you can't be serious....stephon marbury

so i tried very hard to stay away from this stephon marbury situation because you never really know whats going on in people's personal lives, therefore i believe you shouldn't be quick to judge, but there is a time when you have to stop feeling bad for the person and start seeking help for them. honestly at first i thought he really was going through something and needed help...but after this video i think he's bored and feeling under appreciated and this is his way to get notice. well hun if you wanted attention its attention you got.


marbury dancing to 'barbie girl'

**as a sidenoted i'd like to add that i used to love the song being played....when i was a 6 or 7 year old. the song'barbie girl' was peformed by group aqua...whatever happened to them?**

Fefe Dobson- I Want You



fefe dobson's first single off her new album "joy" is entitled "i want you". like the song all in itself but the video is even better. its basically the girl in his that pines away for the hot player type guy and he notices every girl but her. classic case of why guys are idiots.

kudos ms. dobson on the new single, i'll defiantly be adding the album to my collection...

your kid isnt cool if they dont wear Gaultier to school



so im jealous, why wasn't junior jean-paul gaultier available when i was growing up? i mean seriously he was one of the first perfumes i bought when i was about 12 or 13. i'm really a fan of his work, so his newest line is the truth too. junior jean-paul gaultier is high fashion x kindergarten. i can't wait for my god baby londyn to get a bit bigger so i can go buy her a few pieces from the collection

friends, chicagoans, suburbanites....lend me your legs!!!










i love my legs....im five foot two in flip flops but more than 60% of me is my long curvy legs. i use any excuse to take them out and flaunt them...shorts..dresses...skirts...boxers...leggings. matters not how i'm showcasing them as long as they are seen...the wonderful Jessie Faire has come to my rescue with a crazy line up of leggings.

each pair of Faire's leggings are hand-dyed using a Japanese resist technique, since they are carefully dyed no two pair are alike..these arent like your run of the mill wet seal leggings either. the website ShiboriLove.com helps you find your correct size and they even come with control top(thanks geebus) and its all for a cool 32 bones....now dont be cheap and say...i can go to urban or forever...if you go there for leggings in time they will run and you will be angry.

so thanks to Jessie Faire..you defiantly had girls like me on your mind when you went to work. and i can even buy my god baby some...

Chris Rock "Good Hair"



being a young black woman my hair is my shining glory. i have had perms, pressings, braids, weaves, naturals. with all the different styles, i never considered myself having 'good hair'. many black women have tortured themselves in the pursuit of good hair.


my hair braided....

comic chris rock wenton a crusuade to find the truth about 'good hair' after his daughter lola came home from school crying over her hair. the topic was so profound that model/talk show host tyra banks decided a show to it.

Quote of the day

"I don't mind being burdened with being glamorous and sexual. Beauty and femininity are ageless and can't be contrived, and glamour, although the manufacturers won't like this, cannot be manufactured. Not real glamour; it's based on femininity. We are all born sexual creatures, thank God, but it's a pity so many people despise and crush this natural gift. Art, real art, comes from it, everything."
— Marilyn Monroe

ladies....really...listen



many women won't agree...but she who has the gold makes the rules...independent women get their own, i understand that you cant do it alone but really you have to stand on your own two feet too. the creature(whatever you're faith system) wont leave you to struggle forever...sadly i seriously agree heavily with red and meth.
