Holiday Fun 101: St. Patricks Day event!
 |
| Left: Ashley and Right:Jeri in Savannah |

| When in Rome...Drink! |
For St. Patricks day, Ashley and I along with a group of friends attended the parade in Savannah Georgia. We bar hopped all day Saturday and it was estimated to be the biggest St. Patricks event in the entire country. We attended a few roof top bars and watched a few basketball games. I was surprised how many VCU students were there. O sorry for the loss guys! The bars were filled with Green. From green shirts, to green shoes and I saw at least 3 females with green lipstick and green hair. Hey, why not go all the way. It was a blast. Ashley and I walked up and down River St and of course stopped off at the Marc Jacobs store. We couldn't resist in making a purchase. We have so many hilarious stories like when I bet a friend to ask for change on the side walk while singing Brittany Spear, "hit me baby one more time". He did it of course. Where was my camera when i needed it. Hope everyones St. Patricks Day was spent as well as ours!!!!!!!!

Beauty Tip 101: Taking care of what you have!!!
On so many instances we feel like make up or hair extensions will masks hidden problems. Masking the issue with long locks and mac studio foundation is only a temporary fix! I am also guilty of this. I was recently told about the benifits of Biotin on the hair and nails, and immeditely my extentions stood on end. What? You mean there is a fix to in internal problem that is slowing my hair growth? Yes Loves!!!!! Biotin is... (well here is the fancy version supplied to us by our handy dandy friends at wiki) Biotin is necessary for cell growth, the production of fatty acids, and the metabolism of fats and amino acids. Biotin not only assists in various metabolic reactions but also helps to transfer carbon dioxide. Biotin may also be helpful in maintaining a steady blood sugar level. Biotin is often recommended for strengthening hair and nails. Now do you see?
After reading this, I basically ran (no really I did) to my local grocery store. Guess what? I was able to get this gold in a jar for buy one get one free at Kroger and....Also was able to locate a $2 off coupon. I know you are as excited as I am! I snatched it up in the 7500mg with 50 tablets. Altough, through speaking to a friend (Hey Shadai) the 5000mg also works amazingly too!!! Go get your Biotin ladies and gents! Let me know how it works for you!!!!!

Handbag Picks for Spring!
Classic Tote aka the “Go To” bag: Totes are so convenient. They are big enough to throw everything you will need for the day inside and chic enough to add to your outfit. Plus, they are sturdy and no one will ever know how much stuff an average female keep in her bag. Tory Burch Tote!
Shoulder/Satchel Bag.
Whoever thought of a shoulder/satchel bag was genius. You don’t have to carry around a
bag on you arm all day. Throw it across your shoulder and move on to the rest
of your day. They come in so many different styles i.e. Vintage and they can
tackle through the day of a fashionista. Kate Spade!

Treats for the Night 101: Valentines Day Fun!
Valentines Day is tomorrow so I have decided to create an
intimate night at home. I hate going to restaurants on Valentines Day because
there is always a wait whether for seating or food. So I’d rather spend that
time in the comfort of my own home where I can set the scene and the mood. My
idea was for my significant other and I to make dinner at home where we can eat as
long as we like, not have people around us that we don’t know and most important
getting extra personal time. I split the meal into 3 courses:
Appetizer
Grilled Chicken Kabobs over a spinach salad
with: green/red/yellow peppers & Onions
 |
| Beef Ribs! |
First Course:
Marinated Beef Ribs
Garlic baked potato casserole
Vegetable Melody
 |
| A girls favorite! |
Main Course: Yes, I said main course also known as Valentines
Day dessert:
Chocolate covered fruit
Red velvet Cake
Caramel
Whipped Cream
So here are a few things I will be making for my Valentines
Day dinner, but there are so many more ideas. A man will never run away from a
nice juicy steak or some well seasoned and/or marinated chicken. Just do what
you feel. Valentines Day is a female day, but another day to show your significant other, friends and love ones how much you love and care about them!

Game Day Looks 101: 4 ways to look chic on Super Bowl Sunday
1. Sport your hair nice: You don’t want to do too much with the hair, face it, it’s a football game. But, you still want to look chic. A nice wavy curl hairstyle, either all to one side or a little bit of curl on both is another way to go. Another option is a nice chic side braid with a bang or a lot of people like to pull the hair back into a slick pony pail- Whatever works best for you. Me personally, I enjoy a head full of curls with lots of body.
2. Sport your fan gear: Some of us like to wear their favorite team jerseys. Get a team jersey with a fitted jacket. You are wearing your “fan gear” while still looking super cute. But for the rest of us, you can still wear team colors. Color blocking is a major trend so why not take that idea with sports. For example, I am rooting for the New England Patriots, so there team colors are blue, silver, red and white. A pair of red jeans with a blue and/or white top or a nice pare of blue jeans with a red top or red shoes.-Team spirit gone chic.
3.Sport a bold mouth: Bold color lips are a favorite of mine and playing around with makeup can definitely get you into the game. A bold red lipstick with your outfit will make you stand out. For those who aren’t into the jersey look, try a blue or white shirt with red lipstick. Blue jeans, a white shirt or button up with red lipstick would be give fans a run for their money
4. Get rowdy: Lastly, get violent during the game; well not literally we don’t want a situation. But, don’t be afraid to scream when your team scores or take a shot when your team kicks a field goal. The Super Bowl is a major event, so make sure your outfit screams as loud as you do!!!!!!
