Monday’s Muse—Kimberly Elise


Hola!  Welcome to another work week!  Today’s muse is gorgeous actress Kimberly Elise.  She has been in tons of movies (Set It Off comes to mind), tv shows (Grey’s Anatomy is one) and now new VH1 drama Hit The Floor.  I have always admired her down to earth personality, as she is a woman that knows who she is and is very comfortable in her own skin.  Peep her beautiful tresses as well, she can rock a mean fro or flowing coils.  Lovely!

Looking fab at a party for her new VH1 show Hit the Floor.

Product Review—Miss Jessie’s Jelly Soft Curls


Hola!  Feliz Cinco de Mayo!  Miss Jessie’s released a new product—Jelly Soft Curls a few weeks ago, the inner pj (product junkie) in me couldn’t resist therefore I caved and bought it!  In the past I’ve gotten pretty decent results from their products so I was hoping that this wouldn’t be any different.  They say that this is “for people who want poppin curls without the crunch” and the directions for use are: Evenly distribute a capful or more to damp , freshly washed,  conditioned and detangled hair. To dry: either air dry or use a diffuser attachment on a blow dryer.

WnG using Jelly Soft Curls.

I washed and applied it to my hair as directed.  The consistency was like any other gel, the smell was very similar to their Pillow Soft Curls (almost like fabric softener) and my hair was super shiny.  Once completely dry (air dry) I fluffed to add extra volume and swept my hair to the side for a bit of sass.

2nd day hair using Jelly Soft Curls.

The second day hair was just as good as the first.  All I did was spritz a bit of water to reactive the product, my curlz were poppin and I had even more volume than before.  Boom!  On a scale of 1-10 I give this a 8, as I will definitely be adding this to my rotation.  Will you be giving this a try?  If you have already then please share your experience!

Target x Sam & Libby Team Up


Hola!  Once again Target bringing you another collaboration this time it is with Sam & Libby (economical brand of Sam Edelman).  They announced it back in November however the line will be debuting this Sunday, May 5th.  Surprisingly there hasn’t been a lot of buzz about this duo, nonetheless it is happening and I am pretty excited.  As the temps continue to climb I’ve been on the prowl for cute sandals; now I can take my pick from gladiators, flats, platform heels and thong sandals.  The prices are right too starting at only $25……perfect!  Take a peek and let me know if you will be picking up a pair.  Enjoy!

Beyonce- Standing on the Sun (H&M Commercial)


Hola peeps!  Let’s just call 2013 Beyoncé‘s year because she has definitely been owning it since the beginning.  It start with awards shows, to the Superbowl, world tour and now campaign ads, specifically H&M.   We all new months ago that she was the new celeb face for their summer swimwear ads but now she has a video well a commercial for it as well.  Yes they have collaborated with many stars in the past but I really think that this one is going to take them over the top and will bring more traffic to their stores.  Peep the video and let me know what you think.  I am digging the dark hair on Bey she should change it up more often.  Enjoy!
