourselves.  Lets be who we were put on this earth to be.  OUTSTANDINGLY BEAUTIFUL.

Materalistic Monday!!!

With so much happening in the past weeks and with the coming weeks I have really been laxed with blogging.  I don't want to be trust me.  I want to be more focused on blogging.  I need to be more focused on blogging.  I think I need to realize that letting people in is not going to be a bad thing.  So here is the first MM of the year for spring.  Hope you all enjoy.

New Year's Goals & Solutions

OMG!!! I haven't posted in forever.  I have been kind of out of it since my surgery and trying to get back into the swing of things  has been a challenge.  So for the few of you that still come by to check on me Thanks!  All is well. 

I made a promise to myself that I would attempt to blog almost everyday.  It allows me to step away from reality, if only for a few moments.  Have you ever had that feeling that your not sure what is going to happen, but you know something is coming? Be it good or bad. You just know?  That's how I have been feeling lately.  Perhaps I'm excited for the new things I have planned for this year.  No New Year's Resolutions!  Only Goal & Solutions!  I have made a list of the things I would like to accomplish for this year.  After writing this list I realized that all of the things were very easy to accomplish.  I even found a method of accomplishing any all goals. 

Confidence + Discipline - Fear = Awesomeness!

I have to attempt all of this with out fear of failure, confidence in myself and discipline to keep at it until I succeed.

1. Blog almost every day
2. Travel as much as my pockets allow
3. Remain calm
4. Remain TRUE to myself (this one should be #1)
5. Treat others how I know I would want to be treated
6. Learn to sew (Got the sewing machine just need to learn  how to work it)

See not to many just a few.

What are your New Year's Goals & Solutions?

Im Back

Not sure if anyone cares but I am sorry that I have been away.  I had a small surgery that has kept me out of it for the past couple of weeks.  The last time I stayed in a a hospital overnight was when my son was born and he is just about a teenager.  Aside from the lady yelling at the top of her lungs in the room across from mine and the dismal food, I am soooo glad to be home.  All is well on the home front. 

Weather in the Bay is so unpredictable so when we have 75degrees or higher, after having a week of gray skies and sprinkles, I like to get out.  I decided to head to Lake Merritt to enjoy the view and the breeze.

Hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend.

And I'm Back...

So Lately....

I have been wanting to get my nails done (acrylic/gel).  I go through these moods where I want semi-long acrylic nails and when I want my little nubs.  I enjoy both.  With the acrylic I feel that they add a bit of femininity to my daddy look-alike hands (thanks pops!) with my own nails I  have the freedom to change the polish and be creative on my own. 

I found a few designs that i liked (I may not presonally wear but I like).  The goutier the better!

 What do you think?

I really like these.  pic via here

 Nail design has come full circle from late 80's and early 90's.  I love when designs do that.  When I decide on which design works for me and my style I will do a post. 

Hope your having a wonderful day!

Simply Put!

The boo and I went out to dinner and decided to stop and catch a few pics before we were too full to focus.   Again I can't get enough of the Bay Area.

Sunday Grown-Up Brunch

This Sunday was a perfect day.  I got to enjoy not only great food, but great company and great weather.  If your from the Bay Area then you probably know about Lakeshore Cafe.  They have one of the best breakfast, brunch, and lunch selections.  After eating we decided to take a few pics.  Hope you like.
