It is just too cold!!!

This is my city  park in the summer

So its March! How could I have thought that nice weather we had a few weeks back, would continue and we would have an early spring? I am so upset!!

I love all seasons but, usually when they just start:) In the winter I enjoy the first month or so. I love the first snowfall, the first really cold day that you have to put on your heavy Jacket, bypass everything else then there is Christmas, New Years and all the birthdays in my house and then I am ready for spring.

I love early springs. I enjoy the rain, the birds singing, the first blossoms on the trees, shoot I love to see the first buds.
Summer I enjoy being able to be free not jacket, no sweater. I love late sunshine. Eating outside  in the city. The nice cold wind at just the right time-AHHH just the thought. Then of course, I love fall just for the Fashion! The new wardrobe that includes all things chunky, thick and black!!!

So where was I? I wrote this all to say I want spring.... Now!  Snow is March is so UNCOOL!

Natural hair update

6 months ago

So I totally forgot yesterday was 7 months since I chopped all of my hair off and went natural. I am so happy that I took this path because it has changed me in so many ways. I am definitely enjoying this weave as my protective style but it feels good to know my hair is going to grow stronger and not take any abuse from me. The best part is not having to worry about new growth and relaxing it after I remove it.

I will not say being natural is easy. It takes way longer for me to do my natural hair than it ever did when I was relaxed.
I definitely spent alllllllllllloooooooooootttttttttt of money on products in such a short amount of time.

Some of the pros are not having to clean up all those darn broken hairs from my sink.
No more crunchy sound from when I over process it and being more aware of what I do to it.
I loved color but after my color 6 months ago I am not to found anymore because it dried my hair out and damaged it so I had to cut all of those ends off plus more.

I love my hair and can not wait for it to grow big and beautiful!

Surprise, Surprise!!!

So my husband comes home and he is telling me how nice I look today. I am like whatever-(he was acting like an asshole this weekend!!!) I did not say it just thought it. So then he comes around the corner with a big brown bag with the familiar words Louis Vuitton .I wanted this bag for a while but then I decided hmm maybe I will just stick with cheaper bags-that is if I am buying them myself.
Here is my new bag!!

My neutral night out look

So I have a new video camera and I thought why not try to make some tutorials for make-up. I know not everyone is into the colorful or dramatic looks so I decided to share my neutral going out look.

Outfit of the day

Today was a typical day for me. Wake up run errands think about completing my college homework and then realizing time is running away and my kids will be home soon-LOL
So this is my outfit of the day nothing too spectacular, very casual and me.
