I received a 1.7 fl. oz. travel size bottle of Evian Facial Spray. It’s the perfect size to take along when you’re on the go. I’ve used this Facial Spray before (in the 5 fl oz bottle) and I must say, I’m a huge fan. It’s perfect for everyday and year round use. I keep a bottle in my purse and use it a few times throughout day or whenever I need a quick refresher. If you’re constantly on the go or a person who loves to travel and wants to maintain beautiful skin and flawless make[...]
The Colossal Chaotic Lash - By Maybelline New York After seeing the commercial for one of Maybelline's newest mascaras “The Colossal Chaotic Lash”, I just had to have it. According to the commercial, this mascara is supposed to add volume to your lashes while giving you the perfect disorganized bold look. The commercial gave the impression that this mascara would give my lashes a "chaotic" disorganized look like the model pictured below. But according to the photo, the model is wearing a s[...]
Avon Mega Effects Mascara Review It’s no secret that I love mascara, I usually have over 10 tubes on hand at a time. I’ve never worn fake lashes so I’m not really a fan of them but personally I think I can create the same look with mascara. Today I’m doing a review of the Avon Mega Effects Mascara. What attracted me to this particular tube was that it stood out. I've never seen a mascara brush that looks similar to a paint brush. Before applying the mascara, I used a brow comb to comb o[...]
Blood, Sweat & Heels Episode 5 Review “Detox, Dear, Detox” This episode starts off basically where it left off from episode 4. Mica walks in Brie’s parent's backyard in the Hamptons already on “10”. The whole time Brie is telling her to keep it down because her parents are in the house with some guests and she doesn’t want to disturb them. Mica of course is drunk and she’s emotional. Being in your feelings while drunk is not a good look. No one wants to be around an emotional[...]

Blood, Sweat, and Heels: Episode 3 Ok, so I found myself watching this show yet again, for the third week in a row. Hey, I can’t help it, it comes on right after RHOA and I have a feeling that it’s going to get good. So here’s what went down this past Sunday. Geneva and Demitra met up earlier to squash their “beef” regarding Demitra’s last blog post. During an event thrown by Geneva’s new employer, Uptown Magazine she invited four of her fellow castmates. Once at the event, Mic[...]
Blood, Sweat, and Heels: Episode 2 Ok, so I finally got a chance to watch the second episode on Blood, Sweat, and Heels. I’m still on the fence about whether or not I’m going to finish out the season, maybe I keep watching with the hope of this show getting better. In this episode, the girls confront Demetria about what she wrote on her blog, based on the conversation that took place during Daisy’s brunch. You can read what she wrote here. Anywho, here’s my beef about the second episo[...]

The other five cast members include real estate partner Brie Bythewood; modeling agency owner Mica Hughes; Blogger Demetria Lucas; style expert Daisy Lewellyn and last but not least Detroit native Geneva Thomas, a style and pop culture[...]
One can never have too many purses. I mean that literally, I have a separate closet dedicated to my pursues and it's stuffed beyond capacity. Yet I still feel the need to buy more purses. Each purse has a different message that it conveys when paired with a look. Bags come in various sizes, shapes, colors, and styles. Finding the right bag to fit every woman's needs is hard to do. One of my favorite style of purses to carry is the oversized clutched bag, they are very hard to carry on a regula[...]
