SUNDAY FUNDAY | Beauty & Bellinis Event


So, a Sunday was well spent this past weekend at the beauty brand, Tokio Lashes' one year anniversary event. It included a make-up lesson, open bar, amazing food and more! I was so fulfilled being surrounded by likeminded women in the room. I decided to go dressy-casual to this event and received so many compliments on my top! I purchased it from my former PR client, H.Lerent clothing boutique in Charlotte. It was such a beautiful day indeed. See below for more outfit deets:

Monochromatic Ft. FENTY X PUMA





American Apparel Jumpsuit | Forever 21 Trench Jacket | FENTY pumas

So once the Fenty pumas released I knew I HAD to have them. I was never really a fan of the creepers so I was very pleased with the design of these! I decided to wear them for the first time with a casual outfit for this sunny day. Oh and besides the cute design, these are sooo comfy. Love love love. Thank you for reading! As always, xoxo TashjMackk

The Wrap Top

Believe it or not, i've had this top for about three years now. This is one of the most versatile pieces I own in my closet due to the fact that I can dress it up or down; off the shoulder or regular. I always get so many compliments when I wear it and the quality is A1! This shirt isn't available anymore but I will link similar ones down below! Thanks for reading as always, xoxo TashjMackk

Spring Cleaning 2017

 Revamping Your Bedroom

To start your new year off with a fresh start, it can be very beneficial to redecorate your bedroom and/or common area.
Switching up your bedroom can rejuvenate your mind and clear your previous year’s thoughts so you can enter the new year into a total different perspective! Who knew home decorating could have such a huge impact?
1.    Choose a new, refreshing color
The easiest way to give your room a new look for the new year is to simply switch up the color scheme. Every color has a different psychological effect on the human brain so think of what color you want to surround yourself with into this new year. For example, warm colors such as orange and yellow are known to relax muscles and allow you to fall asleep quickly. Cool colors such as blues and greens are known to reduce blood pressure and heart rate.
2.    Add new plants/ succulents
Another way to give your room a new look and feel is to add fresh plants or switch to different ones if you already have some. According to researchers at Kansas State University, those who have rooms with fresh plants experience better health, and less stress and fatigue compared to those who don’t have plants. Some great indoor plants are Spider plants, English ivies, Boston ferns, and Peace lilies.
3.    Purchase an area rug
An area rug that covers majority of the bedroom will add a pop of color and texture to your new and improved bedroom and will totally transform the look. Whether you choose a printed rug, solid, or one with a fuzzy texture, this item will pull everything in the room together. Target, Overstock.com, Wayfair, and H&M have trendy and affordable rugs just to name a few.
4.    Buy or create new art work
Art work can be so inspiring and can add exactly what your new space may be missing. You can take this time to begin a new year hobby and paint something to go on your wall or you can always purchase it! Art work can also be a great conversation piece for when you have guests over. Check out some amazing artwork done by one of our contributors below! Sprinkle some black girl magic in your 2017 bedroom.

    
5.    Go on a candle splurge!
Now that you have your new color scheme, artwork, plants, and a rug, the final touch is to add a 2017 scent. Go on a candle spree and stock up on some new candles for the new year. Fill your room with new scents that you’ve never tried and get into those good smelling vibes! T.J. Maxx, Target, Yankee Candle, and Nordstrom have some fresh and unique scents.
After revamping your “Queendom”, you’ll be relaxed, centered, and ready to take on the new year. Go brown girl go! Remember that you’re FEARFULLY, and wonderfully made.
Love always,

TashjMackk
