This weekend was HECTIC. The weekends are usually for rest, but I got none of that. My day on Saturday started EARLY. I went to the Macy’s Flower Show with my mom and my niece. We also did some shopping for my brother whose birthday is today (Happy Birthday Lloyd 🙂 ) The flower show was beautiful! I took some great photos and will be creating looks based off of the flowers so stay tuned.

After I left my mom and niece, I met up with my friend Shelly and we attended the Getting Gorgeous with Degree event hosted my Audrey McClelland and Vera Sweeney. Since this was an event geared toward bloggers of course I saw most of my blogging buddies (Melissa and Melanie of O So Chic, Kitty of Kitty Bradshaw, Shanequa of Temple of Glam, Christine from Tineey.com and bloggers I recently met from the NYC Blogger’s Meetup Group (Monroe from Fashion Steele, Pam from Cinderella’s Closet, Ellie from City Brewed, Nubia from Nubia’s Nonsense, Jen from House of Jeffers, and Stephanie from Girl Friday.

There were many brands represented as well such as Degree, Hanes, Flip out Sandals, Sandals Resorts, Goody Hair Accessories, Hair Room Service etc.

This was a great event. I met a lot of great people and got some great things for my readers, so be on the look out for giveaways.

Last Thursday I attended a retirement party at Russo’s On the Bay located in Howard Beach. Despite me being under the weather, I put on my best face and headed down the conduit to Russo’s. I must say that I absolutely love Maybelline’s New “Fit Me” Foundation. It gives excellent coverage and is very light weight. Because I was sick, I was very pale and I looked like all of the color was flushed out of me. You would never know that with this foundation. Anyway here is what I wore

Yes I know I haven’t blogged in forever, that is because I was out of town. I went to spend the weekend in Philly with my best friend and I just came back today. I had such a great time, but I had to return to Brooklyn and get back to business.

I arrived in Philly on  Saturday after a ridiculously long drive because of ridiculous traffic. Anyway Erica (bff) had the entire weekend planned. Saturday we did a little shopping then went to a party for a friend who is leaving for medical school. Sunday we went to church then more shopping. Then we hit the spa which was amazing and relaxing. After the spa we went to a friend’s house and he cooked us dinner and we watched the All-Star game.  Monday we went to brunch, the movies, and then to get some cheese steaks. The night ended with a great conversation about everything with one of her neighbors who had me crying! I had a great weekend but here is just one look from the weekend (I really didn’t feel like taking pictures…surprising right?)

  • Sheer top- Charlotte Russe (I love the colors!)
  • Mini skirt- Forever 21
  • Tights- Target (I might have been the only one or maybe one other chick with tights on. Other girls went bare legged and some didn’t even wear a coat!! I said it is 20 degrees outside, I would rather be warm lol
  • Booties- BCBG

Martin jumped in my pic smh!

Erica wore

  • Zebra print top
  • Black skinny pants
  • Red patent leather peep toe pumps

 

 

This weekend I attended my friend Kim’s baby shower. It was a pretty sucky day weather wise because it rained all day, but none the less we all had a great time at the shower.
