  • I spend most days in my office. Yesterday was one of those days where my office was mobile - so I had to dress for the occasion. #socialjusticeslay #iknowthatscorny #butitsfunnytome

  • 44. Ever since I turned 40 I've been waiting for this 'wisdom' to kick in. I thought I would wake up one day and feel the wisdom of my ancestors coursing through my veins and then I'd start speaking with a faint accent like Mama Maya. That hasn't happened. (Surprised, right? Me too!!) Anyway, this birthday has been kinda strange. In my attempt to wrap my head around what this age *means* I keep trying to find reference points from my life. I've thought about my grandma who was turning 44 when I was born; my mom who was newly married and my aunt who was the first in my immediate family to resettle outside of NYC. I've even been thinking about friends a few years older than me and where they were a few years ago. I'm still working through it all but from what I've gathered so far it feels like this 'wisdom' I've been waiting for is not coming in the form of some magical nuggets of information that will protect me from mistakes and missteps and bad decisions. Instead, it seems to be more about the way I understand my mistakes and missteps and how rapidly I either sidestep the same ones or recognize them right away. I'm still making mistakes but now I search for the insight. I crave the vulnerability that life lessons force upon you and the strength gifted after you come through if you receive it as such. Wisdom, for me at this age, has been more about receiving than giving. It's hard fought. It's beautiful. It's messy. It's a gift. It's like me. And I'm grateful for it. #birthdaymusings #dontmindme #Iminmybag #Obamayear #droppingbombsnotdrones Dress: @ovonion 📸: @strangebirdproductions

  • I kind of stopped blogging last year around this time. I was going through a transition of sorts in my life and working a job that required me to travel a lot and do a lot of work in isolation so I stopped working out and started eating crazy - both of which meant weight gain that made me feel uncomfortable in my clothes (you know...bc they didn't fit me 😩😜). Also, I wasn't sure why I was blogging anymore. I love to dress up and get fly, I love to help other sisters feel fly, and I like taking pictures (for the first time in my life), but all of the talk about "building my brand" and whatnot made me weary - not to mention the word 'slay' was starting to drive me crazy! Well now fast forward to now. I was looking for something on an old external drive and found some unpublished pics for the blog. I have already been saying I'm coming back but now I'm sure I'm ready! I need to get back to the things that bring me joy. Plus I have my baby @strangebirdproductions for a little while so that's motivation as well! I still need a bit more time so I'm going to be posting these throwbacks...but I'm coming!!! (Oh...and look out for a NAME CHANGE!!)
