Getting Down 2 Motown At The Academy!

Last night I braced the cold weather and went on a mommy/ daughter date to see Motown the Musical at the Academy of Music in Philly. I love oldies music so I was excited, and it was cool to enjoy the show with my mom who grew up listening to the music! Motown the Musical told the behind the scenes story of how Motown Records all started and the journey and success of the record company, founded by Berry Gordy. It was interesting for me, as part of a younger generation, to find out the history behind the music I like to listen to!  The show featured many artists from The Supremes and Smokey Robinson to Stevie Wonder and Jackson Five! The entire cast was fantastic and the young boy, Reed Lorenzo Shannon, who played young Michael Jackson in Jackson Five was a stand-out! He was my favorite in the show, because I was amazed how he memorized all those songs and played the role of Michael with such precision! He was uber talented for such a young age. My mom and I, along with the rest of the audience had a fun time throughout the show singing and clapping along to classics such as "ABC" by the Jackson Five and "My Girl" by the Temptations. Overall it was a really fun night at the theatre gettin' down and funky with my mom at Motown the Musical!
 I've been singing "Signed, Sealed, Delivered, I'm Yours!" all day today LOL. Be sure to catch the show while it's in town, January 6-18 at the Academy of Music. Tickets are available by calling 215-731-3333or online at kimmelcenter.org/broadway 
it's worth the dough to see Mo! LOL

My May Favorites!

April showers bring May flowers...and fun new beauty products:) Here are two products I have been obsessing over lately now that Spring has arrived, and I just have to share them with you!!! Trust Fund Beauty nail polish: If you have not tried Trust Fund Beauty, I suggest you give them a try because their polishes are amazing! I don't know what is more perfect the colors or the names. Being able to tell people the shade I'm wearing is called "I Love My #Selfie"... hello, I am all about that! The names are so adorbs... some of my favorites are "Boy Tears," "Credit Card Work Out," and "Skinny Jeans." No matter what look you are going for, they have the perfect shade to compliment it from the perfect classic candy apple red to the perfect nude. Use them with the base coat and top coat polishes, and I kid you not they work! The nail polishes do not chip! The polishes are also 100% Vegan & Cruelty-free / Paraben-fr...

Top Drug Store Secrets to Glowing Skin!

Hi beauts, In cosmetics 101, it is taught that it all begins with your skin care. If you want your makeup to come out as flawless as Beyoncé, you need a clean healthy canvas to paint on. Also it is smart to be preventative with good skin scare regimes while your young, to prevent harsh aging effects on the skin!  I have been swearing by the Clinique 3 step system for a few years now. My skin is sensitive and combination, and after trying so many products, I finally found that Clinique makes my skin look best with barely any breakouts. I have expensive taste...but hey, soft skin too! Whenever I have any free time, there is a 99.9% chance I'm entrenched in different beauty and fashion websites or browsing through Pinterest. I came across various lists from big name beauty magazines for the top drug store skin care products. Since I recently ran out of my Clinique system, I figured I should give some drug store products a try just to see what the latest and greatest are. Who know...

Happy International Women's Day to all my fellow ladies!!! WE FLAWLESS! Today is so important and one of my favorite days of the year, because it is all about celebrating women and female empowerment. It is always a nice reminder for women everywhere, that we should always be helping and encouraging one another instead of tearing each other down. More young women should live out this quote, "Behind every successful woman is a tribe of other successful women who have her back." When women empower and support one another- incredible things happen! Visit the official website for IWD, to find out different ways to celebrate the social, economic, cultural and political achievement of women. This year's official theme is Pledge for Parity.   Be sure to use the official hashtag #IWD2016 if you are posting on social media today, to get it trending:) Also, be sure to go out and enjoy this beautiful day we're having with your mom, sisters, grandmas, aunts, cous...
