Blast From The Past

Every now and then I get a little nostalgic when I come across something that has to do with the fashion from yester-year. I came across this while i was looking for some maxi skirts. I thought I'd share it with you. :)

I'm Blue * Insert da ba dee da ba da*

I Was Never A fan Of the color blue growing up. I don't know why. I'm an island girl so you would think that the blue would remind me of the beaches but...No. As I started to progress into my 20's I Realized That blue is a beautiful color but only if it's dark (I'm not a fan of pastels for some strange reason). So Imagine my surprise when I found 2 great blues from china glaze (Bermuda Breakaway and First Mate). These 2 colors are blues that I can actually see myself wearing and loving everyday. So Those two polishes are my picks for the day! Enjoy :)
                 Much Love Benji-Wilson!!

Lips Of A Goddess pt2

Isn't She Lovely *sings*
So...About a year ago I outgrew lip glosses. I just couldn't deal with the sticky lips all the time. My hair would get stuck on my lips, I would forget it was there and polish off a burger like nobodies business. So Imagine my shock and amazement when I found a limited edition lip gloss that was created by one of my favorite natural haired bloggers *AfroBella*. The reason I like this gloss is because 1. It's purple. 2. It's a purple that looks good on brown, yellow and chocolate girls. The first time I went to order it , the lipglass sold out ridiculously fast and I teared up thinking I would never be able to own it. But, with the grace of the lord lol M.A.C decided to re stock the blogger obsession limited edition collection and I ordered it the SAME DAY. I'm not sure if I'm a fan of lip gloss again but I am definitely won over by this one.

Nails Nails Nails

Besides my lipstick obsession, I have this obsession with nail polish. I always bought little nail polishes when i was a teen for around a dollar and my mom had no problem with that. But its when I graduated to the more expensive stuff like essie, opi and china glaze that my mom basically told me to pay my own way. Nail polish is one of those things that every color is different. there are so many different shades of a color that you can easily spiral out of control while your supposed to be picking up just 2 colors. I love nail polish for the simple fact that it's easy for me to be trendy and wild without having to put on a trendy wild outfit or go nuts with my make up. Since it's limited to my fingers  it translates well anywhere I go. So from now on I'll be posting colors that I love for certain seasons and occasions. Along with designs that stop my heart and New colors that I've Purchased. I hope My posts inspire you guys!!
Much Love,

Songs Near And Dear

I Guess I'm in An Adele mood or just a really somber mood or something but this is my second video for the day. I think 2 a day is good right? You can't express what you feel in just one.....or maybe you can but just not today. Anyway the second 1 is called love song, its a cover of the original "love song" by The Cure . Its a little more up tempo...well...to me it is anyway. I find myself singing this song at random times when i'm not even thinking. I just start to sing "No matter how long it takes....I will always love you"....so I don't know what that means lol but here it is "Love Song" By Adele ...Lyrics after The Jump



Songs Near And Dear

So The First Song I decided to pick is "someone like you" by Adele. If not just for Adeles amazing voice, this song has some serious stuff going on in the lyrics. This song is in my heart right now because I love someone who I cannot Have. But, Who I want so Bad. The worst part is when the person has already moved on and you can only be happy that they are happy, because you love them so much. Though years have passed, I feel exactly the  same way I felt the first time I fell in love With him and I still can't believe he is the only person I haven't gotten over.  I Hope You Can Love This Song Too. She explains what the song is about in the first 1:11 so if you want to just hear the song skip to 1:12  .......Lyrics after the Jump.
