Accepting Yourself

Blessings to All,

I had a busy week this week.  Yesterday, I threw my sister a baby shower for her first child.  It was beautiful.  Although things didn't go as plan like me arriving 45 minutes late, but the shower was really nice.  It is hard to plan something for someone who is totally picky about what they eat.  My sister doesn't eat deli meat (that eliminates sandwiches), she only eats chicken breast, and she can't have certain cheeses.  So we end up serving pizza from a stone oven, Italian sodas, pasta salad, meatballs, fried chicken breast tenders, and a fruit tray.  Everyone was pleased.  Her colors were purple and purple.  I even went as far to wear a shade of purple.  I looked really cute.  I bought a blouse from my favorite store of course, Ann Taylor www.anntaylor.com and some leather leggings from Neiman Marcus.  I was rocker chic.  I finished the look with some Cole Hahn leather boots that blended in with the leggings.  After the day winded down, I reflected on how happy everyone was and how proud I am of my sisters.  I have watched them grow into two beautiful young ladies with families of their own.

I am so thankful for my life. I have a job that I love, a family, and friends that love me as well.  I took the day to clean out some of the paper clutter in my life and found a quote that  I written down on December 31, 2010:

Dooney and Bourke Leather Janine Satchel

Good Evening All, This week has been rather hectic.  Dealing with family issues and job interviews at the same time.  All is good and the Creator is in charge.  I had purchased a Dooney and Bourke bag about two months ago to store my keys, ipod and identification when I workout at the gym. The bag wasn't a great choice and I end up exchanging the bag for a Dooney and Bourke Leather Janine Satchel in gray. At first I didn't really like the Janine Satchel because of the size.  I love big bags; however since I have lost over 20 pounds, big bags are starting to overwhelm my stature.  I wanted a gray bag because I wear a lot of gray outfits and have been unable to find the perfect gray bag.  There are many different shades of gray that tend to be a little taupe or have a bluish undertone.  This bag is more on the heather gray side with the beige vachetta accent. It is the perfect bag for the warmer months.  The leather reminds me of the Prada S...

I Am Back

Blessings To Everyone, It has been two months since I last blogged.  I have been extremely busy with work.  I was working on a dress for success event with both my employers that includes Ann Taylor.  We created an initiative to teach graduates how to dress for interviews and what to wear for work.  At my primary job, we have to create initiatives along with my current job duties. The event was a success. One of the student models was offered a job at the new Loft flagship in Chicago. I also have been contemplating which way I would like this blog to go.  The blog started out as a self help for me and to inspire others as well. I want to focus on inspiring others. In the past two months I have been out of town to Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York.  Going to New York was one of the things I wanted to do before I leave this world.  I would say that it is part of my bucket list.  I enjoyed myself.  You know I love all thing...

Pre-Sales... After Thanksgiving

Blessings To Everyone, I hope all is well.  I am re-cooping from cooking Thanksgiving dinner and working a full eight hours at Ann Taylor on Black Friday.  It wasn't too crazy; however, the store became really busy within the last hour of my shift.  It takes a patient person to work retail when you have 6 different questions coming from 6 different women at the same time.  However, I welcome the challenge because it tests my limits.  Anyways, I am sitting here typing and stretching out my new Christian Louboutin Geo Pumps ( http://www.barneys.com/on/demandware.store/Sites-BNY-Site/default/Product-Show?pid=502682721 ).  As I mentioned in earlier posts, I have the most difficult time with shoes especially Christian Louboutin.  Every pair of Louboutins that I bought, I had to send them back to the store.  I like the Geo pump because of the low kitten heel.  These shoes are more realistic for me to wear than the sexy skyscraper shoes...
