Indique Boutique Opens in Atlanta

My wavy Indique extensions have been getting so much love in the Internet streets!  Everyone has been asking and emailing me questions about my Indique hair.  All my Atlanta ladies are in luck!  Indique just opened their 10th boutique in the Virginia Highlands area in Atlanta!  Indique is the top luxury hair extension brand in the US!  Why?  Because they manufacture their own hair so they have total control of the product.

Celebrating with the Co-founder and creative director of Indique, Ericka Dotson.

I'm Here for Beyonce's New Bob

Yes Lawd!  I think my Beyonce crush meter just went up three levels!  This bob of hers gave me life!  After all the hoopla surrounding the short hair cut Beyonce instagramed a few weeks ago, she definitely took it to another level of flyness with this do last week!   

Style Me Friday: Button Down

Happy Friday!  This weeks Style Me Friday look features a button down.  I'm a huge fan of a button down (besides ironing them).  They make you look as though you attempted to get dressed.  I have been rocking them all summer.  I took a super casual approach with my look this week and included a snapback! 

Moms Trying to do it All: Tia + Tamera

Are you a mommy trying to do it all?  *Raises Hand*

The struggle is real!  After becoming a mom I didn't know how hard it would be to work full-time, take care of Peyton, Mister & my mother as well as trying to pursue my dreams.  I'm dedicated to my job. I'm blessed to have a career that I enjoy and pays the bills.  I want to spend as much time with Peyton as possible because I work all day.

But what about doing what I love?  I pay a big price to do what I love and to have this outlet.  I run on a few hours of sleep trying to blog after Peyton goes to bed.  I'm  not able to hang out with my besties as much as I would love too because I have to save the few times that I get out of the house for hosting gigs.  Between my mom going in and out of the hospital recently and just everyday life, it has been a struggle.  Sometimes I wonder when my breaking point coming.  Don't mind me if I have a nervous breakdown : ).

Twins, Tia & Tamera what to have it all!  Season three of “Tia & Tamera” follows these new moms trying to do it all.

Faves From the BET Awards Red Carpet

Did you guys watch the BET Awards last night?  I thought it was really good.  Hands down, Charlie Wilson took over the show!  I think him, Justin Timberlake, Snoop and Pharrell should do an album.  I was dancing in front of the TV like I was in the club.  Dressing for the BET Awards can be tricky.  Do you dress like the Grammys? The club? or Hip Hop?  These ladies got it right in my book.

Gabby Douglas looked stunning in this Sheri Hill lace dress!  It's tough for ladies with a body as athletic as hers to find a perfect dress.  Gabby found hers!

Breaking News! Beyonce is Pregnant Again!

My favorite mom is pregnant with baby number two!  Congrats to her!

I know a few people are a little perturb about the announcement because they have tickets to her US shows this summer!  I don't have any tix so I'm good!  With the busy year she has planned I would have thought this news would have come after the tour.  I guess we need to wait for Life is But a Dream Part II!

Congrats Bey!

We Can All Dress Like Beyonce!

It's here!  H+M has unveiled the complete collection with my girl Beyonce!  The first pictures released had me thinking I wasn't going to be able to support this collection since Bey was rocking a tiny winy bikini and booty shorts.  To my surprise, the collection has some Mama friendly pieces!   Now we all can dress like Beyonce! *does cartwheel*

Halle Berry Pregnant at 46!

The stunning 46 year old lady that is Halle Berry, is pregnant with her second child with fiance Oliver Martinez!  I didn't know she was 46!!!! WERK Halle!

Halle is three months with her second child.  Her daughter Nahla is now 5 years old and cute as ever!  Halle looks stunning but it's hard believe she is 46 and having a baby!  Doctors scare you to death about having a child after the age of 35!  The information below was shared on CNN Health:

By 40, a woman's reproductive chance is less than 5% per cycle, so a natural pregnancy is rare. And pregnant women in their 40s face increased risks for several health issues, including gestational diabetes, high blood pressure, breast cancer and miscarriages.

Big congrats to Halle!  I pray she has a healthy pregnancy.  I don't know about you but I don't think I want to be in the baby making business at 46!  My mom did have me at 40!  What do you think about having children in your mid 40's?

Kim Kardashian's "Not So" Maternity Style

Last night on Bag Ladies Radio show not only did we discuss kids style but we weighed in on Kim K's maternity fashions!  Poor girl is getting ripped apart by the media and social media.  I think everyone was excited to see what she would be wearing to cover her bump and this is what she comes up with!  I feel bad for her but have you seen what she has been wearing while rocking the bump?

Beyonce for H+M

As if I didn't have enough reasons to shop at H+M!  Beyonce is the new face for the summer campaign for H+M!

Not only is she the face, but she also had a hand in the design for the collection.  Not sure if that is a good or bad thing.  The collection is will hit stores in May!  I was a little a surprised that she partnered with H+M.  I think of her more as a Gucci or Chanel kinda lady.  But it is great that she is working with a brand that we all can obtain!  She should design a Blue Ivy collection for H&M!

What do you think of this partnership?  Will you be checking out the collection?

What I Learned From Bobbie Thomas on Bagladies Radio

Follow my blog with Bloglovin

If you didn't tune in to Bagladies Radio show last night for our Shopping Confessions chat, boy you missed out!  Not only did we all dish about our not so good shopping habits but Bobbie Thomas, style editor of the Today show joined in on the chat as well!  Maj!  Lucky for you, you can listen to the show on demand on Bagladies.com 

During the show, Bobbie shared with us how she loves retail therapy and that every lady should treat herself!  She said that therapy doesn't mean going out and splurging on expensive items.  It could be just a pair of earrings, a scarf or cruising the thrift store!  Something that makes you happy!  I like how this girl thinks!

Bobbie has a new book coming out April 23, The Power of Style!  This book is said to be more than a style guide but more of a "Life" style guide!

Beyond understanding your best colors and figure-flattering clothes, Bobbie takes a unique step back in this inspiring guide to empower you to feel stylish, smart, sexy, and satisfied—with a look that's uniquely your own…

I love Bobbie!  I can't wait to get a copy of the book!  I feel a Book Club coming on.... Who is in?  How do you do "retail" therapy?

Oscar Kids: 9 Yr Old Quvenzhane Wallis

The Oscars were a snooze fest but the highlight for me was 9 year old actress, Quvenzhane Wallis.  She is the star of a movie I have not seen, Beasts of the Southern Wild.  Not sure if it is out or just an independent film but I am on a mission to see it.  She is the youngest actress ever to be nominated for a lead role.  Go girl! 

Life is But a Dream - Beyonce!

Who watched Beyonce's documentary on HBO on Saturday?  The Oprah interview?  *Raises both hands*.  Do you know I had Mister add HBO to our package so I could watch it!  Peyton says "My Beyonce" and then asked me who Oprah was.  I had to school her real quick! LOL!  Since Beyonce has been so private I could not wait to see what she shared!  

June Ambrose Shoe Collection

We all love super celeb stylist and #RockMom June Ambrose!  I have followed her since the Bad Boy days when she did styling for P Diddy!  I am super surprised it took her so long to come out with her own line.
