Fashion Sundays with Vee!! "ShoeGasm"

It's that time again!! Fashion Sundays with Royal Beauty Vee!
Today's focus for you beautiful fashionistas is SHOES!!

Shoes are the way to every woman's heart aren't they! Ok well maybe I'm speaking for myself lol. It's no secret how much I ADORE a mean shoe so today I wanna discuss what's HOTTTT in shoe fashion.

These shoes are from Nicholas Kirkwood. He is a young designer born in 1980 in Germany when his father who was in the US Army was stationed there. So born in Germany but I consider him American *shrugs*. Any who, his shoe creations are second to none. NOBODY is seeing this man in the shoe industry in my opinion and when I say that I mean...there is zero competition. That's a bold statement right! Welp, I just call it like I see it! The shoes above (worn by Sarah Jessica Parker) have a tasteful splash of neon peeking out of the design to give it that stand-alone appeal that puts Nicholas in a class all his own! Do yourself a favor and copy and paste the link below to see his entire Spring 2012 collection!

Next up is the Neon Suede shoe craze!

First of all, I've ALWAYS been a devout fan of suede shoes! Add a LOUD color to a suede shoe and what you get is a masterpiece! Every shoe designer and every shoe store is catering to this craze!! All sorts of heels sizes, wedges and even flats are populating the shoe land in Neon colors. When wearing a shoe this colorful your outfit can not be the focal point. Busy prints or "too much" going on will destroy the attention of the shoe. With neon shoes....your shoe is your accessory so stay subtle with everything else. They say "history repeats itself", I can definitely cosign to that. Neons are so 70's but I'm not even mad because they are so FIERCE!!


Shoe designer Gabrielle Marina Gonzalez is unearthly with her shoes! Her wedges are made for a real fashion Goddess!

You can catch Lady GaGa often sporting these sky high wedges and LAWDDDDDDD let me tell you, you BETTA have talent to walk in these!! I am praying for your ankles as we speak!!! Oh and HELL YES I would wear these!! SICK ain't even the word to describe how awesome these shoes are!! Bow down to the Queen! This is one hell of a shoe statement, the kind that will have you gasping for air! Werkkk it!!!



Ok now it's time for the Grand Finale!
Does this image look familiar? These shoes are by shoe designer Gareth Pugh worn by Beyonce in her "Who Run the World" video! GOD AL MIGHTY is my reaction when looking at these killer shoes!!

I died, went to Heaven, died again and was resurrected by the shoe God herself when I first laid eyes on these!! My heart started pounding and I damn near blacked out! What in the world can really compare to these?!! What really floored me was how she rocked these bad babies with that sequined dress because it's just my style!! I would rock fire from this look!

These shoes are literally screaming...MOVE DA HELL OVA BECAUSE "MAWU" THEE AFRICAN SUPREME GODDESS AND CREATOR OF ALL THINGS is coming through!!!!!
Lawd have Mercy!! It's Fashion Sunday's with Vee!! Hope you had a Powerful ShoeGasm!! I know I did!

Im smiling

Today I'm smiling. I'm a smile-a-holic anyway but today its resignating through my pores.

I'm smiling because my mind is at peace. My heart is at ease and I feel free. Free from stress, free from depression, free from hurts, free from negativity. Today my smile is not forced, it's genuine and I feel like I'm glowing!

I'm smiling because my goals are being achieved. My life is blessed and I feel accomplished. I'm free from foolishness, free from emptyness, free from close-mindedness. Today my smile is not forced, it's automatic and it's growing.

I'm smiling because my intellect is being fed, my mind is expanding to areas unknown, and I've gained eye opening, life changing knowledge. I've been introduced to the tree of life and the moisture from the roots of it is what I'm drinking. Today my smile is not forced, I'm mentally out of the box and new wisdom is Overflowing.

I'm smiling because I'm physically satisfied. My body is being pleased from head to toe because his passion is crazy. I'm being loved from the depths of my soul and every ounce of my composition is heavily in tuned to him. I'm smiling because His LOVE is mind blowing

Today my smile is not forced. I'm smiling because I know EXACTLY where my future is going
I'M JUST SMILING

Sexy Sundays! What are you Wearing?

I'm a Fashion Whore!!! Yes I said it! I get off on creative, jaw dropping, eye catching, BOLD Fashion Statements! I've been into fashion since I was in the 4th grade and even studied fashion for 2years in high school. It's been a life long research project every since. I just can't get enough.

ok Ladies today I'm going to take you into a full "Head-to-Toe" MakeOver right from the comfort of your own home!! Take notes and don't be afraid to step outside your box:) I always recommend finding a celeb that best mimics your style and get your fashion inspiration from them. When shopping go for styles on the runways and in fashion magazines.
Ok now it's time for Head. Shoulders. Knees & Toes!

Head
Let's face it when your hair is not done it completely throws off your whole outfit! Your tresses have to polished to perfection FIRST!! I'm a weaveologist! I believe in Extensions ok! Extensions add the extra piece of red carpet star quality that you need. I'm not against natural hair or short hair BUT for me extensions are a quick low maintenance hair option that is sure to stay Fabb longer than other style alternatives. The hands down BEST hair site in the world is www.extensionsdirect.com
They deliver hair that is second to none in the industry and you get what you pay for QUALITY!

Shoulders
I'm in love with Victorian Era inspired Blouses. A blouse is completely different from a shirt ok lol! Victorian Blouses give a beautiful Royal Chic appeal and in my professional opinion it makes you stand out especially if you have the confidence to match. I love solid colors or profound prints. Sometimes floral prints can make you look elderly so try to stay away from that.
This Vintage style streams "Classic & Classy". It's an easy transformation from a daytime or nightlife look, it really can go both ways which is always a plus. Shop for blouses that synch in at the waist because it highlights your natural curves which is OH SO SEXY!!

Knees
Tights and Fashion stocking are so trendy aren't they! I wear them all year long. I have them in all styles, prints and patterns. When wearing lace tights remember that they are pretty much the focal point so don't go too crazy with your tops. I recommend a solid color top with trendy tights. Purchase a few pair of fishnets to. It's something about fishnet tights that seem to turn men on so make sure you have a few pair in your wardrobe ladies. Tights are NOT a workplace professional look so please don't attempt this on the job, you are going to come off wayyyy too sexy and in corporate America that is frowned upon. Most of the times when sporting bare legs a pair of stocking/tights are that extra statement piece that separate you from Basic --> to -->BADD!!

Toes
"The higher the heel the closer to God". Sky high heels are the epitome of shoe fashion! Ankle scraps are whats trending in heels this season. Anything around the ankle adds a touch of personality and a hint of seduction! I have ZERO discipline when it comes to shoes! No price is off limits and "color" is important. A lot of women feel safe in black attire and although I'm a colorful type of person I do understand that desire for "safety" in black. If you are a woman that caters more to black then ALL your shoes should be in color. It's nothing more sexier than a black dress, some lace stockings and a BOLD colored heel!

Alright Divas!! Here's your courtesy "at-home" MakeOver! It's Sexy Sundays!!! What are you Wearing!!

Spoil Yourself!

Who's guilty of "all work and no play"?

I don't want to live in a world where you can't enjoy the beauty in it!! Really, who wants to live just to work?! People really get caught up in bills and forget that life is NOT about a check to check, "who do I got to pay next", mentality. I feel sorry for people that never seem to have enough to spoil themselves because every dime they have coming in is also going out to collectors.

That's messed up to me seriously! It's overwhelming and depressing. You should be able to wine and dine yourself whenever you get ready and you don't have to be rich to do so! You can enjoy yourself whether you are making $8/hr or $80/hr. You just have to live within your means and find the best way to save a few dollars here and there. When making purchases the first thing I do is look for coupons. Whether online or in-store I first research a money saving deal out there that would allow me to pocket a few bucks. You can simply google a coupon for the store, product or service you are intending on using and usually there's always one available.

Just remember this....on the day God decides to call you home you want to be looking up at the sky saying "I enjoyed my time here" so do yourself a pleasurable favor and don't forget to SPOIL YOURSELF!

NEW FRAGRANCE | Reb'l Fleur by Rihanna

If you are anything like me then a simple aroma can put you in the most pleasant mood. It gives a whole new meaning to "AromaTherpy".

Scents and perfumes go hand-in-hand with that and I love picking up different perfumes! I highly recommend Rihanna's Reb'l Fleur it's truly a  dazzling line.

I picked up the ENTIRE gift set for only $65 and I promise you that is a steal!! I really felt like I was getting some freebies because the fragrance alone is worth that much. It's a sexy very feminine perfume (big bottle) that is accompanied by a 90mL shower gel, a 90mL body lotion and a pocket size perfume bottle that will fit in any size clutch bag. The black label bottle is the first release to this line and she also has a red label edition as well.

Any fashionista would adore this fragrance and it's truly worth adding to your collection!! Everyone loves to smell good so if you were ever wondering what perfume to purchase next, this one has my Royal thumbs up!!

It's the Beginning

The first day of the new year is always such a great day.

Kinda feels like good luck doesn't it? Feels like a fresh start! It's a reason to remind yourself of your blessing and find reasons to improve. New Year, New Resolutions, Re-Newed focus. So much positivity, everybody is in a great mood. I love it!

This is year I have no choice but to grind harder than never before. I have nothing holding me back from getting up and going as a please so I have to make good use of my time and produce results. I'm looking forward to accomplishing more than I did last year which by the way was also a great year for me. Now I need to re-construct my vision board and get another step closer to my goals. My goal list is healthy this year!

Ok so repeat after me: "No Distractions, No negativity:! Anything that's not lifting you up is holding you down so surround yourself with people and things that aim to elevate you!!

Happy New Year!
