Chocolate Pearls: Writer To Reader




Dear Reader,
It has been such a busy week and at this time I am so happy to be home watching a movie. A chick flick is exactly what I needed to relax me from the week’s events.  “A Walk to Remember,” to take me to la la land, while enjoying quiet time. I have already smiled and cried at least 2 times over the movie but it felt good.  

This movie has reminded me about how important October is better yet how important it is to love because you never know what can happen. Having a clear mind today I just thought about not only all the beautiful women that have breast cancer but all of the people who are suffering from some sort of cancer. I have a couple in my family that is still marching and some we lost in the fight against all cancer.  

I was inspired to write to my readers to ask you all to stay abreast and to do your part in the fight for all people who are dealing with some sort of cancer. I know most people are thinking they have to whip out the check book (which is helpful) this is not necessarily what you have to do to support. Below are some ways that you can do to help:

  1. Live, Love, Laugh share with others
  2. Volunteer at your nearest hospital or senior center
  3.  Donate
  4. Get involved with different cancer organizations (ex: Susan G. Komen or American Cancer Society)
  5. Send care packages
  6. Wear pink (If there is another color that represents a certain type of cancer)
  7. Start a group
  8. Share facts with others
  9. Making a difference is always fashionable.

The Cherry on top!!




Looking good is key but to go along with that is the "cherry on top" is smelling great!! Some scents that we are looking into indulge in is:

  • Pulse, Beyonce
  • Chance, Chanel
  • Connected Kenneth Cole Reaction, Kenneth Cole
  • Micheal Kors Gold, Micheal Kors
  • Wild Pear, Naomi Campbell
  • Dais, Marc Jacobs

Who doesn't love all those pretty bottles as well! Just remember to make sure you love the scent and it works for your body and the season. Some scents can be overwhelming.
Key to putting on perfume is not to drown yourself in it. Just dab some on your neck, behind your ears, and on your wrist. 

What are some of your favorite perfumes or perfumes your looking forward to?

Chocolate Pearls: Pearls of Wisdom

Fur...fur...fur!!!
I am beyond excited about this trend for fall/winter! This is a trend that has been on and off glam for years. I always thought the trend was beautiful on others, but not myself. When I was younger I would not be caught dead in fur because I associated with the rich, famous and glamorous life. That type of lifestyle I did not live so I adored the the trend from afar. 

Now I am in my 20's I have grown! I have been more in tuned of who I am. Where I want to go and I have a different confidence and ere about me. I have realized I am glam just on a budget -- I don't want a real animal on my back anyways. I have come to the conclusion that I can do whatever I want, wear whatever, and do it 20 times better because I am true to me!!

This season represents my glam!!

I encourage everyone to try something new for the season and don't be discouraged! My pearl of wisdom of the month!!! 

Be on the look out of me and my fur!!!

 It's fall but that doesn't mean bold colors will be pushed back in the closet!!! Let it shine! This barbie pink blazer really really plays up the outfit!! This is my new favorite blazer for the office. The denim blue slacks really went well together. The touch of purple added zest to this outfit!!!
