Color Blocking and Gina’s Grad

My friend Gina, who you should know by now or click here, graduated this weekend with a Masters in Law, focusing on…petroleum? Okay I didn’t get that exactly right (I know, I’m a bad friend) but, she’s going to be one of those lawyers who work for an oil and gas company…Congs Girl! I had these pictures taken while attending her super fun grad party.

About the pictures that came out blurry, it was kinda dark and my friend who helped me shoot was using my camera for the first time so things were bound to happen. Although I wasn’t the one in focus, she took some pretty shots…enough for you to get the idea.

I’m not high on wearing more than one bright color at a time, although I have wanted to blog about a few tricks on how to win the “pop of color” game cos let’s be honest, some people take it a tad too far. If you’re one of those who could use a little help, here’s one of my favorite tricks. Use 2 bright colors at a time and tone the rest down with something dark or neutral. Case in point, my top, shoes and necklace are loud, so I toned it down with a black skirt and bag. My second trick is to always tie the look together so you don’t look like you’re doing the most just like I matched my necklace with my shoes. Accessories are one of the easiest ways to help you tie your look together, so take advantage of that.

Finally, I just wanted to point out my love for that skirt and bag. If I could, I would wear that skirt everywhere because it makes me feel festive and I’m always ready for happy moments. As for the bag, I usually find black bags boring but I especially loved this one because of its unique pattern that gave it that extra cheese, setting it apart from the rest. A black purse is always good to have and I found my perfect match.

And in case you’re wondering;

Top and Skirt: H&M

Shoes: Corso Como purchased at Nordstrom

Bag: Carlos purchased at Nordstrom

Necklace: Charlotte Russe

Bracelet: Kate Spade

Have a lovely week and enjoy the pictures…of the cool people I met.

Love and Love…B

@JINYARamenbar always makes Houston’s top ramen @JINYARamenbar always makes Houston’s top ramen restaurants lists and rightfully so. The spicy chicken ramen was just right and the crispy chicken is…well my face said it all. So worth it and with really good service.

I love a sleek bun but without the heavy gel or fl I love a sleek bun but without the heavy gel or flat ironing my hair. I received this product for free from Influenster and InfinitiPRO by Conair in styling system dried and straightened my hair impressively really fast.
What used to be a 20-minute exhausting task that left my scalp with burns is now less than 10 mins, pain-free, and it knocks out most of the frizz so my hairstyle stays. 
It has 3 heat settings and on days when I want to dry my hair but keep the curls, I don’t use a comb, I blow dry while stretching the curls out with my hands—that way they are elongated but not straightened.

A lot of restaurants are empty (hello recession). A lot of restaurants are empty (hello recession). @PostinoWineCafe (Montrose) is one of the few remaining that’s pretty, with very delicious food. You can customize your bruschetta board and the skewers and dessert are sooo good. The Montrose location has a DJ for Saturday brunch hrs…it’s a vibe.
