Things That Make Me Go Ooh La La: June 18-23 2012

Feeling Hot Hot Hot! Yes ya'll it was a steaming hot week literally. Officially NYC had a heat wave and surely the summer fashionistas came out in full force. Summer is my favorite season because I really get to flex my fashion muscles with lovely footwear, accessories, and beautiful dresses. I'm such a girly girl! This week I was able to attend the HBA EXPO 2012 at Jacob Javits Center so look out for a recap on The Style and Beauty Doctor, I will also feature some of the up and coming exhibitors that I met here on miss merli in nyc as well as post photos on my Facebook page. I also attended Karen of Karen's Body Beautiful and Myliek of Curlbox meet and greet, where I got to meet up with Tia Williams of Shake That Beauty  As always you know how much I get photo happy when I'm out and about so sit back and enjoy what Merli saw in NYC this week.

Sunday Styles: Houndstooth Dress

Hello Beautiful People,

So church is no different of course I'm conscious of the things I wear so I wanted to share with you my choices that  I make and how I supplement sometimes too short situations. Check it out.

Things That Make Me Go Ooh La La: March 19-24, 2012

Hey Beautiful People,

     What a week it was with my new job I was on a search for comfortable shoes and came across some that really made my tongue wag. My place of choice was the 34th Street DSW, as I had some certificates and my birthday coupon to utilize. Any reason to get something new is always fun for me *wink*. I also had the privilege as one of my responsibilities to pick out paint colors for the new program at Brooklyn Children's Center. I'm also searching for furniture, games, books and everything to make sure that the Youth Resource Center is everything that a young person can dream up. I'll probably put out an SOS for donations for books and xbox 360 games for the youth. This is going to be just the beginning this is what the youth need, I can't wait for it to be open.

So while I was on my blogging hiatus I did the makeup and styling for my off and on again employer Bebe I was excited to be able to flex my fashion chops once again since there aren’t much fashion opportunities in social work. Any who please enjoy the following photos and a big thank you to the photographer who took amazing photos and didn’t photo shop the heck out of them. Enjoy!
