Tha Gabulous Lyfe

  Hi Dolls, A lot of my experiences in Croatia were planned, but there were some experiences that took us by surprise. Our hotel was conveniently located near the City Center, surrounded by a variety of attractions, restaurants, and shops. While sightseeing, we stumbled upon unexpected adventures, which, for me, is one of the best parts of travel... the thrill of discovering the new and unknown. Leave it to me to stumble upon a selfie museum in Zagreb. I hate taking face selfies, but I love a selfie museum; my Instagram feed proves it.   For just 8€ ($9), I had to go in and visit! Selfie Museum Zagreb was a fun little surprise with some cute installations. I usually plan an outfit for spots like this, but I was swollen for most of the trip, so comfort trumped style. That said, my $10 Walmart dress and Birkenstocks still understood the assignment  If you’re ever in Zagreb, definitely check it out — it’s a fun, quirky stop that’s worth the visit! I included a few pics...

  The older I get, I love a two-piece set more and more. It's a throw it on and go situation.  This two-piece set checks all of the boxes: relaxed polished chic effortless put together Lately, my life’s been nonstop, and my style has to keep up. I need to grab something and go without overthinking it- that’s what I love two-piece sets like this one. I loved it so much, I bought it in another color.  What I'm Wearing: Masterclass 2 piece pant set : Fancy Homebody Gold Heels: Shein

  Hi Dolls, World Mental Health Day   was on October 10th. I shared a post about it on Instagram that day, but since this topic is so close to my heart, I want to make sure the message reaches all of my platforms. Mental health matters — every single day. Since the pandemic, I've noticed that my mental bandwidth was beginning to become fragile. I've been working on increasing my resilience and coping skills. I've made a list of things that I like to do when when I have those moments. I've also identified my happy places that help me feel safe.   We all need a place that grounds us.  The ocean is that place for me. It's my calm and my reset.   It’s truly humbling and fills me with awe. There’s something about watching the ocean that brings my problems into perspective  If you’re like me, and you feel overwhelmed at times, please know you’re not alone. Healing takes time. Rest is essential. Talking helps.  Take time for yourself. Check in on yo...

  October is Breast Cancer Awareness month.🎀This is your gentle reminder to schedule your annual mammogram if you're in the recommended age range. Early detection makes all the difference in the outcome. I had my first mammogram recently, and while it might feel daunting, I want to share my experience: mild discomfort, but the technician's kindness made all the difference. 💕Prioritizing your health is a form of self-love. ✨Take care of yourself-your future self will appreciate it.  Did you get #theMammo?

  Hello Dolls,  I had the most incredible experience traveling abroad this past summer. For a week and a half, I visited Croatia, and it was truly unforgettable. I had been praying, preparing, sacrificing, and planning for this trip since the end of last year, so the anticipation built up over months. As always, the planning phase felt much longer than the trip itself—time always seems to fly by when you're in the midst of it. This was my first time in Europe, so it was an extra special treat. 🌍 Every time I travel, I learn something new about myself. This trip taught me to simply be and truly live in the moment. What did that look like for me? I stopped obsessing over how many days were left on my trip (which I tend to do) and put away my phone—no more constant pictures or social media posts. Instead, I focused on the experience itself. ✨ During my time there, I had the opportunity to join several tours, and I'd love to share a few highlights from my journey. I don't ...

Hello Dolls, Summer is here! It's one of my favorite times of the year, because I actually have more of a social life when the weather is warmer. I have been working non-stop and saving up for a special event, so my social activities have been limited this year. I couldn't pass up the opportunity to see Beyonce' though! So many people raved about the Renaissance tour, so I didn't want to miss out on her next tour. Thankfully, I was able to get a ticket from Seat Geek for $107 the week before the concert!  My friends that let me tag along with them, they helped me out so much that night I'm so glad that I did, because I absolutely enjoyed myself. She puts on an amazing show! Her voice sounds the same as it does on the radio. Her visuals, costumes and team of dancers were incredible. Seeing Blue Ivy doing her thing and seeing Rumi just being Rumi put the icing on the cake. I thought I was going to hear her perform songs from the Cowboy Carter album for the entire nigh...
