I want to give a MAJOR shout out to my girl Eliana c/o Elly B Events who decorated & planned my Pinktastic Soiree for my birthday!!! Can I tell you guys how excited I was when I walked into Endive Catering and saw a sea of Pinkness. I smiled ear to ear because I absolutely did not know what Eliana was going to do. All I told her was that I wanted pink and a burlesque theme with lots of bling lol. I’m the type of person that let’s you be creative in your craft. I’m not a very fussy person and I love when people let their creative juices flow. Elly B events did a Pinktastic job with my birthday party and I am so glad I hired her! She loves the color pink as well, so I knew she would not let me down! Check out all the fine detail and the awesome photography by Sophia Barrett who captured every detail. These pics may just appear in a few magazines,I’m praying they do, they are that gorg! Thanks again Eliana and also Chantal her assistant! Great job you guys, I was pleased with EVERYTHING don’t you agree? xoxo

NEW Oil Free Suprême Foundation
lightweight. pore-minimizing. soft matte finish.On Counter: April 2012

Laura has developed an innovative new oil-free foundation that gives skin the ultimate coverage, comfort and wear for a flawless complexion. I tried this foundation on my face. It was a tad lighter than my skin complexion that is why you don’t see a picture of me lol. My face is oily in the middle of my forehead but dry everywhere else.I thought this oil-free foundation would be good for my t-zone area. The foundation went on very smooth and it didn’t feel sticky or oily. For some of you, maybe this particular brand will look nice on your skin tone but I will have to keep searching. It just didn’t match up with my skin tone at all. I’ve been told I’m like two or three different shades lol. I went to a Sephora store that carries Laura Mercier and they showed me a few darker foundations but they also didn’t blend well with my skin tone. I love Laura’s beauty products but the foundation just wasn’t right for me. Here is more info below.

I have been using Instagram for about a full two months now and I love it! I’m Talking With Tami on there if you would like to follow me. Yesterday I met my mentor and friend Andre at the mall. He is the reason for everything I am doing in Entertainment. He had a really popular tv show a few years back called, College Talk and I was the publicist for the talk show. The show went on to win many awards. He decided to leave the tv business and is now a science teacher in Birmingham,Alabama. He stopped by to check on me and for us to catch up. Without Andre Thomas, I don’t know what I would be doing lol. We walked around and peeked into a few stores. I stopped into one of my favorite shoe stores Bakers, and I even saw a young girl in the mall with a fake baby. She said it was VERY annoying when the baby started crying, we need more of those in the hands of girls! I also later stopped in a thrift store and found some keepers! Take a look at what I captured on my Ipad, hope you enjoy! Happy Sunday! xoxo
