Cheap Polish is your Friend

Pictured is Belle of the Ball by the brand Confetti. Bought this lavendar color from CVS like months ago. Most women are reluctant to take a chance on a no name brand of polish due to concerns with quality. However, as a bargainista, risks come with the territory. All in all, I was very pleased with this polish and its vibrant pigment.

Good Food

Ok into week 2...FOR REAL THIS TIME!

I started my Weight loss regimen officially on February 13th and have since lost about 3 lbs from the first week. This week I plan on incorporating more activity into my regimen!

Any suggestions on managing an exercise plan would definitely help in the time being..


Now on to an hair update, I cut my hair when I returned from my vacation to the beautiful island of Jamaica. I am most likely 85% all natural tresses! The length is something to get used to but my hair curls so much more now.

A few pictures are above!

Day 1: My Redemption back to Working Out

I have laid low on the fast food, sodas, and candy this week and I have tried to keep my meals under 1400 per day.

NOW is the time Ladies and Gents that I return to the Excercise bandwagon...

Just praying I dont get lazy this evening and chicken out! I will most likely do a cardio routine of either 30 minutes of a Salsa Dance DVD or go to Planet Fitness for a varied 45 minute Cardio/Strength workout..


Ahhh decisions decisions.....wish me luck!

Shabby Chic

I was looking in the Home/Garden section of the "For Dummies" series and found some interesting interior decor looks designed by Rachel Ashwell.

Natural Hair Updos

Hi All,

I am completely obsessed at this point with YouTube tutorials!
In tonight's quest, I found the following video for creating natural hair updos..



I also posted pics below of what I came up with as an Ledisi-esque type of style. I will need to keep practicing at this but I love it so far!
