Hey Nubians!

"Invest In Your Hair Because It's The Crown You Never Take Off"
A lot of people have been complimenting my hair lately and asking where I get my color done which is super nice. I've used a large variety of products throughout the years but lately I've been sticking to mainly Aveda products and Aveda Color. I've been getting my hair colored a nice lavender shade and dark brown by my friend/senior stylist Maria at g Aveda Salon & Spa at Downtown Summerlin in Las Vegas. She's a super sweet heart. The type that talks to you about your life, dances while she mixes color ha ha she's great. 

My hair has gone through quite the journey to get to this happy place...

At some point in time my hair ended up looking like this photo below. It was a half blonde or I guess you can say blondish color and half dark brown. I was trying to slowly go platinum but decided to give up on that journey for now and focus on my hairs health after seeing some breakage.


A big perk with my color in particular is that it has faded very nicely as well. It looks like a silver kind of color now and I plan to keep it that way for a while. 

Thanks to those of you have kindly complimented my hair. If you have any questions, leave them in the comment box below.

Zappos is hosting a Drive-In movie night this Saturday August 27th 2016. I've never been to a Drive-In movie in my life so I'm hoping to make it. There's something so very cool about drive-in movies. They remind me of a simpler time I wish I lived in. I must plan my outfit accordingly. I'm hoping to pop some popcorn and make it with my boy toy or a girlfriend. We'll see what happens.

And what's even better... wait for it... They're showing Star Wars The Force Awakens! Yes! 



Definitely cool for my Vegas friends to check out or if you're in town. Cheers!

Hey Nubians,

Breakfast Is A Big Deal. 



You know, I never used to be much of a breakfast person most of my life. I would just wake up, have coffee, and zoom out the door like The Flash (see what I did there?). But through the years
it became a necessity to me for a few different reasons. Some people say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day for health purposes and to give you energy. It definitely gives the body fuel to have some nice, enjoyable food in the morning.I have also found that as I get older I crave peace in my life. I no longer want to rush out the door, I want to sit and daydream a bit before I have a long day of work ahead of me. You can call it foodie meditation or something of the sort, but I need a nice breakfast to start my day off right. 

I often frequent Einstein Bros. Bagels here in Las Vegas on West Sahara. Recently they released the Chorizo Sunrise and it is everything I've dreamed of and more. "Come for the Chorizo, stay for the Fresh Cracked Huevos". The ingredients include Fresh-Cracked Eggs, Chorizo, Avocado, Jalapeño Salsa Shmear and Pepper Jack Cheese on a Fresh-Baked Green Chile Gourmet Bagel. My secret for kicking it up a notch and getting it to taste even better for my palate you ask? I get it made with a Cheddar Jalapeño Gourmet bagel instead. POW!

If You're in Las Vegas Sometime Soon... You Must Visit The Cosmopolitan Ice Skating Rink! 



The Cosmopolitan Hotel transforms it's Boulevard Pool into The Ice Rink. Love the thought of skating with a view? Well you'll love this! It's an absolute winter wonderland and you get to enjoy ice skating as you overlook the heart of The Strip. That means cool vibes in the air, bright lights everywhere, and don't forget some delicious drinks to keep your warm.

But wait, there's more! Being that it's outdoors and you might get chilly, the venue also includes fire pits, s‘mores, warm cocktails and more. Another very cool feature you get to experience is snow showers! Which trust me, is rare to the Las Vegas Strip.  It's basically just the perfect winter/holiday chill spot to hit up with your friends on the strip. So much fun and priced very fairly.

Best Friends Animal Society's No More Homeless Pets Network focuses on building relationships and working with rescue organizations and municipal shelters across the country to end the killing of dogs and cats in our nation’s shelters. I am so impressed and blown away at the fact Zappos are doing this. I wish I can adopt one right now but my apartment isn't big enough being that I already have 2 dogs. I do however highly encourage anyone reading this to really think about it. Dogs and cats can make great companions and amazing friends. They're great listeners too ;-) 



Below are the participating locations. In addition to the partner locations listed below, you can adopt for free at any Best Friends Animal Society location in Utah, Los Angeles, and New York City. Their Kanab, UT sanctuary will transport pets to all 50 United States, and Canada. Help give these beautiful cats and dogs a warm home if you can!
