Hello my dear lovely readers. I know that I probably sound like a broken record when I keep saying that I am not neglecting you guys. You guys have been holding me down and grounded for the longest time & even though I am venturing into new territories with YouTube and my job...writing will ALWAYS be my number one love. 

With that being said...let's catch up. I recently just wrapped up filming another movie with BET and whilst it isn't my first film by all means or being on set the atmosphere was completely different from what I was used to. Granted it was my first time freelancing for the company that the movie was filmed under and it as also my first time working on a film that was based on someones actual life. The crazy thing is that listening to her story and speaking to her you would NEVER in a million years think that she had been through everything that she had been through. 

Since we were filming I had to take a break from instagram & YouTube because my work schedule was all over the place and all I wanted to do was sleep on the days that I had off. So, with that being said I am coming back to YouTube and instagram with a bang lol. As far as YouTube goes I am still posting 1 video per week. I have been staying home a lot but I really want to get better at filming and editing but since its starting to feel like Summer...I really don't feel like leaving my house to venture out into the heat. I can easily find something to shoot around the apartment that doesn't require me going outside to sweat like a mad woman. I also feel like I am losing an insane amount of energy whenever I step into the heat. I feel drained of life. Not the best feeling in the world.

I am pretty excited to be taking a beach trip with some of my friends before filming our new movie. Even though it's not the Caribbean ( you will never catch me in the water in the states ) I still have fun playing beach volleyball, drinking and of course just hanging out with my friends. Plus you guys already know that I will be vlogging the whole trip so stay tuned for that.

Can you believe that we are already on episode 10 of the “Off-Air Vlog” series?!

Hello my lovely readers! I have posted a new video on my channel. It’s a super chill vlog ( I think that I mention this quite often about my vlogs ) but yeah nothing extreme because we all know that COVID is still happening. I actually got back on YouTube because COVID happened. At the time when I started my channel I didn’t know what direction I was going in. Did I want to make it a travel vlog, fashion related, tech etc. Honestly, even now I want to start experiencing life again bit by bit. This is why a lot of my content on my channel area vlogs. I like making them...sharing little tid bits of my life. So, I hope that you guys enjoy!

I don’t think I can really remember when I had regular hair. Well...maybe when I was younger but in my early 20’s ( man it feels weird saying that ) I loved coloring my hair so many different colors. From blue to purple, pink, green, lavender, burgundy, red...orange you name it...

This time I partnered with a company named Overtone to pick my next hair colour. Overtone is a brand that I have heard about & seen all over instagram and I thought that it was cool that you can dye your hair another colour without having to result to permanent colour or even bleaching your hair. 

You can take a quiz to figure out what your next hair colour should be & for me it was pretty simple because I was coming from red hair... I did bleach it a little to lighten it up so the orange could really show. 

You can take the colour quiz here ( I honestly should have picked Ginger cause that’s the colour I wanted next! ) If you guys are interested in the colour I chose then you can purchase it here

Overall I love the outcome of my hair and I think I will be using Overtone for awhile! So, maybe once I am done with orange I will test out Ginger!

Hello it’s me. Someone who has become very invisible on her own blog. We’re all the way in March & I haven't even written any posts for the month of February. Which I should probably go back and re-add all of my YouTube videos that I have posted on my channel. 

In this video...I met up with an old friend from high school & her kids. We grabbed lunch, caught up and took the kids to the park whilst they played and we just talked some more. I love friendships that even though we haven't seen or spoken to each other in awhile we can still pick up where we left off without things being awkward. I cherish those kinds of friendships.

I miss writing. It’s safe to say that I honestly miss just sitting down and writing out my thoughts either on here on on actual paper. Again, I know that I said that I wasn’t going to do any New Year Resolutions ( which you can read that blog post here ) but I do want to start writing more blog posts this year. I did slack a lot last year especially when Covid hit. I did write a few blog posts but I want to write at least 8-10 blog posts a month! 

I know that it seems like a lot but it gives me something to do since were on lockdown again and with the attempt on the Capitol things have been extra tough. I have no reason to leave my apartment so I have been a little slow on vlogging and losing my vlogging camera as well...things were looking grim BUT I have a spare camera and hopefully things will be a little bit more normal after the Inauguration. 

With the continuation of the pandemic that doesn’t seem to have to have an end in sight. I have to reevaluate my life and the things that are important to me. I want to spend time with my family, I want to be able to take a trip and see the sights. The first place on my list of places that I want to travel to is definitely Chicago. I think I fell in love with the idea of traveling to Chicago once the collaboration to go fell through. I think that just heightened my fire to go even more. 

Right now I am focusing more on blogging and gaining more momentum on my YouTube channel. I have a lot of video ideas planned out...I just haven’t had the time to sit down and film any of them yet. That could also be because of laziness. Something I know I have to work on.

It’s no surprise that Shackets ( Shirt + Jacket ) have invaded my wardrobe. I think my obsession has reached an all time high seeing as though I definitely want one in every single colour. Okay, well maybe not EVERY colour but once I get my hands on a camel brown, navy blue and a sage green THEN and only THEN will my collection be completed! The only issue is...I made a resolution to not spend any money on new clothing for the WHOLE YEAR! Being a fashion blogger/content creator I have realized that I have spent so much money on clothing trying to keep up with the trends when I could have just put together items from in my wardrobe already. SO, I made a little deal with myself to see if this was something that I could accomplish.

Ah January.

The month where it gets unbelievably cold ( which I love...I am a winter baby ) and Winter Fashion comes into play. I am a sucker for cute boots, chunky knits, my love for bucket hats & beanies and of course the piece that ties everything together...outwear. 

Rather than listing all of my favorites items in this blog post; I figured I would highlight each one in their own blog post. That way I can get back into writing more. I love the feeling of sitting down and writing out all the words that come to mind. 

So, in this post I am sharing some of my favorite all time Winter Boots ( well more like Fall & Winter ). Happy shopping lovelies.

Wow, I cannot believe that today is my birthday. 1 year before my dirty 30! If you guys didn’t catch that...I am currently 29 years young. I am not going to lie...I didn’t want to celebrate my birthday today because so many unfortunate things has been happening to me lately from the car accident to losing my camera with all my work on it. You know what they say...bad things comes in 3’s. I think deep down I am waiting for the last unfortunate accident for the month to happen. I just want to get it over with so that way I can enjoy the rest of the year. 

On the bright side there are a lot of things that I am thankful for. My health, my family ( even though we drive each other crazy ) and the fact that I am still able to work during this pandemic. 
I also want to thank you guys for your continuous support because without you guys I wouldn’t be able to do what I do. So, massive thank you to you guys!! 

Can you all believe that this start back in 2014? I never thought that I would be where I am today. Doing what I love full time! I cannot wait to share everything I have in store with you guys this year!

It’s 2021 and I am slightly freaking out. Not only is my birthday in 9 days but I really wanted to take a trip to a whole new state for my birthday but my plans fell through. Which is okay because COVID is back with a vengeance. They said a new strand of COVID was found in the UK but now they said they have seen the new strain now in LA! It’s only a matter of time before this new mutated strain has spread like wildfire through the States.  

The first week of January started off horribly. I welcomed the New Year with my Mum but unfortunately 2 days ago ( now 3 days since this is being posted the following day ) my little brother and I got into a nasty car accident. Everything happened so fast. We’re both fine but I did get a little injured but not severely thank god. 

I know that I said in my last blog post that I wasn’t going to be making any New Year Resolutions....but I ended up changing my mind and making a small list. I will be sharing my list on my YouTube channel and of course sharing it here with all of my lovely readers as well. Stay tuned & stay safe! 🤎
