It’s time for a warm weather giveaway! I’m super excited! Back in March, I met a fabulous NY based designer named Elissa French, at Dare2Be’s fashion show fundraiser for Hurricane Sandy victims. To help with raising funds, I sponsored the event with jewelry and gift cards from my shop. There were many other designers showcasing their work for the cause too. Backstage, Elissa and I bonded over our love of fashion, creativity and social media.

Styles P ft. Rashad – Favorite Drug

Love this song! It makes tons more sense now… Jay-Z is a Sagittarius.  I had no clue back then who she was talking about. #loveonthelow

Most people go on diets to lose weight and become healthier. On 4/30/13, my co-workers and I challenged ourselves to live in extreme poverty for one day. We mimicked the diet of 4.1 billion around the world. The diet was part of a fundraising activity to raise money to fight world hunger. The challenge details are explained in an earlier post here. $1.50 was collected from the entire office to buy breakfast & lunch/dinner for 70 people. That’s only a total of $105 for groceries.

We were all in charge of staying within the $1.50 budget for the day. See the menu and price per item below.

The Live Below the Line Menu

My toughest decision was deciding to splurge on the good coffee for $.28 vs. drink the crappy instant stuff for $.07. On a budget of $1.50, this choice can make the difference between an extra serving of grub. YIKES!

I love my morning cup of coffee so I choose the fresh brewed for $.28 and a piece of toast $.25 and 1 tbsp of peanut butter $.17. One meal down and already $.70 cents spent. Geeez!

One meal down – $.70
Breakfast – Coffee, toast w/ peanut butter

At 1:30pm, I was ready for lunch. I choose a cup of pasta $.54 and two spoonfuls of marinara sauce from the chili. Total so far $.70 + $.54= $1.24

Lunch: One cup of pasta with only marinara sauce to cut cost- $.54

I had funds left over for a snack. My snack of choice: 3 pretzels and 2 oreos to bring me to $1.50 on the nose.

Snack Attack – $.26

The moral of the challenge was to raise awareness and funds. I got a chance to experience how people throughout the world, eat off $1.50.  It’s terrifying! And even harder to do, even for one day! I was hungry again by 5 pm.  SMH In my case, I had the means to grab a bite.  Think about the people who can’t.  Do your part!  Donate!

Miguel feat. Kendrick Lamar – How Many Drinks?

Last weekend during the sleepover my home girl Ashley handed out little gifts to everyone.  She’s such a sweetheart and I loved the thought.  Who doesn’t love gifts? I received a few items one being C.O. Bigelow Lemon Lip Balm – No. 1421.

The Claim

Softens, soothes and cares for lips with Vitamin C-rich and super-nourishing Shea Butter. Formulated with a high concentration of lemon oil and extract (3.5%), this addictive Lemon Lip Balm is packed with vitamins and minerals, providing a major dose of Vitamin C. 100% natural lemon flavor provides a tangy burst, while ultra-moisturizing Shea butter (1%) nourishes and conditions lips. The creamy formula glides on smooth, leaving lips feeling soft and moisturized

The Ugly Truth

Honey this stuff is gold! Ashley, my lips say thank you! lol I wear a lot of lipsticks. After a few applications, lipsticks dry out my lips.   I’ve worn under my lipsticks and alone on days when I’m plain Jane.  It goes on like butter. I love the smell too! Smells like a Lemon-head candy and kind of taste like one too!  I’ve only worn C.O. Bigelow lemon lip balm for 7 days and my lips are kiss-ably soft!
