Read MoreSo this past weekend, Atlanta Downtown Restaurant Week kicked off. I had found out about it on Facebook, and immediately knew that we would participate in it on our weekly date night. After quickly checking the website, me and hubs decided on White Oak Kitchen. The Yelp reviews were good and the hipster-ish name drew me in.
Read More"Rasta Barbie", "Mocha-hontas"--all of the clichΓ© names, I've been referring to myself as since I've put these Marley twists in my hair. I love them!!
Read MoreHey guys, I'm sitting here trying to find inspiration for this blog post, but I'm just not in a word-y mood. In light of recent events (#AltonSterling and #PhilandoCastile killings, and now shootings in Dallas), I'm in a somber mood and I'm just going to allow myself to be.
Read MoreI love wrap dresses. Have I ever told you guys that? I do...because it's one of the easiest and most flattering style of dress for ALL body types. They also have this "classy" feel to them....even if it only cost you 20 bucks...like in this case.
Read MoreHey mi gente! June is here, which means summer is near! Anyone who knows me, knows that summer time is my favorite time of year. Heck, I was born in July--so, of course, it is.
Read MoreSo, I'm sure you all have been seeing all the reminders on TV or from people you know that Saturday night you need to move your clocks forward one hour for Daylight Savings Time. Now, if you know me, you know that I am so happy that Spring is here.
Read MoreSo have you begun to notice a trend here on my blog? Yes, the indoor shots and the OTK boots is what I'm talking about. You know why? Well...it's cold here in Atlanta! Thankfully, we aren't experiencing an impending blizzard like some other places, but the winter struggle is still real.
So, as you know, I lean towards a slight "boho chic" style. If certain items of clothing give off a retro vibe, I'm probably attracted to it. Which is exactly what happened with this top. The print, the slight babydoll cut, and the peplum--all give off a vintage-y feel that I immediately liked. I like that it looks like something you'd find at Anthropologie, without the Anthro prices. Also, the tans, browns, and neutral color scheme went perfectly with one of my favorite pair of OTK (over the knee, calling them "thigh highs" is so 90's. *wink*) boots. It was the perfect casual, date night look.
I currently have this shirt listed in my eBay shop, in limited quantities, so grab one while you can. The lace-up bodysuit in my last outfit post has since sold out, and thanks for all who purchased. I have many more great items that I will share with you all soon!

Have a great weekend, guys. And try to stay warm out there!
A while back....a loooong while back actually, I told you guys that I would start sharing with you some of my fave Amazon purchases, since I get a package from them in the mail about every-other-day. I really do. I'm getting my Prime money's worth, I tell ya. So in the spirit of getting back in the swing of things on this here blog, just thought I'd share with you one of my new Amazon faves.
If you follow me on my other social media accounts, then you probably already know that I adore my Apple Watch. It's easily one of my favorite purchases of 2015. I could go on and on about how it's made my life easier in numerous ways, but that's a whole other post.
Anyway, while perusing Amazon looking for more bands for my Apple Watch, I stumbled upon this Apple Watch & iPhone charging station. I instantly thought it was genius! I realized it's a great way to prevent my nightstand from being cluttered with charging cables and devices. The kicker, is the thing is only 10 bucks.
So if you have an Apple Watch (which means you also have an iPhone), this is definitely something to consider buying.
