Star Sited!

I decided to get out and enjoy this LOVELY Cali weather today and ran into Miss Amber Rose herself at The Grove in L.A.


She was SUCH a sweetheart...and she smelled SO GOOD (no homo..lol). But seriously though, she was so sweet and PATIENT (because my camera didn't want to act right.. The battery died as soon as I was gonna snap the pic so I whiped out my CRAPPY self phone just in time.) And yes fellas, she really IS just as gorgeous in person as she is on tv. Gorgeous gal. I officially LOVE her!


And as always, I stepped out in style...after all you never know who you may run into at The Grove.

Be Positive!

Tomorrow (which is today for all you lovely midwesterns and east coasters) let's try and be positive as much as we can alllll day today. I know it may seem difficult to some..even to myself at times...but I really just cannot fathom why others have to put other people down so much when they have their OWN flaws they should take care of first.

I do agree with telling people the truth or what some would consider "constructive criticism", but sometimes some things just don't need to be said and it really IS okay to just shut up and be quiet sometimes. Everyone does not care nor want your opinion....and I don't see anything wrong with that. To be honest...I could care less of ANYONE'S opinion of me unless #1 I asked you and #2 unless you are God himself.

So for today...say something positive to someone you haven't talked to in a long time or someone whom you could never see yourself saying anything nice to. Go out of your way to make someone else feel good on this day. Remember you reap what you sow (what goes around comes around). You make someone else feel good, someone else will make you feel the same way.

Fashion Bombshell of the Day!

Hey all! So excited! I was featured as the fashion bombshell of the day on one of my FAVORITE fashion blogs that I read EVERY SINGLE DAY (The Fashion Bomb Daily)! I read it like it's a newspaper! Special thanks to Claire owner and creator of http://www.fashionbombdaily.com for featuring me!







(I got a few emails well ONE to be specific from one of her readers and apparently some of her readers weren't too happy that they couldn't comment on the post..not sure why it matters...seems like people will find absolutely ANY reason to be against you...so they voted AGAINST me rather then for me....I think that's awfully silly. There's a difference between constructive criticism and just down right wanting to be negative for absolutely NO REASON....but hey I'm VERY thankful and HONORED to have been apart of fashion bomb daily! I LOVE ALL MY HATERS! (SMILEY FACE). It just just makes me wonder what those people that emailed me (over the SILLY fact that they couldn't comment) even look like or how they feel about themselves. I'm strictly about positivity all day every day! And I got WAY MORE positive emails then negative...That being said...THANKS SO MUCH Claire FOR THE EXPOSURE! GOD MADE ME IN HIS IMAGE AND I'M FEARFULLY AND WONDERFULLY MADE! (SMILEY FACE!)

Weekend recap

Hung out with my girls again last night. We have such and AWESOME time together! I wish my friend Kalyon still lived here in L.A. instead of New York. But I guess that just gives me a reason to visit NY very soon....in style!

Happy Hour!

Last night I went to happy hour at Cheesecake Factory with some of my beautiful close friends. My girl Kalyon was back in town for the holidays and I finally got to see her! She moved to New York almost 2 years ago but we still keep in touch. She had a going away event last night with some of her close friends, me included. She's also a blogger http://kalyonalexis.blogspot.com/.







OUTFIT: Forever 21

Nail Art!

So my best friend Maree just recently did my nails for the first time and I absolutely LOVE them! Anyone that knows me knows I love bright and sparkly things. I don't think it's "GHETTO" at all to have colorful nails...I just appreciate art. A few of my friends would think otherwise...(*shrugs*..whatever)..I just think they do not understand and appreciate art. I hate BORING...unless I'm in a depressing boring mood. I think everything can be an accessory including HAIR and NAILS. I am an artsy edgy girl and I love color. So if you want to EXPLORE with color and weird fun nails...DO IT! What's so different then wearing a weird fun outfit then expressing your love for pretty colorful things on your nails? Fashion is just an expression...so EXPRESS YOURSELF!

Fitness Pole dancing!

Hey all! Today was a wonderful day! I went fitness pole dancing for the first time ever and it was sooo much fun! My sister celebrated her birthday in style by having a Diva Party at the gym. It really DOES work you out. And for you people wondering..no it does not have ANYTHING to do with stripping! It's just a way for us ladies to be sexy and still work out at the same time. It's just another form of aerobics....sexy aerobics. I say anyone interested should go for it. I hear it really tones your body. I'm thinking of really joining a fitness pole dancing class this summer besides my regular 24 hr fitness routine.

Your haters....where do they really come from? And why?

Hey all. I know it's been a while. Alot has gone on the past few weeks that has cut down my blogging time. First thing I've been having severe back pain to the point it has put me in tears. Went to see a doctor and we're waiting on results of what it could be. So as of now...bed rest it is. I am still in St. Louis but I will be going back to L.A. in just 3 days. Had a good time here with the fam but now it's that time again. Time to get back on my grind. It's a brand new year!


T-shirt line is still hoping to re-launch again this year. I am keeping the faith and I won't give up on anything God instructed me to do in my life. Do you realize that everything you're good at someone else isn't? That's called a GIFT. And I refuse to sit on any of my gifts any longer. This week especially I have allowed once again people to say mean things to me, hurt me, and ALMOST made me forget who I am. By me being a Christian and still down to earth is kind of hard. People expect all these things out of me and I'm only human. People can be just down right cruel....ALL BECAUSE THEY WANT TO BE YOU. And if they don't want to be you they want what you have. I personally am aware of the gifts God gave me. Otherwise I wouldn't work so hard or get disappointed when I feel like I didn't do something right. People don't like to hear the truth. That's why it's so easy for them to get offended. I personally know I have a strong personality and I LOVE TO KEEP IT 100% or REAL. Wow...are you telling me people hate for a person to be honest? YES they do! For that reason I have cut half of the people out of my life who claim they even cared.

DID YOU KNOW that half of the people who you THINK care for you REALLY DONT? And they just want to see you fail? That can be kind of hurtful when you realize people close to you do NOTHING but WATCH your FACEBOOK & TWITTER pages JUST to look at your PICTURES than dog you behind your back. THAT'S CALLED HATERS! LOL.......well you know what I say? DUST YOURSELF OFF....AND KEEP PUSHING!

I'm doing alot of self evaluation right now in my life. Realizing that I'm not even famous yet, but people are persecuting me like I already am...LOL. I've taken myself off of a few social media sites for that reason...at least for a while. I think people take life WAY TOO SERIOUS and need to get a sense of humor. I feel like the only way something can offend you that is NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS or has ABSOLUTELY nothing to do with you....is if you feel a bit guilty about your own lifestyle. Envious maybe?

I will NEVER change WHO I AM for ANYBODY! For all of my readers....KNOW WHO YOU ARE! People are going to try and tear you down and rip you into pieces every single day...BECAUSE THEY JUST WANT TO BE YOU. And guess what else.....if YOU are not aware of your OWN gifts.....THEY ARE...that's why they keep HATING on you so much. Because THEY want YOUR gifts. And you know what else? Everyone is not going to like you! So what? Show them whose boss...and KEEP MOVING.

Know that people will NEVER be satisfied. It was a time in my life where I was doing some wrong things and it's like people were okay with that. But once I started doing right and speaking my mind...people have a problem with that. WHEN I SPEAK HIGHLY OF MYSELF "omg you're sooo arrogant. Stop feeling yourself." WHEN I'M DOWN..."OMG you're such a b#### and you're sooo negative." REALLY?? WELL WHAT IS IT that you ppl want me to do? What is it going to take for you people to be satisfied? Guess what the answer is....


NOTHING! PEOPLE WILL NEVER BE SATISFIED WITH YOU UNTIL THEY SEE YOU FAIL! And I refuse to fail. I will NOT fail.

Life is almost a lose lose situation. You live WRONG they talk about you. You live RIGHT..they talk about you. Well....LET THEM TALK.

I'm aware that one of my God-given GIFTS is the gift of VOICE or MOTIVATION/ENCOURAGEMENT and SPEAKING. That's a GIFT. Because everyone can't do that. And if it WASN'T a gift....others wouldn't be so mad when I speak.....and they know I'm always right....ha!

I have done WAY more encouraging things to people then negative. That I do know. Therefore I will not sit back and allow anyone to try and tell me otherwise. If you know who you are no one can make you believe you're someone else.  Yeah, it may hurt when they try and say things negative to you or about you, but if you know who you are...you'll learn to laugh and shake them off. Learn and understand, people are very judgmental....and that will NEVER change.

MORAL OF THIS STORY IS: KNOW WHO YOU ARE and don't allow ANYONE to tear you down just because they WISH they could have the gifts you had. USE THEM.......and watch where your life takes you. DO YOU!


XOXO.
