Last year I posted this post on Valentine’s allowing my readers to get a glimpse into me as a person. The response was well-received, so I decided to continue the tradition. Here are 14 things about me you might not know:
1. Out of everything I wear, a simple cotton, crew-neck tee and skinny jeans is my standard “uniform”. It serves as a blank canvas, which I can pile on accessories and still look chic.
2. I think it’s incredibly rude to comment negatively on other people’s food. If it’s not the type of food you would eat, keep quiet.
3. I have gotten {somewhat} better at trying to be a “morning person”. I am still not up for chatting, loud noises, and bright lights in the morning, but I’m not as grouchy.
4. My signature scent to wear is now Miss Dior Blooming Bouquet and Un Jardin Apres la Mousson by Hermes.
5. My dream destinations to travel are Paris, Rome, Mykonos, Milan, & Tokyo.
6. My perfect day would go something like this:
-Wake up (quietly) around 10am
-Meditate & journal thoughts
-Have breakfast with my husband
-Meet my masseuse for a deep tissue massage
-Grab sushi for lunch and and a froyo from Pinkberry for dessert
-Get lost for hours in a chic boutique or two
-End the evening with a dinner date out with my honey & friends
7. My favorite era for fashion was the 1970’s, hands down. The hair, clothes, and music were the absolute best!
8. My favorite musician on this earth is Alicia Keys. Her music has gotten me through some of the toughest times in my life. Not to mention we have the same birthday. 😉
9. I don’t like to engage in “small talk” or hear people talk for the sake of speaking. Sometimes silence is a good thing.
10. My favorite sport is basketball. I’ve been watching the NBA all of my life. I was fortunate enough to see all of the greats from the 80’s play their best ball ever.
11. I’ve adopted Pharrell’s song “Happy” as my 2014 anthem. I’m choosing happiness from here on out.
12. I have never seen snow until I moved to Atlanta. True story. I’m from Florida. What did you expect?
13. Not only am I a blogger, but I’m a web designer, part-time photographer, brand manager, marketing consultant, and social media specialist. I wear many hats.
14. Out of all of the jobs I have, the most rewarding one is being a wife. I am passionate about living a marriage the way God intended. I am still madly in love with my better half.
Chic’ Simplicity! Happy V-day Luv
@CR Heeeeey there! Thanks! 🙂
In regards to number 2, an acquaintance of mine tells his children, “Don’t yuck someone else’s yum.” I think it’s a good rule to live by.
