No Dull Moments

The past two weeks have been hectic. I haven't been managing my time properly and work has been consuming most of my personal life. But last Sunday, I experienced something so surreal. 

I had the pleasure of working with luxury accessory designer Laurel De Witt and celebrity socialite Legendary Damon. Damon's Lux Ball/Birthday Celebration Extravaganza was highly anticipated and majorly exclusive for the elite.

The team and I completed wardrobe looks with metal plaited arm and neck pieces, over sized body chains/shackles and enormous head crowns linked to chain tassels and metal coins all from Laurel De Witt's newest collection.  When styling loud statement pieces such as Laurel's it is always best to dress the look as simple but daring at the same time. It's quite easy to ruin an outfit like this just by outfit collision. What's outfit collision? Outfit collision is the cause of pairing two loud pieces together creating a fatal clash, committing wardrobe suicide. 

However, we decided to pair Laurel's accessories with slim fitting lace dresses, delicate lace two piece crops with matching bottoms, silk V line dresses, and floor length tutu skirts. The models wore smoky eyeshadow overtop of their eyes, balanced out with nude and pastel lip colors. Their ponytails were snatched high and long. Some wore dramatic crimp waves, and soft dramatic curls as well. 

If I Was Your Best Friend

I've never had the type of personality to use others. I never thought it was necessary to use someone to get something that I wanted. I've always had a stickler, go getter personality. Even as a child, I remember knowing what I wanted and going after it, but it was always genuine and kindhearted. I could never understand how people would use each other by pretending to care. If I dislike someone, it's probably because I dislike their ways. I have the ability to read personalities and once I see someone's true colors my mind is then set. 

I simply love working as a team in any form of group setting. I can appreciate the connections, the team effort, and the ability to share ideas. But, I am not capable of stealing someone else's idea and running with it as if it was my own. I do believe ideas are created from other ideas, that is why I enjoy working in group settings. When working in these specific settings the relationships should be built of trust. All relationships should be built of trust, not just personal relationship but, friendships and "business-ships" as well. 

Do you think it's possible to make it in this "dog eat dog world" without using others for your personal success? How do you continue to build your net worth without loosing your integrity? 

It Cost Me A Lot! ! !

Why is it is so easy to loose focus on the things that matter? It's so challenging to go after the things we want from life but, it so easy to give up and let go. Would you consider letting go a form of quitting? Maybe, depending on the situation. I would never consider myself a quitter, I have to much pride for that. Although, I am the type of women that will no longer do things because I just don't want to. Should I still be labeled a quitter because of that?

I absolutely despise this statement "in order to get where you want to be, you have to do things you don't want to do". But, why is it that I should have to suffer in uncomfortable situations in order to be successful in life. If there is something that I don't like, I'm changing it. If I'm around someone I don't like, I'm leaving them. If I'm working at a place I no longer want to, I'm quitting simple as that. 

Should I be punished for my actions because of this? Am I trying to alter my road to success? Or am I just impatient and think things should go how I want them to? 

Honestly, am I really the only person that feels this way?
