    Project Partition | The Year of 30 PhotoShoot

    Hey Loves! It’s been awhile but instead of making excuses I’m going to get right to it. :)

    In January I tuned 30! I had plans leading up to my birthday cruise to lose weight and tone up for all the tanning and bathing suit wearing I would be doing. Buuuttt it didn’t work out for me very well. I moved to New Jersey and the winter put a halt to all of my plans. So now I’m trying to catch up and get back to it. I am DETERMINED to mark my 30th year with some sort of pictorial memory. I’ve actually written a little documentary style tribute to myself. Sounds conceited BUT I am a firm believer in celebrating oneself!

    Beyonce-Partition

    One of my favorite videos from Beyonce’s latest album is Partition. It’s EXPLICIT, so don’t say I didn’t warn you. :) Although I have no intention on making a video I DO think that Beyonce looks great. After seeing the vid it instantly became my new workout inspiration. She’s toned and looks to be in great shape. Recently I realized just how OUT of shape I was after running after a train I was trying to catch into NYC. I couldn’t breathe dude. LOL, it was so embarrassing. I was short of breathe for a minute (like a couple of hours) and felt like my lungs were on fire. I might need to get checked out actually, but in the meantime I will be werking it OUT. Project Partition is all about me getting toned and in better cardiovascular health. When #ProjectParitition is over I’ll be re-creating some of her looks from the video for a personal photoshoot to mark my year of 30. ;) Check out the video below for details and join me! Tag your photos with #ProjectPartition so that we can inspire each other. I’ve posted the AB and Squat Challenge that I’m going to do on IG @thekglifestyle.

    Looking forward to seeing your posts loves! :)

    Let’s get it!

    Peace & Blessings,

    ipsy Glam Bag Review | June 2014

    June’s ipsy Beauty Bag is here! We’ll it’s been here….I just haven’t posted about it. The delay is partly because I was underwhelmed by the contents. I gave this month’s bag a 1 out of 5 stars….

    ipsy Glam Bag June 2014

     I have been using one item pretty frequently. That’s the Skinn Olive & Enzyme Rich Balm Cleanser. It’s been great! The one from the bag also doubles as a makeup remover. The eyeliner, mascara and the lipgloss aren’t any different than anything I already have…and the oil is just okay. I think I’ll start carrying it around in my purse when I need some oil on my cuticles. LOL!

    LookBook: Work Outfits Ideas

    I was so excited when this video was requested! I’ve always wanted to make more Lookbooks and thought that this was a perfect opportunity to be creative. My style changes as frequently as the weather so I tried to create ideas that were wearable any day of the week. Whether it was a work outfit for presentation day or a regular ‘ol day at work, you can wear any of these outfits in an professional/business casual environment. I think a key component of wearing an outfit that makes you stand out is making sure the clothes FIT. Lots of us wear blazers that just simply don’t fit. Or pants that are too loose or too tight. I think a key in being confident everyday at work (or in life) is dressing well and being comfortable about what you’re wearing. You never know when a Director or influential person within your organization will stop by your desk in the corporate environment. I also wanted to highlight the obvious…

  • OOTD: Jet Setter

    If you’ve followed me for awhile you ALLLLLready know I love to travel! I call myself a Jet Setter:

    Jet Set:

    a.  a rich and fashionable social set the members of which travel widely for pleasure.

    So I’m for SHO not rich (I’ll accept the fashionable part) but I do make travelling a priority! Recently went to Cali, Chicago and the NY/NJ area and decided to make a video about what I like to wear when I travel. Overall my fit MUST be comfortable. I got a few pieces from  Romwe to complete this look. Check it out!

    What do you wear when travelling? Do you prefer to be cute over comfortable?

  • 2 Spring Looks with Daily Look

    2 Spring Looks with Daily Look

    I recently went to Daily Look to find out what all the fuss was about. Month after month I saw that Clothes Encounters (one of my favorite styling channels) featured the site in some of the looks that they put together. It was a super cool site and I loved the looks they put together. Check out my video of the two looks i put together! I can’t wait until it warms up so that my Spring Look Book will be revelant. It snowed yesterday and is currently storming as I pen this article. Le sigh.

    Have you ordered anything from Daily Look?
