For today's blog post, my friends over at UpBra sent me a couple of their bras to try out and review. UpBra makes different styles of bras and bikini's, that lets you adjust how much cleavage and lift you wanna rock (by adjusting the straps under the bra, as seen here on their site) which is what makes their bras different from other companies.Use Code: SEYIUPBRA10D for $$ off a[...]
So excited to do my first Chit-Chat Get Ready With Me (Makeup Edition)! I thought it’d be fun to look back at some of my makeup mistakes, and how I learned to fix them (flashback, crazy brows, ashy foundation, cllllll dat). What were some of your biggest makeup mistakes? Let me know in the comments💕 Brows: Ruby Kisses Brow Pencil Anastasia Beverly Hills Concealer in 5.0 Eye[...]
1 Corinthians 12 talks a lot about different kinds of gifts, and how they're all distributed. First we have to identify what some of them are. Verses 4-11 say: Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit; 5 and there are varieties of service, but the same Lord; 6 and there are varieties of activities, but it is the same God who empowers them all in everyone. 7 To each is gi[...]
I've been working on getting better at softer makeup looks, as I always tend to do something with a super carved lid and lots of glitter. I did this look last week, and then when I finished I was like: Dangit! This is fire. I shoulda filmed it. I took a poll on IG & Snapchat, and y'all wanted me to film it too so here it is! A super easy orange halo eye makeup look, ft. the Morp[...]
During their Black Friday Sale, I purchase some hair and a 360 Frontal from Kendra's Boutique. An 18" 360 Frontal, and 4 Bundles of Brazilian Body Wave Hair to be exact (2 x 26", 24" and 22"). I finally uploaded my review on the hair, after making into a wig and wearing it since around the 13th of December. This is my first 360 Frontal, but it definitely won't be my last. I really love[...]
I'm obsessed with faux fur. There's just something about a nice faux fur jacket that feels super fabulous, and it's a great way to make any outfit look a lil more bad and bougie. I've been getting some great deals on faux furs this year (fun fact: the most I've ever spent on a faux fur is $45), and I've been putting them to WERK now that it's wintertime here in the northeast.

Last night, I had the time of my life. I went to the Janet Jackson State of The World Tour in my city, and my sister and I wound up getting upgraded to FRONT ROW FLOOR CENTER SEATS. How? Why? Nobody but Jesus y'all, favor ain't fair. One minute my sister is dancing to the DJ's preshow music (mind you were on the top floor. In the booth, in the back, in the corner in the dark. Th[...]
I've been meaning to make a tutorial on my makeup routine for my long (12-18 hour days). I have really oily skin, so I use a lot of matte and long lasting products (along with powders) in my routine. I'm always on the go, so I usually don't have time to wash my face and re-do my makeup if I want to go out after school (and / or work). Thanks to these products, I don't have t[...]
I don't celebrate Halloween. When you grow up in Church (as I have), you already know it's not Halloween. It's Harvest Night / Hallelujah Night or whatever, but I did take my youth group out to see the Madea Boo 2 movie. Also, Chipotle always runs that $3 Burrito deal if you come in costume. This is always my incentive to dress up. My strategy is always to utilize as muc[...]
I've been waiting for it to feel like fall, so I could finally try rocking a trend I've never tried: Oversized Tops + Thigh High Boots. As a tall girl (I'm 5'9") it's hard to find things that are short enough to fit the trend, and yet long enough to not be escandaloso. Bear in mind that I always wear biker shorts underneath really short pieces, but still. When I first saw thi[...]
