Living in Brooklyn has been very fun thus far. Little by little I've been exploring this city; hitting great bars, great restaurants, cool artsy events... Not gonna lie, I've enjoyed every minute of it! I've started packing my camera with me when I go out to document these cool outings so I can post pictures for you to see!

The Barclays Center

is only a 15 minute drive from my apartment, and most of my friends live in Brooklyn too! I'm reeeeallllyyyy trying to see Kanye at Barclays this fall (and Beyonce, again). #butiaintgotnomoney #canienteracontest #isanyonedoingagiveaway

Minus my lack of funds, I still feel extremely humbled in my first month and some change of this independency! Lord knows it ain't easy! *sobs over low funds in bank account* LOL I'm dramatic yes, but I really did have to stop myself from buying these cute pair of boots the other day because I have to be a responsible adult and pay my bills on time! #honesty Mom, seeee, I can say no! lol

Let's talk about this necklace. If you don't know, turquoise is my favorite stone. I have many turquoise rings, and necklaces, it's a beautiful stone, and it looks great on everyone. I can't remember where I picked up this statement necklace years ago, but it's one of my favorite pieces, and always a conversation starter! Take a simple outfit (like the one I'm wearing in this post), and throw on that bad boy, and it takes it to the next level! 

Can I just mention that I'm still in love with my haircut?! Although it's growing back! Starting to get a little cushion again haha! 

Can't believe fall weather has already kicked in. Although I am excited to layer up and wear oversized sweaters and boots and scarves! My favorite season! And a pumpkin spice latte never hurt either!

Heading to a natural hair brunch event hosted by my lovely friend

Happy Saturday!

Long story short, I found an apartment, moved to the city, and 5 days later landed a job. It's been truly a blessing! I was hustling y'all! For real!

Since moving here, I've been to a lot of cool events around the city: concerts/shows, art events, meeting/networking with new people- coming out of my shell! And the best part has been meeting followers of my blog! Hi guys!! :)

Shot these photos the other day in Soho. I love the towny feel with the cobblestone roads, and it's an escape from all the massive sky scraper buildings. And there's so many cute boutiques to

window

shop in! lol

I just thank God for making a way for me moving to NYC. I am so grateful and really on my grind here. I moved out here to make connections and start my music career, and that is exactly what I'm doing! Can't wait for you to hear some tunes!

How are you guys? I will mention that from now on my blog posts will be consistent, this post serves as a re-launch if you will! I'm excited for this blog moving forward, and I hope you are too! Drop me a line, let me know how you're doing!
