Beautiful and Insecure Equals No Balance

Hey Ladies,

I hope this message finds you in a happy and peaceful place today.

Recently I was offered a lovely compliment and before I knew it I found my self identifying flaws about my beauty. The older lady that offered the compliment made a statement that really hit me! She said why is it that beautiful black women or women period always depreciate our beauty.

 I was kinda caught off guard for I merely complained about a smile line on my face. In that moment I realized she was right as a proud black woman too many times I hear sisters take away from their beauty by giving light to their flaws. I believe we are all perfect imperfections of God and who he intended us to be.

 To day I write to encourage you to see beyond the flaws and appreciate the God given beauty remember you are a gift and treasure to this world. God saw you to be a perfect fit in his sight and created you in his image.

One of my favorite quotes comes from Lupita Nyong'o :

I am so empowered and inspired by her story and her beauty. I believe she is a role model for beautiful black women around the world. 

I encourage you to let Lupita's words inspire you today remember beautiful and insecure equals no balance. embrace and love yourself and all of who you are.

My Passion!!

As a child I always admire the way my mom styled her hair and flawlessly applied her makeup. I naturally imagined doing the same years before I had been given the permission to do so. I have a passion for making things beautiful and bringing out the best in things. As I have grown into a mature woman I notice the lack to encourage woman of all colors and creeds to embrace our own natural beauty. I believe it is my duty to find ways to inspire women through leading by example and when given the opportunity showing and sharing ways they can to be fierce and fabulous. It is my belief that if we as women began to love our selves and appreciate our own unique abilities we can stop the self hate and the hate against one another. Today I accept my calling and step back into sharing my tips and style inspirations with woman near and far!! I am you and you are me and together we can be that beautiful fabulous change in the world!!
