Motivational Monday:

In thinking about my personal growth I began to view times in my life that I feel I have grown steadily as both a person and artist. When you feel your best dont you feel you can conquer the world? Take a moment to think about a time when you felt you were at your best. Once you have that thought remember what were some of the things that made you feel that way? Once you think of those things which more than likely were a certain habit you can start to duplicate those habits helpful to feeling at your best more consistently. In my remembrance of my best I realized the habit that helped me to feel on top of the world was staying organized. I notice a huge difference in my day and productivity when I'm organized. In order to feel this way and be at my best consistently I have now made it a point to organize my day, to do list, clothing options the night before. The improvement is extraordinary!
Try this simple exercise to get back to being at your best consistently! Be sure to let me know how this post has helped you!

My Vintage look make up rundown!

Just came back from DC and I've received a few messages about what make up I use especially as a dancer so I look the same when I start the night as I do when I'm ending it! I'll be the first to tell you I sweat and when I dance I leave my soul on the floor! Probably why I sweat bc it's a lot of work! You'd be surprised that some of the things I use consistently and love so much are brands you can pick up from your neighborhood drugstore!

Foundation:
-Loreal True Match liquid foundation W7
-Concealer & Highlighter: Elf
-Eye shawdow: Fergie Center Stage "Dutchess Lounge" Wet n Wild
-Eyeliner(Water line): Cover girl perfect point plus in "onyx"
-Eyeliner (lid): Infallible super slim liner
-Eyelashes: Cherry Blossom 113
-lips: Elizabeth Arden
Mist n Setting spray by Elf


Hope this helps everyone! It doesn't take an expensive makeup to stay on all night for dancers or fab ladies in general! XoMB

Takeover Tuesday: My Tips for a Resume that will WOW!

Hey Fam!  I have brought Takeover Tuesday back on my blog after receiving many questions from you all about different areas of business, beauty, and fitness! 



Q: MB, you have a unique career and I'm a stylist looking to apply for work; since I don't have a stuffy career I don't want a stuffy resume or should I stick to the basics regardless? Help!

Shanek, Washington DC

1. Turn Stiff into Creative: Just because this is a resume doesn't mean it cant have personality.  In fact, without your personality what makes your paper different from another qualified candidate.  Be sure to come across very professional but make sure your resume reads friendly and knowledgeable.

2.  Classic Font never goes out of style:  There are certain things that should remain constant on a resume and that includes not having a flashy font that's not readable.  Georgia or Times New Roman are best and between 10-12 size work well.  The only time I say to veer away from this is if your position is in the field of graphic artist or similar.  At that point you could push the envelope a little more. At the end of the day whether its a manager, owner, or HR representative looking at your resume they are looking for the facts!

3.  Relevancy wins every time:  Make sure that the first things your potential employer sees is going to be what is relevant in building value for your position within their company then follow that with other pertinent information.  Realistically as an employer we look to scan a resume 10-15 seconds for information we see valuable it would be ideal if those things weren't at the bottom of the page.

I wish you and the rest of my readers good luck on your current and future job hunts!  xoMB

Fashion Friday: 2013 Spring Trends I love!

Bermuda Shorts!!!  Such a great short to have for day and night looks!
 
Stripes the new polka dots? Well nothing can replace my signature but this trend will give us another staple pattern to work with.
 
For those that have ever felt torn about wearing leather too early or too late in the season the trend is coming back in full force! Even the men are breaking out with leather trends on their jacket sleeves,   t-shirts, and more!
 
Def one of my faves this far! Sport dresses will give every woman tomgirl or fashionista a great reason to let the legs be front and center this spring!
 
 
 
Black & White! Can't escape the classics!

My Grammy Faves!

There are so many mixed reviews about the grammy fashion this year but being a woman that doesnt stay in a box helps me to keep a creative point of view when it comes to the A-listers that seem to dissapoint everyone else! Heres to the creative, the boobs, the legs, the sheer, and the Beyonce ;)!

My new closet room!

I'm having a blast turning my spare room into a closet boudoir! I started by purchasing all the racks and holders I would need for my extra clothes( I also have a full closet in the room as well) so this is an under construction picture and I will update it as I start adding more decorative touches! I really want to get artsy and include many DIY projects! Should be fun!
