Hey Guys! I hope you enjoyed my last post about french riveria styles. I really enjoyed that comfy look. Today I wanted to share with you all some of my favorite fashions from my photoshoot. It was two weeks ago when I had the pleasure of working with Melissa, Stephanie and Micha. These ladies were awesome to work with! Once I decided the direction that I wanted to go, these girls did an amazing job to help bring that to fruition. Let’s take a peek at what these ladies did for my look

The summer is a beautiful time of the year but it might not be the same for your mane.  The humidity can definitely have your hair out in all crazy directions. Luckily, I have a couple of hair hacks to share during the humid summer months.

Last night, I attended an event hosted by Grey Goose Vodka. Since Grey Goose originated in France, it was no surprise to see the culture infused in the decor. In true “Nekia” fashion, I needed to make sure that my attire reflected the theme for the evening.

During the summer I can not seem to get enough of wraps. This unique variation of a sandwich has a variety of options to indulge in. When the summer heat kicks in and I want a light bite, I generally like to visit Protein Bar. However, their prices aren’t always comparable to my budget. Additionally, the nearest location is downtown in the middle of chaos. To cure my craving for their Buffalo Chicken Wrap, I headed to my nearest grocery store and picked out a few items to re-create this delicious meal.

We’ve all been through breaking up with a loved one. It doesn’t matter if the break-up was good or bad, it’s still a very hard thing to do. It’s ok to feel stripped of your emotions, identity and ambitions in this type of situation. However, the power in falling down is getting back up. During those moments of despair (and singledom), I wanted to give you some words of wisdom to get you back on track after a break-up. These methods helped me, try them out and let me know if they work for you.

During the summer –when the weather is nice, you have a chance to explore food, fashion and everything in between. Every year, I tend to obsess over a few finds along the way. Although summer has not come to an official end, I had to share a few of my must-haves this year. From eye wear to kitchen supplies, I’m running the gamut.

The sun can wreak havoc on your 4th of July weekend, for a more enjoyable holiday outdoors I have an array of options for the family.

Searching for a good long lasting nail polish is like a diamond in the rough. I grew up with two professional manicurist in the house, my mom and grandma, so I’ve tried out a couple of different brands and techniques more than I can count. From ‘no-chip’ manicures to acrylic nails and everything in between…yep! I’ve tried them all. The damaging effective from them are something left to be desired. I’ve searched endlessly, high & low for a polish that will not only keep my nails healthy but allow me to display my natural nails.

This was my first Youtube tutorial showing tips and tricks on how to achieve baby soft skin right in the comfort of your home with a few simple products that you can find in your local grocery store. This video is an oldie but goodie. Although it was done awhile, the techniques used are still implemented in my daily beauty routine to achieve soft skin in a week.
