Review: Forever21 Strapless Floral Skort Dress



Full disclosure: I still shop at Forever21. I'll be 30 next month, and at least twice a month I head into the retail chain and look for cheap, yet fashionable finds. Last week I snagged the cutest skort romper. Yes, you read that correctly... skort. Everything that was hot in the 90s is making a come back and skorts are no different.

I don't usually write reviews on F21's site, but after buying this romper and wearing it out for a recent date night, I absolutely HAD to share with everyone how amazing this dress/skort/romper is.

Most readers know I'm 5'2" and rather petite, but curvy. My official measurements are 34DDD-31-41.5, so it can be hard to find something that fits and is flattering. I bought a size Large and it fits perfectly!!! The added material that drapes over the romper, which makes it a skort, is lovely. The fit is comfortable, while the length is a bit short, but tasteful since this is a skort set. I truly wish they made this in other colors because I would buy one of each.

It's always difficult to find something that flatters my shape, but F21 nailed it with this. It's very cute in person. If I would've only seen it online I may have passed, but seeing it in store was great.

If you're short and busty, give this skort a try. You'll be pleased.The romper is a steal at $22.80 and can be purchased here.

Sh*t gets real when you're playing taboo...

Last night I played Taboo for the first time, and let me tell y'all... folks were not giving me ANY fucks as a newbie lol. It took me a few rounds to truly grasp the way the game should be played, but soon after I got the hang of it.

Now, I've come to realize I'm not the best "captain" of a team or description giver, but I do thrive as a guesser. Thus, if you're someone who describes words like a G pick me for your squad.

On another note, check out my neighbor (aka Fresh Prince of SEA) heckling the shit out of me with that buzzer lol...

Sew-in Weave using Zury Indian Remy 'Wet and Wavy' Jerry Curl hair (Initial Thoughts)


Hey Y'all! So in addition to getting a snazzy new blog layout (what do you think?) I also got some new hair! I took some time to decompress from the epic marley twist fail I previously blogged about, and reemerged ready to face the world with a freshly laid sew-in!

I went to Rigat at Hands of Artistry Salon in Renton, WA and y'all... her ability to lay a weave super flat is truly mind blowing! This is the first time I've used a weave net and had a weave lay down this flat. I'm in hair heaven.

Also, I was flip flopping between curly and straight hair, but knew I didn't have enough time to order high quality kinky curly hair online... so, I ventured into my local beauty supply and decided to take a leap of faith with Zury's Human Indian Remy "Wet and Wavy" Jerry Curl hair (color #2 in 14 inches).

I'll be doing separate posts on my experience at Hands of Artistry Salon, using the Zury 'Wet and Wavy' hair, and filming weekly vlogs to show how the hair is holding up. Below is a video of me showing the results and sharing my initial thoughts on the weave.

Marley Twists from Hell...

I took a few weeks to calm down and find my way out of the deep emo hole I live in so I could give an honest review of my experience with Marley Twists... or at least what the shop out here was trying to pass off as Marley Twists.  ** Super Pause **

Okay, so a few weeks back I was beyond excited to give Marley Twists a try, but after getting them installed and coming home in tears, I realized that I wasn't about that life and took them down. A quick-ish vlog sharing my experience with what I've deemed the "Marley Twists from Hell."

Island Thick Necks... the prototype

A while back I posted about no longer being moved by Thick Necks and making the transition to beard season... well, that's not entirely the case anymore.

Yes, I still go hard for beards and #BeardSeason, but I'll go ahead and blame @SexyAndTheChi for reigniting my love affair with Thick Necks - - primarily island thick necks!

My God. They make me salivate. I was listening to Drake, googling pictures, fucking LOST in my feelings. I'll venture to say island men (primarily Samoan looking dudes) are the freaking prototype for thick necks everywhere.

Of course Samoan men don't come in size small or medium... they're damn near all XL at the very least. It can, however, be rolling dice as to whether or not they'll ride the fine line between being good thick or break the scale at obese / large and in charge. Either way, I probably wouldn't kick a Samoan dream boat out of my bed. I'm keeping it 100... the bigger the better, as long as his heart isn't about to stop. I mean, let's be able to do adventurous things.

Anyways, I've been updating my Pinterest Thick Neck Board with island eye candy and wanted to share a pics of the men sending me into a tizzy!

Lesson 13: We all have "off days"

I'm an outgoing, charismatic person... full of personality and spunk! I love having a good time and radiating good vibes, but I too, am capable of having an "off day." Over the weekend I had a moment where I took every last fuck I could find and threw them all into the air. Yeah, it happens lol...
