Oh, hello. Have we met before? Only in my dreams, you say? I suppose you're right. Maybe we can discuss turning those dreams into reality? That villa in Italy won't be the same without you. (By the way, you're buying us a villa in Italy.) Happy Wednesday, party people. He's mine. Onwards and upwards...
Meanwhile, in Paris…
...I don't know what it is about Parisian doors. Maybe it's the promise of all the macarons that await me inside? Could it be the handsome homme who awaits me inside, armed with the yummy crepes that he made me for brunch? Or maybe it's the lovely architecture of the les portes themselves, so artistic and majestic and ready to …
calling all big heads.
Let's get right to it, shall we? For most of my days on this planet, I've been reminded by my mother about how this thing that sits on my neck nearly cost her her life. If you have a large coconut, I'm sure you've heard similar stories from your mom. And lest you think Mom …
She Twirls.
15 seconds of Queen Lupita twirling during her InStyle magazine shoot, as posted by her highness on her Instagram page. Take in all that African Girl Wonder. Breathe it in. And then find an empty office somewhere and do your own Friday twirl. Slow motion would even be better. Bon weekend, dear readers.
because it’s Wednesday.
Am I the only person who chooses to greet the day with this face? (I'm OK with that.) Happy Wednesday, party people. Onwards and upwards...
Fabu Fashion Thursday: Jump, Jump
My love affair with jumpsuits continues. I went ahead and wore one to work today. Here it is, compliments of an empty ladies washroom. So until today, it's never dawned on me to wear a jumpsuit to work. I don't know why. I just never thought of it. Perhaps it didn't strike me as providing the …
Fabu Fashion Monday: Sunday Edition
Hi, y'all. Welcome to Monday. Let's move on before I complain about Mondays, shall we? Last night, a lifelong friend of mine and all around amazing woman/entrepreneur held her second annual International Natural Hair Awards (www.naturalhairawards.com). My mom and I attended and we had a blast. I knew, a few days into the event, that I …
A Crochet Story.
Did she learn to crochet, those who don't know me may wonder? No, dear ones: the girl who failed Home Economics in the seventh grade (true story) became the same woman who drove home in tears a few years ago after a sewing class. So when it comes to anything having to do with a …
things i currently need #7
There's a blizzard a-comin'. My metropolitan area and the rest of the East Coast is expected to receive more than 24 inches of snow starting tomorrow. So without further ado, here's what I currently need: You, Seychelles. I need you. And you, too, Santorini. Let's not forget about you, my dear Maldives. What was that, my sweet Santorini? …
Meanwhile, in Paris…
...Les petites lovers of art at the Louvre. I love this into infinity.
