Side eyes and groans

This past weekend, Beyoncè released her album Lemonade. Now, I am a fan but I am not a member of the beyhive. Reasons being I really do not like to pit artists against each other. Too many artists speak to my inner dragon self to love someone more than someone else. It seems every time…

Out of the dark. Enter the Ninja

One of the more talented individuals I have had the opportunity to meet is Jason Rodriguez. I met Jason while working for LUSH Cosmetics and honestly LUSH was just a job for him.  He was always posing and dancing and luckily for Lush, they wanted people with personalities. Jason’s love for dance always shown through…

Diamonds and Pearls 

The legend from Minneapolis has passed away. Prince was always in a class by himself. His music transcended whatever the music world deemed popular. Prince drew you into his world and most of us never wanted to leave.  How could a man the 5’2″ in stature, able to wear a size 2 in women’s ooze…

Can I get a f*&K you???

Today’s music Monday is dedicated to the one and only HOVA aka Jay Z aka Shawn Carter. Born and bred brooklynite and grown up in the Marcy Projects. His past could have dictated a completely different life for him but instead he has amassed a vast empire from music, clothing, sports and liquor. There is…

Once a Lushie , always a Lushie. 

I worked for Lush USA about 5 years ago. It was one of the most defining experiences in my retail career.  Most stores I have worked for the merchandise basically sells itself.

Clean up in shoes, women’s, kids or wherever

My background is in retail. I worked retail for most of my life whether in store or corporate. Being in the service industry is thankless. People have no manners or respect these days.  “The customer is always right” has haunted the service industry since it was uttered. These days, people assume that means that companies…

The curse of 12 year olds

Just to preface this particular blog, it is not meant for parents of pre-teens. I am not a parent nor would I even be able to offer any advice on the subject. ( back to regular programming)     So I wrote a blog in January about layaway dick( yeah I said it).  The young lady…

Pot meet kettle. “Hey nice to meet ya!!”

Once again Twitter brought to light another relationship gone awry. ( I swear people share too damn much). A young lady by the name of Kehlani was accused of cheating on her basketball player boyfriend. It seems that it caused her to almost take her life.  She posted images of herself in the hospital with…

Be Nekkid and be happy…..

So about a couple of weeks ago, Mrs. Kim Kardashian West posted a nude selfie. She received different responses but mostly imho were queries as to why she posted a nude selfie. While there were some who were saying and are probably saying that they were just jealous and Kim is celebrating her body. Mrs….

The Great Thong Cleansing of 2016

   Now I know you may be thinking “of all things to talk about” but hear me out. Every person has a wardrobe and there are plenty of articles telling you about what to do about the clothes in your closet. We do however forget sometimes the chest of drawers and the biggest : underwear. …
