Lady with a Goal

I love when women know how to build their empire. Iman has Iman Cosmetics, soon she will have Iman Home. I can't wait! I too aspire to build, I am a lady with a goal to reach and as much as I can see the light, that light does not show you the ups and downs of it! Today, I am inspired by Iman, no matter how much things take a different turn, keep going and find solutions. Chin up and keep moving.

The Beauty Outlook

Me and make up are as allergic as me and watermelon (about to throw up) Yes I know what you are thinking right 'You don't like watermelon,' I'm actually allergic to alcohol and watermelon (seriously). Whilst you sip your glass of wine or whatever even a cider... me I take one sip and my body will be the colour of a tomato and by the end of the day I can't breathe and off to the hospital. Whilst you guys suck on melon with so much satisfaction, one bite and I throw up the whole day even the smell I don't do. Anyway back to make-up, I wear make up veery occasionally in fact if I must have then it has to look as natural as possible. but I loooove eyeliner, mascara and lately lipstick. Love me red lipstick and the nudes such demure a lady you become. I am still looking for the most natural powder/foundation/ bronzer whatever but to no avail. At my wedding my make up artist new me from years ago that I hate it so when she finished applying, I wiped out half of it : ) lol! The most close to natural make up i've found is by Prescriptive. Ok. now one more problem, I have very sensitive skin and I mean extra sensitive. Yes. I have used the ones written sensitive, but FAIL! After a while the make up will bring me rushes. Now, it is an advantage as my husband hates make up but heey there are times you want to look that little extra glamour. I hate make up that looks like you've applied another face on. BOOh! So if you guys have suggestions, it will be cool.

If I had to give you an example of a look I love, is this by Corin Bailey Rae

Big Beautiful hair

I love curly hair, so tried this today! Of-course it looks like a wig but I love my big curly hair so does the hubby : ) That's a bonus right there

The buzz for fashion week is all over, London Fashion Week starting even sooner. I can't wait ; ) Here is a little snippet of a couple of my fave people.

Discipline

Discipline is a word or action that many of us do not completely apply to our everyday life. I woke up today with the word discipline stuck to my head. I checked my daily checklist, what to do? Did I finish everything I wanted to do yesterday. The advantages of having your own office is that you drive yourself but then again that is also a disadvantage. I for one, wants to get to places no one has ever been in terms of success. So everyday, discipline yourself to get out of bed early, and do everything you needed to do by the end of day. I and my partner tend to love working at night but that's just over working ourselves isn't it or is it? To get to where you want, you must be disciplined and driven. I am driven, Are you? Onto style... My inspiration for today is Ms. Eva Mendez how dauntingly beautiful and demure does she represent herself. Ask yourself, how do you want to represent yourself and how do you represent yourself when you wherever you are? even at home!

Polka Dots and neatly done rough updo

Eyes and lips... dark and sexy just enough

Behind the shades

Hey Ladies, another day and working my way up my own strategies to reach my set goals. Are you one of those people who always plans and makes sure you meet goals and it bothers you to not reach them? Well I am, If my heart is set on something i'll do whatever I can to reach it, of-course along the way there will be procrastinations and a lot of fear. Sometimes fear can stop you or sometimes it can motivate you.

I have learned to make fear my driving source, it gets me to where I want to be. However, if it isn't perfect I won't let anyone see it, until it's exactly how I want it. Sometimes, this has delayed so many goals but when I launch them to the world, I thank God they are as perfect and no matter who says what, those he said she said will just pass me by. One thing that you all know is I hate being in the public eye, I love my work to speak for me. I may go to events but until I tell you, you'll never know that is me. I am an observer and I love to learn, I love fashion and love to make you sure others look good. One once called me 'the beauty that will succeed behind the shades.' : )

Good luck with whatever you are doing.
