Tha Gabulous Lyfe

  Hi Dolls,  I have been a Golden Girls fan since I was a kid, I watched the show with my mom when I was younger, and I will happily binge watch episodes of it on Hulu and TV Land like I haven't seen them before. I love just about anything Golden Girls related. One of my favorite Adult coloring books is my beloved Golden Girls book. 😊 I traveled to Atlanta early this month. While visiting, one of my highlights was visiting The Golden Girls Kitchen . I heard about the pop-up experience in other states, so I was happy to see it make its way to Atlanta (which is a second home for me).  It was such a cute experience.   While there, I toured the living room, kitchen, and even Blanche’s bedroom. The kitchen serves dishes inspired by the show, alongside cocktails named after the Girls. I ended the experience with a slice of cheesecake   and a stop in the gift shop. If you’re a Golden Girls fan, this is definitely a must-visit.  The Deets: 225 Rogers Str...

Rooted 💚 Even though, 2026 is well along, I've chosen rooted as my word for this year. This is the year that I'm aiming to show up consistently, gently, and honestly, without abandoning myself in the process. 💫Rooted in who I am 💫Rooted in my peace 💫Rooted in my growth 💫Rooted in my worth. Grounded. Steady. Becoming. 🤍 If you've chosen a word or phrase for 2026, please share. 

  Hi Dolls,  I took some time, found my rhythm again, and now I’m back to showing up for myself, fully, intentionally, and unapologetically. March was a vibe.  I'm still  riding the high from the good moments in March. It was full of good music, (I attended the New Edition Way concert) good energy and good vibes. March was a reminder that joy is always worth making space for. Here’s to being present, starting fresh, and enjoying every moment as it comes.  

  Hello Dolls,  It's been a while since I've introduced myself, So here goes, I’m Gab. I’m based in the DMV area. I work as a library professional. I started my Blogger journey as a beauty blogger and makeup artist over fifteen years ago. I started here, on Blogger, in 2010. I shared beauty hauls, product reviews and makeup tutorials.  In 2018, I shifted into lifestyle blogging, and that’s when my lifestyle brand, Tha Gabulous Lyfe , was born. A few things about me...  I’m passionate about self-care, style and well-being, which is why you’ll see them woven throughout my content. At heart, I’m a big kid who finds joy in the simplest things and the next adventure.  As I get older, I care less about appearances and more about authenticity. In my 40+ (humble) years, I’m more comfortable with who I am, and I’m endeavoring to appreciate life for what it is, not what I think it should be. ️ If you take away anything from my page, I hope it’s this: live life fully . You...

  Hi Dolls,  I attended my first DC Bloggers event last weekend! Even after 15 years of blogging, I still get nervous walking into creator events, (anxiety and apprehension takes over) but the energy there was everything. It was a fun, welcoming vibe, and I loved connecting with some amazing bloggers and finally meeting a few of my fave IG friends in real life. Overall, it  was such a success! 👏🏽Connecting with fellow creators, sharing insights, and discovering new retailers made it such a memorable experience.  This event reminded me why I love creating, and it reignited my commitment to stay consistent and intentional with my content for the rest of the year (and beyond). 💫 If you’re in the DMV area, make sure to check out  Tanger Outlets National Harbor , there’s truly something for everyone, from fashion to beauty and home finds.  ️A huge thank you to   DC Bloggers ,   Tanger Outlets National Harbor ,   Sephora ,   Puma ,   ...
