Blondie on the Mic: Your Fave Ambassador

Blondie on the Mic: Your Fave Ambassador

Reds
Last spring I attended the 20th Annual World Natural Hair Show in Atlanta with one goal in mind: SOMEBODY is going to hire me & these blonde tresses as a hair model!! I had a few companies in mind but at the top of that list was Aunt Jackie's Curls & Coils, an Atlanta based hair brand who's products I've used on my hair for years. When I got to the booth I spoke to the first person I made eye contact with -who turned out to be their Global Marketing Director! She loved my energy & wanted me on the team!! I expected things to pop off IMMEDIATELY but that's not always how things work. Months went by & nothing had changed, but I wasn't discouraged! I was more…

No More Necole Bitchie?

No More Necole Bitchie?

Reds
Today is a bittersweet day for this blogger & many others inspired by a sassy, big haired, gorgeous gal with the bitchie-est blog on the web! Today Necole Bitchie announced she will no longer run NecoleBitchie.com and is pursuing her true passion. For 7 years NecoleBitchie.com has kept us informed on all the hottest celeb news & gossip. For me there was no Media Take Out, if Necole didn't post it I didn't care. I loved that her posts were opinionated & would read celebs for days for their poor choices, but still had a level of class. She had boundaries, not a whole lot, but enough to clearly separate NecoleBitchie.com from a trash gossip site. A part from being a successful blogger, Necole inspired many with her life story…

Are you afraid of heartbreak?

Pinks
contributed by Nique You may look at that question and say, “Hell yeah, who wants their heart to be broken?” Of course no one does. But I’m not asking if you LIKE your heart being broken. I’m asking if you’re afraid of it. Are you passing up guys/girls because you suspect that the only inevitable conclusion with this person is heartbreak? Are you ending relationships too quick because you think there is no way things will ever get better and a quick escape is the best escape? Are you sticking to your significant other like white on rice because you feel like as soon as you let that person out of your sight, they will surprisingly become the clumsiest person in the world and then miraculously trip and fall “into”…

Overcoming the Struggle Within Yourself

Pinks
contributed by Kaydee Sometimes in life you have to be a vessel for yourself. Gone are the days of crying into your pillow at night because you don’t know how the countless bills will get paid. Gone are the days of putting yourself down thinking you are not worthy to receive God’s blessings. The days of looking in the mirror disappointed with what you see are over. The pity parties you’ve been throwing, hosting, and attending every year are gone. Let God into your life. Let the blessings of God consume you and lift you up. If you don’t have a job; speak employment into your life. When you struggle to make ends meet; speak a blessing into your life. Kneel down on your knees and pray to God. Give…

Every now & then many of us get a lil un-enthuzed on the road to health and fitness. Whether your body isn't changing fast enough for your liking or perhaps you've hit a plateau -we sometimes get discouraged to continue the journey. Well one of my fit-spirations, @FollowTheLita took it upon her self to help us out & kick us out of our funk! Excellence Over Good If you stop when you’re satisfied with good you may never know what excellence feels like. Sometimes a little accomplishment distracts us from excellence!

The Lack of Black in Fashion

Pinks
contributed by Verity Reign Hey, darling loves! Here's one of my recent posts to HelloBeautiful----the definitive lifestyle resource for today’s Black woman. Enjoy! _______________________________________________________________________ Why I (and Women Who Look Like Me) Am to Blame for Fashion's Lack of Black By: Verity Reign It’s no surprise that when it comes to the world of mainstream fashion and beauty, our rich hues are very scarce. It’s been this way since the beginning. Growing up, I don’t remember too many brown models. As with each generation, there were a few tokens—Iman, Naomi and Tyra—that were constantly recycled in fashion and beauty campaigns, as if there was a shortage of qualified Black women on the planet to choose from. Every now and then we’d catch a new face, but the buzz around her was so quiet that you…

Personal Growth pt.2

Pinks
contributed by Kaii In a previous article from 2012 I wrote these words:   “My definition of personal growth consists of finding out who you really are and the person you are destined to become. It’s not easy to do of course and this definitely takes time. In order to experience personal growth you will find that some people in your life will be left behind. Not everyone will want to grow up and put childish things aside, this is where you must separate yourself in order to find yourself. Your road to success should involve only those who desire to be successful as well. People who deal with drama, hate, and negative attitudes should be politely dismissed from your social atmosphere. God did not create us in a package,…
