I am so ready for Basketball Wives Season 4 to begin! I’m stock piling up on my pepsi and white cheddar popcorn as I type this! I can not believe that Evelyn and Jennifer out not buddies any more, so sad. Tami is still a hot ghetto mess as usual, Shaunie is being the peace keeper and now Royce is acting. What happened to her boo she was dating last time? The two new girls I really don’t care about but they look like they won’t be on the show too long. The caucasian girl with the lisp I can’t remember her name but she bothers me and WHY was her contract re-newed for another go round? I’m done can’t wait for all the foolery Feb.20th at 8pm on VH1.

Christian Louboutin just launched his 20th Anniversary Collection Edition that is full of red stilettos, boots,pumps and more. I’m really liking so many of them. For that special Valentine’s Day date these would be perfect to wear if your budget allows! I’m still saving my pennies but one day soon, I will be prancing around in a pair. I just want the  classic black leather pump because so many of the other styles are so trendy. See any favs you like? Happy Hump Day! xoxo

On a sunny afternoon, I went down to the America’s Mart gift show in Atlanta to check out what was new coming to market. This is a place I frequent every quarter because they have some fabulous and unique items.I’ve been going to the mart for about 6 years now. Most of the time you can meet the owners of the companies/brands or the pr reps. That is how I gained so many sponsors too because of the relationships that I have built over the years. This time around I got a chance to meet some new and exciting fun people as well. One of the products that caught my eye was called, Haul Couture. As I walked by I couldn’t help but stop and chat to owner Kim. She was too fun and chipper like muah! Her booth was absolutely gorg! She then laughingly told me she was an interior designer out of Huntsville,Alabama too…should have known, ha! We chatted about her Haul Couture bags and she explained all the purposes they have. They were so chic in style and I loved the fabric choices. She was extremely passionate about her craft!

The Haul Couture can be used for:

• Grocery Cargo
• Food Cargo
• Gift Cargo
• Mens Cargo
• Slumber Cargo
• Mommy Cargo
• Wedding Cargo

I enjoyed learning so much about her cool product and you guys have to check out all the designs and styles she has on her site! They are insulated totes bags with over eighty fabrics.What I was very intrigued to learn was that you can use these chic bags at the grocery store too! They come with stacker board systems that you can stack inside the tote and it also folds up! That sold me right there plus they are re-usable,chic looking and sturdy! When you travel, it also fits in the overhead compartment too! It is definitely more than just a bag! Gotta love women that come up with great ideas like this! Great job Kim and thanks for gifting me with mine! xoxo

I was invited out to Marlo Hampton gorg home back in December. I was excited to see her place because I knew she was going to have great home design! Sure enough as I entered the four story townhome, I was very impressed with the layout. A few years ago,I lived in a townhome too that was featured on HGTV and designed by Vern Yip but it didn’t have anything on how Michael Boyd designed Marlo’s pad! Check out these gorg pics I shot of her place.You can tell every piece, design,vase,frame was very carefully thought out. I couldn’t take any photos of her bedroom and walk in closet but trust me, it was EVERYTHING girly and sparkly…I was swooning! Enjoy! xoxo
