My Oscar Red Carpet Picks

Posted in Celebs, Fashion by

Hola!  This is gonna be quick considering I didn’t watch one minute of the Oscars **sorry they tend to bore me**.  I was able to catch about 2mins of the red carpet—which was cool because the two women that I did see where the best dressed **IMO**. 

***GORGEOUS!!  She is working that new body—go Jenn!

 

***Mila Kunis looked so sweet and lady-like….love this dress and color!

 

***Beautiful couple of the night—Matthew and Camila….looked fab together!

That’s it for me, as everyone else looked drab and the same as always.  So did you watch, if so who were your red carpet faves??

WP Challenge Topic—When was your last act of kindness?

Posted in Uncategorized by

Hola mi gentes!  I hope that your weekend has been going great.  Today I just wanted to put the WP Challenge question **yes it has been awhile but i am still in it** out here—When was your last act of kindness?  With so much going on in the world today we all could use a bit of kindness in our lives. 

So what have  you done lately that was kind?  Perhaps gave up your seat on the subway to an elderly person or volunteered at a shelter, no matter the act just share the love :o

Friday Sass—Fashion Week Scene

Posted in Events & Happenings, Fashion, Friday Sass by

Hola! Happy Friday!  The last few days I have been going through my pics from NYFW and I have so many shots (thks to jstynze photography) of fashionable folks.  Plenty of fur, colors, prints, and designer labels were all out during the week so I had to share some of my faves with you guys.  The first pic is the scene from the Don’Christian Laurence show and all others are from The Designer’s Premier show.  Enjoy your sass!

Let Me Get Into Your Head….

Posted in Hair, Natural Hair by

Hola mi gentes!  I hope all is good.  I just wanted to pose a question to you today—how do you prefer to wear your natural hair?  Do you like for it to be loose and fancy free or twisted/braided/loc’d up?  Just a thought, as I have been doing more protective styles lately (mostly because of the freezing weather) but it is starting to grow on me more.  I consider myself to be more of a wash and go chica but I am enjoying the limited time I have to deal with my hair because it is either twisted or braided. 

What works for you and why?  Do tell….

Naturals in Ads

Posted in Shopping by

Hola!  Sorry that the posts are coming in a bit later but I am still trying to recuperate from all the madness of last week.  Today I took it easy by snacking way too much, taking a nap and browsing online, which brings me to the post at hand—naturals in ads.  I don’t know about you but I just get so excited when I see a naturally fly chica in ads and here one that I wanted to share from Bluefly.  Enjoy!
