Celebrity Inspired look...


I recently turned the FABULOUS FLIRTY 30 and during my host of celebrations I had a celebrity look-alike dinner. I dressed as one of my fav reality stars Kim Kardashian. Kim is always stylish and chic. Her and her sisters are always dressed for the cameras and they are obsessed with animal print...#1 being LEOPARD!!!! (my fav)
I mimicked her style with a fitted one shoulder leopard dress ( which accented my curves perfectly might I add) from Dots Fashion $21.99, Shoes were from Shoe Time - I caught an amazing sale 3/$20, and accessories from a local beauty supply store.

I will have to admit , this was one of the best birthdays EVER, I can't wait to have my celebrity bday dinner next year. I'm thinking Lady GaGa and a meat dress maybe..lol...we'll see.
Check out my creative friends who helped me celebrate.

    Catrisa aka Mary J

Velecia aka Meagan Good  

 Kesha aka Amber Rose ( this was one of my favs)


               Simeon aka Kanye West 


Crystal aka Jill Scott


 lol....overall it was an amazing night

Tape up that Make Up!

Have you ever dropped your make up pallet and just wanted to throw it away ...HOLD UP, WAIT A MINUTE, LETS JUST PUT SOME ALCY IN IT. I recently came across another blog that gave me the perfect solution to broken make up pallets.

Crush any remaining intact pieces of makeup with a fork until it is fine and resembles baby powder. Every little piece of makeup must be mashed smoothly or it cannot be uniformly repaired.

Pour a small amount of rubbing alcohol into a small container. Insert an eyedropper into the rubbing alcohol and squeeze the bulb end of the eyedropper firmly. Fill the dropper completely. Place a few drops of rubbing alcohol directly onto the powdered makeup. Stir gently. Add more rubbing alcohol until the powder is thoroughly wet. Always add the rubbing alcohol slowly, you can add more rubbing alcohol if it's needed, but it is hard to remove any excess liquid from the makeup.


Press the makeup paste into the compact using a Popsicle stick. Make sure that the makeup paste is flat and even. An even surface will make later application much easier.

Set the makeup container onto a flat surface. Leave the lid open and allow the makeup mixture to completely air dry before using. There may be a faint alcohol smell in your makeup. Don't worry. It will dissipate as the makeup dries.....Thank me later.

Valentine Cutie

Happy Love Day to everyone that was able to spend time with that special person, as well as to those whom were feeling a little like me...lol
The shirt is self explanatory......

This shirt is an exclusive for my tshirt line BOUJIE TEES ( coming soon)
And since Valentines Day fell on a Thurday, and of course I cant wear my lovely tee to the office, I sported a haute pink blazer ( whick was thrifted for about $4.99 ) with some black slacks. 


I also added a little love to my desk cabinet.


Check out some other cuties sporting their  BOUJIE TEES F VDay shirts.
 
 
Her facial expression is hilarious.
