Another MEME! Least Likely..

Please bear with me good people of Blogsville, in all reality work and the side hustle has been kicking my ass, so I just swing by my girl Uzo and just tap whatever she has popping, here is a new meme, and I promise I will hit y'all up with wat's really hood with me real soon....


Hairdo I'm least likely to rock: I don't like to experiment with colors and I am particular about weaves, I have a weave on now and as much as I love to keep my natural healthy and tight, I will do anything that will make me look natural like I have my own hair on. No lil kim jump offs here.

Habit I'm least likely to kick: Laughing mischievously, I am a happy go lucky, crazy jokester, nothing is too crazy for me, as long as the person on the other line is laughing too, it's a wrap for me.

Car I'm least likely to drive: Any van of any kind, I don't care how many kids I end up having, I will never drive a VAN. Being a soccer mom is all good but that whole look just spells, I have no life! I just breed rug rats and pick up after a slob of a husband.

Fashion trend I'm least likely to try: I am a fashion whore and will experiment but as a professional stylist, I am most likely to hook it up and be fabulous at the end of the day.

Hobby I'm least likely to take up: Honestly I don't even have any hobbies, If I haven't picked it up right now in my life then I just don't indulge in it. Hobbies are for old people, really if you sit at home all day and do stuff (hobbies) you might need a little more spice in your life.

TV show I'm least likely to appear on: Reality shows irk me, but I will never, ever appear on Flavor of love. if there is anything in the world after slavery that has brought women down, it's this show. Flav is a toad, he looks like a black iguana ( God forgive me because you created him) but damn! dude is ugly.. I know you should never say never but if offered $10 million to be on this show, I won't even be polite when rejecting this offer. I'll be throwing things around in the process, it's ridiculous what women would get up to for money and fame. what about integrity, what about posterity? what are you going to tell your daughter when she has questions about life? " Well shequila, I slept with an iguana to get to the top, I did it for you baby" Yea, I'm sure you did...psssssssstttt (long hiss) moving right along.....

Popular food I'm least likely to try: Sushi, yeah I said, I'm not that bourgeios, I'm not adventurous with food, I have a very weak stomach. I get real sick easily, so in my travels, except when I'm travelling with or going to see my moms, I pack my own food.

Disorder I'm least likely to develop: I can't even even imagine myself with any disorder lol..I know I'll laugh at anyone with a disorder so I don't even know the answer to this one LMAO....

Of all the people I know, I am the least likely to: to be asked to accompany anyone to a party or an event, I have been called anti-social. I am not a very outgoing person. I'm a complete couch potato. I'll rather stay home and catch a comedy or a good movie. I am also the least likely to be told anything funny about anyone cause I'll laugh for days. My high school class mates still call me stupid till date, things they told me over 10 yrs now is still a joke on them lol...

As far as future ambition goes, I'm least likely to: Politics and nursing...Don't do blood or pick up after anyone. I also don't like to be done 'durty" or do anyone 'durty'...

New Beginnings 2008!!


Wat's up y'all..

Like wat's really good!...

Happy, Happy, New year.

I'm embarassed to say, that I forgot my login information. That is why I haven't updated my blog in so long and when I find it, I realise how long it's been. I'm like are you serious?


That is the reason, y'all haven't heard from me, pele dears. And no one should front too, it's not like it's been jumping in blogsville anyways. People let's get it together, let's do this in 08..

So how is everyone doing ?, How was your holiday? by that I mean those of you that has been participating in blogville.

I've been well, percolating and anticipating all the good things that life has to offer me in 2008.

I was richly blessed in the year 2007, but I know the goodies in 2008 will wow me!

But in all, big things are popping and little things will step in this new year. No foolishness of any kind, no ignorance or sheisty individuals. I'm done with fakers and haters.

Just gonna get my grown woman on.


So onto the big things going on this new year, have you checked out : http://www.linanycouture.com/ recently, I tell you we had the most fabulous photoshoot ever, check out all hot guys and georgous Amber, well dressed, all cropped and ish, looking hella sexy.
I'm just saying, I get a lot of satisfaction from what I do, I put all my all in it. I intend to get this company out there where it should be.
Somebody tell Mariah Carey to give me a call, tell that girl she has the body of a Goddess and I can style/dress her like one. A chick with her kind of money and body, pushing 40 deserves someone on her side, setting her on a pedestal.


Why is she always dressed like some confused teenager or always walking around half naked, I don't get women at times, take my girl Halle, just cos of her a lot of heifers are trying to get pregnant. Even the so- called menopausal ones. Chick has this game locked down. She put class back on the map in Hollywood, flawless. With the likes of Britany Spears and Paris Hilton, I gave up a while back.
But just holla at your girl, let me know's good or hood or whichever way you roll.
Peace out and I will be blogging a lot more often. Trust me..
One..

Hands down! Italians are the best dressed people in the world.. My trip to Milan..

What's up y'all!!. I know! I know I have no explanations for being missing in action but I've actually been away in Milan, preparing for a photoshoot for my company promos. I tell you running a business is not easy, I want to give a shoutout to anyone who has been able to do that and hold it down cos it's tough.

Well on to the good stuff, I was in Milan all of last week, just got back so with that I greet y'all with a "ciao', and va bene' (which means what's up, or howdy or hello and the other means very good I hope).

I fell in love again with that place but most importantly because I could stand in the middle of Central Milano and gawk at well dressed people all day. Beautiful people, groomed and well put together. Fashion for an italian is a priority, he might not have a home to go to, or ride a bicycle instead of a car (which they actually prefer). But they must, and I repeat must have in- season coats, boots, man bags/briefcase and trenches for the men, and the women, DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON ITALIAN WOMEN! They are a riot...
Case in point, I saw an 86 yrs old woman rocking a Bulgari shades and Burberry trench and this chick was styling effortlessly.









I was also in Sirmeone, Bergamo, Brescia, Mantova, Leone and Carpenedolo. I moved around a lot and had to keep up with a few appointments and business meetings, but its still all good in the neighborhood. I’m back now and I hope y'all are doing okay. Still jetlagged but back to work and looking forward to the photo shoot I am directing for Linany Couture. I will put up more pictures of my trip, until then holla at a sista.

One!

Please pray for my friend....






Hey y'all. I haven't left blogville not at, all just missing in action. Away visiting with one of my closest friends Ms Lyle Dorsey aka -La Consuelos Leilei. My friend Lyle is HIV positive and very ill at the moment. I needed to go spend time with him cause he was dealing with so much and wasn't sure how much longer he had to live. Before I proceed, let me tell you all a little about my friend.
They say every fashionista has a gay moose, well mine is my dear friend Lyle. He is my biggest critique and adviser. Lyle used to be one of the best hair dressers/make up artist you could ever meet in the Northeast, my girl will have you looking like a diva in a minute.
He is also one person who can put you straight, tell it like it is.. Case in point: I just flew into Dallas, where he currently relocated to since he got ill to be near family, rented a car and, checked into a hotel and proceeded to go see him..getting to his apartment I knocked and he rushed out to meet me. first words out of him mouth:
Lyle: Bitch! Where are your bags, tell me they're in the car!!
Me: I'm glad to see you too, they are in the hotel room.
Lyle: Hotel! You bourgeois bithes kill me, I'm out here fixing your ass a room and you got a hotel, I should slap you in the mouth, scrawny, half dead motherfucker.. You look good, a few extra pounds but you alright by me..is that Balenciaga?.. I hate your ass, come here girl, oh I've missed your bourgeios ass...
That's my friend. We had a lot fun the few days I spent there, he's much better though, still stressed and distressed but he danced and sang for me,mixed me a tape of love songs, we went shopping and got pedicures were he proceeded to curse the Chinese lady out and accuse me being prejudiced against other races right infront of the lady.
I had to leave and head back to New York and he just sat there crying. I have never seen my girl cry but he did and guess the words out of his mouth right after the "crocodile tears"
Lyle: What are using on your face (I'd been breaking out over stress)
Me: Lancome why?
Lyle: You need to get a refund honey, on a scale of 1-10 right now booboo, your face is a 6 and that is not good enough, you need to get into the beauty supply store and get you some ambi, it's all but $2. You need to quit hanging around dem white people with their products.. it aint for you booboo, you're black!! And oh yeah, you been real grouchy since you got here.. I suggest you let someone play around in that "monkey" catch a tail or something. You too young to be this uptight.
Me: Thanks lyle, you are a real inspiration.
Lyle: Bitch! I tell like it is, aint no way around the truth.
He asked me almost every half hour while I was with him to to pray for him, and I do, I really do. I just hate the fact that it's gonna end like this for him. He chose this lifestlye and lived it roughly I must say- He was a Serial dater, a complete flirt and charmer. You can tell from the before and after pictures that he has lost a lot of weight, but he still retains his fabulous personality and run way walk.
Please pray for Lyle, HIV/Aids is real and can happen to anyone.
