Concert OOTD! (Outifit of the Day)

I went to see Jill Scott & Kem in concert (along with Salt n Pepa and Doug E Fresh) last week... the performances were amazing and the concert was so much fun! I've never done an OOTD before, so; I decided to post one for you all. Since it was a concert and it was hot (90+ degrees), I wanted to dress up, show some skin and still keep it classy all at the same time. Thanks to my friend, AC, for taking this pic :-) What I'm wearing: -One sided shoulder dress: Thrifted, for under $10! -Faux croc clutch: Ebay -Brown beaded sandals: Payless -Designer drops statement necklace: Cookie Lee Jewelry -Oversized shades: Retro City Sunglasses

Nail Trends I'm Loving....

This is a great alternative for women who want a different look, but not necessarily a design...especially if you work in a conservative work environment.  Color blocking accent nail...

I did a mini review on these powders in a haul post, for my initial thoughts-click HERE . Here are my final thoughts on these powders.

CONS -Limited edition product, already sold out -Price is on the high end, of $29 THE DEETS These higlighting powders were the first of the mineralize skinfinish c
