Hey Royals!
It's Me, Again!
Just dropping in to remind you to 
Take a moment 
Count your blessings!
Concentrate on that!
And let everything else fade away.
See you next time! 
Smile!

One of my favorite pass times!
Gas up the truck: we're hitting the road!
There's something so relaxing, even therapeutic about a long drive.
Depending on my mood, I could blast Beyonce or bask in silence.
This Memorial Day, I did both!
I put a couple of hours into traveling 
and made it to some family in Connecticut!
My cousins: Logan and Sydney hosted the 'Turn Up'!
Perfect weather, chatter, drinks and pizza!
The backyard is so lush and healthy, basically--
it's perfect for selfie photo shoots!
Take it all in!

Back to our Regularly Scheduled Program: 
STYLE!
These cool JustFab 'Jaslene' shoes are so cute!
Who said Nude means Plain?!
These pumps are so cute and comfy--
not to mention chic!
They feature an ankle strap with a Lock and Key!
Funny Story:
This past Sunday, My sister and I went to visit our Grandma and Aunts
She was truly enamored by our heels!
She raved about us being young girls and how do we manage these high heels!
When she looked at my shoes, she said:
"I've never seen anything like this in all my days!"
and she kept repeating, in her sweet voice and beautiful Jamaican accents:
"Lock an' Key?! Lock an' Key."
Lol

Well Hello Royals!
I always knew that people were nosey.
I just never knew that people would resort to making up stories when they don't know the truth!
If you don't know something about me: ASK
If you're too shy to ask, then it's probably none of your business.
A little mystery is healthy in a woman's life. 
And I'm all for it!

My Fellow Royalty!
Just a quick post today to share an #OOTD 
I was so eager to wear my new shoes from Lola Shoetique!
The video is on my Instagram and Facebook page!
Go check it out. 
Here are a few stills!

Have you ever had those days when your outfit is on point 
but you forget to take a full length picture?!
This was one of those days! lol
But not pictured here is my neoprene black midi skirt!
I'm sure I'll style it again soon and feature it here..

But! In the words of Lola Shoetique:
Yes, I'm a Shoe-a-holic, No I don't need help!
Keep strutting, Royals!

Let's Face it!
One of my favorite pastimes is going out to eat, 
having food delivered to my home 
and trying to cook cool recipes from my Mom and Pinterest posts!
While there are quite a few foods I do not eat, i.e.: pork and calamari... 
I still get excited about 
new restaurants, new menus 
and even those restaurants that are favorites and never let me down!
Here are a few of my faves and a little bit about each of them:

PRIME MEATS:
Steak Frites 
& the thick pasta was a gift from the chef!
I don't know what was in it, but it was delish!

MOO BURGER:
All- American Burger
with Bleu cheese
Lemonade
Fries & Onion Rings

And I love a good drink!
One of my ultimate faves
A Lychee Mojito!
This one's from my local hibachi restaurant-
FRENASIA

So my fellow Royalty: 
Let's Eat, Drink and be Merry!

When I was in high school, I took a course in Nature Photography.
Since then, I've been kinda obsessed with it.
I hope you don't mind if I share some with you!
In my travels: both in my city and abroad--
A beautiful sky, cloud formation would literally stop me in my tracks!
A sunset/sunrise excites me!
And I want to capture that moment forever.
As I drive through NYC--
between the architecture and the topiary,
There are moments of pure art!
Check these TWO pictures out!

Hey Royals!
Today, I took out my Sweater-dress.
So perfect for this weather-- it's not quite time for a mini skirt, 
because it's still quite cool.
I donned my thigh high American Apparel socks, 
and my favorite Just Fab lace up booties.
I used my ALDO statement necklace to add some 
Queenly panache to my look.
And yes!-- I love stud-type earrings!
Some of these pics were a bit grainy but the entire look came together well for me!
Enjoy! Til next time, Kings n Queens!
