Hi Dolls, As you may already know, I love a nice glass of wine and discovering different wines. I joined a wine club last year and it's one of the best decisions I've made. It's really helped me to expand my wine palate while enlightening me on how wines are made. Even though, I'm apart of a wine club, I still like to partake of other wines. I was happy to find out that Death Row Records Wine released another drop of their limited edition wine duo, California Sparkling and Death Row Records red wine. I'll admit that I was equally shocked and impressed that Death Row Records now has wine. I think that both wines taste good and will bring satisfaction to the most seasoned wine palate. They pair well with 90’s hip hop music,   and they’ll be a great addition to your next get together. ️Interested in purchasing? Click HERE . Remember, it's here for a good time, not a long time. I'll warn you that the red wine has sold out once before, so if you want it, get it ...

  Hi Dolls, It’s that time of the year when I schedule my annual flu shot. As part of my ongoing well-being journey, I’ve been consistently getting my flu shot annually. Here’s why: I want to stay healthy so that I don’t miss out any important events in my loved ones lives, like getting dressed up and going out to different events with my mom (pictured). The older I get, the longer it takes me to recover from being sick. My last cold lasted for  two weeks.     I don’t want to risk getting sick again this season. Getting a flu shot is the best way to protect myself and my loved ones from the flu because it can help lessen the severity of flu symptoms if I do get sick. The Facts: Did you know you can still spread the flu even if you don't have symptoms? Getting a flu shot helps protect your loved ones from getting sick, especially those most vulnerable like young kids and older ones.  If you’re considering getting a flu shot, get it as soon as you can. It takes ab...

  I'm a serious planner, and I rarely do anything last minute or unplanned. Last month, I took a last minute trip to see a friend in Illinois. Believe it or not, that trip was a milestone for me because I always plan my trips down to the last detail. I had so much anxiety about it. I kept thinking about how much money the flight was since I booked last minute, (I kept saying "I pay bill money with this") and how much I was going to have to spend there. Plus, I got sick a few days leading up to it, I just felt like all of these reasons were enough to cancel the trip. I went back and forth in my head about it, and finally, I remembered that traveling (for me) is a form of self care. I also remembered that life is really what you make it. So, I decided to be spontaneous for once and I went. I can't tell you how much I enjoyed this trip!  Everything that I was anxious about didn't happen. I truly enjoyed spending time with my friend (which I knew I would). She lives i...

  Hey Dolls! I hope the last few months of 2023 is treating you well! I've been good. I've been trying to maintain and have fun in between my work-life demands. If there's a fun event happening and my pockets can afford it, I'm going! I attended a Styles Brunch last month. I thoroughly enjoyed myself. The Styles Brunch is a luxury plus size fashion brunch. It was held in Baltimore, MD this year.   I attended to meet Atarah (the dynamite hostess), network, eat well, and celebrate style in a luxury setting. My experience exceeded all of my expectations!  From the welcome mimosa, to learning from the elite panel, I felt celebrated, empowered and inspired.  The vibe that I felt from this entire experience was "go where you are celebrated, not tolerated."  It was a joy to be surrounded by beautiful, likeminded women who came together to celebrate one another, style, confidence and positivity! I left this event with so much more than I anticipated. I...

Hi Dolls, #sponsored As you may know, I've been shopping my closet and restyling clothes I've worn before. I decided to buy a few clothing pieces for summer, particularly for my upcoming vacation. Fortunately, I was also able to get a closet update  with new dresses and accessories from Torrid. I've never shopped at Torrid before, but I always heard good things about their style of clothing and the quality. I'm very impressed with the dresses!

Hi Dolls, One of the things that I love about warmer weather is getting out more and exploring new places. I was invited to attend a media night held at Musicbox Karaoke Lounge by a friend and fellow content creator.  Watching others sing karaoke is entertaining. At times, I like to sing karaoke myself, so I knew this would be a fun event! I also got the opportunity to meet and mingle with fellow content creators in my area. It was a pleasure conversing with them, they gave me the "push" and motivation to continue creating content. Read on for the deets!  Location Details The lounge is located at 2980 Gallows Rd.
