Monday Motivation

Happiness is the secret to all beauty; there is no beauty that is attractive w/out Happiness and being happy doesnt mean that everything is perfect. It means that you've decided to look beyond the imperfections. We often block our own blessings due to feeling inherently "not good enough", "not smart enough", or "not worthy enough"...But you're worthy because you were born into this world and are here. Your being here and being alive makes worthiness your birthright... 
YOU ARE ENOUGH JUST AS YOU ARE!!! XOXOXO Pie

Wild'Out on Wale Wednesday...

An AMBITIOUS GIRL and I just want to win. Realizing that I rather chase my dreams than to try to chase these men, that try to chase these skirts, that try to chase those shots with flavors that aren't even as sweet as me.



Lately I have been on this Wale kick ever since I heard his song Ambitious Girl... It really made me take a step back to re-evaluate my life, the decisions I've made, the future I'm building for myself and the life I intend on having. The song motivates me to stay on track and continue to reach for the goals I've set for myself. I feel unlike most rappers who only choose to degrade and undermine the women they refer to in their songs, Wale tries a different approach and encourages us to go further and aspire to be more than just a cute face with a big waist, which is a rarity in the society we live in. I encourage every lady to listen to Wale's Ambitious Girls part 1 and 2 and just in case you don't have the time to look it up for yourself I've went on ahead and posted it below. I hope you enjoy it. XOXOXOXO

Time to Fall back into School

Summers is officially over and you know what that means, YES... Fall (which is my favorite season)  is finally here and school is now in session. YAY!!!!! I am so excited. I feel in this season your wardrobe and fashion choices are endless. You literally can wear a sweater then pair it with shorts and boots and it'll be perfectly OK... with the attitude of HEY WHY NOT???  But since this glorious time of year is back around I thought I would create a Look BOOK for you guys and put together some of my favorite back to school looks for this season. So make sure you look out for my creation's and don't be afraid to try some things out.

Thanks For Getting Your Daily Pieces of Pie XOXOXO
