Happy New Year Everyone!  I know, I know, a month too late...lol  Anyway, I hope you guys are healthy, blessed and are looking forward to the amazing things of this new year.

Okay so let's get to it.  Before this show aired, I had not really paid attention to the Kardashians.  I didn't care.  In a way, I still don't.  BUT, I really wanted to watch Kim and Kourtney Take New York, to see what makes Kim Kardashian so popular and maybe take a glimpse into her sham of a marriage to Kris Humphries.  Actually, I think the ONLY time I've discussed Kim, is when I heard that her 'marriage' was ending.  I was a bit outraged for someone who didn't care?  I think it was because she made a mockery of marriages, everywhere.  On that note, the show confirmed that Kim is a publicity whore (I know I'm late, but as I said I never paid attention).  She could have saved those tears in the last two episodes about rushing into things (yada, yada), because I wasn't buying it.  I am the first person to give someone the benefit of the doubt, but this was just too much.  Kris was/is a big goofball and obviously immature; so not ready for marriage.  Kim was just annoying and she nitpicked about everything.  She is not ready to be tied down and so not ready to have anyone else in her life right now, besides family and the media. 

Look, the real stars of this show were Scott, Kourtney (the prettier and BEST dressed of the three sisters in my opinion) and little Mason.  I love their relationship! It seemed the most real.  Even if not, they had me cracking up everytime they were on screen.  Can they get their own show, please?

Well, that's it for me folks on this subject.  Will I watch this show again?  Not sure.  More Kourtney, less Kim, then hell to the yeah.

Stay FAB FREAKING FIERCE! 

OMG, I have been gone for a little bit and was planning to stay away until after the holidays until I saw this video.  Sug betta preach!  I saw a poster on Facebook that read 'Stop Trying To Fit In, When You Were Born To Stand Out'!  I printed it out and posted it in my cube.  It's my life's motto.  Anyway, if I don't get back on here before the year is out, HAPPY HOLIDAYS to all of you.  And a special shout out to my King, who turns 39 on New Year's Eve.  Enjoy the vid!

A couple of weeks ago, whilst hubby was out, I decided to walk down the block to this little Jewish church that has thrift items for sale.  They are always out there from 9-2, but up until recently I never went in.  I mean, a church with thrift items?? Thoughts can be deceiving. This is the second time I have come out of there with some pretty fabulous pieces and the only thing that held me back from buying more, was lack of cash. 

I LOVE color: Shirt $2

I originally picked this up in yellow, but figured I could do more with the pink: Sweater $1

C'mon you know I couldn't leave this vintage piece behind AND it had a belt?!: Vintage wool cape $8

This was my hot ticket item.  It looks even better in person.  I know a little old rich, Jewish, woman had this in her closet at one point in time, but now it's mine.  The buttons are so fab: Jacket $6

I don't think I've ever seen a 'Black' Barbie look on the Tube?  Have you?  Once I saw this, I just had to post. 

If you've been natural for awhile, you know that there are more than a few days that we fall into 'styling' ruts!  Mine usually come during the colder months when I still wanna be cute, but have to take into account protective styling (cold weather is brutal on kinkier textures like mine).  I came across this video on youtube and I think it's a MUST try and it seems pretty simple to do.  Although, I don't think my hair will french roll all that easily like hers did.  My hair is muey rebellious...lol  I'm still gonna try.  Very nice for the upcoming holidays.

BB's Review

Pro: Natural/Organic, soothing, these wipes remain moist till the very last one, priced at $5.99, can be found in local drugstores, can reapply makeup with no issues

Con: You need about two wipes to remove all your makeup

Would I buy again: HECK YEAH!  The price is amazing and y'all should know how I feel about natural and organic beauty items

Alternative: Korres also has natural wipes in their brand, but they are more expensive and dry out fairly quickly

How many stars? 4 out of 5 stars

Comments: I'm still pretty dedicated to MAC's make-up remover wipes, but from all the other brands I've tried (and there have been many), YTC comes in a close second.  Both brands will remain in rotation in my beauty bag.  Sadly, I just can't shake MAC's wipes.

P.S. I'll be doing more reviews in the future.  I've been sent many items and have been picking up things here and there.  It's about time, don't ya think?

I came across this video of Tracee Ellis Ross taking us inside the closet of her character in her new show, Reed Between the Lines.  I absolutely ADORE Tracee's style!  She is one my fashion icons, if not my favorite.

On another note, what are we thinking about the show? I've been watching it faithfully and it had me laughing in a couple episodes.  I think it needs a bit of tweaking, but I really want it to do well.
