You Need to Get These Must-Haves To Stay Sane!

I've been big on self-care lately. Taking much-needed time out for yourself to remind you exactly who the f*ck you are and why you're such a badass. But sometimes, you need to have a time-out before you can do all of that. Everyone loves to act like they're a boss bitch online, but even the bossiest of bitches need to slow their roll and get back down to basics.

The Best Coffee You Haven’t Had Yet!

I wouldn't say I'm a purveyor of coffee. I do love a nice cup and prefer to brew my own at home. I haven't perfected the art of making blended coffee, but look out once I do! I wouldn't need Starbucks or Coffee Bean that much anymore. Lately, I've been on a roll of trying different coffees for my trusted and beloved Keurig. I have the standard faves -

Why You Should Invest in a Teflar Bag

I normally don't like to use 'investment' and 'luxury handbag' in the same sentence. I guess some bags could be seen as investments if you plan to keep them forever.

New Black-Owned Indie Brands You Must Try!

Sometimes, protesting doesn't mean going to a protest. You can also protest with your dollars. In light of everything going on, I decided to refocus my attention to supporting my community more and investing into Black women-owned businesses.

Happy Juneteenth! Now Be About That Life

This is a good time to tell you Breonna Taylor's killers haven't been charged. Juneteenth is the honor and celebration for when slaves were finally free. Now, contrary to what people think about July 4th, 1776, there were still slaves. Slaves weren't free until 1866. A whole-ass hundred plus years later. Texas was the last state to notify slaves had been free for two years. Two. Whole-Ass. Years. While
