Affirmations of A Little Brown Boy I dealt with infertility for 5 years before being blessed with a child, a son. A beautiful brown boy who is rambunctious, caring, intelligent and oddly humorous (like his Mom). On the day he was born, the words “I love you” involuntarily kept escaping my mouth every few moments. This type of love was new to me, it was completely overwhelming and self-sacrificing. I was emotionally raw, wholly in love, but also terrified of all the what if’s. His nurse her overheard me telling my son that I loved him and told me to make sure I told him that every day. From that day on I have not let a day go by without telling him I love him. EVERYDAY. PERIOD. If my parenting style could be summed up into one word it would be: Intentional. About a week ago I began making my son recite the following affirmations: “I am who God says I am.” “I am a leader.” “I am strong” “I am beautiful.” “I am smart.” “I am loved.” I figured that as a brow...

Hey Beauties! I've missed you guys and have been enjoying the summer, but I had to get back to you guys when I discovered this new product. This is yet another gem that I had the pleasure of sampling through my Sephora Play monthly subscription. It’s the Kate SomervilleExfoliKate®: An Intensive Exfoliating Treatment ($24). It claims to be Hollywood's 2 minute facial and it completely lives up to the hype! Background My skincare routine contains a mild retinol and that drastically speeds up cell production and causes my face to peel regularly when I'm using it. A few weeks ago I had switched back to the stronger version, Retin-A, in order to try and quickly fade a few stubborn dark marks after a particularly bad breakout. If any of you have ever used Retin-A, you know the peeling is serious! Within the first 24 hours of applying Retin-A, I'm usually peeling on an hourly basis (I know...gross, but the skin that comes thru afterwards is glorious dah-ling! lol)....

So, I’m usually not that girl. Valentine’s Day isn’t usually a big deal for me. If my husband got me some flowers and a cookie and cream Hershey bar I’d be completely content. This year I decided to do something different and actually care about Valentine’s Day. I wanted to get excited and plan an outfit for our dinner. In a previous post, I posted some dresses that gave me some inspiration with the off the shoulder trend. I had been looking all over for the perfect off the shoulder top that wasn’t too revealing, because my shoulders are definitely not my best asset. For a full week I searched for possible contenders and finally found one with Society Plus. I paired the shirt with a flowery flare skirt and some blush colored Badgley Mischka heels. I felt so feminine and pretty in this outfit. I hope you guys like it and get some inspiration of your own. It doesn’t have to be Valentine’s to dress up.  Society + is an online plus size retailer. Their clothes are very fa...

Hey! Can you guys tell what I've been planning for my Valentine's Day look?  I have a vision for how I want to look for Valentine's Day and I know it includes something with a boat neck or an off the shoulders top. It's a look I've never done before and am excited to see how it comes to fruition. I'm going for a soft, feminine, Parisian look. Below are some looks I am contemplating and I thought I'd share and take you on this little journey of creating this outfit. I hope I'm able to execute what I am envisioning in my head.

As a plus size woman there is rarely a time when I can purchase something and wear it without any alterations or the addition of an accessory or two. This dress was that rare occasion. I ordered it on Monday and received it on Friday and wore it on Sunday. Details: This dress was figure flattering with without  being too fitted. I was able to move freely in it. The material was medium weight it is made of 95% polyester and 5% Elastane so it absolutely has stretch, but it has the look of Rayon so you can dress it up or down . The best thing about this dress is it is under $30....that's not a typo....under $30. So beauties, you know I'm always going to lookout for you so if you want to order it you don't need to search I've linked it for you right here: ASOS CLUB L MIDI DRESS  : https://api.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?id=616345893&pid=uid2881-34273359-6 DRESS: ASOS CLUB L MIDI W/PUSSY BOW
