D.I.Y Floral Halo

Hello my fellow readers! Welcome to my first DIY and hopefully not the last. Here's the story to what inspired me to make this wonderful floral halo. 

So me, my girl Kimiya and my good girlfriend Sherri from sherriamour  went shopping and spotted so many fun floral headbands. But they were foolishly priced from $5-$10 bucks (A little too rich for my blood) So I decided to go out to my good ole dollarstore, purchase a few bunches of flowers and make my own halo! Everything, including the glue gun, cost me a whoppin' $13 bucks! It's so easy to make and you can make a ton!They also make great gifts. Here's how you can make your own...(My apologies, I think I mighta missed a step or two :/ )

SUPPLIES: Twine, plastic flowers, elastic headbands, felt, scissors, cutters (all of which you can purchase from your local dollarstore) glue gun ($4 from walmart)

2. Cut the head of the flower from the stem. I used about 5-6 flowers per headband

3. Take your felt and cut out 1" circles

4. Using your twine measure the circumference of your head. Minus 4"

5. Cut out 4" of the elastic headband  

6. Cut out a small rectangle of felt and using your glue gun glue the twine, elastic and felt together

7. Now take the 1" circle you cut out earlier, your flower and glue gun and sandwich the twine in-between. 

8. And your done! You can fun with yours, add a ton of flowers, mix up the colors. Do whatever your heart desires! Happy DIYing!

And I'm ready to get back into the groove of things.

The"it" Bag

Ever since I got a camera I wanted a decent looking bag to carry it in and dis one's real nice ;) THEIT bossi bag has got's the fixings for the average camera inside yet it looks like a purse on the outskirts. And no one would ever know! And it comes in a range of different colors. But this bag costs a penny! Ringing in at $159 (A little too rich for my blood) So when I came across this giveaway hosted by Anna from IHOD You best believe I hopped on the bandwagon and entered that contest! Go enter, it's easy!...Just don't win, I want it!

Throwback Thursday: Deee-Lite - Groove Is In The Heart

"How do you say deee-groovy? How do you say deee-gorgeous?!"

Who remembers this funky trio and their one hit wonder club hit? For some reason this dang song has been playing through my head allll day! And now it's time to pass it on to you guys! Muhahaha!

Am I wearing pants?

I found this hilarious post about leggings/tights compared to pants on BuzzFeed. What do I think you ask? Well I say meh! Who am I to tell you what to wear? Wear whatever you want to wear however you wish to wear it. Except (and these are the only exceptions) if you're sporting a camel toe, or a mean VPL (visable panty line)

What are your thoughts on leggings? Think we should you keep your bum covered?

Speaking of camel toes...Anyone remember this song?

Over The Weekend

Hello everybody! Good times this weekend ya'll! My good friend Amber invited us to check out The Noble Thiefs in concert. They're my new favorite ;) Their music is a mix between 50's doo wop and ska, rock...best I can explain it lol. They put on such an energetic show that everybody was up dancing. Their stage voice is even enticing, kinda reminds me of the way Christina Aguilera or Beyonce would work up their audience. You know, that soulful, boisterous, sassy voice. "Everybody, say hellooo to Jonathan on the trombone!" ~ "This song...goes out to all the wonderful ladies in the audience tonight!"

Ain't he cute?! Say hi to baby Anders! I notice whenever I go to parties I don't start taking pictures until the bitter end. Well at least it's something right? I went to my friend, Alexis, baby shower. It was such a cute shower, with great food and people. Seeing all the momma's and cute babies there makes me want to have a little caramel bundle of cuteness of my own!

Over the weekend

My bad! This was actually my weekend 2 weekends ago but imma still share it. With the boy outta town for the week I have been having me some quality time with my momma and sis. On Friday me and my baby sis got the munches and took a late night drive down to Carlos and Murphy's restaurant for a heaping plate of hot, cheesy, spicy nachos. Let me tell you! We did not walk away unsatisfied. Now I did capture this moment on film. But where are these pictures?! Lord only knows.

On Saturday a few friends and I attended the last sandbox magazine party. There were so many intriguing faces in the crowd and they were dressed to impress! My outfit definitely did not bring it. But other then the way I was dressed the party turned out to be good times! The music was too good. It's quite refreshing to hear some fun, old school beats like MJ, Cool and the gang, and Deee-Lite.

There was also performances from this gal here Flo, she performed a live show which was soo good. Check out that hair!

Everybody look! It's Raezavel from cheapthrills (such a blurry pic lol)

Another live performance from The Treble

We kinda look like twins! Love it lol
