Rumor Has It: St. Ive’s Mixing Bar in New York!

July 7, 2017

Have you ever imagined walking into a store and literally having your own lotion or face scrub made to order? Rumor has it… you can! Nestled in Soho New York; St Ive’s opened its first EVER Mixing Bar! St. Ives is one of the leading known skincare brands. You probably know them for their awesome scented body lotions, scrubs, and body washes. I myself, have used St. Ives for years. There Apricot Face Scrub is amazing! Recently one of my blogger friends Audrey (Blogger Boo #1) received an invitation to visit the new St. Ives Mixing Bar in New York! I was super excited when she asked me and Brianne (Blogger Boo #2) to come along.

Blog-Gress Goals for July!

July 2, 2017

Happy July My Lovelies! Can you believe it is July already? This year seems to be going by so fast, and before you know it Fall will be knocking on our door. FINALLY, the summer is here with the warm temperatures and the sun making its endless debut each morning. Are you enjoying your summer so far? To tell you the truth, I am slowly but surely taking part in the summer festivities. I make a point just to walk 10 or 15 minutes a day (health goals) to exercise, but more importantly, enjoy the warm weather. Making plans to visit the beach, travel, meditate, enjoy the written word (books), solo brunch dates, vacation cruise and more. And, I fully intend to bring you along for the ride.

I will admit that June was an eye-opening month for me. I didn’t achieve all of my goals that I set forth, but I made progress in other ways. Every week there are about ten blogs that I read religiously. The blogs are not only about lifestyle, but about fashion, natural hair, entrepreneurship, DIY, and travel. I studied their photos, their content, their engagement, their periscope and youtube channels, their instastories and snapchats. I took copious notes and I made a few more decisions, which I will divulge at a later date. :o) In order for my blog to grow, I need to constantly educate myself, study and evolve. Today, I will be discussing my goals for this month.

This month Blog-Gress Goals are the following:

Continue with my Summer Skincare Routine.
Increase Social Media Engagement
Read two books
Workout Three Times A Week
TAKE MORE PHOTOS (Casual and Workwear Outfits, Flatlays)
Pitch 2 MORE Companies
Submit 2 guest posts

I welcome July with open arms and I am truly excited to see what it has in store. What goals do you have for this month?

My Blog-Gress Goals for May!

May 8, 2017

Hey y’all! Can you believe that it is May! We are 5 months into 2017. Time is going by so quickly. Every month I share with you my goals for the month, my Blog-Gress (get it?). I am sure you noticed that I skipped last month. I skipped the month of April because I needed to take the time to really plan out what I want to achieve for this month. In preparation, I started reading more publications, visiting other blogs and gaining ideas on how to redesign the website and make it more informative.

Blogger Brilliance: Brianne Patrice

April 30, 2017

Hey y’all! Can you believe it is now the end of April? This month has gone by so fast. Becoming a part of a blogging network has truly opened my eyes! I have met so many different bloggers and I am proud to say that this particular blogger is one of my “blogger boos”! This months Blogger Brilliance feature is Brianne Patrice!

I met Brianne Patrice at Black Bloggers United Power Hour. Brianne not only holds the title of blogger, but she is also a busy mom. I was immediately drawn to her spirit, her amazing sense of humor and her creative style of writing. Small in stature but big on personality. Her blog features fashion, style and her journey to self-love and acceptance. Some of her posts are rather intimate in nature, and I love the fact that he is not afraid to get down to the “nitty-gritty”. One of my favorite blog posts by Brianne is called The M Word No One Wants To Talk About.

I welcome July with open arms and I am truly excited to see what it has in store. What goals do you have for this month?
