Huggies® Jeans Diapers Hit the Streets!




When in Kroger's shopping I came across the cutest little thing. I saw jean diapers. The diapers were made to look as if your baby was wearing jean shorts instead of diapers. They are super cute. Almost makes you want to have a baby just to buy them...well not really...lol. I have attached one of the advertisements of the jean diapers so you can see them. Hope you enjoy. : )

SATC 2 Premiere






I was honored to attend the sneak preview of SATC in Columbus, Ohio, at the Easton Towne Center. I was totally excited when I received my ticket. This was the first time I had ever been to the movie theater by myself so I was terrified at the same time. Sooooo many emotions but I figured who needs to company to see one of their favorite series, not I....Anywho....I would recommend this movie to all the fans. It was great seeing the ladies come back together to do another one. I was under the assumption that Jennifer Hudson was going to be in this sequel but I am sorry to say she was not. I thought the movie was overall good. I did not like it as much as the first one. I can't say too much sense it isn't out but make sure you go see it then come back and tell me what you think.

Smooches!!

Operation Carrie Bradshaw





How to take Carrie's style and make it your own


Hey you SATC fans, if you are like me you have been waiting for the sequel of SATC to come out to see the fabulous fashions of Carrie Bradshaw. I absolutely love the outrageous fashions of the Bardshaw character.  Some may find her outfits overwhelming but if it is you can always take a piece from it and make it your own.

Lets take this wonderful vintage newspaper dress of Dior's 2000 Fall line. I think it is a dress that would make you stand out in the crowd but it may be a little much for some of you.  However the style of the dress would look amazing on pretty much every body type. Put it with a shoe that adds that pop of color and you are good to go. Now for you stylistas you think this dress is yummy. I would have put it with a red, yellow or royal blue shoe if I wore it. But I love love love the Christian Louboutin open toe booties Carrie is wearing.









The J'adore Dior 8 t-shirt is going to be a hot commodity this s/s.  Everyone wants to find one. My guess to have it to wear to see the new movie. The ball gown is a little much but we all know that is totally Carrie Bradshaw and only someone little and petite can get away with that. However ladies we can snatch the t-shirt pair it with some skinny jeans or boyfriend jeans and throw some heels on with a cute leather jacket.






Everyone loves the white Halston dress. There is nothing I would change about this look. You can add jewelry and shoes that make it your own. This particular dress would look so cute with pair of gladiator shoes for a more casual look then a strappy sandal to dress it up. The blue Halston dress is just as cute. It is very feminine. Like the other dress this one can be paired with cute flats or strappy heels.





I love the peach Halston dress. The assymetrical dress one shoulder dress is very trendy and fab. This dress looks amazing with a strappy sandal. You can add your flavor with special pieces of jewelry of your taste. I would piece the dress with gold accessories and strappy gold shoes.



Fab Find: Guess what ladies I found an inexpensive version of the white Halston dress. I found the similiar dress on http://www.asos.com/ for 43.96 however it only comes in pink or navy.

Versace Shoes Hot or Not????

I have seen these Versace S/S 2010 collection shoes on two celebrities in one day.  I have mixed emotions on the shoes. Trina had them on for her interview on 106 and Park and while on Concreteloop.com I saw Ciara in them. I did not like them with Trina's dress but thought they looked cute with Ciara's outfit. Anywhoo...who do you think wore the shoes best? Would you pick the shoes out if you seen them in the store?

Have you ever wanted to gather your girlfriends together and have a private shopping event as seen on television shows like Real Housewives of Atlanta or Basketball Wives. Thanks to Arden B it can be done. I was uber excited to receive an invite to one of my favorite stores for a private shopping party. This event was hosted by Pink Diamond PR, founder Carlita Pitts. This was the first fashion party held at the Easton Towne Center location. I must say everything was well organized. All of the guests received a 15% discount off of the full purchase and the extra bonus was that we had the special of buy one item get the second for 15 dollars. Talk about major savings. The hostess receives 25 dollars towards their purchase. Interested in having a party of your own yet. Wait there is more....

During this event there was a mini fashion show using a couple of Carlita's friends, which included store owners Adrienne Ruff of Step-N-Out Boutique, and Deepika Benjamin of Shoetique. The fashion show included the new spring/summer looks. Take look at some of the looks from the fashion show.

Primer experiment #1: L'Oreal Paris Studio Secret Magic Perfecting Base a Hit or Miss???

Recently my friend and I tried this product to see if it was worth buying or not. I will start by telling you that my friend is caucasian. I wanted to see if it would work differently on different skin types. Frist Heather used the base, came to work and no one noticed a difference. She was upset that her skin did not feel any softer nor was it easier to apply her foundation. I tried the base a couple of days later and instead of using a powder foundation I used the press powder foundation to see if tat would make a difference. Unfortunately the base did not make my skin any softer nor was it easier to apply my foundation. I would suggest you try the base for yourself to see if you like it but for Heather and I it was a definite MISS.

Last Minute Mother's Day Gift Ideas

Okay so if you are like me you wait until the absolute last minute to purchase your mother's day gift. It is hard to purchase things for people who do not really need anything. I am not a fan of gift cards for parents or siblings because I feel they are not personable. I feel we should choose a gift that is from the heart and well thought out. The normal gifts are flowers (boring), perfume, and clothes. Let's be creative people. This year think of something that your mother would never think you would get her.

Here are some of my ideas...

Have a makeup party for your mom and all of her friends

Have a personal shopping event at one of her favorite stores if offered

Redecorate one of the rooms in her home

Take her to create her own fragrance

Hire a glam squad to make her feel like a celebrity for a day

Spa package

Day of wine tasting

Let's make our moms feel special. Take the time to think of something unique. Hope this helps.

Hot Spring Shoe Finds

Gladiators, Ruffles and Flats oh my. You all know I absolutely love my shoes and I told myself that I was going to avoid writing about shoes this month, but by request of my lovely friend Rosalyn Coston, here is another blog about the shoes I love. She wanted to know what was going to be hot for this Spring/Summer. Let's see it is pretty much everything that we were wearing last Spring/Summer with different colors or revamped. For example gladiator shoes are back. They are the perfect shoes that can be worn with jeans, capris or dresses. Next I love love love the ruffle shoes. They are the perfect very feminine touch to an outfit. The come in the form of closed toe and open toe. Flats are the ultimate cute and comfy shoe. They, like gladiators look great with dresses, jeans, skirts and capris. Next trend, any type of shoe with embellishments or studs on them. Kitten heels are the pumps that have the lower heel on them. Kitten heels are super cute and are perfect for the ladies who cannot wear three or four inch heels. Let's talk wedges next. Wedges are not my favorite but I know people like them so grab a pair of fabulous looking wedges. I just don't know how to walk in wedges or I would have some. Next...shoes with cuffs. This is your edgy shoe look for the spring. I don't know if I can personally get with this look but I will include the oxford. This is supposed to be hot this season. We shall see. Ok here are my favorite affordable picks thus far for the season. Tell me what you think.

Got Shapewear???

Shapewear...I know I know you do not even want to think about it. When I think of shapewear the words that come to mind is UNCOMFORTABLE, TIGHT, IRRITATING, AND HOT. However as a woman we need to have at least 3-4 shapewear pieces in our wardrobe. When it comes to items like this I prefer not to spend a lot of money however shapewear is a piece that you need to invest in. I have purchased shapewear in the price range of 35-45 dollars and to me they did not do a good job holding everything in. I realized that I will need to pay more money to get the item that will do the job I want it to do.



Some women might think that shapewear is only of the women with curves but shapewear is for everyone. It helps smooth everything out under your clothing. The perfect undergarment makes your shape look flawless. I feel like I need to share with you the items that you need to purchase if you do not already have them. I will only show you certain pieces I will leave it to you to shop around to find the one that fits into your budget.

1. The Control Thong
This piece is a panty that is worn that does not show panty lines when worn under jeggings, leggings, pencil skirts and skinny jeans. I found this item on http://www.barenecessities.com/TC-Fine-Intimates-No-Show-Thru-Shapewear-Thong-_product_TCFineShapewear430_,search,.htm. The undergarment is only 21.00 and comes in black and nude.




2. Camisole Shaper Slip Dress
This item is an slip to be worn under your dresses. This slip provides moderate control that will hide all of the flaws that could be seen when wearing a form fitting dress. I found this item on http://www.barenecessities.com/Yummie-Tummie-Shaping-Slippie_product_YummieTummieSD1042_,search,.htm. The cost of this item is  68.00. It comes in the colors of black and nude.





3. Body Smoothing Camisole
This item can be worn everyday to slim down your tummy area and uplift your bustline at the same time. Wear this under t-shirts, button up shirts, dresses, just about everything. I found this piece on http://www.barenecessities.com/SPANX-Hide--Sleek-Body-Smoothing-Criss-Cross-Camisole_product_SPANX223_,search,.htm.
Cost for this item is 45.00
Available colors are black and nude




Let's have our bodies look flawless like the celebrities.

Amazing Runways

OMG...I am so fascinated with Chanel's Fall/Winter 2010 runway.  The runway had a glacier in the middle with water surrounding like it was melting. It was beautiful. I will let the pictures speak for themselves. Please check out the video feed on http://www.chanel.com/
