Fall wine colored kisses

Fall is officially here..therefore it is that time to bring out the wine color lipstick **Kisses** I saw this tiered skirt on nastygal.com months ago, but all the size smalls were sold out. I came across it again at one of my favorite local boutiques, and of course with my luck there were only size mediums left. But guess what? That wasn't going to stop me this time. I'm a gal of alterations so I took this to my tailor and she did her best..although I may need to come back to have her take it up some more. Oh! The battles with my seamstress but that's another story..although I do appreciate all their hard-work.

The Best Accessory....

SMILE!!! :)

Last day of Summer

(Animal print shoulder cut-out top/AA Tube skirt/ UO Bowler hat/ HM Knee high socks)

So sad that summer is coming to an end but I must say, Fall is my favorite wardrobe season. Layers upon layers makes it the most creative season for me to play with. Can't wait to shop for more hats and tons of socks..ankle,knee high, thigh high..i LOVE them ALL!!

I die for cute pieces with amazing details. I find it super sexy when there is a subtle element of surprise to an outfit. The front looks like just a basic tank, but from the back there's the cut-out details...Pretty amaze-balls if you ask me:) Love, love, love animal print everything. They serve as a classic wardrobe piece for every season...perfect for this ongoing battle going from summer to fall. My advice-NEVER throw out your animal prints!

Frank Ocean-Thinking About You

Frank Ocean - Thinking About You (music video) from High5Collective on Vimeo.

Yes, of course
I remember, how could I forget?
How you feel?
And though you were my first time
A new feel
It won't ever get old, not in my soul
Not in my spirit, keep it alive
We'll go down this road
'Til it turns from color to black and white

Or do you not think so far ahead?
'Cause I been thinkin' 'bout forever

Seen a lot of postings of this track on FB and I am absolutely in love with it. Was told to watch out for this talented man months ago when he released his mixtape in March and wow!!! Now on heavy rotation!! I must say I am impressed. Frank Ocean has the ability to paint a picture with his lyrical content. It's pure poetry. You can literally see everything that's happening and feel the emotions running through you, and I haven't got that from music in a long time. The ability to FEEL is such a beautiful thing..because many people just don't allow themselves to open up and show what is really underneath all that jazz. So my point is my friends..Looking good and fancy is great..but remember that what lies underneath it all matters the MOST!! You ever been with that hot dude or chick at first glance, but as time went on realized there was no substance? And you're thinking "How did that happen?" lol! Or dated someone where you knew how you felt for him/her BUT never knew what they were feeling because they had a hard time giving any reassurance, so... when it ended, you're left with all these unanswered questions just because they lacked the ability to really FEEL and EXPRESS any emotions. I'm sure we've all been there. and well..Mister Frank Ocean knows all about it. My advice for the day..key word=SELFLESSNESS! Try to understand what the other person is feeling. Give someone a hug today and SHOW how much you love them. Everyone wants to feel validated and special!! SPREAD LOVE!! And don't forget to LOVE YOURSELF FIRST!!

The Veronicas are such talented twin sisters. I have a secret passion for singing (although you'll only hear me belting out my lungs in the privacy of my own home.) I love love love listening to singers harmonize and these two kill their harmony and are great acoustically.

Flipmode Squad brought down the house..sipping on some patron and spraying some champagne.

A friend of mine signed to SoSoDef invited me to Perez Hilton's VMAs weekend Charity event for GLSEN August 27. Fighting through an exhausting day, I mustered the strength to grab the tickets and make a last minute stop to the Wiltern Theater. Nothing beats live music, and a little mainstream variety never hurt anyone. Natalia Kills and Michelle Branch also performed but I didn't get a chance to take photos of them. Apparently everyone got the memo to wear black..hehe But hey, black is always classy! Always a pleasure and super humbling to support great causes. I believe we all have the power to make a difference..make an impact whether its on a micro or macro level..just dive into your strengths & do whatever it is you do to the best of your ability whenever you can, and even if it just changes one life,it still made a difference.
