Life&Glamour

Happy Wednesday!!! Did you all enjoy your July 4th weekend?!! The kids and I went up north to visit my life partner and his family. We truly enjoyed our weekend getaway. A trip much needed. I had a bunch of laughs, good food, and whole lot of TLC!! But anyway~ on to Today's post!!! You know how I love putting you all on to new things. But today's topic is a MUST!!  Ladies...… adding a muumuu to your wardrobe is definitely a MUST!! I don't remember the last time I've had so much love for a purchase. If you want to call me old fashion for this, lol, I can be grandma chic.  A muumuu dress is a loose fitting dress from the Hawaiian origin. When many people hear muumuu, they think of a unflattering night gown. They are so much more than that. Back in the day my aunts and grandmothers wore the heck out of these gowns. But baaaaaby, I now see what all of the fuss is about. The muumuu is something flattering for all shapes and sizes. Majority of mine are one size fits all. The ...

  June 29, 2021 WHAT TO PACK FOR MIAMI WHAT TO PACK FOR MIAMI Hi Tribe! I am going to Miami at the end of July to celebrate my 42nd birthday, and thought it would fun to fill you guys in with my 4 day Miami travel essentials. I don't care if its a one night stay or a week, I have a tendency to over pack with EVERYTHING. For this trip, I plan on just taking a carry on. Being cautious about what I pack is a MUST! PLANE ESSENTIALS   Whether I'm traveling by car, train, or plane.....sleep is my main priority. (When I'm not driving of course). My sleep mask, cell phone, I-pad, eyeglasses, magazine, and moisturizer are a must while in the air. Better Homes & Gardens is my go to for home decor and new recipe inspiration these days. It's been a fave of mine now for six months. TOILETRIES & MAKEUP ESSENTIALS   Another bad habit of mine is packing way too much makeup. However for this trip I plan on taking two shades of lipstick and a gloss by Juvia's , my Black Opal ...

I'm back!!!!  I've been slacking a little with the favorite things segments, but your girl has been extremely busy the past few months. My mom finally retired from the school district as a teacher. Jordyn, my daughter,  just had her senior prom and graduation. And my youngest baby, Jalen David, has been promoted to the 9th grade. Wewwww!!!! I can finally breathe a little before dropping Jordyn off to College. Yea, I'm a little in my feelings with one leaving the nest.  But anyway!!!! Lets just jump right into it!  June's favorite things consist of some new and exciting things. All of which that are now regulars in my day to day and/or lifestyle.  1.

Every woman has gone through being anxious about what to wear for a date. Being in a long distance relationship, my date nights are limited. So when Tay and I are finally together, I definitely take advantage of those nights and moments. What girl doesn't want to look good for their man? The key for me is to look amazing the times we're together, for him to want to see me more when were apart.  Were in full summer mode right now. Although Summer isn't officially here yet, the weather is extremely warm. Whether he and I are headed out for dinner, a movie, brunch, or just for coffee, I love keeping things simple and pretty. During these summer days and nights, a floral dress seems to be my go to look for date nights nowadays. I've never really been a floral print lover, but within the past few months, it has really grown on me. Depending on the date, I tend to dress the print up with wedges, or dress it down with sneakers or flats. To polish the look, i accessorize with c...

  Summer is just around the corner, which means sundresses, swimsuits, shorts, sandals and more. With all the exposure, the effects of the harsh sun can really take a toll on your skin. I love being out in the sun. Sunbathing is my favorite summer activity.  The lord knows how badly I need color to these legs after a cold winter. It gives me the vitamin D that my body craved for all winter long. But too much of anything has its side effects. Prolonged exposure can put you at risk of sun damage and aging. Taking the proactive measures needed in nourishing and caring for your skin, will protect you all summer long. Here are 5 easy ways to nourish your skin all summer long: 1. Make water your best friend . Its VERY important to remember to stay hydrated with the higher temperature weather. Of course we know that hydration helps with our inner organs and tissues, but it also helps with our skin as well. Water helps keep our skin healthy. Drinking regular water or coconut water wil...
