Appreciating someone else's beauty is not a bad thing. Rather it shows that you are also beautiful inside. I don't know why certain people find it hard to give out compliments to others. Saying "nice shoes" or "I love your weave" or "those Louis Vouittons you've got on are beautiful" or "i like the way you speak' isn't so hard. Try as much as possible to compliment others. It is a positive thing to do. and as Kimora Lee Simmons says "it takes great beauty in one's self to recognize the beauty in another"

Diamonds (Official video)

Spider Woman

Emma Stone has had it good for her this year. Starring in block buster movies such as The Help and The Amazing Spider Man is a HUGE deal. She also is in a sizzling romance with the charming Andrew Garfield, her co-star in The Amazing Spiderman She was recently listed among Vogue's most stylish women of the year 2012. I couldn't agree more. She graces the cover of Vogue's fall 2012 magazine. I followed the outfits she wore to the various premieres of the Amazing Spiderman which were absolutely gorgeous. Here's some of the outfits and her magazine cover photo. She truly is Spider Woman (not that there's a word like Spider Woman, but it's my blog so I'm allowed to use it) :)

Luther Vandross

I'm not sure how many of you are familiar with Luther Vandross. Luther Vandross was an Ameri can singer, song writer, and a producer.I remember when I was little, my aunt would put his song in the CD player, sit on the arm chair and sing along to his songs. Her favorite of his songs was Dance With My Father. I'm not sure what brought about this reminiscing but the tune of this song has been stuck in my head all day. Listen to it and enjoy.

Self Confidence - Appearance

Self confidence, according to Merriam Webster's Free Online Dictionary, is confidence in one's self, powers , and abilities. It is extremely important that a person be certain about his or herself. When you know who you are, no one can tell you otherwise.
  Researcher's have proven that a major way to boost your self confidence is by dressing well. In other words, appearance can make or break your self confidence.
  I remember a meeeting I once had, the meeting was a surprise and was also urgent so I barely had time to fuss about how I looked. I picked up clothes from my closet and dashed out of the house without bothering to check what I was wearing properly. Halfway to the meeting venue, I discovered that my top had a hole in it. I was devastated and alarmed but there was no time for me to return home and change. Luckily, I always keep a scarf in my bag. I brought out the scarf and strategically placed it in a way that would cover the hole. Through out the meeting, I was distracted and had little or no confidence. I kept feeling like my scarf would fall out of place and the hole in my cloth would show, and so I fidgeted. This brought down my confidence level and by the time the meeting finished I was relieved and also sad. I was sad because I was certain I hadn't handled that meeting like my usual self. Fortunately, I had managed to snag a second-chance-meeting.
You are more confident in yourself when you are certian you look good. Knowing that you look attractive and pleasant instantly makes you feel better about yourself and conduct yourself with more grace.
As important as appearance is to self confidence, it's also important that you do not forget that it is only a part of self confidence and that what really matters is what's on the inside of you.

Have fun and make more effort to look good.
