Post image for Fab Find – V Neck Tees

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 ...

Spring is here!  HALLELUJAH!  Look at the beautiful, blue Charlotte sky (this was taken last spring but let's pretend I just took it).  Although, it's starting to feel more like summer than spring, but I won't complain.  At the end of each season, I go through my clothes and if I didn't wear it that season (and it was season-appropriate), I pull it out and toss it into the giveaway bag.  I also play around in my closet to see what new looks I can come up with before I go spending money on clothes I don't need (I'm a pro at shopping my closet).  Here are 5 of my Spring Must-Haves: Read More ...

So, remember that show called The Game?  Yeah.  It's coming back this month.  Season 6 of The Game premieres Tuesday, March 26 on BET.  It's been a while since the last season finale so here's a little recap of where things left off: Melanie and Derwin were making their exit from the show.  Derwin was ready to follow Melanie back to the East Coast after the San Diego Sabers won the Championship. Malik seemed to be returning to his old party, playboy self. Tasha and Pookie were still together, but Rick Fox made a cameo in the finale, so he might be trying to re-enter the picture. Jason re-proposed to Read More ...

My Day At St. John

Last week I was contacted by Stylist Allie at St. John in Southpark Mall here in Charlotte.  She said that she's been a fan of my blog and would love for me to come in and check out their latest collection at St. John.  Knowing that a lot of people's perception of St. John is "grandmotherly" and "frumpy" (her words, not mine, but I agreed), she wanted to show me that in this case, perception is not reality.  So, Saturday I headed out to Southpark Mall to meet Allie and the rest of the St. John team to see if I would walk away with a new perception of St. John.  Read More ...

Charlotte Bobcats Hoops & Heels

All basketball season I've been saying that I was going to attend a Charlotte Bobcats game, because I hadn't been to one since they were in the playoffs in 2010.  Well, when I heard that the Bobcats were having a Hoops & Heels event hosted by Bobcats sideline reporter Stephanie Ready for the game against the Denver Nuggets, I texted my friends Susan and Connie to see if they wanted to attend.  Part of the event was that there would be a NBA 101 session.  While I do not follow the NBA as closely as I follow the NFL, I do know a bit about basketball, and I know that my Read More ...

Beyonce Super Bowl XLVII Halftime Performance

If you missed the Big Game, then you really missed a treat.  The Baltimore Ravens ran away with it the first half, but after a black out in the Superdome, the San Francisco 49ers came to life and made a serious run at a comeback.  The Ravens were able to hold the lead and in the end were handed the Lombardi trophy and named Super Bowl XLVII World Champions.  Not only was this a great game (in the end), but the this was by far the BEST Super Bowl halftime performance that I've ever seen.  Beyonce SHUT. IT. DOWN. And not only was the solo performance amazing, but then she Read More ...

This season, I didn't attend as many football games as I did last season, but instead, found myself enjoying games at home with friends.  One thing that became a Sunday tradition was Game Day brunch.  No, not going out to have brunch, but instead, cooking brunch and serving it up just in time for the start of the afternoon games.  I've decided that next season I really want to step up my "Homegating" by adding a few items to really make Game Day brunch Saint-sational.  New Orleans Saints 16oz Logo Latte Mug   So, I'm not exactly a latte drinker, but I LOVE hot chocolate and this mug would be the perfect addition to my Homegating Read More ...

2012 In Review

2012 has been the best blogging year so far and I hope that 2013 is just as great!  Before we ring in the New Year, I thought that I would take a look back at some of my favorite blog posts from this year.    Game Day Glam – Super Bowl Edition:  I love taking outfit photos (although I don't do it nearly enough).  This is one of my favorites, because colored jeans took over my closet in 2012 and at one point I had to say enough is enough – no more colored jeans.  I also like these photos, because it shows me how much my hair has grown Read More ...
