New Wave Limited Edition Nail Polish by Marc Jacobs

If you know me...  then you know I am a bonafide #nailpolishaddict. I love everything from the caviar look, velvet shellac, to the latest craze of sea shell polish. 

I'm a total sucker for glitzy, shimmery and quick drying lacquer.

While perusing the aisle in Sephora, I decided to try on Marc Jacob's Limited Edition New Wave polish (because I'm a SUPER junkie for blue nail polish).

Word on the street is... this varnis gives you the wet look and it's an extreme wear polish (confetti is falling). 

Like any chiq (chick), I love ALL shiny wet polishes. Why you may ask? To me this means a top coat is not totally necessary (tap dancing). 

The moment I applied this Navy blue polish I fell in love (I know... Again lol). 

1. Easy to apply formula.
2. The shine was evident. (One coat and I was hooked).
3. The drying time was pretty speedy!! 

Of course this polish was not $ 1.99! It was $ 18.00 but I was worth it! Not to mention my daughter will definitely use this polish therefore, it's worth it (Mother and daughter moments are priceless). 

Long story short, I'm a happy camper!  

Take a look! Tell me your thoughts.

A bold color with vivid shine against my choqolate skin! 

Love it! 

THIS IS CHOQOLATE CHIQ APPROVED!

Btw... I recommend using a base coat (this color can stain your nails and a top coat (finish your mani with a top coat for extra protection).

Q.U.E.E.N Janelle Monae & Erykah Badu... (bow down)

Hello World!

Spring is in the air!! The sun is shining, warm temperatures are caressing my skin and I am feeling like a QUEEN!!

I am rocking hard to the song called, Q.U.E.E.N. by Janelle Monae AND Erykah Badu. I AM IN LOVE WITH Q.U.E.E.N.

The guitar grabs you by your face, the synthesizer sounds accompanied with that sophisticated funk is so refreshing to hear. That Prince-like style makes you want to dance along with the voices of Janelle and Erykah... THIS IS A HIT! The voices on this track! full of  SASS and SPUNK! I mean we are talking about Janelle and Erykah! AND let's not forget the MESSAGE in the song!

I love a HOT track with a MESSAGE.

This song is perfect for the spring time!

Don't throw shade... BUT this track makes you want to put your shades on, smile real big, close your eyes and twirl in the sunshine to this one!!

You can purchase this track on itunes (of course I downloaded my copy)

CLOGS, JEANS AND MY SASSY TEE! HERE I COME SPRING!

Hello World! Amongst my spring time fashion finds I ran across To Clog or Not to Clog
And I'm not talking about clogged drains... (lol)
One of the blogs that I follow called The Curvy Fashionista had a section on clogs http://thecurvyfashionista.mariedenee.com/2010/04/would-you-don-the-clog/
(check out Marie Denee, The Curvy Fashionista. She always has the latest and greatest on everything!!)

I started thinking... I'd clog... Some clogs are really cute and some are not!

So here are the cute ones I found online

APRIL 1ST - ITS SPRING TIME

It’s Spring! It’s April! The sun is coming out every now and again… Blue skies…
My type of atmosphere! Spring time always puts a lil pep in my step. Something about the sunlight I think. Time to shed the winter cover ups and time to reveal a lil more skin lol!
(don’t forget your sun block folks)
Who can step into spring without stepping into spring with new spring time shoes!!
Not sure if all of you know… I have a shoe habit (due to the economy I have really slowed down). I love shoes!! I have more shoes then clothes (yep… that’s not good… I totally agree with you)
I hear that Spring 2010 Shoe Trend is pretty much every shoe we ever had LOL!
Check out these!
