My weekend was amazing thanks to Ramzi Yamusah and Elorm Yao! The shoot went sooooo well and  it was soooooo artsy - it told a story! Anyhu, I will definitely post some of those pictures tomorrow and attach a link to his page but for now you will have to wait! :)

 I also spent some time with friends from high school and it was amazing to see them and actually talk about stuff. It was nice! I forgot how many many truly sincere and amazing people I know from back home :)

It's time to get back to work! Hope you like le outfit :)

Two out of three of my nieces!! <3

My munchkin!!:), my sister (gorgeous as always :) ) and my oldest niece 

honestly the BEST tiramisu I have had! 

How could i do dessert without chocolate cake =)

Remember Dorothy's sparkly red shoes in the Wizard of Oz? Well, my red shoes took me home - not Ghana home but Houston home - last weekend for the blessing of my sister's marriage.  My sister is wearing silver sparkly Jimmy Choo's which I plan on "borrowing" one of these days. I mean, what are sisters for? lol. I took A LOT of pictures of everyone there but me, so today I recreated my look in the semi-wonderful weather we had here in New England! As you can see in the pictures it wasn't warm enough to melt the snow :/ so you may wondering, "Was she cold? or was it kinda warm?"...OH, YESSIR! I was freezing my butt off in that dress. It took a lot to keep myself composed in those pictures and I think I deserve a slice of that absolutely delicious Tiramisu shown above =)

Today a good friend of mine arrives to spend part of Spring break with me! He's been a good friend since High School and I admire him so, so much! :) I can't wait to show him around the city and hopefully this "good" weather will hold up through the weekend *fingers crossed* But on the flip side, I have another quiz before he arrives and I am not done studying for it. Oh, what procrastination does to my life! smh

Also, as you can see from the pictures, the shoot went very well! It wasnt as warm as I anticipated but it was nice enough that I found a brick wall to take pictures of my spring looks in front of  :) :) And I chose that brick wall because it was windy (cold wind) everywhere else and I couldn't keep a composed face lol

Back to the books for me! Have an amazing day!

Yours Truly,


Marcie

My Life in Red

Those who know me well, know I LOVE Red Lipstick! I have a bunch of different shades and textures and brands. Here are my four favorite with the exception of MAC Ruby Woo, which I cannot find :( :( :( :(. When I do find I promise I will up a picture of me with it one. It is my favorite of the favorite and I cannot live without it.

I prefer the darker shades of red to the brighter one because, in my opinion, its a little more edgy/sophisticated/mysterious lol. The brighter shades (the last two) are very Spring-y/Summer-y while the darker shades are more for Fall and Winter but I wear the dark shades all-year round :)

Which one do you prefer?

By the way, its gonna snow today...:( and rain tomorrow! Did I ever mention I hate New England weather.
