Wore this to my daughters game the other day.fashion blogger

The year is almost over and I can’t believe how time is flying. Everyday I wake up constantly evaluating my life, first thinking how grateful I am, how blessed I am to wake up and what’s the goal of the day, but no matter how positive you can be life is life. It’s funny how sometimes things will deter us and we start on a negative downhill spiral. Something might not go right, you might forget you phone or there might be a lot of traffic and you are running late. Whatever the case may be,  find a mantra or something to listen to so you can bring yourself back and out of that space. This is so necessary because if we don’t change  our thoughts the tone of our day will be negative. This happened to me the other day and I had to take a couple deep breaths and focus on all the beautiful things around me. This is why I appreciate the stars, the ocean, the butterflies that follow me, my daughters and my family.  These things instantly bring me back to the present. You have to believe that in order to get through anything in life from the smallest to the biggest,  you have to be  present. A lot of beautiful  things are around you too, you just have to be aware and be thankful… for it all good and bad.  Trust me some days are hard but keep breathing, keep your eyes open,  keep smiling and the most important of it all, trust. xoxofashion blogger nothing like sharing a bottle of wine with someone you love…fashion bloggerchoices…

The colors and style remind me of Asia. It’s not too tight but fits just right. I don’t always want my clothing fitting me skin tight. I’ve rounded up a couple dresses for date night just as nice here, here, here, here and here. Hope you guys have a wonderful week. black fashion blogger black fashion blogger black fashion blogger black fashion blogger black fashion blogger black fashion blogger

Pretty Strands Hair and Scalp Oil

Pretty Strands Hair and Scalp Oil

This is my pic for product of the week. I’ve used it for a couple of months now since I’ve swapped it out for my other favorite oil. That one made our scalp a bit itchy so this one is absolutely perfect. Oils normally smell bad but not this one. It’s formula is light enough to put a couple drops on pressed hair and perfect for when you want to wear your hair natural. It’s also good for weaves to keep hair from getting flakes since your hair is braided up for so long. My hair has even grown a bit.  This is my second bottle so far because I use it on me and my babies hair. Overall it’s  just a great oil to add to your hair care products. You will see the difference when you consistently use it. You can purchase the oil  here if you’d like to try it out. 

Hope you are having a great week so far. xoxo black fashion blogger

“success is an inside job”

 Success? What is it to you?

 For the past two years I have studied myself and what I feel success is. I was feeling a longing for more, when I set a goal and I achieved it I wanted more and more and more. It got to a point where I still wasn’t happy. Side note when I’m not happy I wear it well. I started studying, trying to learn how to quiet my mind and reaching for peace. I know how powerful my mind is and the power of my prayer. I’m really good to the people around me and life is pretty good. Both of my daughters are doing well in school and my family is healthy, but sometimes when I lay in bed at night my mind use to wonder. A suffering in my mind, a wanting of more, but as I studied myself and began my morning rituals I started to see that success is an inside job. Our mind is like a sponge, we have to be careful what we let in and who we let in. This is why it’s so important to protect your space and the things you watch because our subconscious mind retains so much. When I started managing my mind is when I began to feel more peaceful. Not saying that I still don’t have my moments, but I’ve realized that I can’t let anything around me really affect my mood because I’m the one with the power. We all have power we just have to discover it within ourselves.

 I’ve learned to surrender and have faith that every single thing that’s going on is for my good or the good of someone around me so I need to evaluate my mind, meditate and have understanding. I think it is easier for me because I don’t judge others. We are all one, so who am I to judge anyone. We all sin differently and when we learn to just care more and  just be nice to the ones that don’t know how to manage their mind, is when we will have more peace. I don’t regret any of my decisions, the trials or the pain because it really all benefits the next stage of my life.

Life is good when your inside is good, so when your feeling a bit down use that time to quiet your mind and work on the inside.  xoxoblack fashion blogger black fashion bloggerblack fashion blogger black fashion blogger black fashion blogger black fashion blogger black fashion blogger black fashion blogger
