Finally Friday! Yippie!!

I had a tough week at work with lots of projects and tones of stress so I am glad it's Friday.
What are your plans for the weekend? I would like to spend the whole time in bed, relaxing and sleeping....
Here is my casual friday outfit. Have a faaaabulous weekend!!!

Waaw li thioup rek la ?!?!?

I had to show you this!! How gorgeous is she? Elle parle bien aussi...en tout cas she makes more sense que les autres candidates de Millenium Star (a TV show in Senegal).
Je suis tombee dessus completement par hasard - d'abord pour voir les tenues des candidates, mais surtout parce que Dakar me manque trop!! Ma candidate preferee est Adja (sur la pic ci-dessus). Je la trouve SU-PER-BE!! Joli teint, superbes tenues, tres stylee et surtout elle parle bien.
J'adore son thioup sur cette video. C'est bleu? gris? li lane la waye?
C'est ma mere qui va etre fatiguee puisqu'a chaque fois que je vois une tenue traditionnelle qui me plait, je la fatigue comme pas possible!! Maman - si tu me lis - voici ma prochaine victime! lol

You can watch her on the following two videos: (more videos on dailymotion - Enjoy!!)

Brontibay Paris

I was talking with my sis this weekend and she was raving about a brand of handbags called Brontibay. She loves them so much and says that their leather is amazingly soft! That was it for me! I have to admit that I am a handbag snob and will mostly look for the quality of the leather used. It can be distressed, smooth or texturized, but it absolutely has to be soft and thick. I am not sure if this makes sense {lol}, but this is how I like my handbags.
Anyways - As I was talking to her on the phone, I quickly went online to check out Brontibay's website. I found some very cute ones but since I am on a "no-handbags-buy", I will {try} to be strong and resist.
Here are my favorites:

Girl, you look FAB!!

Last night was the superbowl game between The Steelers and The Cardinals. Well, I don't usually watch football but will occasionnally when there is a fun game. My hubby on the other hand is a huge football fan...I watched last night's game (which was awesome by the way) just because my girl Jennifer Hudson was on. She sang incredibly well ......and her outfit...oh my!!!! Her outfit was off the hook!!! I just loved everything about it. Simple, young, sophisticated and absolutely fabulous!!!! The jacket was my favorite part and I spent the whole morning looking for it. Just to find out that it is an Alexander McQueen piece! Of course it is sooo out of my reach but I will HUNT it down in every possible sales!!! Or maybe find a good knock-off???
Here is a link to the jacket: (I could not find the one with gold buttons but I believe it is the same jacket) http://www.alexandermcqueen.com/us/en/shop/womenswear/autumn-winter-08/Collection-Looks/P-AW08_WW_Look8.aspx



Beyonce is wearing the same jacket here....



Girls, please, if any of you find this jacket anywhere on sale, holla @ me pliiiiiiz!!!!

Avocado Mask

I just tried a mask recommended by one of my indian friends and I have to say it feels great!
Ok...I just took it off and I hope I will not break out tomorrow morning but my skin feels very hydrated and rested. I will report more tomorrow...
Have you tried this mask? What are your favorite homemade masks?
I love homemade masks because they are cheap and "natural" most of the time, so let me know...

Here are the directions. All you need is honey and avocado:

1- Mash the avocado in a bowl, then stir in honey.
2- Apply to skin and leave for 10 minutes.
3- Rinse face with a cool washcloth.

Here is another recipe for an avocado mask I found on the net:
