Vacation 2014: New York Edition…

Heading to the airport for my trip to New York

Words can’t explain how much I was looking for to this vacation and if you read my BLOGGER meet and greet I explained why. After working for 6 straight months, a much deserved break was needed and I welcomed it with wide open arms.  I normally travel on American Airlines but after my co-workers were raving about Jet Blue service from Barbados to New York, I decided to give them a try.  I don’t see the fuss about Jet Blue except there is a TV at the back of every seat, which is convenient for watching TV to keep you occupied. Actually the particular flight I was on was newish and didn't come with that feature, but they were kind enough to offer $15.00 off my next trip. The air-hostesses weren't friendly and the flight was nothing to shout about, just another regular flight.

Wash Day: Flexi- Rods @ 8 Weeks Post…

Do you remember my dilemma from my last wash day, well, this week I was determined to make sure my hair end up in some form of curls. The easiest way to achieve this with minimal effort was flexi-rods.

OOTD: Lady in Pink…

I’m sharing with you my outfit of the day from church from last Sunday. This wasn't a planned outfit but something I threw together that seem to work and thought I’d share it with you guys.

Shirt: Sirens| Skirt: Canada | Shoes: Payless Barbados

Wash Day: Buns And More Buns…

My plan for this wash day is exactly how Kim from Fancy Flair Lady wash day went. I haven’t tried roller setting since I started my healthy hair journey and was all hyped to do one with a saran wrap, so my hair ends up straight. My weekend was free and I went into super woman mode by cleaning, washing, while doing my hair. By the time I was ready to rinse my deep conditioner out I was totally drained and ended up air drying my hair.

Vacation 2014: Blogger’s Meet & Greet…

London Blogger's meet Tomes Edition

So this happened, I got to meet some of my E-friends! Let me first say a big THANK YOU to the lovely Lesley of Fresh Lengths & Yvonne of Diary of Another Relaxed Chic for coming out and hanging with me.  The month of May was an extremely stressful month that I even lost weight. It was so noticeable that my human resource manager asked me if I lost weight because my clothes seem not to be fitting as they usually did. I couldn’t wait for May to be over and June to begin which I was hoping would bring more sunshine into my life. I was solely looking forward to some relaxation and quality time with my fiancé for this vacay.  Kevin is no stranger to this blog and he said to me one day “ Do you want to meet up with your bloggers from the UK while you’re visiting” and my eyes lit up and was like YEAH.  He’s truly a breathe of fresh air. I thought to myself which of my bloggers were in the UK that I could possibly meet up with and the two persons that I interact with on a regular basis in the blogger world is Lesley & Yvonne.

I immediate sent them an email and they agreed. Lesley schedule was alil bit hectic but we manage to still squeeze in time to meet up. Yvonne schedule was pretty flexible so it was easy to get everyone together at the same time.

OOTD: Girl Friend’s Edition…

“It’s nice to have friends that know all about you and still love you anyway”

“To have a friend and be a friend is what makes life worthwhile”

Let me first wish my good friend Charlia a Happy Birthday! This weekend activities were surrounded by celebrating another milestone. Life is too short to be anything but happy, so any opportunity that arises we make sure we make the best of it.

It’s our annual crop over season in Barbados and we decided to celebrate by attending an all inclusive breakfast party under the name "Awaken" been held by Brewster’s Road Crew, which was at the Golden Grove Estate St Philip.  It was slated for 3:00am to 10:00pm. We arrived at 5.35am and stayed till 10.30am. Take a look at what I wore and please excuse the quality of these pics:

Strong Protein Wash Day…

Let me first apologize from disappearing for so long. I was on vacation for two weeks and when I got back I got sick. You really don’t know how good you feel till you’re sick. I’m just glad to be back to 100% and I’m trying to catch up in the blogger sphere.  If you follow me on Instagram you've have seen some of what I did during my vacation. That post will go up soon.

Throughout my vacation, my shedding was just ridiculous and I knew only two things could help, either a protein treatment or to start back tea rinses. Let’s dive into today’s wash day:

My protective style was bunning for this week
