OUTFIT OF THE DAY:

This outfit I wore to church. When My mother saw me, she was like "where'd you get that, you bought them together" lol. I had to say no, I bought my skirt probably a year prior to the shirt. And it matched perfectly with my gray colored pencil skirt...crazy right? The chiffon top I bought from G-stage and the pencil skirt from JCPenny. I added my orange satin pumps to finish the ensemble. (fyi...I cannot find satin pumps anywhere anymore....smh luckly I bought these). Hope ya'll enjoy!!

Hey Beauties!!

Hope everyone's weekend is going well! Beautiful Saturday we are having! Today I attended church and I just wanted to share a little bit of the message with ya'll. It was on "haters". Moreover, the story of Joseph. His brothers hated him and caused  many tribulations in his life. But through it all, Joseph remained faithful. Same with us. We may not like our jobs, situations, life, etc but not matter what always be the best that you could be in whatever you do because you represent Christ. And of course people will hate...the higher you go the more haters there will be. But it's the way you respond to haters that will determine how God will use you in your life. Obviously, he can't give give you more if you can't handle less.

So, how will you handle the " Haters"??

OUTFIT OF THE DAY:

Since it was a gorgeous day today, I decided to wear this shiny purple dress gifted (from my mother). Love the dress!! So sophisticated. Normally, I wear it with black or purple patterned pumps but today I wanted to add a little color. Hence, I paired it with ruby red opened toed pumps and my red clutch. Hope ya'll Enjoy!

Until Next time Beauties!!

Hey Beauties!!

HAPPY FRIDAY!!! Oh wow, I'm so glad it's the end of the week...I am sooo ready for the weekend :-P.  I have a Family BBQ on Sunday, and today is shopping day!! LOL. I'm going shopping for Ribs, Chicken, Veggie meat and fish (wow that's a lot) hope I have the energy for it. Hopefully, I'm able to take pictures of the dishes I will make. Busy day ahead of me...I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!

OUTFIT OF THE DAY:

Great day today. Not too hot and not too cold...just right for what I chose to wear. I'm incorporating "Fashion Challenge" post on Friday's now. Hopefully I'm able to keep up :-P. So today's Fashion Challenge is Chevron stripes. I've seen this dramatic diagonal pattern on the streets and blogs, very cute trend. Today I wore a Chevron striped tube top by Candies. I bought this top years ago, considered giving it away...and then didn't lol. The piece makes a strong statement because of the eye-catching Chevron stripes. So I paired my top with dark skinny jeans from G-stage and some  flat sandals from Reflections. Great outfit for going out for the day, hanging with friends or running errands. Enjoy!!

Until Next time Beauties!!!!

XOXO

Hey Beauties!!!

Happy Hump day! Hope all is going well. Today I was busy getting ready for the BBQ Im planning this weekend...and my oh my was it a hot day. California is really living up to its "sunny" weather this week. In other news, I'm super excited! Tomorrow is my mother's birthday and since most of my family members are off from work tomorrow, we're planning to taker her out to Sunday Brunch. It's going to be fun..yay!

 OUTFIT OF THE DAY: Like I mentioned before...today was crazy hot so I put on something sleeveless and not too heavy. But even after a few mins in the Sun, I was sweating! So I think tomorrow...less clothing lol. I borrowed my look from Kim Kardashion. I didn't really make any changes to it except the heart necklace. Basically everything from this look I already had from awhile back...just needed to put the pieces together and they fit well. Enjoy.

Until next time beauties!

Hey Beauties!!!

So just wanted to update ya'll on Sundays San Diego Kidney Walk fundraiser. It was a fundraiser that we did to raise money for the national kidney walk. And it was great...here are some pics from the day....

My Lovely Mother! 

For our fundraiser, we decided to sell tickets to friends and family for $10.00. Then we held a BBQ at the park in beautiful San Diego where participants, who bought tickets preveiously, were able to exchange their tickets for a meal. Many of our family came to support and grub :-P lol. It was delicious and we hope to have another one soon before the actually Kidney Walk on May 5th.

OUTFIT OF THE DAY:

Since we were going to the beach today, I decided to wear my new romper that I bought a few weeks ago. Big MISTAKE...it was super cold lol I don't know why I thought the Sun would be blazin lol. I just powered through it, with the help of some blankets, as it got colder. I also added a Fedora. First time actually wearing a hat.... WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK YAY OR NAY ON THE FEDORA?

Until Next time Beauties!

Hey Beauties!!!

HAPPY MONDAY!! I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. I was busy busy this weekend.  First attended church and heard a wonderful message about calling sin by it's name and being careful on how comfortable you make your life on earth. In other words, don't get wrapped up with worldly things because in they end they'll anchor you down.  Late Saturday Night I went to Ultra Zone lazer tag to celebrate my bday. Now just some history, since my 21st bday I've arranged amazing birthday events. One year I went to medieval times, another Vegas (of course), I've also planned an elaborated dinner, paintball and even rented a cabin for my friends and I to spend the weekend. So this wasn't unusual for me. I had lots of fun with my friends. Played 3 games and the first game I played I was in the negative lol, but 2nd and   3rd I improved and got to shoot lots of my friends :-P lol. I highly recommend it!

After 3 games of Lazer tag

Sunday I attended our Kidney Walk fundraiser event (pictures and more on that later)...

Overall I had a lovely weekend and I hope that yours was just as great!

OUTFIT OF THE DAY: This outfit I wore this past Saturday to church. I've had this teal blouse, bought from kohl's, for awhile now. Decided to wear it because I recently purchased these GORGEOUS teal pumps from Torrid.  I luv the style of their heels :-) I paired my blouse with a striped black and white pencil skirt from G-stage. I added a black skinny belt to offset the colors and to match my black purse. Enjoy.

Until next time Beatuies!!

XOXO

Hey Beauties!!!

Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend?!!? I've been super busy this week, reason why I haven't posted in awhile. Monday and Tuesday I went to San Diego to visit my aunt (beautiful weather btw). She's planning a fund raiser for the annual San Diego Kidney walk  this Sunday and I'm her helper. We have been making flyer's and getting information about the venue were were going to be using. A lot of work I tell ya. 

Then today I went to LA with my cousin. Just spent the day together exploring the city. Didn't have time to do much because 1. she came late and 2. I had my zumba class today. LOL its ok though, we had lots of fun. I've also been on the phone planning my Laser Tag event. Since I had to make a trip to NY I rescheduled Laser Tag for this sat (pics soon). Been a busy woman lol but after this week things should slow down ... :)

OUTFIT OF THE DAY:

I decided to wear something casual and comfortable,since I did some walking, today. I wore a floral blouse bought from G-stage. Black leggings from forever21, this I bought last year to go to Chicago. Yellow flats from Reflections.

Until Next time Beauties!!!
