HAPPY BLOGIVERSARY!!!

Hi Lovelies,
 How are you all doing? So.... Yesterday was our 2nd blog anniversary Whoop! Whoop! I was so excited and proud. I started blogging for fun, all I wanted was to share a few fashion/styling tips and show off some of my outfits but it turned into something much bigger than I anticipated. It is much bigger than just me now. I NEVER thought I will last beyond my first year. It was too stressful to blog, be a nursing student and a part time hairstylist. I thought my grades would be worst but they actually got better. Of course I had to give up more of my sleeping hours, leisure time and Tv shows but Hey!, that's life. I wouldn't have it any other way and I couldn't have done this without you all. Thanks for reading my posts; the good, the bad and the ugly. Thanks for encouraging me when I felt like giving up. Thanks for all your sweet, lovely comments on my posts and outfits even when i know some of the sucked. lol. You guys are truly the best and without you there will be no " Muke the Blogger". I truly, sincerely, appreciate and love you all. (I will be doing a big blogiversary giveaway next week to say a proper thank you, stay tuned)

Thigh High Boots Poping

Hello lovely fashionistas,

                                I know it has been a while but I am back. Just started school this week and it has been really difficult to balance everything especially after having such a long time off school. Any way I am figuring it out and I promise to be more current. Just bare with me I beg. The post/ message of today is going to be deep, even though the title of the post doesn't reflect it. A couple of weeks ago, I went to the mall and the message of this lovely tank top cut my eye. "THEN YOU WILL KNOW THE TRUTH AND THE TRUTH WILL SET YOU FREE!!! John 8:32". This message brought flashes of so many struggles, insecurities, fights, barriers etc that I and many people I know have had to face.  Bullying!!! Bullying BULLYING is a HUGE issue in this part of the world. It is very easy for people to sit behind their computers and bully others, insulting / judging them about their looks, their size, their behavior etc etc when they themselves are worst looking. Don't get me wrong, it is okay to give constructive criticisms, as a matter of fact I loveeee constructive criticisms and that's why I LOVE my readers coz they show me nothing but love. However some people especially on other social media sites find pleasure in insulting other bloggers calling them names and insulting everything on their bodies. It is never fun to put others down in other to look good. I know many bloggers who have been bullied , insulted and cursed for there looks or for something on their body. For example my friend and fellow blogger Brenda Chuinkam, In my eyes she has the perfect shape and size any girl will want ( I envy her * hides face* lol), but I can't count the number of times she has been featured on a site and people esply girls have insulted her. if it's not her legs, it's her hips, her style etc. I love how she doesn't let it bother her one bit ( Strong Lady) but everyone is not as strong as she is an you never know what impact a couple of arrogant words can go to others especially youths. No one is perfect, everyone has something they don't like or are insecure about even YOU ( cyber bullies). Only the "TRUTH" can set you free, that's allI can really say. Any successful, hardworking, good looking and happy person wouldn't derive pleasure in putting others down. Being jealous, envious, and mean wouldn't help you.  I can't count how many teenagers and young adults loose their lives every day because of bullying. We Need to STOP BULLYING and learn to accept each other coz we are more alike than we are different. That is the TRUTH. This post is for every teenager, blogger, artist, man, woman, child who has been bullied / hated . Just know that they do not define you and what doesn't kill you makes you STRONGER!!! NO ONE is worth loosing your life for not even YOU.

Disclaimer: Just so you know this is not my personal story, I haven't been insulted on any sites or by anyone (at least not yet). It just hurts me to see others suffer / loose their lives because some other human beings think less of them. I just can't stand it.

La Vie en NOIR

"A woman never looks bad in a little black dress, they can always trust that look." Quote supplied by the fashion house

Hey everyone,
                      Happy Father's Day to all the lovely Dads.Well, I just want to start by thanking you all for the support I have been having these few days, Increased views and more comments. Means a lot and please keep the views and comments coming, sincerely, they motivate me. Today's post is a continuation of the Little Black Dress post, this is the 2nd of 3 ( Check out the first post here). As earlier said, a LBD is a definite must-have for ever fashionista but just because it's called a black dress doesn't mean it can't have a little bit of color. A black dress with the right pop of color in all the right places can  take your outfit to a whole new level. For example, If you had to attend an interview, office / board meeting or even a corporate presentation, an outfit like this can move mountains.

  Dress: BCBG , Shoes: Shoe dazzle, Accessories: Forever 21/ Gifted Bag: Trifted. Of course if you are going for an interview you might want to wear lower heels, but for a meeting, especially a corporate presentation, you just have to keep those heels on, coz you might be surprised the kind of contracts those shoes/legs can get you, lol just saying. You can always put a blazer over the outfit or add a belt, but don't forget to keep the colors to a minimum and avoid bright colors, It's a formal meeting not a girls night out. More pictures after the cut.
