Casual Style OOTD!

Hello, Dolls How is everyone? I'm well. It has been a very long week for me. All this week, I've been wearing simple, but comfortable and casual looks to work. There are several reasons why: The first is because it's hot! The temps in Maryland are in the high 90's, and the humidity makes it feel like it's 100 degrees or more! The second is because my job has started doing Curbside service this week; so, I wanted to dress as comfortable as I can being that I'm going back and forth to service customers. This outfit is one of the looks that I wore this week. The jumpsuit is a fashion oldie but a goody; I love it! It's so comfortable! I decided to add some sass to it by adding the tassel earrings; and I love a good pair of shades. I don't go anywhere without my sunglasses! Outfit deets are listed below!  What I'm Wearing: Jumpsuit: Forever21 Sandals: Boo Hoo Tassel Earrings: Boo Hoo Handbag: Shoedazzle Shades: Shopalyr

Summer Favorites in Skincare, Makeup + Accesories!

No matter what I try, I keep coming back to African Black soap. I noticed that when I use it, my breakouts are minimal. Plus, an added benefit is that it's not drying on the skin; and over time, it lightens acne scarring. I bought this liquid Black Soap from Mobile Oasis, not only am I impressed with the skin results, I'm also impressed with the formula and the generous amount in the bottle. It's $12 for a 16 oz bottle. Sephora Lip Stains Because of the pandemic, I have developed a minimalist approach to makeup.

What I've Been Up To + Quarantine Reflections!

Cherry Blossom Parade 2019...before having to wear masks + gloves outside.  Hello, Dolls How is everyone? I hope everyone is safe and doing well during this time. I know it's been months since I've posted. I've been doing well. I've been maintaining during this time.  I was off work for a while because of the pandemic, and then I resumed work with teleworking. Now, I'm back at "work work", inside the branch. I'm getting used to going out of my home every day, trying to adjust to this new normal-while still trying to enjoy life. In quarantine, I had so many high hopes for productivity. I said I was going to do this, that, and the other. That kinda happened, I got some things done! The majority of things didn't go as planned.  A lot of it had to do with my mood, my moods were  everywhere; so, I decided that I just wanted to work on my mental health (staying at home can do a job on your mind). I had a lot of reflective tim
