Fashionista Wear: Horses and Fascinators

This weekend I went to the Virginia Gold Cup Races. A sort of Kentucky Derby like setting, but on a smaller scale. The weather was beautiful and my company was even better.

It looked like it was going to rain for a bit, but the weather was amazing

Showstopping: Marchesa Resort 2012

I'm dying over the Merchesa Resort 2012 collections. Designers Georgina Chapman and Keren Craig created what I call Goddess on clouds, due to all the floaty and airy designs. I want it all.

Random pics from Ghana: Bojo Beach

I was in Ghana a few months ago and I'm hoping to return soon. One weekday I spent the day on Bojo Beach and to describe it is just simply beautiful.  There is a lagoon that you cross over with a canoe to their crystal clear water. We were greeted by booming music and smiling faces. It was an amazing afternoon. Here are some random pics  and I'm looking forward to coming back.

the cutest school kids trying to teach me the azonto

our view when we left, breathtaking
Have an amazing weekend!

Fashionista Coiffe: Hair as Art

Lately I have been going through some changes with my hair. I decided to go natural, meaning no relaxers or products in my hair. Trust the transitions has not been that easy. I love updo's so when I spotted this style I had to have it. I call it hair art. Thank you Courtney at Salon Etc, I love it.
