5 WAYS TO INSTANTLY TO EDGE UP YOUR SKIRT OUTFIT

"Slider, STYLE"

Skirts are not my favorite things to wear.To be very honest, I've always felt like skirts gave me a really not so cool plain Jane look that I like to think does not resonate with my personality. So skirts are not the items I usually reach out for when putting an outfit together. But I know we cannot totally forego skirts in our wardrobe (I mean we can but why would we want to when there's a much sexier alternative like switching up. Edge up skirt outfit) plus I know not everyone is like me, some people actually do prefer skirts or wear skirts exclusively. I find myself thinking of ways which I can edge up that basic skirt in my wardrobe that I haven't worn in ages. Below I have listed out my…

5 THINGS I LEARNED FROM BEING SINGLE THIS PAST YEAR

"RELATIONSHIPS, Slider"

Heartbroken! Heartbreaker, betrayal, fulfillment, bliss. Done it all and seen it all. I started dating at a really young age, and ever since it's just been a non stop roller coster of relationships for me. I've had my fair share of weird, amazing, cool, not so cool and downright awful relationship. The phases of my relationships included planning a life with someone, obsessing over exes, and even throwing myself into flirtationships where I became a boy-crazed mess. Eww! So at my very young age, I had already gone through so much. I've learned a lot in these process but I decided it was time to learn about myself And so after my last breakup, which ended on a pretty good ground (story for another day) I decided it was time to try this being single…

Cleanse cleanse cleanse and cleanse! With soaps, face wash, scrubs, foams and oils.. the list of cleansing agents we all have and use in our skincare regimen is endless.

And if you have and have been wondering if it's worth a try then yes, it is and I'm about to tell you why. I first heard about the cleansing balms when I was doing my research on Korean skincare last year, I saw a cleansing balm was a staple product they used a lot since most Korean skincare routine involved double cleansing. I immediately became obsessed and wanted to own one, but I never got to actually buying simply cause…

IT HAPPENED TO ME AND IT CHANGED ME

All I went through last year!

"UNCATEGORIZED"

Last year, I really learned how to cry. I cried until my throat hurt and my eyes dried out. And then I laughed. It seems everything that had never happened to me in all my years of life happened to me last year.. I lost someone very dear to me.. In my whole more than two decades of living, I had never truly lost anyone that really shook me quiet like last year. I never understood what loss meant until it felt like someone was reaching into my chest and ripping my heart apart. I got robbed at gun point.. Prior to this, the only gun I've ever seen were in movies, or the hunters gun or the most realistic where the ones soldiers held at check points. And then they came into my…
