It’s been a year…

September 21, 2022, a day I'll never forget. My mama quietly departed this place and made her grand entrance in heaven. This place just hasn't been the same without her. Some days are better than others, and all days I just miss her. The thing about the last time is you never know when the... Continue Reading →

Everything old is new again

Hey y'all! Remember the time I told y'all about a vintage Louis Vuitton bag I bought (first time buying second hand) and I was really thrilled with my purchase?? Whelp the strap broke. And it broke at one of the most inconvenient times! We were just about to get off the airport shuttle going to... Continue Reading →

Great way to try many fragrances on the cheap

Hey y’all! Hope all of my fellow hunker downers are doing well. Speaking of hunker downers, do yourselves a favor and follow Leslie Jordan on IG. His videos keep me in stitches! Anyway, I’m still over here ordering the most random of things. Today my perfume sampler arrived. I have seen these in Sephora before... Continue Reading →

Chic low-cost wedding 101

It's been a busy past few weeks. I got married on November 22, and it was the best day ever! We wanted a small, intimate wedding, with family and close friends. Also, no wedding party, just us.

I gave myself a chemical peel

I turned 40, and developed a slight obsession with skincare products! I'm determined to look as young as I can, for as long as I can. I've spent a small fortune trying new things, some I love and some not so much. A few weeks ago, I saw another blog where someone had tried an... Continue Reading →

My experience with box braids

Hey y'all! I just took out my box braids today. I kinda miss them and I kinda don't. Feels good to be able to feel my scalp again, and eventually rub my fingers through my hair...can't do that quite yet because my fingers keep getting caught in the tangles 🙂 But, since it was my...

Nestle splash review

It's no secret that I love water, like it's weird that I love it so much! When people say water is nasty, I look at them like they have three heads. But I have to admit I get a little tired of it sometimes because it can be pretty blah! Sometimes I do add fruit... Continue Reading →

Empty container report: collagen 

Like I've said before, I'm a sucker for trying new beauty products, especially ones claiming to improve hair and skin! A couple of months ago, I saw a post on JJ Smith's Facebook page claiming that collagen could improve hair and skin, and lord knows my hair always needs help, so I figured why not...

Results of drinking apple cider vinegar for a month

For the last few years, I've been on a serious working out and eating healthier health kick. My endurance has improved, I've toned a little...but I wasn't losing much weight, which frustrated me to no end!!!! For years I've heard about people taking the Bragg brand of apple cider vinegar and losing weight. So, about... Continue Reading →
