I enjoy doing yoga, and I am attempting to do pilates (the pain and agony). I must stay fit and healthy, so a girl has to work it out! Keeping the abs tight and stretching are the focus of these two workouts below. Check them out!<br />

I want to take a new direction with this thing and focus on my natural hair styles and regimen, my everyday style as a <b><i>diva</i></b>, healthy lifestyle choices, words of encouragement, and my favorite things (i.e., baked goods, books, music). Let's see if I can keep up with this thing from now on! : )<br />
<br />
I'll start out with my favorite song by Monica...<i>Why I Love You So Much</i>. They have really been playing this song on the radio, and I can't help but jam to it. I dedicate this song to my future boo thing LOL. <b><i>Single and Fabulosa! </i></b><br />

I absolutely love wearing dresses! I bought this dress from <a href="http://www.francescascollections.com/">Francesca's Collections</a>, and it was on sale for $17.39 (originally $48.00). The earrings I bought to match are from Forever 21, and they were just $2.80. My shoes are from the Madden Girl brand. My hair is a simple twist out...the night before I re-twisted my hair with <i>Shea Moisture</i> Curl Enhancing Smoothie and then put my twists on rollers. I woke up this morning and took out the rollers and loosened the twists. The rollers help to lengthen the curl. Fierceness at its finest! <div>
