Ready or Not!<div>It was a Saturday afternoon... about seven years ago, while riding on a train in NYC, a musician was playing a beautiful song in my train car. I don't remember which instrument he was playing, but I do remember enjoying it! I remember feeling as though he were one of the most talented subway musicians around. As he walked throughout the train car to collect donations for his 'performance', he stopped in front of me. Unfortunately, I did not have anything for him, but he apparently had something for me. He began to speak to my spirit, words of encouragement and validation. </div><div><br></div><div>-Now, under normal circumstances, great performance or not, there's NO WAY that I would have been comfortable with it, nor would I have received any type of message from a stranger on the train in NYC... Certainly not a pan-handler! I'd learned, after moving to Bed-Stuy several years prior, to rock my 'NYC grill'... Especially for these types of situations! <span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">You know, that expression that anyone moving to NYC must must adopt in order to fit in, because <i>God forbid you're actually caught smiling in the streets and speaking to strangers! ...lol!</i> The expression that says what true New Yorkers say so effortlessly, "I am NOT approachable; leave me alone!"-</span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">However, the peace that came upon me through his words confirmed that it was, indeed, a message sent from God... An on-time one at that! He confirmed many things for me, as if he were able to see through my 'grill'... straight to my heart. He ended the prophecy with, "You are a First Lady... You hear me? A First Lady!"</span></div><div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghAPgFo8Fci4o8CZTf9Aoqs2JRxgnvQOyzJyTIqJh4A7bZfWy1OGRUTMsOsInf0LCSmInkWxjmQOBYcjafhxyrYCjRNh_3z4c09IOnaK7V9fYMrdZZl-rq9BhDZdhuigtneuOU0p5Zo8Q/s640/blogger-image-541288676.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghAPgFo8Fci4o8CZTf9Aoqs2JRxgnvQOyzJyTIqJh4A7bZfWy1OGRUTMsOsInf0LCSmInkWxjmQOBYcjafhxyrYCjRNh_3z4c09IOnaK7V9fYMrdZZl-rq9BhDZdhuigtneuOU0p5Zo8Q/s640/blogger-image-541288676.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Well, I received that prophecy. Although the messenger wasn't typical, I was still able to identify the spirit from which the message came. Funny thing is I knew I wasn't ready to be a First Lady, so I began questioning if maybe he meant it metaphorically. Now... seven years later and still single, I'm realizing that God also knew I wasn't ready, and DUH, that's exactly why I'm still single! As much as I've wanted to join the marriage ranks and circles of some of my besties, I understand that He is still working on me! My trials, my tests, my droughts... It's all for my making! </span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">I am grateful and so excited to see what the future holds, because I know that GREATER is coming! And as far as that First Lady hat... I think I'm juussstt about ready to wear it! I guess we'll soon see the context of that Word that was brought to me that Saturday afternoon... and the blessings that it will bring. Either way, you already know...</span></div><div><br></div><div>I will do it with Style, and seal it with a Kiss!!</div><div><br></div><div><br></div>She's Got Class!http://www.blogger.com/profile/18121276527648386213noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6268991818839546556.post-18494914879720793742015-02-05T12:31:00.001-05:002015-02-05T12:31:58.979-05:00In Honor of TBT... Here's a REPOST... <br />
When There's More in His Closet Than Suits and Ties... (A Little Thursday Humor...lol)<br />
<br />
More and more we're finding that our men, our friends' men, or just men we happen to know as otherwise HETERO... are GAY!!! <strong><em>OMG!!! WTF!!!</em></strong><br />
<br />
Have you ever been in a situation that was a bit uncomfortable for you accept? Has your man ever done or said something that was an automatic RED FLAG... but either in denial, OR an effort to not humiliate him, OR in respect of his E.G.O... OR just <em>total shock</em>, you let it slide??<br />
<br />
Have you ever wondered... even for a half-second... if your man was GAY? Worried that what your friends keep saying about him being too pretty to be STRAIGHT, may actually be TRUE!! Does it totally freak you out to think that his "Feminine Touch" may come from something other than growing up w/a house full of gals? ...Because after all, "Can't Nobody... Love You Better... Make You Happy... Make You Feel This WA-AYYY!!"<br />
<br />
Well ladies, it's time to Open Up His Closet Doors... and really take a look inside! Here are a few things to look for... lol!! (Insert Wendy's sound effects for the ultimate hilarious experience!) FYI...While some of the signs seem obvious, many women are blinded by LOVE!<br />

<br />
<br />
<strong>1)</strong> He listens to Wendy Williams everyday at work, and has officially begun to say "How U Doin'??" on a regular basis!! <strong><em>("Aurriight!!")</em></strong><br />
<br />
<strong>2)</strong> His eyes are absolutely gorgeous... always have been, but you actually start to think that you see mascara on them tonight!!! (...GASP!!! ...now BREATHE!!!) No way!!! So you pretend to remove something from the corner of his eye, and almost faint when you see a trace of black on your finger tip!! <strong><em>("I like boys")</em></strong><br />
<br />
<strong>3)</strong> His mani-pedi routine has become more regular than yours, and he even agrees to getting a WAX with you!! <strong><em>("How U doin'??")</em></strong><br />
<br />
<strong>4)</strong> His fashion sense is better than yours! ...and I don't just mean that he has great taste!! <strong><em>("Aurriight!")</em></strong><br />
<br />
<strong>5)</strong> The two of you are out to dinner, and after a few drinks you find his eyes wandering. You decide, after the second time, to turn around and see this sexy chick that's got your drunk man's attention... ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT IT"S ANOTHER MAN!!!!! <strong><em>("I-I-I-I-I-I-I... I'm GAY!!!")</em></strong><br />
<br />
<strong>6)</strong> One or more of his <strong><em>closest</em></strong> male friends is GAY!! <strong><em>("I like boys!")</em></strong><br />
<br />
<strong>7)</strong> He has EVER referred to you as, or started a sentence with, <em>"Gurrll..."</em> or <em>"Chillle..."</em>!! <strong><em>(Aurriight!")</em></strong><br />
<br />
<strong>8)</strong> You go out to a karaoke bar, and after you have just finished belting out your own rendition of <em>I Am Telling You</em>, your man comes behind you... kisses you on the neck and takes the mic away from you. You're so excited that he's actually agreed to sing this time, but when the music starts to play, you can't help but think that they've got the wrong song. UNTIL HE STARTS TO SING!!! Why is your man singing Aretha's version of <em>I Will Survive</em>!! "At first I was afraid, I was petrified..." is definitely what's going on in your head RIGHT NOW!!! <strong><em>("How U Doin'?")</em></strong><br />
<br />
<strong>9)</strong> He's been spending more time with TYRONE!!! ...and unless, or shall I say <em>even if</em> Tyrone is really Tiffany, you've got yourself a bit of a situation here!! New sound effect required for this one... <strong><em>("To the Left, To the Left!!")</em></strong><br />
<br />
<strong>10)</strong> You've agreed to bring some freak into the bedroom and to role-play his secret fantasy... only you don't know what it is yet. It can't be that bad though, because you told him that you were only down if it didn't involve a third party. <strong><em>SUPRIIISSE!!!!! </em></strong>He came home with a sexy fire girl costume, and (DRUMROLL!!!) ...a STRAP-ON!! <strong><em>("I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I'm GAY!!!")</em></strong><br />
<br />
<br />
OK... now what do you do if you realize that the signs are CLEAR... the flags are IN YOUR FACE... and you're suddenly HEARTBROKEN??? Unfortunately, there's not much that you can do... there's no "Working this out!" ...You can't put it on him any better, and expect him to CHANGE!! You have to GET OUT! ...NOW! ...I SAID NOW!!!<br />
<br />
This may be one of the ONLY situations where you two can truly benefit from 'just being friends'!<br />
<br />
<em>(shout-out to Wendy Williams... friend in my head!! ...even though I can totally see us having a love/hate relationship!! Gotta love her...lol!) </em><br />
<em><br /></em>
<em>**...BTW, This original post was written during her WBLS radio show days... you'd need to be familiar to fully understand the sound effects!**</em><br />

I found that my hair grew much faster without a relaxer than it ever did with one. Luckily for me, since I really had ZERO interest in cutting all of my hair off! The real big chop was not an option for me. I did, however, wear a half wig for most of those 11 months while in transition. It was a great way for me to allow my hair to have a break, as I only kept the front bang out to blend while the rest stayed braided. It also allowed me to stay 'corporate' and 'comfortable' during the transition stage where I had absolutely no clue what to do with my hair! When I wasn't wearing the half wig, I did a braid-set... cornrowing my hair back while wet (one of my favorite styles with and without a relaxer). </span></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">I continued to use the same products that I used when I had a relaxer - Creme of Nature Moisturizing shampoo, Pantene conditioner, and Moroccan oil - and I had a single stylist and washer at the salon, since I found it really difficult to wash my hair by myself. I might also add that although I made the decision to go natural (aka without a relaxer or any other chemicals in my hair), I still loved my straight hair, and I really didn't know what to do with it otherwise. Needless to say, I was a 'natural who straightens' for the first four years, only really allowing my hair to 'just be' in the summertime... Curly ponytails and messy up-do's forced by humidity. Otherwise, I would get a wash and blow, and my hair would be just as straight as when I had a perm, so that was perfect for me. The problem came when I wanted to start doing the 'wash-and-go' that so many other natural divas were doing. I quickly noticed that my curl patterns were all over the place because I had been straightening!</span></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">So one day, I just decided to allow my hair to be free... Let it 'do what it do'! Since I was free-lancing and working mostly from home at the time, that decision came easily. I didn't need my hair straightened as often, nor could I afford it as often anyway. Although the back of my hair was still more tightly coiled than the rest of my hair, I began to see more of a consistency in my curl pattern when I stopped straightening it... and I loved it! I still straighten my hair about 3-4 times a year, so that I can trim it, but I can finally say that I'm actually beginning to EMBRACE my natural 'do! Curly, frizzy, big, or straight... Braided, twisted, or slicked into a neat bun... There is no way I'd be able to enjoy this versatility with relaxed hair. It's amazing!</span></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiK8wqkds2IfyiL7X72iv1-_V5j1zUKCYcr9drfqlgFkmGzIcV_MJP-34L0scvymOSy8uTzexReNXmYDSyHgQEtxBVJH7NFkAxadPZgspVStkMaNDlGS9RHzcEVX0gWobEQyRMT-dPJfcM/s640/blogger-image--723810959.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><font color="#000000"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiK8wqkds2IfyiL7X72iv1-_V5j1zUKCYcr9drfqlgFkmGzIcV_MJP-34L0scvymOSy8uTzexReNXmYDSyHgQEtxBVJH7NFkAxadPZgspVStkMaNDlGS9RHzcEVX0gWobEQyRMT-dPJfcM/s640/blogger-image--723810959.jpg"></font></a></div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Even at 7 years, it's still a journey!

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
OK, so we're Super Busy Superwomen... does that really excuse us from missing the mark on beauty? Absolutely NOT!! We're still fabulous, and must maintain a certain level of 'fabulosity' and class at all times!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I'm going to have to say that there are not too many things that I hate more than to see a well put-together, beautiful, professional woman with obviously chipped nail polish!!! URGHH! ...and to say that it's in the name of fashion is a complete insult and total beauty faux-pas!! Unless you're in costume, on a runway, or just going for the "I'm a nervous, irresponsible, immature wreck who picks at her nail polish and thinks that it's OK... AND I couldn't care less about my image nor what you think about what my image is portraying" -look, there is no real-life trend that warrants a chipped nail! So fine... that might be a bit extreme, but really, if you're over 21 and would like to be taken seriously as a lady (in life, work, dating, fashion, etc...) then you should really not act oblivious to the big deals that the simple details carry! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-s5W9b8R61isLBIrqt8JuJ_UCXn_QR8a-6D-wccp6ppdNYgdudQ3WykYZWnkXIYK-xgMLTms-8zHpe3YYGukF8j53OHVca1xidIJHRkiSo0cl9L_SHc_y0NB4qioBBck7d67mHvG73RM/s640/blogger-image--1346521613.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-s5W9b8R61isLBIrqt8JuJ_UCXn_QR8a-6D-wccp6ppdNYgdudQ3WykYZWnkXIYK-xgMLTms-8zHpe3YYGukF8j53OHVca1xidIJHRkiSo0cl9L_SHc_y0NB4qioBBck7d67mHvG73RM/s640/blogger-image--1346521613.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
As women, we're naturally ready for the normal beauty slip-ups. We carry our most beautiful bag of tricks, fully equipped for that unfortunate moment. "<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Oh no, my hair is a mess... </span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">My make-up needs a refresh... </span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Ugh, I have food in my teeth... Damn, those onions were delish in my salad, but my breath, UGHHH... </span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">My lips are chapped... </span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">My hands are in serious need of moisture..."</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">So why slip up when it comes to our nails? That moment is bound to come around when we can least afford it, "<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">OMG... my nail polish has chipped, and I don't have an extra minute to waste" </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
With work, school, interviews, motherhood, cooking, laundry, cleaning, gym, da-ta-da-da-da, the list goes on... even if you're on your way to get your mani-pedi... there's no reason that you have to be caught out there! Along with your brush, floss, lip balm mints, and lotion, you absolutely MUST pick up a pack of nail polish remover pads. Throw them in your cosmetic bag, or have one stashed in each purse, but please... </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Never leave home without 'em! Unless you're carrying your nail polish for touch-ups or a quick fix, a clean bare nail is always better than a tacky chipped nail! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">But that's just my opinion... Lol!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I say a lady should always be classy and stay polished...</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">But please remember this...</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Do it with Style, and Seal it with a Kiss!</div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">So excited... this year I made a wreath!!!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Yay!!! So I was inspired to make a wreath from scratch this year... something I've never done before. A little overwhelmed by all of the leftover branches that were cut from my Christmas tree, and absolutely no clue where to start, it took me about two weeks to begin this project. Thank God it only took me about two hours to complete it! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used two wire hangers and formed them into circles... this was the base. Since I waited two weeks to begin this project, I had some pretty dry branches sitting in the living room, so we started out by moistening the branches. After allowing them to sit in a bucket of water for a few minutes, I took them out one-by-one, and began to wrap (weave) them around the hangers and each other. Since I didn't have any floral wires, I used twist ties from the storage baggies. I used them to connect the branches, as needed. I added a few decorations once that was done... and VOILA! My homemade wreath!<br />
<br />
Try it yourself! It was simple, and didn't take long at all!<br />
...Do it with Style, and Seal it with a Kiss!</div>

<br />
I would like to take a moment to send my deepest condolences and prayers to all of the families who suffered a loss at the Sandy Hook Elementary School Massacre in Connecticut! I also wanted to share this t-shirt that I came across (on Facebook)... the irony is saddening! As a mother, it pains me to know that such violence is alive, and there's often times nothing that we can do about it! If the schools don't want to incorporate God in prayer, then you have to be sure to send Him with your children... give them His covering. This tragedy could have hit anywhere, but when it hits sooo close to home it definitely brings a new perspective. I know this vicious event is arousing conversations of absolutely necessary gun law changes, but it goes so much deeper than that! A sick individual slaughtered 28 people (an entire class of 6 and 7 yr. old first graders - 20 children and 8 adults including himself) for no logical reason. Gun laws would not have healed him! We need to get back to basics...<br />
<br />
1. <b>Know your children... </b>the signs of this young man needing help or attention were there way before this incident! As parents and guardians, we can not ignore or overlook these signs... they are merely a small part of the bigger picture, and in this case, that lead to extreme tragedy! Mothers, use your intuition, and listen to what others may be saying. This does not mean that you have to believe everything that you hear, but be AWARE! Fathers, be present! ...In the conversation, in the moment, in the picture! Don't be such a disciplinarian that your children don't want to (or know how to) speak to you! <br />
<br />
2. <b>Love your children...</b> Invite and Ignite LOVE!! Let them know that they are loved! Be active in their lives, override their negativity and rebelliousness with love. Converse with them and spend time with them! Understand and relate to the way your child gives and receives love. Parents, educators, and anyone dealing with children should pick up the book, <i>The 5 Love Languages of Children</i>, by Dr. Gary Chapman and Dr. Ross Campbell. Own it, read it, and apply it! Be the best friend that your children can confide in!<br />
<br />
3. <b>Instill in them the fear of God!</b> If you expect your children to love, respect, honor, and obey you, they first must know what true love is... what true sacrifice is, and the gift of love that God gave the world... <br />
<br />
No one said that parenting is easy! Unfortunately, we can not protect our children every step of the way. <b>All we can do is our best</b>... but there are no copouts in parenting... no excuses... we can't let the ball drop so often that we don't even know what game is being played anymore! We have to be involved, we have to be committed, we have to genuinely care, and always continue to pray!<br />
<br />
Once again, my heart and prayers go out to the parents and families of those lost, and to the nation of those touched as a result of this violence! We can only hope that gun laws will be put in place to make the process of obtaining these type of assault weapons nearly impossible, especially for mentally ill or 'mentally bruised' individuals. However, we have the power to make changes in our children, families, and future! We are obligated to impart this change. Be the parents that our children need us to be... that this nation needs us to be... and don't stop in your own home... Spread the Love! -Please remember this... Do it with Style, and Seal it with a Kiss!<br />

Recession?? Ummm... I'm sorry I don't understand! The state of our union will <em>hardly</em> impact the state of our wardrobe. Fashion is about EXPRESSION, and as any true fashionista knows... that definitely comes from within! Beauty that lives on the inside will at all times be reflected on the outside. So regardless... even if she's just been laid off, her sense of style will never be severed!<br /><br />This week every one is a super diva fashionista, and will be flaunting their newly purchased spring '09 trends fresh off of the racks of Madison or Fifth to prove it! For many, Fashion Week is an open opportunity to express their own personal sense of style, and although under normal circumstances some of these outbursts would be COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE, this week it's <strong>honored</strong>! In fact, if it's unique enough or fab enough, it may even be featured in the next morning's Daily! The fashion show is clearly ON and OFF of the runways! So while some will merely be affected by the chaotic fabulousness of Fashion this week, totally oblivious to the Tents, the after-parties, wondering why there are so many celebs and models in town, etc... the True Fashionista LIVES for it!<br /><br />Of course, this year we'll see much smaller shows with a lot more exclusivity... less seats, more celebrities, more socialites, and TOP-PAYING CUSTOMERS. Designers are following the lead of the retailers that they are partnering with... they're realizing that if buyers and marketing professionals are dropping like flies, then it's definitely time to reach out to the 'spenders' directly! So if you're not in the industry, or don't already have your invites and seat assignments, you'll probably just want to make sure you tune in online. Check out style.com (among many others) for daily updates of all of the Fall '09 runway shows!<br /><br />Either way... flaunt your style, and express your fashion! ...and not just next week... but LET IT LIVE! Whether your garbs come from H&M or Oscar de la Renta, allow your inner-beauty to shine through. She knows how to define the real you!<br /><br />but please remember this...<br /><strong><em>Do it with STYLE, and seal it with a KISS!</em></strong></div><div> </div><div></div><div><span style="font-size:78%;">photo by style.com - Peter Som runway show Fall 09</span></div>She's Got Class!http://www.blogger.com/profile/18121276527648386213noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6268991818839546556.post-15621305654052076662008-12-16T13:25:00.005-05:002012-12-13T03:38:49.174-05:00My Love, My Love<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgl42VrHriqVdq57EGYRsDTENO0orwbMzgwlQqUWjJNOyH8XpSuyWUDs-SW7KDtzUg5PsjpsqW4gKo3jG02zNyR8mU554iRGbRc1Pzdg7nPBqEjFz6iHcOe7y9aoZY4wvHb8fktYWK830c/s1600-h/heart.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5365005784768149618" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgl42VrHriqVdq57EGYRsDTENO0orwbMzgwlQqUWjJNOyH8XpSuyWUDs-SW7KDtzUg5PsjpsqW4gKo3jG02zNyR8mU554iRGbRc1Pzdg7nPBqEjFz6iHcOe7y9aoZY4wvHb8fktYWK830c/s400/heart.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; float: right; height: 114px; margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; width: 170px;" /></a><br />
<div>
It's been a long time since I've felt LOVE... seen LOVE... known LOVE</div>
<br />
<div>
His smell, his kiss, his touch... such a distant LOVE </div>
<br />
<div>
Missing LOVE... wanting LOVE... needing LOVE</div>
<br />
<div>
TO SURVIVE! </div>
<div>
</div>
<br />
<div>
So what do you do... how do you react when this 'stranger' begins to intrude in your life unexpectedly? </div>
<div>
</div>
<br />
I mean really, we all want love... regardless of whether we choose to admit it or not. For some of us it's about companionship and security... for some superficial minds, it's only about a wedding... but in almost all cases, we expect this love to come with a commitment. A commitment of honesty and open communication, trust and loyalty, respect and exclusivity... you know the basic relationship staples. Is this too much to ask? <em>Seriously... is that too much to ask???<br /></em><br />
<div>
<em></em> </div>
Of course it's easy to blame men, after all, they're the ones doing all of the cheating and lying... destroying our trust, and ruining us for the next man... ruining us for real LOVE, right? <strong>WRONG!!</strong> (OK, OK... hear me out!)<br />
<div>
</div>
<br />
<div>
Ladies, it's time to look deeply within. Certainly, there may be times when we will give our heart to LOVE. We will trust our souls with LOVE, and we will be betrayed by, or even denied LOVE! But it's<span style="font-style: italic;"> our</span> LOVE that makes us unique... its' <span style="font-style: italic;">our</span> LOVE that makes us special, and it's the willingness to renew, refresh, and revive this LOVE that not only keeps us going but defines us as women!!!<br />
<br />
So while there may often be jerks who try to take advantage of our LOVE or abuse our LOVE, we must never make the mistake of being the ones to take our own LOVE for granted! Our LOVE is our own... it is to be cherished and protected, yet still allowed to have a mind of it's own. And damn, don't we know it has a mind of it's own. Our heart definitely loves without permission, but why not let it? As long as we are not being poisoned by a toxic man or relationship (i.e. the mental, physical, or verbal abuser; the overly jealous and insecure; the self-obsessed; the chronic gambler; the alcoholic; the drug-abuser and the free-loader... all topics of a separate blog! ...lol) we can not over-indulge in LOVE... and that's our super power. Our LOVE is rechargeable... with an unlimited supply!<br />
<br />
The problem comes when we forget LOVE. When we forget that we live and breathe LOVE, and we don't have to look for LOVE or wait for LOVE to survive. We <span style="font-style: italic;">are</span> LOVE!! <span style="font-weight: bold;">Once we realize and understand that our LOVE regenerates and is fueled </span><span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">only</span><span style="font-weight: bold;"> by self-love, then we have the ability to tap into that unlimited supply!</span> We have found the key to LOVE!<br />
<br />
So ladies, <span style="font-weight: bold;">don't lose your key!</span> Men do not control how, when, or why we LOVE... nor do they control how, when, or why we refuse to LOVE! They only wish they had that much power... but only <span style="font-style: italic;">you</span> have the key!<br />
<br />
So feel LOVE... See LOVE... Know LOVE... <span style="font-style: italic;">and he'll need you</span>... TO SURVIVE!<br />
<br />
...and please remember this,<br />
Do it with STYLE, and seal it with a KISS!!<br />

"Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia has killed Blueprint. The magazine was billed as a "fresh, fun guide to personal style"... but staffers were told that MSLO (Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Inc.) had "misjudged the market." Instead, Blueprint is being folded back into Martha Stewart Weddings."<br /><br />"Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia Inc. today announced strategic plans for two of its publications for 2008. Going forward, the company will produce Blueprint as focused special interest issues within the home category, which it will introduce to brides-to-be through its established Martha Stewart Weddings magazine. Bluelines, the Blueprint blog, will continue and the company anticipates growing Blueprint digital content across its websites. Blueprint magazine will discontinue publishing on a stand-alone basis after the January/February 2008 issue."She's Got Class!http://www.blogger.com/profile/18121276527648386213noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6268991818839546556.post-40937558207938530742007-12-03T12:40:00.000-05:002008-12-12T21:55:09.392-05:00Express Yourself!We've barely reached the first week of December, and surprisingly, I've almost completed my shopping list! Now that's a huge deal for an extreme holiday procrastinator like myself. Usually, I'm the one you'll see making 'day-of' purchases! But of course, we all have that one person in our lives (sometimes two) who we get totally stumped with. I mean really... she either has everything that you can think of, or if she's made mention that she wants it, you have only two days to buy it before she does! That sucks when Christmas is 22 days away! What to do? What to do? <br /><br />This Christmas is all about expression! Stuff her stocking with a <strong><em>Jessica Kagan Cushman</em></strong> bangle! These oh so cute and trendy bangles are the perfect gifts, and certainly say 'Holiday Holidays' with style! These fossilized woolly mammoth ivory bracelets engraved in scrimshaw with phrases from movies, literature, and even graffiti can be found online, or at specialty retailers such as <strong>Barney's</strong> and <strong>Neiman Marcus</strong>. The average price of these bangles are <em>$125</em>. <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhq7oilUUbzWnxuD9UvJ448WAjZF-fckKieTS2ruQ1lQo6AfH9hTnhv6mFIqA9AZbDohDhfJYYIsmLP1kgVKr0fnKfS2NUZKbYQj0KbanKsSiTKAKa9LQ4tPn0MIyLql72uXwRj5yYzdX4/s1600-r/jessicacushman.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNL_3rASfH9USAEkHpuCLnyTc2CgInUEI_g-833skMBN_SdBa9nMh5r5ELTNfy9OPheaoPm3pliQzdpDekS6vyxPN23qqIlb_qmg2exwLo7vKIw9IJ6z95MCxaMe55OOSxycQAt79uCOE/s400/jessicacushman.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5139824247659307058" /></a><br /><br />Wear them alone or stack 'em on! But quite honestly, I love the <em>$10 Stack 'em girl, Stack'em prices</em> that <strong><em>Laila Rowe</em></strong> offers for their equally fashionable version of the bangle! Though I'm not typically one to stand by a knock-off... I say what Laila says, "Redefine the Impossible!" ...lol!<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBxoFQskgryv51KIWJtaHeJJAab2zuxMJGfKkdoVGVhl09TNI96BMxp-GEx9mNJdAJMhbh5nae8prBLUE54sWTchQutw60t6pLTveVuozw5p64HExGdrmmxu0vD2lLl-SRYUaPd7l0QNI/s1600-r/redefinethe.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQ2Nn2MSDYEqleXt4LRFUbAhaqmA4WtkBse7IHlgiWlCfu1QNT3D_KeLj20Spu20Kgr1bRvitHwfasinIkdMD0yfns5pQ_qI3CSkC1xY8bvQwKoyw0LGx_wemtNbhf0q7oVgUZ-70kK7Y/s400/redefinethe.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5139824256249241666" /></a><br /><br />www.jessicacushman.com<br />www.lailarowe.com<br /><br />Whichever you decide...do it with STYLE, and seal it with a KISS!She's Got Class!http://www.blogger.com/profile/18121276527648386213noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6268991818839546556.post-13893218384116098262007-11-28T18:08:00.000-05:002008-12-12T21:55:09.556-05:00Bridal Sample Sale<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkXrPvLUQ2m0O8CRv5Pzz457cKSgicVgbbMzJ9aaZapA7fwTLqxuPJW64Mbxmk7xZvz8zgXtqJ1wKdt0F2ENVe0OdtHDGgliM96oMxOg7-8pKJ9SZKhR4KK_58RAsqQbjXGe0lCpLk-fE/s1600-r/bride2.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBlgopdYKA0CoFW7fmmAhKEGQ4iQR4eHF1EDIWuRhlaC2hjD-i7mMS9skahqFATONFlrcoiFzKFfXDHCmR85_yZHfhPJwsdRHTiZCzkrW0iN4YjqHb_0AZEEGj37r3ws0kilsYJDojDuU/s400/bride2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5139779159092633538" /></a><br /><br />Now through Wednesday Dec. 5th, Enjoy savings of up to <strong>70% OFF</strong> of retail prices on your favorite Designer Bridal Gowns!!!<br /><br /><strong><em>Vera Wang, Reem Acra, Monique Lhuillier, Ulla-Maija and more... </em></strong> With so many styles to choose from, you might want to make this an all day adventure! ...But do it quickly... there are only a few days left! <br /><br /><strong>Saks Fifth Avenue</strong><br />Third Floor - NY Store<br /><br />...do it with STYLE, and seal it with a KISS!!She's Got Class!http://www.blogger.com/profile/18121276527648386213noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6268991818839546556.post-86951735324980397682007-11-08T11:35:00.000-05:002008-12-12T21:55:10.203-05:00Fashion is No Compromise!'Tis the season to be jolly, while certainly staying fashionably warm!!

Thanks to the delicious, hearty, 'just like mama used to do' recipes at <strong>getemgirls.com</strong>, a good meal is oh so easy to find! <br /><br />Try this yummy <strong><em>Shrimp Scampi w/Linguine</em></strong> and add some toasted garlic bread... but be ready to get the fire burning after this one ...if you know what I mean!!<br /><br />1 (16-ounce) package linguine noodles, uncooked<br />5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling<br />5 tablespoons butter<br />2 shallots, finely diced<br />2 cloves garlic, minced<br />1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined<br />1 teaspoon kosher salt<br />1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper<br />1/4 cup dry white wine<br />1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice<br />1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped<br />Prepare pasta according to package directions for al dente. Drain and set aside.<br />Meanwhile, heat 3 tablespoons olive oil and 3 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shallots and garlic to the pan; cook and stir until the shallots are translucent, about 2 to 3 minutes.<br />Season shrimp with salt and pepper; add to the skillet. Cook until the shrimp turn pink, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the shrimp from the pan and set aside. <br />Add the wine and lemon juice to the pan and bring to a boil. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. When the butter has melted return the shrimp to the pan. Remove from heat and add the parsley and cooked pasta. Toss to coat the pasta and drizzle with a bit more olive oil. Serve immediately.<br /><br />Makes 4 servings according to the "Get 'em Girls" ...you may be able to stretch it out to 6 though! :)<br /><br />...do it with STYLE, and seal it with a KISS!She's Got Class!http://www.blogger.com/profile/18121276527648386213noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6268991818839546556.post-48564656798905627762007-10-18T10:56:00.000-04:002008-12-12T21:55:10.861-05:00FALL SPA WEEK IS HERE!!!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYYIBAb0oGoI9dLaxI1PMAyACiGiXEljfkvRqJOTiLBnWuId1LAhGZ17JtZjQ09yEiBMpJjgJa6FneTn_MnI89EPRL1B01srmfV5ISuVDHs8hEKTyaqWMU_4DJlmJU_lzWjzyOgGX5YcE/s1600-h/spaweek.gif"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYYIBAb0oGoI9dLaxI1PMAyACiGiXEljfkvRqJOTiLBnWuId1LAhGZ17JtZjQ09yEiBMpJjgJa6FneTn_MnI89EPRL1B01srmfV5ISuVDHs8hEKTyaqWMU_4DJlmJU_lzWjzyOgGX5YcE/s400/spaweek.gif" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5122695009776141938" /></a><br /><br />...and at the perfect time too!

After all, thousands of women are diagnosed yearly, and this disease is certainly not biased. I'm sure everyone knows at least one other person who has been affected personally with Breast Cancer, or indirectly through the illnes of a family member. So if for no other reason, SUPPORT THEM!! <br /><br />Since there is no known cure for the disease, most monetary donations are resereved strictly for research. So even purchasing that <strong>Pink Ribbon</strong> at the checkout of your favorite retailer will help! Also, since about 85% of women who develop the disease have been found to have no family history of it, it is extremely important for you and the women in your life (especially those over 40) to go for an annual screenings! Of course, unless you are at a higher risk due to family history or over 40, it is not necessary for you to be tested unless you discover symptoms. However, we can not forget about our moms, aunts, sisters, and grand-mothers. Encourage them to to take care of their health and get their mamograms! <br /><br />To find out more information on statistics, treatment, and screenings, etc. check out these site...<br /><br />www.nationalbreastcancer.org<br />www.breastcancer.org<br />www.nbcam.com<br /><br />To purchase <strong><em>"Save the Ta-Tas"</em></strong> T-shirts and merchandise check out <br /><br />www.savethetatas.comShe's Got Class!http://www.blogger.com/profile/18121276527648386213noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6268991818839546556.post-47845631820561874652007-10-01T13:11:00.000-04:002008-12-12T21:55:11.390-05:00She's Got Game!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxIXK0cbvycV_XcOxZUpBbF8pr5FqbVG9JMzM87F5GEukEIx4yzqX0VGJpulPXJLw7mBmPZj7hyphenhyphenEHbHahcolPt4cxjzJyfra-aHZUVIBDr5u2-urP7sqpM0HblhyphenhyphenW4Co_rfoYg8MrAyno/s1600-h/gamegetsome.gif"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxIXK0cbvycV_XcOxZUpBbF8pr5FqbVG9JMzM87F5GEukEIx4yzqX0VGJpulPXJLw7mBmPZj7hyphenhyphenEHbHahcolPt4cxjzJyfra-aHZUVIBDr5u2-urP7sqpM0HblhyphenhyphenW4Co_rfoYg8MrAyno/s400/gamegetsome.gif" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5116473375985731154" /></a><br /><br />Come out to meet actress and former Miss USA, <strong><em>Kenya Moore</em></strong>, tonight at Hue-Man Bookstore in Harlem, as she promotes her new book, <em>Game Get Some: What Women Really Want</em>!<br /><br /><em>"I’m so happy about this book. It’s my way of explaining women from A to Z for the fellas out there that want to polish their game,"</em> the beauty queen states. <br /><br />Hhmmm... Sounds interesting. Especially since all of these men out here profess to have what it takes, but when it comes down to it, they really have no clue! So while one does not need to be a relationship connoisseur to know what she wants from a man, I'm really interested in finding out what Kenya has to say on the topic. So I'll certainly check this one out! <br /><br />Tonight, Oct. 1, from 6pm - 8pm<br /> <br /><strong>Hue-Man Bookstore & Cafe</strong> <br />2319 Frederick Douglass Blvd<br />Between 124th and 125th Streets<br />New York, NY 10027<br />Tel: 212-665-7400She's Got Class!http://www.blogger.com/profile/18121276527648386213noreply@blogger.com0
