"There are so many different lives I would love to live, the problem is, I get so wrapped up in choosing the right one, I never actually get around to living it."     KMC

Open

Why are we afraid to face the Sun? Is it a looming fear of blindness, Perhaps it is what can actually be SEEEN... If we were strong enough to confront the source, we may just be gifted with Unfiltered sight; Able to see beyond,  to FEEL truth, as we do the warmth of the rays and Bask in true understanding. Yet we are weary, cautious to submit, to anxious to let go... So I guess we will never know just where those beams may have taken us, or what our true potential could have been. We will continue to bow our heads toward darkness, and shield ourselves in dreams deferred.                                            KMC

Stealing a Little Sunshine

"Sunny Days, Everybody Loves Them..."  It's all about perspective; the perfect day can make everything in life seem better.  Take that quote for instance, it's from the New Edition Song, "Can You Stand the Rain", typically a somber introspect, however, I decided to flip it and use it to inspire some fashion gold!!                If the color yellow doesn't inspire some greatness in you, I truly believe Hades should be your new vacation destination of choice, as a matter of fact, go ahead and take up permanent residency!!  For goodness sakes, it's the color God chose to make Sunshine, the single most important element to life on this planet.  GET OVER YOURSELF QUICKLY BEFORE THE REST OF THE WORLD DOES!! Wearing just one piece of golden goodness has the potential to improve even the sallowest of moods, and immediately helping others to see you differently.  The color can be found everywhere from full on jumpsuits for brave h...

I Picked Up the Paper Today...

And was totally outdone!  There was an article talking about ethnic mutts, some foolishness about Facebook scams that probably haven't been circulating since last year, and other such nonsense that does not concern me.  I just don't get how a paper that I am suppose to identify with can be so irrelevant to me.  There was a small area of interest that discussed some current things going on in the world, but again, I am only able to recall scandal.  Local news is just as bad.  I read once on a site that offered simple ways to relieve stress, and one of the top ways listed was not to indulge in local news.  The suggestion was in no means to cut you off from what's going on, as a matter of fact, it was advised to instead get your news on the world level instead.  The reason given is because it is so emotionally charged and depressing.  There is nothing we can do, yet we burden ourselves and our minds with what we see.  I now agree.  I have p...

Appapalooza: Flipboard

All I can say about this app is that it is the be all end all for the literary inclined!  I love how it can be completely customized and only display things you find relevant, even your social media!  It's like taking all the things you love to do on your phone and having it organized in a digital magazine layout.  You can even create your own magazines!  This app makes me feel like I'm a whole lot more techno savvy than I really am.  Best part of all?!  I can make me my top story!!! Ha!!

E.L.F. and the Customer Service Experience

Soooo, because my husband adores me,  he sponsored a super-sized e.l.f. Haul to inaugurate my YouTube channel, the Queen's Spot.  For the entire month of July, I will be sharing these products with viewers over the course of 8 installments of "Confessions of a Shopaholic", which is what I will be entitling my haul series.  I have been building a massive list of products over the past several months, adding, subtracting, re-adding, and changing my mind over and over again.  I finally perfected the list and felt like it was time to make it happen.   When it came time to place my order, I was advised one of the 32 piece endless eyes limited edition pro palettes I had planned on ordering was no longer available.  So I didn't sweat it, as there was a version still available which was very similar and also my reason for not purchasing both.  When I scrolled over to add to my bag, it indicated it was out of stock.  Although disgruntled, I entered my...

What Do Your Clothes Say About You?!

When I get dressed, its with intent and purpose.  There is something I want to convey visually to all who lay eyes on me.  This should always be the point.  Whether you realize it or not, clothes DO speak.  The question is, are your clothes talking about you behind your back???!!! Inspecting clothes prior to wearing them is going to be your most important and useful tool.  Making sure there's no holes, rips, unintentional tears, or missing buttons is a quick and easy way to improve your overall appearance.  Think about the way you want to look before you decide on an outfit, focussing on where you are going and the proper attire for the venue.  As adults, I shouldn't need to tell you to neatly press each item as well, but just in case you were NEVER previously advised, IRON YOUR CLOTHES!   I want my outfit to ALWAYS convey I'm the BOSS.  I keep this in the back of my mind everytime I get dressed.  Get it in your mind what you want to say...
