One of the best things about attending an art school is seeing all of the unique styles people wear. I think dressing yourself is such a huge art form, showing people a taste of your creative mind and what you can mix and match together. During my time at the Art Institute, one girl really stood out to me...
Read MoreIf you haven't already figured it out, I love makeup. I love the different brands and their unique formulas, I love testing out different colors on my face, I love the feeling I get after looking at myself in the mirror and seeing the final look. I. Love. Makeup. However, instead of buying millions of different products and seeing which ones I like best, I usually go to the ones recommended to me by friends or beauty sales associates. This word of mouth advertising makes me feel more confident that the products they're recommending are great quality, must-have products. Well, now it's my turn to recommend a product to all of YOU...
Read MoreGrowing up, I didn’t really know what I wanted to be. I had thrown out different career titles here and there, mostly to please my parents. However, I wasn’t entirely sure where my life would lead me, where God would lead me...
Read MoreThe past few weeks have been crazy busy for me (I feel like all I talk about in my posts lately are how busy I am. LOL). With graduation around the corner, attending classes and being a working girl, my schedule is chalk full of things to do and places to be. Although I would rather be busy than be doing nothing at all, it can get too much sometimes...
Read MoreI am exhausted, just down right tired and burned out. It's almost as if I just go through the motions of my days without really putting myself in the moment. I mean, I know I'm alive, but I am not well. I know I'm living, but I'm not present. Mentally, emotionally, and physically, I am just drained...
Read MoreWhen I was about 10 years old, I received my first curling iron and I was hooked on the concept of having curly hair. It's not that I hate my straight hair, but I loved how soft waves added a little something special to my everyday look. Even at a young age, I realized the magic of curling hair. Now at the age of 24, I still hold on to that concept, which is why is pretty much why I curl my hair almost everyday. With that being said, I've pretty much mastered how to curl my hair and make it hold its shape all day long. I usually go with soft waves versus tight Shirley Temple curls. I love soft luscious curls that have slight volume and don't look too done. With countless compliments and questions on how exactly I do my hair, I decided to create this hair curling tutorial for you all...
Read MoreAlthough I LOVE getting my nails done, sometimes the after effect can be a hassle, especially when I get the gel polish. Since gel polish only lasts about two-three weeks, there's upkeep that needs to be done to keep my nails looking flawless...which means I need time...and money...which are two things I don't have a lot of right now. Haha ! I got my nails done a couple weeks ago and recently noticed that my two weeks of gawking at my nails in awe were just about done. They were starting to grow out and that unattractive space between my gel polish and my cuticle were forming. Instead of sulking at how bad my nails were starting to look, I decided to do something about it and remove the gel polish at home, DIY style...
