I GOT FRIENDS IN DIFFERENT AREA CODES

Image
The wonderful thing about this blogosphere is the development of "cyber-friendships" with people all over the globe. Most of these people we will never get the opportunity to meet in person but this past weekend I was incredibly blessed to meet 3! While in DC visiting my sister and brand new nephew, I was able to meet up with fellow plus fashion bloggers  Vivi ,  Bibi  and  Nic ! Vivi found the perfect venue for us to have an amazing dinner and enjoy great company in each other. We laughed...and laughed...and laughed! I told my sister that when I really think about it, I have friends in so many different area codes! Going forward, I vow to try and reach out to some of them if ever I am in one of their area codes. I believe our friendships can grow and last a life time! We have a sort of blogger sorority.  Kiah, Bibi, Nic and Vivi Bibi had never tried sushi before so we eased her in with California rolls. She loved it!  Oh what to order... I wore an Asos

Brittany over at  MIDWEEK ESCAPE  sent me this sequin jacket!! It's not Christmas, my birthday or any special event, she just sent this out of pure kindness. What a gorgeous and glamorous gift!

BURR...I CAN'T "BEAR" IT

Image
Burr...it's freezing in Dallas!! Today I had to pull out the "BEAR"!  That is what I call my faux fur Asos Curve coat. lol I had to do a post to get my mind off of Whitney. I still can't believe she's gone. Whitney was one of my favorite artist of all time and I grew up listening to her. We often get dressed for church on Sunday morning listening to "The Preacher's Wife" soundtrack. My heart is very heavy and I pray for Whitney's family and especially her daughter who lost her mommy. Life is just too too short.  Here is my favorite Whitney song.... Love you Whitney. You touched my soul with your voice!!  I  pray you and Michael are together in heaven! With Love, Kiah

I GOT A MULLET!!

Image
Do you know what a mullet is? It is a haircut from the 80's that looks like this... Business (short) in the front and all party (long) in the back!! lol I found this mullet dress at Old Navy and I fell in love with it! I paired it with my Jeffrey Campbell red wedges and then for some added drama (you know I have to do it), I added my Rachel Zoe fur vest. The earrings are vintage and the necklace is from F21. Do you have any clothing that resembles the mullet or have you ever had the haircut?!! LOL  So who are you rooting for in the Super Bowl? I'm going for the GIANTS baby!!  I can't wait to see Madonna perform!! I am such an 80's girl! ;-) With Love, Kiah
