Sally Hansen Airbrush legs

I know that sometimes I can be a little self conscious about my body and all the things that aren't perfect with it. With that being said, I have found that over the course of the years my legs haven't been as perfect as I would want them to be. So I did my research and came across the Sally Hansen's airbrush leg collection and I was very happy with the outcome. Although I can't see myself applying this product everyday I can still wear it when it matters the most. I hope you all found this helpful.

Weaves for all types of hair

We met by coincidence, and I was happy that I could help turn around a negative situation into a positive one..

Expectations in a relationship

Hey Beauties,
   
                  So I am back with another post. This one just happened to pop in my mind not to long ago and I wanted to just share it with all of you.

                             Knowing what you want and expressing it to your partner

     I know that this particular topic can also apply to other things in life but the way that I'm going to talk about it is exclusively in the form of relationships.
I truly feel that if a person is not doing or contributing to what you want or need in a relationship then you SHOULD walk away. Should being the operative word in that sentence simply because not everyone can differentiate between the whole want and need aspect of a relationship.
I was never one for following the whole honey moon faze, I feel that if you are yourself then the person has a right to decide wether or not they want to be with you. Being phony or fake doesn't allow the person trying to get to know you; see the true you! And in the end can be crucial in determining the rest of that "relationship". It should also be in that beginning faze that your wants and needs are addressed. Always remember that COMMUNICATION is the key.
 I.E: If you want flowers every week then that should be said, and If you know that you need attention then that should also be stated.
The reason behind all of this is to eliminate the amount of time being wasted. If I am getting to know someone and they lay all of their cards on the table and I genuinely feel that what their asking for is beyond what I am capable of, then I can then be honest and allow them to find someone who is both willing and able to give them exactly what their looking for.
I'm going to list some topics that come up in everyday relationships that should be both expressed and laid out on the table in order to either move forward or walk away.

NEW relationships

#1-  Whether or not you are already involved- This SHOULD be important although it sometimes falls through the cracks of what someone people consider to be"Important".
The reason why this should be addressed during the earlier stages is simply because it allows the person getting involved know whether or not the other party is in it for the long haul or if "that"situation is going to be just a fling. For example if I am looking for a relationship and the guy is already in one then I know that he can not give me what I'm looking for.
It is extremely hard to try to enter into a relationship with a bunch of skeletons lying around. The person is going to notice if you were being honest or not because things will not be the way that should be. Phone calls will cease to exist and spending time will find its way to the back burner. It truly makes no sense to lead another person on. Playing with someones emotions is never Ok...

#2- What are your expectations entering that "Relationship" - The reason behind this is simple. It avoids wasted time. If I know that I'm not looking for a serious relationship then it makes no sense to pretend that I am. This can also be applied to how that relationship will function.. Always remember that honesty is the best medicine and it allows the involved parties to either stay of walk away.

#3- Sex- Ok so this topic comes up all the time whether your a virgin or already sexual active. If sex is the main goal in that situation then it should be addressed ASAP. It makes absolutely no sense to sit around and expect a serious commitment if you were already informed about whats going on. Thats why it is truly a great idea to make it known what you expect. It's nothing wrong with wanting or committing to a fling, just make sure that both parties are on the same page.

Now i'm going to break down how those same topics apply for

OLDER relationships

#1- You can switch question #1 around and get this for older couples. ARE YOU NOW INVOLVED WITH ANYONE BUT ME- It is a known fact that people cheat. It doesn't matter if the topic was addressed before or not it still can happen. Now if it happens it should be brought up. It's not fair to keep something so drastic from the person your with. Allow them the right to get over it or to move on and get over the hurt.

#2 -What are your expectations entering that "Relationship"- Just because you set expectations doesn't mean that the person you fall in love with will be able to truly fulfill all of them. At that point it is up to you to decided what you can tolerate and what you can't.

#3- Sex- I love this topic.
Where do I begin? Ok so if you and your partner are sexually active then this topic should always be addressed. How is your partner going to know what you like if it isn't discussed? You can't assume that they are either going to like, or perform the what and how you want them to. Getting comfortable may be the #1 reason why certain things aren't talked about. Sex can get boring rather quickly, so make sure to keep the other person informed of you your wants and needs.
               
                 Another simple thing that applies to both OLD and NEW relationships is consistency.
If the relationship is great then there's no reason why it can't remain that way. YES I am aware that debates and arguments happen, no 2 people will agree on everything. Every person is different and that in itself makes trying to be involved with another person difficult. But with communication comes forgiveness. All I mean by consistency is to try your hardest to keep the normal things normal.
I.E: If there are text 3xs a day then keep it that way. Sometimes change brings about insecurities. And if there is a set date night twice a week then there should be an attempt to ensure that it stays that way. The only way things should change is if it is communicated and everyone is on the same page. This will insure that no one is left out and the relationship can function without and glitches. It isn't realistic to have everything the same exact way all of the time but just make sure that it is addressed in enough time to avoid things from becoming strained.
I hope you all enjoyed this post and found it helpful.

SERENDIPITY

Hey Beauties.

    So I am back with another heart to heart entry. I know I haven't done one of these in a while so please bare with me while I get this off my chest.

     Have you ever been at a random place at a specific time and have something occur that leaves you feeling like you were meant to be at that very place at that very time. You always read in books about occurrences such as these and skeptics such as myself always sit back and doubt that such events ever really happen in real life. With that being said I am now a believer that things like this may actual happen.
   A scent of perfume, an intense stare where both eyes meet, a flutter of the heart, sweaty palms and all.
I find it truly amazing that someone or something may transpire in your life that can have you so confused, can have your plans and thoughts feel as if they were never actual truly planned out as well as you once thought. I can speak for myself when I state that having my vision cloudy and my judgement altered isn't really the norm. And it leaves me re-evaluating and questioning everything that once felt right. To meet an individual and have the world completely stand still sounds like a straight out of a fairytale type of moment. And If it never happened to me I would totally think that any person stating such a thing would be completely and utterly delusional.
   How can a person that you've just met make you feel as if you've known them your entire life?
Make you feel like there's no place in the world you should be instead of right there in that very moment! It has to be Serendipity right?
XOXO Brittanyalissa

Splash of pink

Hey Beauties,
                        So I've just completed another OOTD and I am so happy to post this particular video. Everyone by now is hopefully aware of how to color block, but what beginners don't quite grasp is that you can add a pop of color to just about any ensemble. There is a huge misconception that you can only add color on top of a bright color and that is totally FALSE. You can take a simple Black dress and add a yellow shoe and you have yourself a really classy yet etremly eye-catching outfit.  Or take a simple Black dress and Nude shoe and add a Bright clutch and you still will have heads turning.
So here is a slight demonstration of how I took a class simple dress and turned it into something that can be worn no matter what the occasion. I Truly hope you beauties found this helpful. Enjoyhttp://youtu.be/hChYnJfpmhc

Nick Minaj Inspired Hair

Hey Beauties,

            So my bestie/cousin decided that she wanted to try a new risky hair style. And who else to channel but Miss risky herself Nicki Minaj.. The whole style took about 3hrs to complete but it turned out great and she was very pleased with the outcome.
                                                    Enjoy the video.........

Zumba core workout and 2000 calorie diet Challenge

Hey Beauties,

  So that time of year has come around where everyone is making all of the resolutions that their sure break. And although this may seem like a resolution it definitely isn't one.
A few days before Christmas I got really really sick which lead to me being unable to keep food down. Well that little stint of sickness brought about a full on obsession with wanting to be a much healthier me.
So from then to now I have put myself on a strict 2000 calorie diet along with the Zumba core workout video challenge..
In the past 2 weeks I have lost a total of 3lbs and I couldn't be happier with the success so far.
My diet consist of fruits, water and one solid meal for the day... It goes as follows

A yogurt or piece of fruit for breakfast
A fruit for lunch
and a salad for my one meal..
                                                                  I am used to eating out almost every single night so as you all can imagine it has been challenging, my children are still requesting TGI Friday's and The Cheesecake Factory which makes it all that more difficult to stick to my regimen.. All and all I haven't cheated and for that I am proud...  Here are 2 of the latest video's surrounding my 30 day challenge. I hope you all enjoy

Thalassemia

Hey Beauties,


                       I've been gone for so long it feels so good to put my fingers to the keyboard and be able to just type away. For those of you who are unaware of what's been going on with my health, keep reading because I will be explaining it in this post.
                                                   
                                                             My Battle with Thalassemia

Since my son was born in 2008 I have been battling severe anemia. I've had numerous blood transfusions since and still no change. After a stay in the hospital my doctor finally decided refer me to an Hematologist which is a blood specialist. And finally after 5 long years and numerous test later I was finally diagnosed with Thalassemia.

Thalassemia is a blood disorder and honestly its been a day to day struggle in figuring out exactly what is going on with my own body... From what I understand it has something to do with my body not replacing blood the way it should.

Since the final diagnosis the Hematologist decided to put me threw a course of Iron transfusions to try to build me back so I could feel as normal as possible. The problem with that course a treatment is that Thalassemia has a history of causing what is know as Iron Overload... Which is pretty self explanatory but i'll go into detail a bit further..
Iron overload`is basically to much iron in the body which causes your liver to work in overtime and if it goes untreated may result in more serious health problems.. These problems include the heart and other organs. And may eventually turn fatal....

Ok so now that were past the scary part lets return to the story..
So I went threw a course of 14 iron transfusion treatments which were extremely scary. 3 days out of the week I was in a center that specializes in different intravenous treatments. To put it lightly I was down ,more days than I was up.

I ended up with a slight case of Iron Overload which resulted in heart palpitations, tiredness, fatigue, nausea, irritability and migraines. And when your a mom these types of problems become very overwhelming and heartbreaking to deal with.. At the present time I am awaiting a referral to the Cardiologist to undergo a few test with my heart and I guess once those treatments are done I'll know more about what the next course of treatment will be. I was told that I may have to go in once a month or every other month to have more Blood transfusions done, but that it still up int the air until Cardiology submits there findings (If Any)..

I am so scared and I feel like i'm living my last days on this earth... I try to remain positive but it can be trying at times.... I live each and everyday for my children and I pray for the day when I am back to being as healthy as I was before my son was born.Not knowing what's really going on with you health is hard and I send my love to all of those who are going threw the exact same thing. I know that things will get better and i'm holding out for when they do... I am so appreciative for all the people who have been by my side threw it all.. I still put on a brave face everyday and I dont think anything is going to change that.

Communication

Hey Beauties,
                   We are all told that communication is the key core to a successful relationship, but what happens when there is a lack of communication?
Well iv'e been giving this Question a lot of thought and I feel like sharing those thoughts with all of you.

 My opinion on this topic in a nutshell is that without communication their is no relationship! The best friendships turn into the greatest relationships. Why not be with someone who knows everything about you and still wants to know more? Being able to share your most intimate thoughts with the person you spend all your time with is an awesome feeling. But the problem seems to be that a lot of couples lack in the communication department............
The honest truth is that we need communication in order to get threw everyday life so why wouldn't we need  to have it in our partnerships? How will your significant other know your likes and dislikes if you are unable to express them?
                                Ok Ok Ok with all of that said i'm going to give you 3 ways that may assist in trying to get your point across with that special someone.

#1- Try writing down your thoughts.
If your afraid of how the other person may react, writing those thoughts and issues down on a piece of paper may be extremely useful. If your not around when the person reads it then you cut out that white elephant in the room.

#2- Attempt to set up a romantic dinner and then try to speak to one another.
Iv'e found that this technique lightens the mood, there is nothing like some great food to help the conversation on its way.

#3- There is always the old fashion way of just asking that person to have a sit down.
If you and your partner already have a bond then this method should be no problem at all. As long as you all take turns listening and not only speaking then it really should be a breeze.

As always I hope you all found this helpful... And please submit your other topic ideas at my email address..
