Life of a Vi Diva: May Vacation 2013

It's actually Memorial Day now! Most folk are in Miami, Myrtle Beach for Black Bike Week or just gone but not me. I'll get away NEXT month for vacation even though there's a nice trip at the end of this week in store! OOOOOOH I CAN'T WAIT! Anyway, it started out as usual, I worked out to burn those calories I added over the past 2 days ...

A holiday and vacation doesn't mean you break from taking care of your temple, it means GO HARDER since you have more time! I've been focusing on my core and inner thighs a lot, my most troublesome areas since losing the 50 lbs. It's coming along but not as fast as I'd like (internal voice says patience not so young grasshopper).

After an awesome cold shower it was nap time and that's just what I did. I had to rest a bit because I knew tonight was going to be OFF THE CHAIN fun! I was claiming it in advance as I sit here trying to remember how to act in the club. *laughs* Although it's been 17 months since joining the VI-LIFE I still don't have a 50 lbs down, size 6 closet and I was CLUELESS as to what I was going to wear! To wear one of my wigs or my natural t.w.a. (teenie weenie fro), jeans/skirt/dress, heels/wedges *SCREAMS* ... THIS is why I don't go out. This is frustrating, extremely frustrating. I am not big on wearing make up but I wanted to enhance my looks just slightly so I had to figure out what to do there too.

Several dresses and shoes pulled out, to add color or not?

After adding a little volume to my eyelashes, a very small amount of foundation and eyeliner was a applied AND the final decision ...

I think I did pretty darn good! An awesome blue open front, tie waist dress purchased from Meow and Barks Boutique last year that'd never been worn accented with animal print accessories to include the shoe. Since I'm not big on clubbing I had no idea where I'd wear this short little lady of mine but I had to have her and here was the perfect opportunity! I wanted to go bright with accessorizing but something in me said no ... glad I went with that something in me. Upon arrival to Square One for Martini Monday I saw several friends which was my assurance I'd have an awesome night. We entered right before Special Formula took the stage for the second time and they were AWESOME! They should have definitely been a part of the Jazz Fest!
