Natural Hair Care

I find all the best blazers at my local thrift stores, but stores like H&M and ASOS have had pretty nice ones lately. We all laughed at that infamous picture of the Rock wearing that black turtleneck, chain and fanny pack, but look what’s trendy in fashion now? I’ve worn turtleneck clothing virtually all seasons, so don’t worry about packing it up after the cool months end. I’ve walked past loads of coats in thrift stores, but I left them behind because they weren’t me.

The Black Hair Experience”, a pop-up in Atlanta dedicated to black hair. From a “hot comb kitchen” to a wall full of “Black Hair” and “Hype Hair” magazines, these two women clearly did a lot of research for this pop-up! Other highlights of the pop-up included the magazine wall, full of covers of magazines I definitely flipped through when I was getting my hair done while I was younger, a headwrap wall and a brown background saying that “BLACK HAIR IS ART”. It’s evident from the moment you walk in that Brooks and Austin-Davis really took their time designing and hearing stories from black women to create this pop-up.

I’m sure everybody has also heard those “fashion rules” about not wearing white after labor day and not wearing double denim. A look like this could still be pulled off with dark jeans and a dark jacket, a light denim shirt and a dark denim skirt, or any other combination. The point of this step is to realize that double denim doesn’t mean a denim shirt, jeans and that’s it. The cheetah print pairs well with the white shirt I wore and also the light color of the jeans I wore.

I got the True Body Mesh Triangle Lift bra with matching hipsters in Bronzed, along with the True Body Mesh Scoop Neck Lift bra with matching hipsters in Amparo Blue! With other bras I own and even other sports bras, sometimes as the day goes on, I’m more aware of it on, but I never felt like that with this one. As far as prices go, the True Body Mesh Triangle Lift bra will set you back $64 and the True Body Mesh Scoop Neck Lift bra will cost you $64 as well. There’s plenty of styles that are around $6 and $7, which is more in my price range.

One time I took a lot of jeans to a particular Plato’s Closet location that didn’t have a lot of jeans in my size and the took them all. I’ve seen people bring in large suitcases stuffed full of clothes, boxes, etc, but I like to put everything in a retail like bag, just to make it easier for the people going through my clothes. I personally stop bringing in tank tops and warmer clothes by the end of July every year and cooler clothes by the end of February. Now, even though this is strictly for Plato’s Closet stores, I’m sure a lot of these tips can be applied for similar stores!

When used twice daily, the brand claims that your skin will look just like you’ve gotten a facial or just came from an appointment with your aesthetician. I usually use lightly scented or unscented moisturizers to avoid allergic reactions, but this moisturizer smelled like glue. While it reminded me of fond memories of naptime and recess, it’s not exactly the thing I want to smell every morning and evening while doing my skincare routine. Immediately after using as|if’s cleanser, my skin felt smoother, cleaner and best of all, not super dry like my Cetaphil can get sometimes.

I replaced my usual butter with Country Crock Plant Butter with Olive Oil and really didn’t taste that much of a difference. Another option, of course, is heading to the vegetarian/vegan/gluten-free aisles of your local grocery store, since that’s where a lot of stores tend to stick non-dairy items at. When December hit, I didn’t even reach for a lot of the things I thought I would during the month. I did make my way over to Chick-fil-A to get a chicken biscuit, but I’m still cooking with plant butter, eating non-dairy popcorn and cooking with soy milk.

This bubble tea place is located near Emory University, so I’m sure that’s why they offer coffee as well. Lots of flavors, options if you don’t want bubble tea, large size is LARGE CONS: Have to park in parking garage, confusing to find at first, dimly-lit It’s always warm every time I’ve ordered it and barely sweet, if it’s sweet at all. As a milk tea fan though, I only grab a drink here if I’m too lazy to drive another 10-20 minutes for my favorite places.

So excited to receive this complimentary @perriconemd berry lipstick. This lipstick glides like butter on my lip and has a built in SPF 15. Also helps conditions and hydrates my dry summer lips. By continuing to use this website, you agree to their use.

I was sent a Malaysian Human Hair Bob with Bangs in the color DW008. It’s a 360 Lace Frontal Wig and came in a white box with DIVASWIGS in gold on the top. I got a lot of compliments on my hair, which stayed in place the whole day and held up through a light rain shower. I loved wearing this wig and Stella and the rest of the team at DIVASWIGS were incredibly nice.
