An idea



I've had this particular idea that I have been going back and forth with in my mind for months! At first I didn't want to do it but then again I thought about it and I think I'm going to do it. At the end of the month I have to present a Marketing Plan to my class and this is the perfect time for me to present my idea...The only clue I'm giving is that it involves naturally curly hair. It's something I've grown passionate about and I'm excited! Once it's finished and I do more research and everything I will let you all know what it really is :) My only concern is I hope I get to do it first!!

Tell me these ain't BAD!



So I was on twitter a minute ago and this site called yournextshoes.com followed me (be sure to follow them on twitter and check out their site!!) and I checked out a post they did on some shoes and when I saw these I was like WOW! These are HOT!! lol Tell me what you all think!! Want them for yourself? Here is the site: http://www.shopbop.com/driven-open-toe-strappy-booties/vp/v=1/845524441864590.htm?folderID=2534374302024643&fm=other-shopbysize-viewall




What Happened?


The other night I was having a nice conversation on the phone with this guy that I used to like. While talking to him I started to reminisce about the old fun times we used to have. When I think back to the first day we met, he left me with the best first impression...he made me laugh! We used to go out on dates all the time, we laughed, I met important family members, he went to my graduation, met some of my closest family members and we had a crazy connection. It's like we already knew each other but we could never figure out how! Long story short...after all those good moments and "relationship" type events we never became a couple. I'm still trying to figure out what happened...

It's over now



It's now Sunday and school starts back on Monday. BoooOOOoo! lol I actually enjoyed my Spring Break this year. I was hardly home during the whole week! Let's see....I went skating with my family, went to the beach, went swimming at the pool, went out to some night clubs, went shopping, and had a blast with everything. So now it's back to reality...sigh* I would go into details but I'm sure nobody wants to read an essay lol. I hope you all enjoyed your week and weekends!

Spring Break



My Spring Break officially began for me Friday! I have nothing special planned as of right now. One thing I do know is that I'll never go to a BET Spring Bling again...blank stare*. It should be an interesting break...each year I always have some little story to tell. If you all are on Spring Break this time as well, enjoy it, and please be safe!

Easter




If Easter says anything to us today, it says this...You can put truth in a grave, but it won't stay there.... via (stylishIYours) twitter...Be Safe everyone...P.S. It took a minute finding a picture without bunny's and candy O_o

Just a thought...

As I was doing an assignment for class on how Nike reorganized their women's fitness segment and defined their actual target market, I thought about hair products. Random right? lol. Before I ever did  research and experimented with hair products on my natural hair I never cared for using products like Herbal Essences, Suave, Aussie, and all the others that I now use. I always used products marketed to women of color. I asked myself WHY!?!

It's not that I didn't want to try these brands it was just the way the products have always been advertised. In magazines, television ads, and even their websites I've never seen a diverse group of women. I never see Black women, or Asian women or any other ethnicity in any ads from these companies. Now correct me if I'm wrong and PLEASE show me an ad with someone I can relate to. The only company I've ever seen advertise with different ethnicity's is from Garnier.

I've always thought these products were just for white women with the long straight hair. I never tried their products because I didn't think it was made for me...a woman of color. Herbal Essence states on their website that they want to ensure an excellent experience for women around the world so why don't they show the various types of women from around the world that use their products? Hmmm...Just a thought...
