It's The End Of 2011!!

Ok so I totally did NOT make a resolution. No I'm gonna go to the gym more because Lord knows I'll be out of my contract by Feb lol. No I'm letting go of this and that because I already did that a long time ago! I just really look forward to what the year has in store for me :)

Hopefully I'll spend more time with my loved ones, and less time being too busy to do anything. I definitely need to relax more.

Ok time to countdown my Top Moments of the year (Good & Bad)

In No Particular Order.....

New York Fashion Week

Ok, here's my experience of NYFW....

First things first, I was extremely tired arriving to NY at 2am with tissue shoved in my right nostril, because of my cold. I'm not even going to speak about the crap I had to deal with when I arrived to my hotel. Lets just say I was not a happy princess and they saw my attitude. Anyway, even through my stuffy nose, sore throat, and debate with the front desk I was still very much excited about the presentation in the am!

I had the pleasure of attending a Pink Tartan presentation during NYFW with CeCe. Team ZariiDesigns was definitely in the building! I loved the show BTW. Inside the Lincoln Center was craziness and fashion, but believe it or not I had even more fun outside lol. I'm talkin pictures, interviews, fashion, fashion, and you guessed it fashion.

I was surprised people wanted to take my pic and interview me...what am I a celeb or something?? Ha! Anyway, thank God I knew about how to give a great interview, and to always always ALWAYS remember what designer(s) you're wearing.

I definitely would have stayed longer, but of course I had to head back home to DC.

Here's a collection of pics I took inside and of the awesome fashionable people I captured outside...oh and myself of course ;)

**Sorry the pics are out of order! I'm on mobile blog alright...geesh ;)**

Song Of The Day

So everyone knows Queen Bey's song Who Run The World (girls) right? If not, here's a link to it and PLEASE remove yourself from your rock you've been living under asap...

http://youtu.be/VBmMU_iwe6U

I chose this song for obvious reasons. Women are doing big things everywhere everyday. Now if only we can remove catty, vindictive, childish GIRLS a lot more would be accomplished. We would support each other more, instead of trying to tear others down. That's only in a perfect world we can only dream of *sigh*

Are all friendships worth reconciling???

My answer to this question is simple.....NO!

Keep in mind that this is just my opinion, but seriously though all friendships are not even built on "realness". Sometimes people are only your friends for selfish reasons such as who you know and what you can do for them. With that being said, do you think staying friends with that person is worth it? 

Consider your age: People grow apart as they get older. You may have known your "best friend" since grade school, but are you still calling them your best friend, because they are or because you feel that you need to have some type of loyalty to them?  Some mature and get wiser, and some well...don't. That doesn't mean that you can't still have love for them. 


Consider your goals: If your goal is to become a successful human being, then you need to surround yourself with those that have the same drive and goals you do.


Consider your outlook on life in general: Maybe, just maybe you're not into the same things anymore and that's fine. This brings me back to you guys just growing apart. It's ok if you change. I'm not the same Toni I was five years ago, and I definitely won't apologize for it. I've grown up a lot, and my view on things have changed tremendously. 


My last thing to consider is how true is the friendship?? If you guys bicker and fight about everything, are you even friends? I know my friends and I have disagreements, but we're also adults and we know that we won't always agree on everything. It's a big difference between an argument/disagreement to a full out beef. Are you kidding me? Once you get to a certain age or place in your life, you need not "beef" with your friends. Open up your adult mouth, speak up, and express your feelings. 


I can go on and on about this subject, but I kept it short and sweet for you dolls :)

Fun, Friends, Foolishness (NYC)

Oh Em Gee... I totally forgot to blog about my trip to NYC with my girls CeCe (@Mz_AmaZin21) and KC (@ModelKenieshaC) ! We had a ball!
I'm just glad I got to experience NY without any work involved.

The first night was full of foolishness at the club *giggles* the guys in the club were in love with CeCe and her mini dress and KC with all that booty lol. I must say that it was funny dodging all the crazy looking dudes...I definitely kept lots of vodka in my system to get thru that night :)

Anywho of course I had to see Madame Toussands it was so fun in there. I loved it and took pics with like every single wax figure lol.

Then there was the museum of sex .... I'll leave that alone ;)

Anyway later on we went partying at Taj where I had plenty of vodka in my system again! The party was cool  It reminds me of home except for the party went on till 5. We didn't sleep at ALL that night.

Overall it was a fun trip. Of course I'm gonna say EVERYTHING that happened that stays between us three ;)

What kinda pasta is that???

So I recently hosted a crazy ladies night at my place filled with food, girl talk, secrets, and of course likka!! (liquor) followed by bottle poppin at Oxygen :)

I love those crazy girls. I can't give all the details, but lets just say we are truly some bad girls ;)

The funniest part of the night had to be when I brought out the main course Penis Pasta (photo below) as we played a round of Who Is The Biggest Pervert. I didn't win of course since I'm super innocent *adjusts halo* I did come in 3rd ;)

I could get used to these ladies nights!

Follow the ladies on twitter

Song of the day

Fly -Nicki Minaj feat. Rihanna

•The lyrics below stand out the most to me. If you know me, and witnessed the recent events you'll understand ;)•

I came to win, to fight, to conquer, to thrive
I came to win, to survive, to prosper, to rise
To Fly

.....I hear the criticism loud and clear
That's how I know that the time is near

.....Cry my eyes out for days upon days
Such a heavy burden placed upon me
But when you go hard your nays become yays....

Song Of The Day

Bag Lady -Erykah Badu

I know I took it waaaay back but I've been listening to that song everyday. Maybe it should be ''Song Of The Week''

Anyway, of course I liked this song when I was younger, but when you think about it what did I really know about baggage in 10th grade? Songs mean so much more when you get older. I chose this song, because I myself had to learn how to let things go to GROW! Carrying around baggage not only hurts you and stops you from receiving your blessings, but you also can hurt others around you. I for one have experienced hurt, and only hurt myself even more by holding on. When I released all my anger, hurt, and tears I felt so much better. So to everyone out there holding on to that baggage.....
LET IT GO, LET IT GO, LET IT GO, LET IT GOOOOOO :))

My Valentine's Day =)

Valentine's Day this year was great! I actually never really had one that was worth putting in the books. Sure I got a Teddy Bear here and some roses there but a special day that I felt was all about me....ummmm never.

My best friend and I started this little Valentine's Day tradition when we were like 18. We spent it together every year, and had a ball. *giggling* I just thought about when we had a theme one year to see who wore the best outfit. Of course I was the winner (love you Sash). Anyway we held on to that tradition every year.

Last year was different though. Sadly, my cousin was killed by her husband on Valentine's Day, as you can see no one was in the mood for any kind of celebration. I'm happy to say that justice has been served. It won't bring her back, but he will be spending the rest of his life in jail.

I wanna switch gears though. My reasoning for this post is really because I felt like a princess all weekend =) Early Saturday morning, I got a trip to the hair salon paid for by my Valentine. Afterwards, I got a pair of killer boots. Boots instead of flowers and candy? Yep! Anyone who knows me understands I LOVE shoes and do NOT like flowers. We took a trip to another store and got a few more things. He teased me saying that the word "no" was definitely not in his vocabulary that day, and that I'm too spoiled lol. My night ended with dinner being cooked for me. It was delicious by the way =) That was Saturday.

Monday (Valentine's Day) was special too. To bad my balloon flew away though *tears* I still got a cute card and a trip to The Cheesecake Factory just because I've been wanting Cheesecake and made it known by being a brat LOL.

Anyway dolls, I hope everyone had a beautiful Valentine's Day. Even if you're single I'm sure that you are loved by many! It's not about the gifts, it's about the love even if it's just self love.
