Welcome to the new month! Well the new month literally started two days ago, but this is my first blog post for the month so excuse me if I say, Welcome.
Christmas is only 22 days away and I can hardly wait. This is not because I'm really excited about christmas; I'm so excited about the new year, 2013. :D. According to some very interesting people, the world should end this year on the 21st of December so there might be no Christmas or New year. :( LOL what a joke *rolling my eyes*.
Anyways, if there's anything you planned to do this year and haven't done yet there's till time to do it. As the saying goes, it's better late than never. So make the best of these few days.
Have a wonderful day.
Xoxo

Scott Disick
Scott Disick, (oh excuse me, Lord Scott Disick) is Kourtney Kardashian's boyfriend and the father of her two children) Scott, a regular on the Kardashian's reality shows - Keeping up with the Kardashians and Kourtney and Kim take New York - has become quite popular for his mode of dressing. Scott's style is the dapper - gentleman look. He's not afraid to try different colors and fabrics. He wears his clothes well. Bravo! Scott, your style is epic. Frankly, he is one of the best dressed males in Hollywood. Few men can pull of outfits the way Scott does. He's definitely on his game.
Quote
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"

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) :)

Here's what Taylor Swift wore to the MTV European Music Awards that was held in Germany on Sunday, November 11th 2012. She won the awards for Best Female, Best Live and Best Look.

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.

Breast Cancer Awareness Month
Ladies, where's your pink? This is breast cancer awareness month and you cannot afford to be ignorant. A lot of women have lost their lives to this tumor. This year a story circulated about a 16 year old who died as a result of breast cancer. Stand up against breast cancer. Encourage women around you to get a breast cancer test done. The earlier the tumor is detected, the earlier the tumor can be removed. Preach! Preach! Preach it! Help save a life. Here's A Breast Cancer Story

Well before reading this article, I knew very little about cultural appropriation. It only took me five minutes to read it and after reading it I can say that I'm now more informed. check out the article Cultural Appropriation.
Rihanna's New Album Cover
In an older post, I raved about Rihanna's new single, Diamonds, from her latest album. At that time the name of the album was unknown. Well, today Rihanna released the album title and album cover via twitter. The title of the album is Unapologetic and this is the album cover.
Celebrity Fragrances
Rihanna recently announced that she will be releasing a perfume, Nude before the end of this year. A few months ago, Nicki Minaj also released her fragrance Pink Friday. They are not the first celebrities to release their own perfumes. Will you buy their perfumes because they smell good or because they are celebrity fragrances?
