NEUTRAL ZONE & DEFINED TONES

neutral zone

HOLA BABES! What have you guys been up to since the last time we chatted?

I myself, have been studying my life away (story of said life) and being an adult (paying bills, paying off my first ever speeding ticket, buying groceries for a party of one… you know the deal).

This weekend will be a chill one for me, not that I’m known to hit all the weekend ragers, but I definitely won’t be out and about as much. I feel like I only come up for air when I have to post content on the blog, shoot with Jules, be social for social’s sake, or do student stuff. Continue Reading

TURNIN’ NOTHIN’ INTO SOMETHIN’

turnin' nothin' into somethin'

“Ugh. I don’t have anything to weaaaaaar.” It’s the sentence heard ’round the world on a weekly if not daily basis. It’s us girls’ version of a mid life crisis and it sucks. The crazy thing about that mid life crisis is that there isn’t really one because our closets (to the human eye at least) are completely stuffed with clothing. From jackets, to sweaters, crop tops, and pants — our choices are endless, so why do we still feel like we have nothing to wear?

CAPTURING MY CULTURE

capturing my culture

IT’S OFFICIALLY SUPER BOWL WEEKEND. Last night, I had the pleasure of seeing a Queen in concert. The one and only, Solange graced the stage and absolutely set my soul on fire.

She was gracious, she was magical, and she was true to herself true and true. Outside of the amaaazing music she brings to the table (hehe, did you catch that little bitty play on words; her album name: A Seat At The Table), there is this undeniable authenticity she possesses that I can’t get enough of.

Solange embraces who she is — from her wild afrocentric hair, to the homage she pays to the Diana Ross era in bits, and her groovy moves on stage…. man oh man is she a force to be reckoned with. She is my soul mother in every way. Seeing her on that stage last night in all her glory… Sheeeesh reminded me of the importance of staying true to myself by keeping my culture and who I am close to my heart. Always.

HOLA BABES & Happy Tuesday! I just want to start this post off by saying a huge THANK YOU to all you babes that flooded my DM’s on Instagram with so much love for my last post. I guess I have a bunch of Texas babes keeping up with ya’ girl.

I’m always so thankful to you guys for interacting with me and not making me feel like a total loser who sits at her computer (when she doesn’t have school assignments) and types away to you guys about my life, fashion, and so forth. Words can’t even express how grateful I am and how much y’all mean to me.

COUNTRY GAL CHIC

Howdy y’all! Happy freaking Wednesday.

So. Being from Texas has its definite pros and just a few cons, the unpredictable weather being one of the few cons — regardless, I love being from the Lone Star State. I was born and raised here and though I may not live out my entire life in Texas, living here for the past 22 years has definitely shaped a lot of who I am. It has shaped my outlook on so many things especially my love of fashion and my overall look. I mean, I’m not a die hard country gal at heart or anything BUT. Let’s just say, I never understood the whole LA girls have a particular look till I became that Texas girl with that Texas look. Go figure.
