Funday

by Tamara on May 20, 2013

I come across across some great quotes on Pinterest and thought that I would share one today. I will probably share more quotes when they are right on point with something going on in my life. I feel like I can't fully enjoy my Sunday evenings, because I'm already dreading going to work on Monday morning (that's another topic for another blog post). Who came up with the bright idea to work 5 days and rest 2 days (or work 7 and rest 0 as was the case for me this week. Weekend? What weekend?)? I think there's enough room to squeeze one more day between Saturday and Sunday and I think we should Read More ...

Date Night

by Tamara on May 18, 2013

There are a few things that are important on date night, two of which are what I wear and getting there on time. I don't like to keep my date waiting so I usually plan what I'm wearing ahead of time. For a nice dinner or special event, a dress is always my top choice and thanks to my new ESQ Movado ESQ ONE™ watch being on time will be a snap. Since the ESQ ONE™ watch is stylish enough to dress up or dress down, I decided to style my navy ESQ ONE™ watch with a fun and flirty red dress and navy heels. Add a red lip and I'm ready to go. The Read More ...

Navy blouse (The Limited) | Floral pants (The Limited) | Navy heels (Nine West/DSW) Navy watch (c/o ESQ Movado) | Red lipstick (Ruby Woo/MAC Cosmetics) Don't you just love the floral pants trend this season? I'm not typically a trendy person, because I never want to wear what everyone else is wearing. I mean, what's the point? When I do go trendy, I want it to be something that I can tuck away in the back of my closet and then pull back out some years from now and call it vintage. Also, I don't spend a lot on trendy items. These pants? I can't remember the exact price Read More ...

Travel Style

It seems like I'm always traveling – from Charlotte to New England, Charlotte to Alabama, or Charlotte to New Orleans. If I'm lucky, I'm able to book a direct flight, but oftentimes, I have a layover. Sometimes I have plenty of time between flights, and other times I'm running and barely make it before the door closes. I usually have my smartphone in hand to keep track of the time, but that can be cumbersome when I'm also carrying my handbag and carry-on bag. Since receiving my new ESQ Movado ESQ ONE™ watch I decided to put together a look that will make my travel a little easier. My travel style is casual Read More ...

Summer Days

2013,May 14

After a long, cold winter, I plan to spend a lot of time outside this summer having lunch with friends on restaurant patios, relaxing on the beach or by the pool with a good book, and enjoying some good food and good music at summer street festivals. I want my summer wardrobe to be cool and comfortable; fun and fashionable and I know that my new ESQ Movado ESQ ONE™ watch will be a summer staple. One summer trend that I want to incorporate with my ESQ ONE™ watch is floral pants. Floral will be everywhere this summer, so I decided to style my navy watch with off-white, green and blue floral print cropped Read More ...

What I Wore: InstaStyle Week 19

2013,May 10

The last few weeks I've been thinking about doing something different with my hair. It had gotten long and boring. This week, I knew it was time to do something. Anything. (Ok, not so much anything, but you get what I'm saying.) I thought about getting it cut into a long angled bob and I thought about layers. I knew that I wanted to keep the length, because I'm loving my long hair. The night before my hair appointment I decided on a few layers in the front. Well, ta-da! That's what I got! I got it cut Wednesday and this picture above was right afterwards. I think I look Read More ...

Here's the recap for BET's The Game Episode 608: Tasha listens to a message from Rick that he can't wait to see her at Malik's event tonight. Pookie comes in carrying his last things into Tasha's home. He says if he didn't have to unpack he would escort her to the event. Malik welcomes everyone to his event. He asks who likes breasts. He says breasts are out and asses are the new tig ol' bitties. He shows a video of him eating a cheeseburger when a woman with a big booty walks by. He asks himself why does he have to choose between his burger and the booty, when Read More ...

Fab Find – V Neck Tees

2013,May 6

A couple of weeks ago I was hunting for a new white v neck tee. As you remember, this was one thing on my 5 Spring Must-Haves list. I looked in a couple of stores, but couldn't find exactly what I wanted. I then made my weekly stop at Target to pick up a few items and decided to look for a tee there. To my pleasant surprise, I found exactly what I was looking for. If you are looking for some great tees for spring and summer, check out the Mossimo Supply Co. Juniors V Neck Tees. The fit and feel of the tee is perfect. It's not too fitted Read More ...

What I Wore: InstaStyle Week 18

2013,May 3

Oh Shift! Striped shift dress (The Limited) | Earrings (Tiffany & Co.) I am in love with stripes at the moment. And shift dresses. What you can't see in this picture is that the button at the top in the back popped off so I had to wear a black cardigan over this dress. I tried sewing it back on, but it's a funky kinda button and wasn't easy to get the needle and thread through it, so off to the cleaners this dress and button will go. Last weekend was another great weekend in Connecticut. We saw Oblivion in IMAX and can I say, the IMAX experience Read More ...
