Songz in the Key of Life

I saw these pics last night and couldn't resist posting them on my blog. The whole look of the pics remind me of the pics of my granddaddy and my granddaddy was a sharp dresser in his time. I even have pics of granddaddy in similar outfits and poses. These pics are totally artistic, vintage and I LOVE THEM! Get it Trey! I picked my favorite three
Trey channeling the days of old for a Complex Magazine photo shoot. Here's "Songz in the Key of Life":

So Vintage! pt.2

So you know I had to add a few pieces from Forever 21 that I am also interested in...
I have some like these in tortoise shell but I like these plain brown ones too...

This necklace is so cute! I love bows.

I actually have a Chanel purse like this in creme. It was my grandma's. This pink is nice.


Cute! love the bow! It comes in brown and baby blue also. Black and white is so classic though.



I love these! The only color I don't have them in is black!



I love pearls and this ring is so chic and upscale.
















So Vintage!


A few vintage pieces I'm eyeing...I'm totally into everything vintage right now! These items can be found on modcloth.com.

World's Longest Marriage...and they're BLACK!

If they can do it, you can too!

Thank you Lord for allowing this couple to be together so long and setting a positive example for others. It's truly a blessing and gives me hope for whenever I get married.


Meet Herbert and Zelmyra Fisher from New Bern, North Carolina...


They have been married 85 years! Herbert is 104 and Zelmyra is 101. They got married and 1924 and will celebrate 86 years of marriage on May 13, 2010.
Praise the Lord!

TigerText app? really? wow...

Apparently the iPhone has created an app to help people in their "cheating" on their significant others endeavors. What this app does is set a time limit on how long the message can stay in the receivers phone before it erases. This is so the "other" can't store it and use it for incriminating evidence...wow. Technology these days...

What really defines the "other"? IMO, if you have been cheated on while thinking you're in a serious relationship with a guy(I'll just use guys for my example), then you and whoever else he is with are both the "others". So all that "main chick, main squeeze, main girl, wifey" or whatever else you want to call it is irrelevant. 9 times out of ten the accused cheater is telling all parties involved the same things. Anyway, I digress...

I'm still a little speechless about this app. Yet, at the same time it doesn't surprise me. Everyday society becomes more accepting of things that were once taboo. If a person really wants to step outside their relationship they will do it with or without the TigerText app. I'm just curious to know how many people have really downloaded it and if it really works.

Always remember what's done in the dark eventually comes to light...sooner or later, no matter how you try to hide it.

I love Nia's flawless skin! It's always glowing. This outfit that she wore here is so chic and classic. Can't go wrong with black. Her makeup is never overdone and her hair is looking healthy and fierce. Go Nia!

The BEST Birthday Present Would Be...

The best birthday present for me this year would be tickets to the Essence Music Festival in New Orleans.

*sigh* SO many great artists will be there.

Great entertainment. Great food. Fun. Can't go wrong :)

Dream Destination: Aruba


My cousin and I talked about going to Aruba for her college graduation later on this year. I actually think it'd be a great family reunion cruise destination. So far we've traveled to Mexico, Alaska, Canada, Nova Scotia (Canada), Cayman Islands (Costa Maya, Belize), Puerto Rico, Bahamas, St. Martin, St. Thomas, St. John, St. Croix (the last few are apart of the U.S. Virgin Islands tour). It's about time for us to get together again since we skipped last year due to my grandma's passing. She was our travel planner and matriarch. Then a few months ago our cousin passed amongst other family drama. A trip to a place like Aruba is just what we need to destress!
Aruba looks so relaxing....
