Introducing Footzyrolls!

Back in June, I made a promise to myself.

Start wearing heels occasionally!

I'm now in my late 20's. I don't look it, I know. 

I don't wear heels at all. My shoe collection is insane!

Wedges, platforms and pumps. You name it I have it.

My biggest issue is my low pain tolerance. Don't laugh! I can't handle the hassle of breaking in a new pair of shoes. I don't do blisters at all!

Thankfully, I was given the opportunity to try out a pair of footzyrolls.

The innovative shoe brand, Footzyfolds, makes traveling in style easier with their lightweight, foldable and rollable shoes & accessories.

 I know some of you out there are wondering how does foldable flats help me with my heel situation. These can easily be folded into my purse or tucked into my desk at work!

Each shoe comes with a gorgeous box or our new cylinder packaging, your Footzyrolls, a beautiful shoe bag for your heels, and a cute drawstring pouch to put your stylish Footzyrolls into when you need to put them in your small bag.

Basically, I don't have to leave home without them. I decided to go with the leopard loafers because I love animal print. This particular shoe can be found in the sale section.

The shoe sizes start at 4.5 and go up to 11.5:

Extra Small fits a woman's US Shoe size 4.5-5.5
Small size fits a woman's US shoe size 6 to 7
Medium size fits a woman's US shoe size 7.5 to 8.5
Large size fits a US woman's shoe size 9 to 10
Extra Large is a 10.5-11.5

 Footzyfold collections are currently sold in major department stores such as Macys, Bloomingdales, and Lord & Taylor, as well as over 3000 other retail stores. Canadians can order it directly from their website.

Hair talk: Textures & Extensions

I am so surprised how popular my hair posts are. I was very iffy about talking about weaves/extensions it at first. Now that I have stated my concerns, I'm willing to share more. I have been getting a lot of emails & blog comments for more topics to be covered such as textures & over all general care.

In this post I am going to address texture. Texture is one of the most important things to think about when picking out extensions. I haven't "permed" my hair in two years and my current texture is curly. It wouldn't make sense for me to go out and  buy bone straight extensions to blend with my hair because the textures would be completely off.I could straighten my hair to blend but I do not want heat damage.

Regardless of length, I try to make ALL my extensions/weaves look natural. I decided to ask Constance from Bella Dream Hair some tips on picking the perfect extensions for first-time wearers.

 I think the biggest mistake women make is looking at an image and saying that THAT is what I want without taking into consideration their hair texture. If you see a woman with silky straight curls and you want that style but your hair is not silky in the least...then you ma'am should not pick that hair texture. Find a texture that matches your hair rather it's natural, relaxed or permed. Work with what you got so that your weaves will be flawless. 

As basic as that information is, I still see styles which totally perplex me! I know I'm not alone with that feeling...haha.

Overall, the versatility of extension can change up your looks in seconds. 

Monica is my favorite example of that because she can rock short and long styles naturally.

I hope you all enjoyed this post.

Eylure Lashes- Up Close & Personal

I have a confession... I am a lash junkie. My obsession is a little different than others because I collect them. The funniest part of my obsession is the fact that I don't wear them! I can put them on others perfectly but not myself. I told myself this year that one of my goals will be taking the time out and having patience to put them on-without getting frustrated!

Thankfully Eylure has added four brand new Naturalites style additions to their line. 

These lashes are very natural looking and perfect for every occasion. 
I took close-up HD pictures for you all to see if these lashes are for you.

Feel free to click them to see them in their original size

The 011s, 032s, 035s and 083s are variations on current popular Eylure varieties 

and compliment both day or night looks.

Eylure Naturalites 011 Lashes are sweet and romantic, full lashes without fuss.
These are my faves! I love how it goes short to longer on the edges. 

Eylure Naturalites 035 Lashes add natural volume for a subtly full look.

Eylure Naturalites 083 Lashes adds fullness and length to lashes.

Eylure Naturalites 082 Lashes is a superfine lash one of the most natural looking.

They also debuted two new styles in the Katy Perry Lashes collection.
