Thursday marked one week since I decided to go vegan. My decision was mainly sparked by a documentary I watched on Netflix, What the Health. There were many compelling studies and facts which concluded that plant based diets are the best for humans. There were a few in particular that resonated with me. I won’t get into them here as I would want you to watch and make your own decision. This documentary coupled with one I watched a few years ago, Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead, convinced me it was time to make a change.

This past weekend I went to brunch with two of my close friends, Nikki and Farrah, which to my surprise were both going vegan as well. I found out as we were discussing where to eat for brunch. We decided on by. Chloe, a vegan cafe with locations in Williamsburg and Manhattan.

We all decided on the pancakes with blackberries and I had a cherry lemonade. Let’s start with the lemonade it was delicious, just the right amount of tartness. I love a tart lemonade, and I never had cherry lemonade before but I figured it would be a bit tart as most cherry flavored things are tart. I’d definitely suggest it, if they have it when you go. The pancakes were a cornmeal type pancake so I had to get used to the texture. There was also corn pieces in the pancakes which I liked. I think they would have been better if I had eaten them hot but I ended up only eating half of the pancakes.

I think I had in mind a more traditional pancake that was vegan. I’m really big on texture and in the past week I realized it’s something I have to get over with my new dietary restrictions. Overall I loved the atmosphere and will definitely go back to try their other menu items for lunch or dinner. They also have vegan desserts so if for nothing else I’ll be back for those lol.

I’m wearing what I want when I want! Over the l I’m wearing what I want when I want!

Over the last 6 months or so I’ve been struggling with “What’s my style?” “Sporty” “sexy casual” “vintage”

I was trying to fit myself in a box. I was trying to dress how I thought I should. Today I declare: I WEAR WHAT I WANT WHEN I WANT!

If I want to dress like I’m 20 one day and an 80s mom the next I have the right to do so and so do you!!!

Don’t let anyone even yourself put you in a box especially when it comes to style.

What’s something you’ve been dying to try but it doesn’t fit your current style?

A great fragrance can change your whole mood. Lat A great fragrance can change your whole mood.

Lately I’ve been drawn to floral and citrus scents. I love notes of rose or peony.

And it’s definitely the finishing touch when I’m getting dressed. Whether I’m going out or just to my backyard 😂

What’s your favorite fragrance right now?

You ever look at a picture of yourself and say “ You ever look at a picture of yourself and say “That’s me? I did that!” This is that picture for me 😝

I’m a firm believer of hyping yourself up! So today I’m being my own hype woman....

“YESSS SIS”
“COME THROUGH SUN!”
“BISHHHH”

How are you hyping yourself up today?

And yes I’m going to wear this @hanifaofficial skirt til the wheels fall off! 😂
Shoutout to all my brow skin women whose top lip i Shoutout to all my brow skin women whose top lip is darker than their bottom lip. #thestruggleisreal 

This lip crayon from @trestique passed the test: will the pigmentation be enough for my top and bottom lip? The separate built in balm does something to activate even more pigmentation.

And who doesn’t live a good 2-in-1? This is also perfect because now my everyday gloss and balm don’t have to mix with my lipstick colors.

And on top of that I can bring one product with me versus 2 or 3. Y’all I’m one step closer to being able to carry a mini bag 😂

This is a reminder to get your vitamin levels chec This is a reminder to get your vitamin levels checked.

2 years ago I was diagnosed with Vitamin D Deficiency. I didn’t feel like myself for almost a year prior to getting diagnosed. So much so I actually thought I was depressed.

When I was diagnosed I found out my levels were at a 4 optimal is 30-50.

It’s more important than ever as low Vitamin D levels can weaken your immune system. And melanated folks are more likely to be deficient.

Melanin protects the skin against ultraviolet light. But by blocking the sun’s rays, melanin affects the skin’s ability to activate pre-vitamin D. So the darker the skin, the less vitamin D you produce.

Don’t forget the sunscreen! ☀️
