All Month LONG--Christmas!!!


on the way to the Christmas party 2012
As I sit here watching this movie on Lifetime I'm trying to figure out what would be interesting enough to entertain you all.  As I sit her starring at my fuzzy pink slippers it dawns on me Christmas is right around the corner goodness knows I feel it so...
     Flashback a few months school is out Thanksgiving is over......I have pix of my awesome food btw....may post them....but most recent....the holidays where people over indulge and spend money they don't have the holidays are suppose to be a stress free time of family time, extra caring and sharing instead it had become a time that is pumped up by the retail industry and well call me Ms. Scrooge but I love the thrill of the holidays as they are now don't get me wrong if it one day happens and I get my happily ever after then good for me but until then I will continue to go after all the things that I strive to achieve and retail is my gateway so until that happens call me queen of the retail bullies---we are one.




 My holidays consist of holiday parties when time allows work and more work that is my sacrifice but I will still enjoy life as it exist !!!


    During the holidays I work too many hours but I don't mind because honestly what else am I going to do....sit in the house and blog...lol...cook to many cookies wrap non necessary gifts and sleep whenever I get a minute to myself....oh and I think to much like while I'm updating here I need to update my beauty blog...STYLCON....link on my favorite sites list.
did my own makeup
                                                                                     What am I doing right now I'm trying to keep it all together so when the time comes I'm more then 100% ready for the leap.  I just pray that God keeps me strong and gives me a sound mind.

Have a very Merry Christmas and I Happy New Year....and overindulge do what you want you only live once.....I'll put the really fun stuff on my beauty blog....AND THAT'S MY WORD!!!

My Plate Runieth Over LITTERALLY!

As I do this update I have been at work 10 hrs straight, yes I am tired but it's just been bugging me to update-- well overdue...life in My Lane has been to say the least interesting....Let's see school work school work....and everything in between I may no have children, but geeze at least this crazy whirlwind I'm in would make sense if I did and Daddy don't get excited at the mention of them (kids) that part of my life is gonna be on hold for a while...a LONG WHILE!








Anyways since I'm back tracking there had been Collegiate D.E.C.A. Conference, midterms and Halloween is tomorrow ....I was gonna go as a black cat but last minute I think I'll be my alter ego I wont have to worry about changing my makeup only my clothes for work.....SOUNDS LIKE A WINNER TO ME!!!  I'll post pix of that later....


I'm sure I'm missing something ...I am I've gone from Lead to Key holder at work ....I'm just about there the juggling the key holder duties and sales associate duties....it took me a minute, but I've just about gotten it down pat.



 In the mean time I've fallen in love with these two...don't judge me....lol

Road of Advancement: Progress

  Life in My Lane has been on a constant go since I last talked to you lets see I work work work a lot all the time.  I have started being more social not overly but you know that break that EVERY successful person interviews about making sure you take---well that type of social . I have a life now yah!

   Anyways in regards to my goals and aspirations the reason I even started this blog I've been working on them in fact I made a big step in the process...I got a promotion it's not the biggie yet, but its a big deal because I'm in training for the biggie. So when the time comes and everything goes well I am owning it speak and it shall be--after finishing up school which will start back in the fall it's going to take all I have, but I have it to give ...I will be moving to  who knows not even me not yet anyway....I am happy and excited and had to make sure it was going to happen before I said anything bout it.  I'm pushing myself  more then ever --oh I so had to stop taking those vitamins---they were draining all of my energy I guess I was getting to much of the good stuff...





  So now that was like the BIGGEST BIRTHDAY PRESENT EVER because I found all of this out 4 days before my birthday.....and at work I work with the best team every...they surprised me with a mani and pedi treat! On top of that everyone is really helping me out--I would give shout outs  ,but I don't think they would approve.

***CAN ANYONE NOT CLOSE TO ME GUESS MY AGE!!!!





     I did attempt to go somewhere for my birthday, in the end I just went home and relaxed I was by myself so I just was not in the partying mood though I did enjoy myself and because I did work for my birthday this is what I wore........the legs are huge but I love it like it was cut just for me.....I'm still waiting for my dad to give me my birthday visit can't wait I miss him muy muy mucho!!!




      I'm sure something else happened other then what I wrote about, but I have drawn  a  blank. Let's see words of wisdom no matter how much you keep getting knocked on your tush never stay there never give up I'm a poster child for that. The closer you get to your blessing the more you will be challenged. Go for what you know give it your all and  you will see great things...I've been knocked down more then a few times but, I'm on a mission that will prevail......And that's my Word!!!!

Fabolous In Swim....

   This one has been a lonnggg time coming I've just been really busy and working overtime back breaking seriously.  A few post back I put up something on choosing a swimsuit it was between 2 awesome suits then I saw this.

                                            ***I FELL IN LOVE***













     Don't mistake me I love red its so my color and I love pushing edges in references to the suits I was looking at first.  MonifC Swimwear     I had my eyes on the high waist 2  piece and that fiery red number .  In the end it was the uniqueness of the design in this suit that won me over.....





This is the part where I'm suppose to rave about how it's alright for us plus sized  women to flaunt our stuff be bold and wear what we want...well for the sake of FASHION I will say go for it. BUT for the sake of STYLE I will say every style suit is not for everyone wear what compliments you....that what took me so long finding a suit.  There is a suit for every body type big or small you just have to find what SPEAKS TO YOU!!!


    IF YOU KNOW OF ANY AWESOME SITES WITH SWIMWEAR FOR THE PLUS SIZE PERSUASION FEEL FREE TO POST THEM....BUT SURE TO CHECK OUT MY FAV LINKS JUST CLICK THE TAB .....SMOOCHIE!!!

Clicking Heels...Beauty In All Colors.....




Me lately
So lately I’ve been coming across a lot of rant about discrimination because of the color of your skin some things I read hear and see says I get hate because I’m too light skinned the others on the complete opposite end of the spectrum say they get hate because they are to dark.  So I’ll say this what about us  Black Americans or for those that prefer it African Americans who are right smack in the middle like myself—I say to those on the other color spectrum suck it up get over it and don’t poison our new generations minds with the hate that not just other races may have but the obvious racism that our very own have toward each other.  We the middle medium of brown /red/yellow skin tones catch hate from both sides, but you never hear us complaining.



My Beautiful coco cousin (LeRhonda)
My Beautiful yellow best friend-she thinks shes brown








 We are all beautiful –black is beautiful –just as every color is. Have you ever seen a rainbow it is one of God’s most magnificent creations of nature as are we all.
Middle Ground Caramel/brown/yellow/red...
 We are like a great collection of shoes.  We all are of different colors mixes heights widths and styles but at the end of the day the collection is still fierce especially as a group/people.  The collection is only as strong as its weakest link <-- as clichés  as that is, but its true as a people we need to get past skin color because we have bigger issues as a people and as a nation—national dept anyone.



 We need to uplift each other and stop being like crabs in a bucket.  Our world has progressed to much to let that slave mentality continue to rule who we are as a people.  Don’t mistake we must not forget the past or we are bound to repeat it but we must use it to make ourselves strong before it’s too late.


 Food for thought














History is written, but it’s up to “US” to write a new chapter and to not keep repeating the  1st and 2nd chapters over and over there is no new history unless we change it….it’s like knowing your favorite pair of heels are worn out and it being time to replace them it only make your wardrobe that much better. Besides the initial draw  may be outward beauty, but in the end its your personality, character and drive is what keeps you not your looks.....THAT FADES!

And that's My Word..!!

Secret Pleasures...Is it superficial or not?






I know this is kind of touchy,but it's what I'm thinking and so totally relevant to my journey....
Virginal yet seductive -photo: c.russell

Enhance by makeup not covered what they think we hear

Be Seen and not heard





Butt lift...I so am not this endowed
Makeup as a mask
As little girls we are taught in so many ways that are not necessarily spoken, but subliminally to be seen and not heard, be sexy yet virginal and my favorite you are only as strong as your most commanding silent yet demanding sweet , innocent and seductive glance <<< I've mastered this f.y.i.>>>>
As a result we emerge our self in paint to make ourselves beautiful ,because you see most are not taught the paint is only suppose to enhance the natural beauty not cover it up, we overspend even if we can't afford the clothes, makeup , accessories<<>>>>> my secret pleasure. Let's not forget botox, face lifts, lip implants, breast implants, butt lifts, liposuction and the list goes on. As a result all of this is thrown at us in piles upon piles in popular culture. These things are thrown to us so much that they are not longer viewed as luxuries, but as necessities. Then "WE" are viewed as superficial by the same people that feed the indulgences to us.  All we have to do is ask for and I bet you a million + there is someone that can make our dream(s) come true.

Barbie Beauty --a Face Full
What we end up over sexed and accessorized...unless stated otherwise all professional pix in this post were taken by Anomaly13
Now the question remains is it as superficial as some people would have us all believe? Or is it just part of our evolved culture that is what we now deem as acceptable to everyone, but those of us that are stuck in the ice age. Those that have not figured out how to teach our younger generation how to interpret these messages and to take them as what they are worth as the saying goes, "it is what it is".  I mean think about it like this as bad off as our economy is now, if there where not those people that indulged in these so call necessities how much worse would things really be?  I say to each his/her own.  Do what you are suppose to in teaching don't leave everything up to the educators-they don't get paid enough for that- and the rest will follow.


Do I think my world in a personal aspect is superficial not really...it's part of life things have changed a lot in the last 100 years...would I feel the same if I had a little girl probably so...like I said, teach and the rest will follow... your thoughts?
