The Gamble

Have you ever expected so much more from someone? Apparently more than they are willing to give you?... Okay so I'm not alone.. Sigh, that feels a lot better. I have been coming into situations where I am given my absolute all and the person on the receiving end is just taking. Now, I do have the tendency to give people and their intentions the benefit of a doubt. However I'm starting to believe i may be just a bit nivea in expecting people who you are genuine with to be genuine with you. Really who in 2013 still believe that you can get everything from putting in nothing?

Style Hit of The Week: Janelle Monae

I guess you can say this was eventually coming... Yes! I am a huge fan of Janelle but I'm also a huge fan of how she chooses to express herself. Many may say there's nothing different about how she chooses to dress due to her strict format of black and white. But that alone is dope to me and I love that she can wear the HELL out of a suit!! If the way she dresses was not enough that hair is AWESOMENESS!!! Back when I first became a fan of Janelle she was very colorful and soulful. Things since then have evolved and as we see in recent times a lot has evolved with Janelle, even her music is changing. Her style is always so crisp, clean and neat. She very charming and jazzy! Her makeup is never over done but very natural. I'll just cut to the chase, I love the simplicity of her style all around.
