Eric Daman for CR?!

When the hell did Charlotte Russe Jump on the collabo bandwagon? And how in the world did they get Gossip Girl stylist Eric Daman on board? Shit man, things are changing! I LOVE IT!!! All of these dresses are $39.99. They are my favs of the collection. The ones that cost more are ugly as all hell. To me anyway.

Velvet and Lace lovliness. My college roommate and I have a running joke about crushed velvet. lol. This works though.


This is just called Fitted Black Dress. It reminds me of an extremely toned down version of one of the dresses from my all time fav Francesco Scognamiglio's most recent collection.


I like polka dots that are the same color as the item that they're on but in a different fabric/texture. It's so nice to look at.


I don't think I'll be going out of my way to cop any of these. The other dresses are not my type of thing at all. Maybe he should have created entire looks instead of just a few dresses because that seems to be more his thing. I would expect so much more from a person of his standing. Maybe next time?

DELAYED

I broke my camera and my life has been hectic. Beyond hectic. I was in school full time, working full time, doing an internship, and my family is going bonkers. Those are the reasons why I broke my promise that I would begin blogging again soon. But this time I'm not lying. I've been having way too much fun with life not to share. I'll begin with a few random updates just because I gotta start somewhere right? The quality of my pics is probably....not it definitely will be shit because I have to use the camera on my phone until I find another camera that I enjoy. I'd really enjoy a dope lil Nikon, but that would have to be something I save up for and buy as a Christmas gift to myself or something like that. Here are random things that have popped off over the last few months...


I've started wearing my hair out a lot more. I wear weave most of the time because my hair is SUPER difficult to deal with and I'm way too focused on my gear to care to fight with it on a daily basis. I think it was Fredric Fekkai that said "Hair is an accessory that you wear everyday" and I couldn't agree more. I just wish that I had the strength and know how to dedicate to managing mine. Braids, tracks, and wigs work just as well though. Ultimate accessories indeed. A lot of people think that I'm bald because of it, and I can't really blame them, but as my good friend Prils likes to say "They can kick rocks with no socks".



I scored this BEAUTIFUL Jessica McClintock dress for my lil sis to wear to prom for an astounding $60. From Saks. I promise I'm not lying. I'm good at what I do and I'm not too shy to admit it. With my knack for discovering sales and coupons and my persuasive powers combined...I'm telling ya'll I'm a professional deal finder. You better holla at me.

I then went into my closet and found this dress I'd bought from H&M for like 20 bucks last Black Friday (my favorite day of the year) and decided I wanted to join her. I knew I'd find a reason to wear this dress. I truly think it says "I'm going to prom, but I'm not overdoing it cuz it's not my prom". Never pass on something you fall in love with if it's a good deal guys. It will come in handy someday. Oh yea, so I wouldn't feel so bad about being at my third prom at 24 years old I recruited my girl Alisha to join me (that's her in the background, hey String Bean!). We're thinking about making prom crashing an annual event.


I don't know that I've ever shared my love of rings with you guys, but I have a love of rings. I won't leave home without them. I feel like your hands are so visible and you use them so much during the day... they should be interesting to look at if you can help it. But what I have might be a problem. I've literally been locking my door to run to the corner store real quick and realized I'm not wearing any rings...and yes I do run my little ass back inside to get one or a few. I feel so naked without them :(. Anywho, meet the Adderbite Snake Ring. It's by far my favorite ring that I've ever purchased. It doesn't go well with many things, but I love it so much that I wear it with almost everything. Isn't it FANTASTIC?! It's a half size too big and I had to pay double the price (had to go through a NY company to get one shipped over from London), but it was worth every damn penny.



Lastly, here's my baby TAJ all grown up. He's getting neutered in two days. I just hope that he's my same energetic, super happy son when he comes home. Oh yea, I have to drop him off at like 8 in the morning and go back to get him around 3pm. I can't stand the idea of leaving him with strangers. I cried about it, but what must be done must be done. I just hope that he doesn't hate mommy forever for putting him through this :(


Welp, that's it for now ladies and germs. I think my next post will be about the newest shoes I've bought. I almost always take pics of my new shoes so I'm sure I have a few that I can share. Talk to you lovely folks soon ;)
