Casual Friday/My Life on Instagram Pt. 1
White Out Part. 2
Happy Hump Day all!
White it is a very polarizing color, either you like it or you hate it. We’ve been told that we can’t wear white because it’s unforgiving but I reject that notion. Prior to last year, I had never wore white pants. I was conditioned to believe if I wore a pair they would make me look bigger and highlight my ample thighs. When I finally decided to buy white pants I was nervous as hell. I was deathly afraid of what people would say about me. But surprisingly I got nothing but compliments on my ALL white outfit I wore last July (here). After clearing that hurdle, I embraced wearing white on my bottom and started my search for a white pencil skirt. It didn’t take me long to find this skirt from Talbots Woman. Now my next search is for the perfect white dress!
Do you dare to wear white?
Have a wonderful day!

Crop It Out
Happy Hump Day all!
Reason number 500 to love Spring: cropped pants! Their versatility is the reason why I love them so. Whether you pair them with a blazer for work or a tank top for running errands, you can’t go wrong. Cropped pants are an easy way to add print and color to your Spring/Summer wardrobe without the extra fuss. Also they can be a cooler alternative to wearing jeans in the stifling Summer heat.
Are you a fan of cropped pants?
Have a wonderful day!

5 Things I’m Loving Right Now
Happy Hump Day all!
1. Eshakti Dresses
I’m going to need a second job to afford my love for Eshakti’s fab dresses! The best thing about Eshakti is that ALL of their clothing (skirts, shirts, dresses and jackets) go up to a size 36! Plus they can customize any dress to fit your measurements. How great is that?!
2.
I didnt think any game could surpass my love for “Words With Friends” but “Ruzzle” has! My nickname is “bxphlgal” if you wanna play!
3. “Justified”:
One of the BEST dramas on television right now (next to Scandal of course!). The series is about US Deputy Marshall Raylan Givens trying to enforce the law and old demons in Kentucky. Superb acting, complex characters and explosive storylines are the highlight of this show. I highly recommend checking this gem out on Tuesday nights at 10pm on FX.
4. Museums: I love museums but I don’t get to visit them as much as Id like, so this Spring Im going to make up for lost time. I have trips planned to the Barnes Foundation (here in Philly), the Guggenheim, the Museum of Sex (yes its a real museum! lol) and the Studio Museum of Harlem.
5. Fun, flirty necklaces:
