Two years ago I started daydreaming about working with Nike.
Today, I’m flying to Paris with Nike for the Women’s World Cup.
When I first got my sisterlocks, I remember being so worried about taking care of them. I was nervous that my sisterlocks would unravel, snap off, not lock or even worse… not grow as long as I wanted them to. Five years later, I know that my hair isn’t as delicate and fragile as it was that first year when I was locing.
Now that I’ve relaxed about my hair a bit I’m much more open to trying new products in my hair. Over the past few months I’ve been slowly testing new things to see what I like.
These are the products I use on my sisterlocks:
This weekend, I celebrated my friend Oscar’s birthday at our friend Kyle and Andy’s home in The Hamptons. Last summer was my first time staying in the Hampton’s There’s something special about the style aesthetic that goes along with places like this. I wont lie… I love it!
It’s no secret that dresses are my thing.
They’re feminine, easily dressed up or down and if I’m rushing in the morning, I love making one decision on what to wear in the morning instead of mixing and matching tops and bottoms.
I don’t mind denim in the summer, but there’s something so special about floating around in a summer dress.
After a long weekend in the Hamptons (did you catch my friends doing an EPIC runway show around the pool on my instagram stories? lol) I came back to NYC still wanting to squeeze a little bit more out of my long weekend.
I bought a bunch of plus size summer essentials from Lane Bryant, including this adorable fit and flare, plus size maxi dress with ruffles… so cute, right?

If you like to be conservative, this dress has a snap in the bust area that keeps the panels closed. This was perfect for this beautiful and breezy long weekend.
These soft scalloped pink shoes have a block heel that is easy to walk in, I typically bring a second pair of shoes with me that are more comfortable and flat. With these shoes, I was confident leaving the house without a back-up pair. I knew I wouldn’t be in pain later.

I love having a boyfriend.
When I don’t have a boyfriend, it’s not the end of the world… until I need certain things done.
When I walk down the streets of New York City, I’m noticing that wide leg jeans are starting to pop up more and more, perhaps for obvious reasons; they elongate the legs, are super comfortable, and give a retro vibe that everyone is loving these days.So… why have I been so hesitant to wear them myself?
I was born and raised in California, but I live 3,000 miles away in New York City.I’m close to my family and speak to them almost every day, but I still miss being around them.One of my goals is to be able to visit my family more than once or twice a year. I want to be around more for special occasions and to just hang out with the people I love the most.I haven’t flown home for Mother’s Day in YEARS, but this weekend I’m making it happen.
