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?[...]
Tomorrow us regular folk get access to the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, and ya girl has been plotting. I've been sure to bring y'all all the tea on the sale from the beginning, and show you guys what's been on my radar, along with my beauty picks for the sale as well. Now that we're all about to have access, I want to show you guys my top five picks from the sale: 1. UGG Cozette Gen[...]
When I saw this "Make It Sexy" brown faux leather midi dress on Fashion Nova's website (Retail: $44.99 before coupons), I immediately fell in love. I really love leather and faux leather pieces, and I especially tend to gravitate towards non-traditional pieces. I feel like everybody goes for the staple leather jacket, but there's nothing like a sexy pair of leather pants or a leather dres[...]
Would you believe that this entire outfit head to toe was under $100?! I picked up this green tweed vest in-store at Zara during their summer sale for $12.99 (no longer available online, but check out a super similar option from SHEIN below!), and tried to hunt down the matching jacket and shorts as well to no avail. I remembered seeing the entire outfit before on Instagram, but was ki[...]
When I came across this Pink YSL inspired T on social media, I immediately envisioned it with a monochromatic-esque all pink outfit. I found a super cute bubblegum pink vinyl skirt at Nasty Gal for about $14.00 which was a great deal (if you have Unidays, they also offer a student discount for Nasty Gal!). I decided to accessorize with a pearl headband from H&M, which is curren[...]
