A Look I Want to Duplicate

For those that don't know....I LOVE vintage...I have gotten some treasures on eBay. Well I've decided to more fully embrace that part of my personality this year. I was checking out Karla's Closet and fell in love with this look....

So as we speak I'm bidding on leather shorts on eBay...currently weeding through all the booty shorts (lol).

When I complete the outfit, I'll post pics...

A Trendy Socialite's Dream!

I love my heels as much as the next Socialite, but there have been a few days where I longed to pull a pair of flats out of my bag! Well my beauties, look no further...

Hollywood Fashion Tape (the creators of what I call "Dang, I wish I thought of that!") has the Hollywood Fashionista Flat. I bought a pair yesterday at a boutique. For $15 they are a great addition to my Trendy Socialite stash.

They weigh almost nothing. They come in a cute, pink bag and in a matter of seconds you can have instant comfort! They are small enough to fit in your purse, briefcase, and even some evening bags.

They come in black and silver and fit shoe sizes up to a 9.5

What other creature comforts do you keep stored in your purse??!?!

A PJ in her PJs: Review of Benefit's California Kissin'

I started a new segment on my YouTube Channel, A PJ in her PJs. This segment is devoted to reviewing products. Enjoy the first segment on Benefit's California Kissin'.



Overall, I like this product. I love the tingly feeling and the taste. Not so crazy about the price...it's a bit expensive for something I wear underneath and over my lipstick/lipgloss.

If it's the flavor you like, I'm sure there are some drugstore brands that will deliver the same results.

Let me know what you think!

Day 3 of Twist Out

I'm feeling the "chunkiness" of today's twistout...

What did I do?!?!?

I arrived home at 1 AM from Memphis (that is a long a*# drive LOL)...I had thought I would wear a puff today (quick and simple), but I really like the twist out and thought that hairstyle would better go with what I was planning to wear.

So while I was unwinding (I still couldn't go right to sleep despite being exhausted) I sat in bed and did LARGE two-strand twists. When I undid them this morning, this is what I came up with. I picked it a little to blend, sprayed with shine and I was done in 10 minutes....I sorta like that notion.

I like my hair fresh, so depending on how I feel when I get home, this may get washed and done over. But at least now I know that I can hold on to it for three days and revive it with larger twists!

My Secret to Two Strand Twists

I've fallen in love with 2 strand twists. I tried them when I first BC'd but wasn't as satisfied as I have been the last two times I've done them.

For me, the difference has been the use of Hawaiian Silky 14-1. It has made my hair soft and silky and moisturized.



Below is a video from the first time I did a two strand twist out with Hawaiian Silky:




Here is a video when I completed two strand twists that I left in for 2.5 days:

Finally...a brief tutorial on the 2 strand twists and my latest results:
