I'm going to ramble a bit so here's the warning….

First off, I can't believe it's been so many days since my last post, life! Between driving long distances, automobile repairs, catching up on all my shows (Walking Dead, Scandal, Once Upon A Time), seeing Solange live (in Boston!) and eating frozen yogurt and homemade brownies…I've been doing everything besides blogging. I just finally got in from Boston and I am exhausted and tomorrow I have two meetings in the city ugh! I went to see Solange last night at the Paradise Rock Club where she sold out and gave one hell of a performance. She did all the tracks from True and a few from her previous album but one of my favorite highlights of the evening was her singing Selena's "I Could Fall In Love". Such a sweet surprise and every girl in the audience loved every minute of it.

For the pass few weeks my "whats in my bag post" some time back, has been receiving a ton of page views so I've been working on a updated post. I've been carrying this bag around with me everywhere and I know you guys are probably tired of seeing it but I love it so much! and I fit a lot of useful good stuff in here, so I can't wait to share it :)

Okay I have so much to do to prepare for what's going to be the longest Thursday of my life so I'll see you guys soon!

Hiding indoors and being super conspicuous in these wide leg stripe pants. I've been holding onto these babies I got for a measly $15.00 last winter; I just love after christmas sales. I am about 100% sure when purchasing I told myself "can't wait to wear these this spring", instead I let a few seasons fly right on by and wore them when snow was on the ground; perhaps during one of the coldest winters I've experienced in NY. I wore leggings underneath so I didn't freeze my ass off, I like to call that "transitioning my wardrobe". I can wear my spring pieces layered and think warm thoughts and I get more wear out of my clothes. No one, outside of fashion week, is wearing any color. I don't know about you but wearing bright colors makes me feel happy and one might even mistake the tears on my cheek to be tears of joy, I'd like to think that myself too, but in reality that's from the brutal seventeen degree cold.

What was suppose to be an attempt to trim my split dead ends turned into a new hair cut. Not by my choice, my beautician was simply scissor happy and not listening to my requests. I, however, am not completely disappointed with my cut, I've learned to make the best out of bad hair cuts. If it wasn't for my bad hair cut in 2009 there would be no Tiff James Deen. I voyaged off to the library on campus where Johnny studies. I just couldn't believe that he's managed this far in life without reading The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. In fact, when I referenced Mark Twains famous character, he replied by asking if Tom Sawyer was "some blogger" - he was either 1. raised by wolves or 2. a martian.

The Departed

Currently obsessed with these leather pants I picked up from Zara a month ago. I've been wearing them so much in fact, I ripped them twice. On the contrary, although I do love them, I am not obsessed with these gold socks. I just subconsciously keep reaching for them and not realizing it until I'm editing pictures. My feet have been taking a hiatus between wearing platforms and stilettos. I've been opting for comfort between wearing these Nikes and my velvet Zara slippers. Especially considering how cold it is, wearing heels doesn't make that walk to the car a fast walk.

Today's fixation with the wedge-sneaker has every girl wanting to embrace her inner tomboy and has me nostalgic remembering my Jordan and Nike dunk collection. Ah those were the days...Some time in 2009 I let some one convince me that my sneaks were not cool and I stopped wearing them. I was so impressionable back then...It's a good thing I never threw these babies away; especially since I've searched high and low for a cool pair of kicks and could not find what I was looking for. I understand now that was the universe's way of telling me, what I wanted all along was right in my closet :)

Why my four year old rocks!

Not only does Jonas's Nintendo house tons of pictures of me, but also his day to day activities, silly fun with his cousin, his vantage point of our travels, grandma doing home decor and off guard pictures of his dad in Georgia. I love that like myself, he's showing an interested in photography at an early age. I am raising an intelligent, silly, handsome and talented young man. Being a mother is not the easiest job in the world, especially being a young mother. I am my biggest critic; I am fully aware that I don't have all the answers and my way may not always be the best way, but I have the best intentions. I can sleep well at night knowing that I am learning from my mistakes and that I am a positive role model.
