    Don’t Miss a Thing

    Meet Me On The Gram!

    • LoL I'm the freaking worst!!! With this posting haha but I'm here again!!! Soooooo let me tell you about how Sepia is a great look in Mexico City. It's a 2 story dual vibe restaurant. I would say downstairs is a bit more lively and upstairs is more sultry -- a good place to take a mistress or cop a feel because it's dark lol. Both levels are very intimate. The food tasted great before it even touched my lips. The presentation was great! I had a something similar to a caprese salad but with burrata and the shortrib... BOMB! We were well taken care of from the moment we walked in. You know I love exclusivity and to be pampered so this was a great choice. Also, chosen by the American Express Concierge... Cause you know we fancy and shii. Anyway. Because this was a special occasion they gifted us a couple of bottles of wine, which was so sweet We also ordered a few more bottles of wine from their amazing wine selection. ( We were a group of 10 before you start calling us alcholoics). We had white, red, and rosé 🌹. Before our glasses tried to look empty they were refilled. They really know how to treat their guests. Someone in our group had a bitnof a mishap and they were so gracious and patient. Nothing they did went unnoticed. Make sure you make a reservation and let them know if you are having a special occasion because they will absolutely accommodate you. Loved @sepiacocinademar, highly recommend, and will absolutely be back.
    • So Mexico City was a freaking blast!! Everyone seems to think that you are going to get snatched by the cartel or something. But every time we did something my friend asked, the whole theme over the weekend, "do you feel unsafe" 😛 as we were at a castle or walking down the tree lined streets, or eating dinner in a beautiful restaurant, or at super hip mercados. The first time i went to mexico i went by myself. The second -- this time -- i went with a group. Stayed in hotels both times. I didnt not feel unsafe the entire weekend. Even when it seemd like we wondered into a graffiti wall filled area. I was out until 4 am went places by myself and didnt tell the Embassy where I was lol I just want everyone to understand that things CAN happen everywhere but it doesnt mean they will. I currently reside in houston texas where the deaths by gun violence equate to that of the entire country of Ecuador. 😒 When you travel be smart do some research and just enjoy yourself. Mexico City has soooo much to offer and it would be a shame if you missed out on this city or others because fear keeps you still. Ill have a blog post soon ish lol but ill be posting pictures of my trip this week. . . . . . . #theluxreview #MexicoCity #doyoufeelunsafe #weworktotravel #melaninmajority #travelblog #blackexcellence #travelblogger #nomadnesstribe #sistersandsuitcases #blacktravelmovement #blackgirltravelmovement #blackandfly #Workhardtravelwell #travelnoire #theblacktravelclub #theblacktourist #blacktravelgram #blackgirlswhoblog #browngirlbloggers #blackbloggersunited #blackgirlbloggers #traveled #travelled #travelingstuff #travelingworld #travelingislife #travelingsoul #travelpicsdaily #travelingfoodie
    • Sooooooo I went to visit my grandma who lives 2 hours south of chicago. It used to be an old air force base but now she's surrounded by corn and soybeans fields. Good news is that I could have tacos and a edamame whenever I want lol. I'm joking, I don't eat Mexican food north of Dallas. Anyway, Chicago knew I was coming, because there's no other reason to be in Illinois right? They asked me to help decorate the tree. Clearly I could only get to the short branches. (I'm obviously joking - I feel like I have to say that lol) I have no story lol I just wanted to show you how cute I look. I almost fell in the tree taking this picture. But look what I found! Pictures of baby me 21 year old grandma, sexy swimsuit grandma with my 5 year old uncle,and high school senior mommy and prom mommy! LoL her dad actually had to pay her to go to prom; that's why she's smiling so hard. She didn't want to go. Hahahha I love the late 40s and early 50s! So pretty! Oh and I also wanted to quickly shoutout National Car Rental for making the rental car process crazy easy and letting me pick out my car. I chose the brand new Nissan maxima and let me tell you! If you are looking for a new car that is It! I like to sit up high in an SUV but that sexy little thing was making me rethink the Mercedes truck! . . . . . #deckthehalls #chicago #windycity #treedecorating #itsthemostwonderfultimeoftheyear #itwasunusuallywarm #imgladididntfall #travelisthenewclub #tograndmothershousewego #nationalcarrental #nissanmaxima #ilovechristmaslights #holidaycheer #millenniumpark #babyme #nostalgia #ilovethe40sand50s #youngmommy #ilovemymommy #photoalbumsarefun
    • This Chicago winter daylight is perfect for selfies! Roaming around Chicago is one of my favorite things to do no matter the season. It's crazy how warm it is. I didn't even need a coat. . . . . . . . #Chicago #windycity #selfiegamestrong #explorethecity #onthewaytogirodanos #chicagopizza #itwassogood #selfiegame #favoritecity #inamerica
    • Shout out to the @wlakeshore @whotels for making my Chicago stay amazing. The W Lakeshore, in my opionion, is in the absolute best location. It is right on the lake, is right next to @navypierchicago, and has views for days. The Hancock building is super close and walkable and if you walk to @millennium_park you really get to see what the city looks like. If you know me or have read any of my blogs you know part of my hotel choosing criterion is whether the hotel has a robe waiting for me or not...and they did haha. I loved everything about my room and the lobby/restaurant decor. The check in and check out process was also very quick and easy. Chicago is one of my favorite cities because it has great food, great history, it is beautiful, and there is so much to do. . . . . . . . #whotel #whotels #wlakeshore #thebean #millenniumpark #windycity #travelisthenewblack #travelisthenewclub #theluxreview #travelchick #ghirardelli #remingtons #giordanospizza #ilovechicago #hancocktower #navypierchicago #navypier
    • Like i said earlier today, two weekends ago I had the pleasure of attending the Global Power Tour in Houston. I initially thought it was a womens empowerment event but it so wasn't, which was great. I am a self motivated individual and the last thing I need is to pay for an event full of cheerleaders saying "you can do it" haha. So what is the Global Power Tour? It is an event for business women wanting to get actionable steps to grow their business. The event is hosted by Kristi Jackson of @womenceoproject. She is young and thriving and has 14 years of business experience between 2 industries. As someone who invests in herself and her business on a regular I definitely recommend, if you are serious about your business, you either hire her as a business coach or follow her on instagram to soak up her knowledge. She has a ton of courses you can take if coaching is out of your budget but like she said pay for it with a bag, shoes, or sell your car lol. If you really want to change your life you will do what is necessary to get there. The main point is to act. Done is better than perfect people. The Global Power Tour is happening in 2018 as well and you'll want to find out if she is coming to your city. I purchased the VIP ticket and it was so worth it. Again, being around like minded women who are serious about their businesses and all moving in the same direction is invaluable. Honestly, that was one of my goals for this year. I accomplished it with GPT. I met some great women who I can definitely see myself working with in the future. I met people I can build with, which is amazing because if you arent building what are you doing? lol I just wanted to share with you why Kristi is someone you want to know. Another reason I like Kristi is that she is an implementer. Having ideas is great but to make money you need to make moves. And she is Fancy AF and I love it! . . . . . #womenentrepreneurship #womeninbusiness #womenceoproject #globalpowertourhouston #globalpowertour #growyourbusiness #growyournetwork #growtogether #buildingbusiness #goals #buildyourbusiness #girlbosses #ladypreneurs #internationalentrepreneur #juststart #2017isntoveryet
