Men's Fashion

So i won't begin to act as if i know anything about men's fashion. I don't. I know what i like to see men in though and one of my favorite looks is a smart sweater. If mostly solid in color and properly fit it is the sexiest thing (along with cologne) that a man can wear. Soft, snuggly, and sexy. Here are a few of my favorite options:

Up and Coming Film

Here's a clip from the film Blood Run Free. It features a fabulous new up and coming actress Gillian Glasco. She is someone to lookout for. Check it out!

I Have Failed...

So i wrote in the beginning of the year that one of my goals is to post at least 3 times a week. Unfortunately, i failed to realize just how demanding my schedule would be being a full time student (taking 6 classes this term), working 2 jobs, and dealing with a lack of sleep (I'm averaging about 4-5 hours a night, I'm used to 7-9!). This is tough! The good news, i have 4 more weeks left with this schedule. Believe me, i am counting down! Any who, i don't know if anyone is reading this, but if you are i can defiantly use your positive thoughts and patience's! If you are out there, let me know how your doing with you resolutions.

Everyone should read this article to avoid those awful fashion disasters during the colder months!

Pause For The Cause

Something more important must take precedent over myself or fashion. Helping those in need is a responsibility we all must take part in. Here are a few way you can help those suffering in Haiti:

1.To donate $10 to the Red Cross, text-enabled users simply text "Haiti" to 90999, and 100% of the money is passed through to the Red Cross
2. text donation efforts are underway, including one backed by musician Wyclef Jean, the CTIA noted. To donate $5, text users simply text "Yele" to 501501.
3. the Clinton Foundation, started by former U.S. President Bill Clinton, has set up a $10 donation by texting "Haiti" to 20222.

Seasonal Depression or Hibernation?

So during this time of year (in the northeastern portion of the US) i feel a change in my focus and my outlook turns pessimistic. Is it seasonal depression or just our innate sense to shield our bodies from the brutal cold that changes us? What should i do, force myself to leave my nice warm bed or just ride it out till spring?

Future Plans

OK, so i read somewhere that in order to make your dreams come true you should put pen to paper. So I decided to use a keyboard instead. First on the list, my dream job!

1. Travel
2. Independence
3. Relaxed company culture
4. Upward mobility
5. Maximum financial return
6. Flexibility
7. Fashion freedom in the office

These are just a few to start, this list will grow as time goes by. Give me some ideas.

A Bag For Every Season...

Hair For The New Year

What better way to start the new year than with a new do! I just recently cut my hair and for the first time in my life it is above my shoulders. A big freakin' deal for me! But as i gaze over photos of celeb beauties i wonder am i brave enough to try a really short style? Many have gone after the Rihanna do (i know i could never do that) but the lovey Halle Berry has to be the most sought after style of all time. The cute pixie cut is perfect for her face. I was so happy she revisited the earlier day with her new do. Do I dare go for the Halle?

How You Doin'

OK so i realize that i am about 30 years late, but i am officially a confirmed fan of Wendy Williams. She is freakin' hilarious! She is honest and a driven. I wish i had a little Wendy in me. That would be the fire i need to really be a bit more forward and outspoken.


How do you feel about Wendy?

Happy New Year

So it's 2010! How the heck did that happen so fast! I can't even remember 2009. To begin this year i have decided to write my resolutions here so you guys can keep me accountable. I really want to achieve my goals for the year, so, here goes.

1. Write a post at least 3 times a week. With my schedule for the year, writing will be a true task but it's good for me. I enjoy exploring all the things that life has to offer from fashion, food, museums, traveling, and fun with family and friends. I need the release from the day to day grind.

2. Date more, or rather any! I have not been on a date in years! Literally! So I am going to put myself out there. Having that special someone is something that is important to me and also something that I have neglected actively. That is going to change!

3. Take more pictures. I have decided to become a more interesting person! Funny, right! I am going to do more and document my life in photos.

4. Spend more time with friends and family. I am a loner. I enjoy being by myself a bit to much. This goes hand in hand with #3 in my effort to become a more interesting person. Enjoying life with friends and family is crucial to a life filled with happiness.

5. Become more adventurous with fashion! I am safe in every aspect of my life, including the contents of my closet. I need more color, prints, and patterns, varied lengths and fits. Also my shoes (my loves) need a major upgrade. I haven't purchased any shoes in over a year! Blasphemy, I know!

6. Join something! I have yet to join a/an group or organization, and I'm in college. This place is crawling with 'em! Joining a group/organization not only will allow for me to become more involved in my community but will help with the social joys that I have missed out on in the past. Keep in mind joining means nothing if I'm not actively involved; that will help with #3!

Alright, there they are! My personal goals for the year. Please send good thoughts and suggestion to help me stay on track and achieve these goals! I can do it!

What about you, what are your goals?
