Song of the Day



Kendrick Lamar featuring Drake- Poetic Justice

I haven't been this excited for an album since I heard Bey was releasing, 4, last year. I've been waiting so patiently && finally the time has come, Kendrick will drop his album tomorrow. I heard that it had leaked but I didn't rush to find a link like everyone else. However, while hanging with friends yesterday, somebody played this song and I instantly fell in love with it.

So enjoy this track. :)

It's So Important

"Dedicate yourself to the good you deserve && desire for yourself. Give yourself peace of mind. You deserve to be happy. You deserve delight." - Hannah Arendt

 The older I get the more I realize how important it is to be in touch with yourself, to take those few moments to yourself to reflect on how you feel, what's bothering you etc. I appreciate the little things so much more && I'm learning how to let things AND people go that no longer make me happy, or in other words, take away from my peace of mind.

Today I decided to go on a Twitter break. Twitter has become nothing but a bunch of bitter people crying about their failed relationships, how their life sucks, and I felt like that negativity was starting to affect me. So I deleted my Twitter app && immediately after I felt so free, like a weight had been lifted off of my shoulders.

I don't know how long I will be taking a break from Twitter but I know that I'll be dedicating that time to growing as a person, making sure I get a 4.0 this semester, working on my brand and business, and basically just being productive.


Another One

So I got another tattoo. :D

This one is on the inside of my upper right arm. It's in Arabic && it means, "All praise be to the most high."

Art

Lately I've grown a serious passion for urban art. I've always been interested in art. It inspires me, it gives me ideas for designs, styling gigs && even on the items I'll sell in my online boutique. But for some reason urban art, has had a hold on my heart lately. I've been paying special attention to graffiti && murals on freeway overpasses && anywhere else I can find them.

Art inspires me. What inspires you?

P.S. some of the pieces below are the work of Chris Brown (yes the singer) :p

Trend Watch: Glow In the Dark Nail Polish

So the nail trends just haven't stopped coming! This year we've seen crackle, magnetic, matte and now glow in the dark nail polish!

I think this is an easy trend to pull of. There's a color for everyone and to keep the look from looking cheesy or unchic, make sure you keep your nails relatively short.
