If there's anything I love, it's a good designer dupe. I was scrolling on Instagram and I saw a picture of these bomb black leather Chelsea boots with a crystal-embellished strap by Gucci (Retail:$1,100).

Happy Fall Y'all! It's officially the first day of Fall, and my wardrobe is kinda-sorta ready haha. I've been keeping an eye on the fall fashion trends for 2020, and making lists of what I need in my closet. The weather shifted rather quickly in my area, so I've already put away most of my summer clothes in an effort to quickly tranisiton my closet. My focus when shopping for a new sea[...]
We have exactly 8 days until the first day of fall. While I'm excited about this, because fall is my favorite season to dress for, I didn't get to really wear all the summer outfits that I got (specifically since we have so many restrictions right now, where was I going chile? But our health and safety is the most important thing, and there will be other summers). One such outfit i[...]
Not too long ago I invested in the original SKIMS Waist Trainer (Retail: $68, USD), and since I really liked the results it gave me I decided to purchase the Power Mesh Waist Trainer as well (Retai: $76, USD). The Power Mesh Waist Trainer comes in more colors, and it's longer so it covers more of your torso area. About The Waist Trainers I wasn't sure what size to buy when I bo[...]
One of my fave trends for the fall is leather pants (or faux leather pants, if you prefer). The thing is when you're a big booty Judy, it's hard to find leather pants that fit well, accentuate your shape, and don't gape at the waist. The key is finding a pair that's well-tailored, especially if the material doesn't have any stretch / give. A traditional leather pant (or faux leather pant)[...]
This could be TMI, but ya girl has heavy periods. Sometimes it takes a tampon and a pad to keep me feeling safe and secure, and even then I might risk a leak. Laying down at night is the worst because I know no matter what I'll wake up to seeing leaks. That was until I finally invested in some period panties, and they have been a game-changer for me. What are period panties? My peri[...]
Over the years, I've struggled a lot with burnout. I'm always on the go, and I'm not someone who likes to take breaks. It's taken a while for me to understand that rest is productive because I'm the kind of person who will literally work themselves until they are exhausted and crash. It doesn't matter if it's at work, back when I was in undergrad (where I was a triple major), etc. I'm goi[...]
Sweatpants are great for relaxed days and weekend errands, but I personally like to find ways to dress them up a bit. No longer reserved for off days, sweatpants and cute loungewear along with sweatsuits have become more popular now that people are spending more time at home due to the pandemic. The question is: how can you wear sweatpants, and still look fly, fierce, and fabulous?[...]
Sephora's Welcome Back Sale kicked off last week and continues until August 23rd online and in stores. All Beauty Insider Members (which is free to join!) will receive $15 off a $75 or more purchase, or $20 off $100 or more when they use the code WELCOMEBACK. I also want to remind you guys that Sephora has been offering 10% off of all purchases for healthcare workers, but I'm not sure if[...]
I love to read, but as a woman on the go, I don't always have a lot of time to sit down and curl up with a good book. This is why I love listening to audiobooks because I'm able to listen to the books that I've been wanting to read while doing other things (cleaning, working out at the gym, eating lunch at work, driving home, etc). This also allows me to finish the books faster because I[...]
