Pretty Shoe Friday (Leopard Wedge Sneakers)

     Guess what? Today is Pretty Shoe Friday & in honor of, I'm wearing a pair of Team Shoeicide's shoes. These are my very first pair of wedge sneakers & when I laid eyes on them it was love at first sight. I've been wanting to get a pair of these shoes because they're such a hot trend right now & with leopard being my favorite print, I had to cop a pair. But I'm not the only one who thinks these wedges are a hot commodity, they got a lot of attention today & I was even stopped by two girls in the grocery store who told me they loved my shoes & wanted to know where they could get a pair.

Today I paired these bad boys with a black zip up peplum top, & cherry red jeans.

I was also rocking my fab Team Shoeicide leopard bag.

For accessories I wore stud earrings, my ballerina necklace, white Juicy Couture watch, and I added a little edge with my black spiked bracelet & my pearl bracelet.

Whoot Whoot!! It's Pretty Shoe Friday. I've been wearing heels all week! So today I decided to go for a relaxed fit. Simple yet cute. I'm wearing a black wide neck top that's decorated with falling leaves. My top is paired with a clay red fitted skinny pant and a brown Oxford for my choice of footwork. Accessories were kept simple as well with a silver/gold wrist watch and diamond studded earrings. Oxfords are classic and comfortable. They go best with a pleated, high waist, or a fitted bottom. Hats (like a fedora) also look well with the vintage shoe. Hope you guys dig my look today! Let me see your pretty shoes!! -@meangirl_ro

Miss Kendall Werks (With An E)

A few days ago my Instagram stream was flooded with redundant pictures of none other than Miss Kendall Jenner (the kardashian little sister) by her big sisters. I have to say that at first glance I was very surprised (in the best way of course). Just two seasons ago Kendall didn't take modeling as serious, she only agreed to it because everyone said she had the perfect body and a great face. My oh my how things have changed.


Only the tender age of 16 Kendall is only the third cover girl for the Miss Vogue Australia (acting as a sister mag to Vogue Australia) and she looks just as fabulous and graceful as Naomi, in my opinion. Check out a few of the pics from the shoot. Can't wait to see future projects from little Miss Jenner. It's apparent the camera loves her and she definitely WERKED it! -@Meangirl_ro

Nasty Gal.

During all these amazing sales for the Black Friday/Cyber Moday Mayhem one of the stores I found myself continuing to revisit was Nasty Gal!

This site is one of my favorite go-to sites for outfit inspirations, trend forecasting and cyber window shopping lol ! 

 Sophia Amoruso has a way of making us girls go gaga over each item she puts on her site & 9 times out of 10, I fall for it.. The Amazing 28-year-old has done a an marvelous job with creating such a strong and consistent brand. 

Modern Day Mogul

I have always had a love for the Bow Tie low-key. When I see creative minds such as Janelle monae and Monica Rose put together fresh looks topped with fun Bow Ties, I can't help but think of ways I can rock one myself! Mike Mogul, Mr. Bow Tie himself, specializes in making the fun unisex neck wear accessories  and he does it so well! Modern Day Mogul is the name of the tasteful brand. He truly caters to the unique and the fresh individuals out there, gracing them with the perfect piece to top off their ensemble. The different patterns he delivers are fun and hip. I'm sure you'll catch you savvy boss rocking one to your little brother's swaggy friend, these flashy ties are truly for everyone! Want to be apart of the trend? Purchase yours here --> [HERE].

Here are a few of my favorite picks !

oh my gosh! unwated runs in my stockings!! :/

NO WORRIES!
 Unwated runs in your stockings can easily be fixed!




*unwated stocking runs can be fixed simply by applying clear coat nail polish on to the beginning and the end of the run and let the polish dry before putting your stockings back on.



Master Nicki Says. . .

Earlier this week hip hop extraordinaire Nicki Minaj stopped at Power 105.1 to interview and chop it up with the Breakfast Club crew. Initially Nicki was there mainly to discuss her latest project out Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded. We're not sure if Nicki was having a bad morning or if she had just had enough, because mama spazzed! We get a taste of that slick mouth all throughout her music but in the flesh I can't ever recall a time where I saw Nicki in such a rare form.

Watching the Interview had me focused and all I could say was "wow!". Angela Yee (a Breakfast Club co host) mentioned Nicki's new perfume and Nicki asked if she had smelled it? Angela replied yes then Nixki asked if she brought it and Angela replied no. Nicki quickly shot back with "cuz you a hater". The radio personalities also had a number of other things they wanted to discuss like her altercation with Ms. Mariah Carey on American Idol, a well as her E! three part series. But Nicki wasn't having it. She just went in, no pause no remorse. "See that's what I don't like about y'all New York people, y'all D-Ride stuff that got a big name on it. Y'all need to start tryna break records and listen to people's music" SNAPS! And scene!


Nicki also went on to say that she was going to start holding the Breakfast Club responsible and to a higher standard and pointed out that they need to do their research and be as current as possible. Mama definitely didn't come to play. In my opinion though I don't feel like she was wrong at all because being in the business just like her job is to stay relevant, a journalist or radio personalities job is to stay current plain and simple. I bet this will teach other radio stations/ reporters/ journalist a lesson the next time they think about asking Nicki for an "interview". You can check out the segment below. -@meangirl_ro

Side bar. The album Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded The Re-Up which only consist if 8 tracks (I think I like almost every song , still listening to decide though) can be purchased on iTunes or Best Buy.

Thankful, Nonetheless

I don't ever recall a thanksgiving without my family. And I'm very family oriented so I try to be around them as much as possible. This year though, I turned 26 moved into my own place, and kinda trying to come into my own independence officially. So with that I don't get to see my family as much. This thanksgiving I'm kinda emotional (not a whole lot), it feels really different cookin everything on my own in my own space and being able to enjoy it all...ALONE. MY family decided to go up to Sarasota, Fl to spend thanksgiving with one of my favorite cousins who we don't get to see as often.

They alternate the visits every year so she comes down for Christmas. Every year I miss my mom as well and wonder what my holidays would be like had she been here. But I had to put all that aside and still keep tradition alive. So I decided to make my own turkey day dinner. My feast for one included stuffing (of course) collard greens, sliced cured ham which I glazed with some honey, two well seasoned and buttered down Cornish hens, and white rice (which I used the juice from the cornish hens instead of water to give the rice flavor). For dessert I have sweet potato pies. My family and I get together ever year as tradition to make our sweet potato pies that we all love so much! So even though I'm not able to be with them for this thanksgiving holiday, my meal will definitely make me feel like I'm right there with them, with the exception of me missing a few dishes lol! I hope u guys are having or have a wonderful turkey day dinner with the ones you love most, I sure am about to enjoy mine!


Ps the wine selections I've chosen for my meal were White Zinfandel and Reisling. They both go quite well with almost anything.

What Grinds My Gears is.....

Seeing pregnant women doing things they're not suppose suppose to be doing like smoking. Yesterday at work my supervisor was just arriving back from lunch. She surveyed the room and had this look on her face that read like she was missing or forgetting something. She said she was coming right back, and exited the room. About minutes later she returns. Being that i'm a very observant individual, I noticed she had a lighter in her hand. Her and I have a fairly exceptional relationship, she's not my friend but she does confide in me a great deal regarding her personal life. I'm an assistant so i'm the closest thing to her most of the day, almost like a shadow. I inquired about the lighter because I just had to be sure that my eyes weren't deceiving me.

I asked "why do you have lighter in your hand?" She replied simply by shaking her head with a smirk on her face.The "i'm Guilty and wrong, I know. But I don't care either" face I read all to well. Then she continues to say: " My doctor said that if I try to quit smoking "cold turkey" I can have a miscarriage". Me being skeptical and curious, I google that statement in the form of a question and lo and behold it'a a lie. well not exactly a lie but it wasn't entirely true. I have yet to experience motherhood, nor am I a medical genius. But it definitely doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that smoking isn't good for you, it's also unhealthy for a pregnancy. I just shook my head in reply.


While researching google (I google E V E R Y T H I N G), I learned that not only is quitting cold turkey safe, but its the best way to ensure a healthy pregnancy. And also lowers risk of miscarriages, pre mature births and otherpossible birth defects. Simply put I just think it's a bad idea that she's going to continue to smoke while carrying a child. It's not fair to the baby. Am I wrong? Where do u guys stand In this issue? -@meangirl_ro

My Kinda Man

My dream guy: height like Boris Kodjoe, Build like Tyson Beckford, wisdom of Denzel, a smile similar to Simon Baker, and eyes like Michael Ealy. Wishful thinking. That would be a kicker combo of a man though! When choosing a mate, significant other, better half or whatever have you, we tend to be vain and self conscious. With that being said, when being approached by a guy most of us already have made up in our minds if we're even going to interact back and give him a shot, and at this point this only based on what we see while he's approaching. If the approach is right, swagger is on full, and he's has the right finesse (not too much or too little, but just enough) then we bite the bait, and the rest is history. That's usually a typical average woman attracted to an average man scenario.

Unless of course you're attracted to the macho, aggressive type. The man that tells you all about you. The beast in him that intrudes, imposes, and assumes that he's allowed in your space. That highly confidence and arrogance that's just as over powering as his good smelling, panty dropping cologne. In this situation we become submissive prey. There is no denying, because they won't allow it. Rejection is a word, they have very little exposure to. They already have you figured out, which makes it that much easier for you to choose because we expect a man to already know what we expect. BUT (big BUT) to take on this type you have to have a certain type of wit and charm if not equal aggression about yourself to keep up. If you don't possess that "flare" then this man is definitely not for you.

                                         

 Then you have your yes man. The punk, the man with no backbone. Everything is "yes" or whatever you want it to be. He's the pushover and the one that does any and everything to keep you happy. There is no opposition, no challenge, no fight or disagreement. It's whatever you like, and whatever you say. You may as well be in a relationship alone right?! So being that this type of man is so easily controlled, there isn't much involved in keeping him to do things in your favor. The most minor stroke of an ego, smile and a wink. He won't be wrapped around your finger, but tangled. Women appreciate the convenience of this guy because she wont ever have to deal with hearing the word "NO" and she makes all the decisions for both parties. These situations could even go so far as the woman changing the man completely. Transforming and molding him into what she want's him to be. Even down to dictating the way he dresses and cuts his hair

                                             

 

Why can't we say NO to the bad boy? He's complete opposite of what we want, what we like, and what we need. He know's as well as you do that he's no good for you. He can potentially be the best worst thing that happens to you, and can ruin your life in the same token. This is the "Mr. Wrong" Ms. Mary was talking about. Mr. Wrong does everything right though. Touche` touche`. He doesn't play fair, because there are no rules and everything is ALWAYS "cool". That mysterious, adventurous, exciting, living on the edge thrill that we desperately seek out every now and again, lies within the arms of the last place we should be. In that one situation that doesn't help us at all, but it doesn't hurt us either. It actually makes us feel better than OK. This guy is a NO-NO because you have absolutely no control! You've already lost.
                                    

Last but certainly not least. We have the homie, lover, friend, most popular, well liked guy. This man knows your whole family, all your friends and fits perfectly into your space. He has everything that you're attracted to physically. People even say the two of you look good together or would make a great couple. You just can't seem to get over that friend hump. We've all had, have, or will have this situation with this guy, It's inevitable. He'll even consider crossing that friend line, and seeing where the next level takes it. But like you, he's afraid of the weirdness and complication it'll bring. Be careful with this type, feelings aren't the best way to approach the "situation". But you do want to be consistent and a safe distance between whatever it is the two of you have going on.

So many flavors....Not enough space to stomach them all tho! Don't ruin your taste buds and appetite for the main course.

Thanksgiving 2012

Happy Thanksgiving to you & yours from Team Shoeicide!

Holiday Fit

HAVE A HAPPY & HEALTHY THANKSGIVING!

by Jemes Sintel - November 20, 2012

It’s that time of year again! The temperature is getting lower, meaning the

holidays are getting closer. It gets easy to just give into temptation when

you have the aroma of turkey coming from every direction and the sight of

gooey Pecan Pie drizzled in caramel, rotating counter clockwise on a glass

plate with your name on it. Just makes you want to lose all composure!

Well, I’m here to the rescue… Again!

---

I’ve put together a list of ways you can enjoy your Thanksgiving and avoid tarnishing all the hard work you’ve put in the gym throughout the year. Ok here we go...!

WORKOUT

Yea, that’s right! Workout! Before you dive in head first onto the dinner table have a quick workout during the day. Burn off those extra calories. Exercising will help you create a caloric deficit just in case you slip and fall face first on a red velvet cake fresh out of the oven.

---

QUENCH YOUR THIRST

---

It’s recommended to drink water throughout the day to avoid overeating. A lot of times we feel hungry but in all actuality we really just need a cup of water. Also drinking a lot of water will make you feel like you’re full and will prevent you from eating too much at the dinner table.

DON’T STARVE YOURSELF

Don’t try to “save room” and not eat till dinner time, this will only lead to overeating and weight gain. Have your normal meals, breakfast and lunch so when dinner time comes around you will be less tempted to eat something you shouldn’t be eating.

---

CHOOSE WISELY

---

Don’t be in a rush and double back flip right into the unhealthy foods first, leave the best for last! Your first plate should contain a lot of greens, fruits and lean meat. For example; it should contain the healthiest choices available, such as white-meat, skinless turkey with a small amount of gravy, seasoned green beans, a scoop of whipped white or sweet potatoes and your choice of fruits. By the time the dessert comes around you will feel less hungry and tempted to have too many sweets.

BRIEF WALK

A brief 10-15 min walk is recommended after eating. Instead of going to bed or sitting on the couch right after dinner, a walk will help your metabolism get going which will help your body burn more fat and calories.

---

LET’S BE REAL

We’re human, and this day only comes around once a year. Enjoy yourself and have fun with your family. Don’t eat to lose weight on this day, instead eat to maintain what you have until the next day. So go ahead, there will be a plethora of delicious foods around you, its ok to have a piece of pie and a glass of wine. Just don’t overdo it. As long as you have your mind set on your fitness goal and are ready to hop back on the fit wagon that Friday after, you will still be on track. Have a good Thanksgiving and stay fit!

accessorizing my wrists might be my davorite part about accessorizing.

what is your favorite part about accessorizing?

Rihanna in GQ



     It may be winter, but that doesn’t keep Rihanna from peeling the layers off. She is gracing the cover of the December issue of GQ magazine sporting nothing but a leather jacket & tattoos. I know this rebel loves to live on the wild side, but I was in awe the first time I saw it. The article about her is quite boring in my opinion. They’re things we’ve already heard before, & the rest is just blah. The highlight is the simple but racy photographs of the rock star. She has very little wardrobe, & natural looking make-up, but she still looks amazing. You can’t pass this magazine in a store & not pick it up to see the rest of the pictures inside. People who have never bought GQ before will this time. Check out the rest of the photos...

NEW GOODIES!

Lip Tattoos have been added to Sanazz .

Temporary lip tattoos are by far the hottest party wear 
essentials. They are easy to apply and stay put for up to 8 
hours

DIRECTIONS

1. Cut out the tattoo of your choice and remove the 

protective clear transparent cover

2. Place the tattoo face down on to the desired applicable 

area you wish to apply the tattoo on

3. Soak a sponge with regular water and wet the surface of 

the tattoo thoroughly

4. Wait 20-30 seconds and then remove the tattoo paper. 

5. Allow the tattoo to dry before touching the tattoo or 

wearing cloths over the applied area.

TO REMOVE : USE BABY OIL OR ALCOHOL, WILL BEGIN TO COME OFF IN SECONDS!
