Songs Near And Dear

My song for the day is Taylor Swifts "Teardrops on my guitar". The lyrics remind me of having a crush in high school.

Revenge Of The Skirts

I Love Maxi Dresses With all My heart but there are some days I just want to wear a t shirt. The solution to all my problems? A maxi skirt. It gives you the same vibe but with more room to style yourself how you want. An easy way to style a maxi skirt is with a v neck tee and a denim vest over. The foot wear can be anything from flip flop to some flat boots to a pair of sneakers. Whatever makes you happy...do it. I love maxi skirts in print when everything else is in plain solid colors. In that way you don't have a bunch of patterns going against each other.
 I hope you try this trend and love it as much as I do.

Songs Near And Dear

Occasionally I come across a song that fits me in every way. When I call myself a Glam Raggamuffin it really means a person who loves fashion and feels it in every Part of their soul but still loves and respects the island lifestyle and the rasta vibes. I recently came across the new band "Super Heavy". I was amazed because so many of my favorite artists were in this new group. Damian Marley, Joss Stone and even Mick Jagger. The song I listened to Was called "Miracle Worker". The song, The group and the video is the definition of a " GLAM RAGGAMUFFIN". I hope you enjoy the video and as usual the lyrics are after the jump.

Fall Trends

One Trend That I know Is going to be a big deal from fall 2011 into next year is matte nails. I've always loved the style but more people are finding out about it so its bound to be everywhere in a bit. It's a great spin on colors that we already have. A lot of brands make top coats that turn any polish matte so it won't really be a struggle to go shopping for a whole new collection ( but if you are like me you will do it any way). Embrace this trend...who knows? Maybe it'll be your "thing".

Lift You Up

"I do not feel terrible about my mistakes; though I grieve the pain they have sometimes caused others. Our lives are “experiments with truth,” and in an experiment negative results are at least as important as successes. I have no idea how I would have learned the truth about myself and my calling without the mistakes I have made."- Parker Palmer

The Best Thing I Never Had

When I hear That Beyonce Song I think about shoes. Yes I know...I'm Screwed up, But I do think about Christian Louboutin shoes. Normally I don't like things when a lot of people have them but in this case the "a lot of people" are celebrities so its not like i'll walk down the street and every  one will have my Louboutins like when I walk outside and I bump into someone in my ugg boots grrr (That's why i've started buying limited edition uggs).  Louboutins are definitely a Brand of shoes that I plan to work my ass off just to have a pair. I feel the same way about my Jimmy Choos but that's a story for a different day. I won't say i'll never have these shoes because there are many things in my life I thought I would never have, But I worked hard and got them. So I hope you work hard for what you want too. They don't have to be a pair of Louboutins but with anything you want in life, never tell yourself you can't have it. My Friend Sky bbm'ed me today and he said " My problem was that I wanted the wall right away but you have to concentrate on the individual bricks that make up that wall". So whether your wall is a Pair of Louboutins or a Louis Bag or a family or A career.....Start to work on the individual bricks that will get you there.
My Wall Lol
