I'd like to thank the Academy...

Sugar Honey Iced Tea ya'll...I've been given a Brilliante Blogger Award by the lovely Jaimie from Just Kiss 'N Makeup.

Thank you dearest! She called me classy!! I love that! I remember at a job interview last year the interviewer asked me "Are you sure you're only 19? You're so eloquent" and not too long ago my supervisor described me as elegant...so top that off with classy I'm following in the footsteps of my idol- Audrey Hepburn! A black Audrey Hepburn...can you imagine???

ok maybe not so much...hehe

but I'd like to thank Jaimie again, it means a lot (and I now know I'm not talking to myself out there...someone's reading hehe). But now the real task begins...I must give this out to 7 other wonderful people. This is mucho tough since I'm addicted to a gazillion blogs out there and picking 7 is like telling Carrie Bradshaw she must only commit to seven pairs of shoes for the rest of her life!! (so dramatic, non?) HA!

So here I go...

Popularly Unpopular: my online friend, Knikki. One of the first bloggers I wish I met/knew in person. Seriously down to earth and her blog isn't merely fashion-it's life in general which I like. There are funny posts, rants, and things to make you think. Not to mention I'm jealous that she has a man hahahaa...

Clumps of Mascara: Now I know you got a TON of these but that just goes to show how wonderful of a blog you have there. Not a day goes by where I don't go on ya site to see what mascara you're recommending, seeing what product is great for women of color, and what eyeshadow ya rockin'! Reading Clumps Of Mascara isn't like reading a blog where the blogger is writing off of a press release. It's like talking to one of your friends and when those videos come around I'm TUNED IN!!! Down to earth, friendly, great recommendations..I could go on forever! Simply put...I'm addicted to this site.

Entregáo a la Salsa: I'm not only addicted to fashion and beauty but to learning about other cultures as well. So whenever I need a break from all the eyeshadow and the stacked heels, I go on over to my friend's blog and read about the life of a salsa dancer. It's cool seeing how passionate someone can be about something. Makes me wanna dance (although my salsa isn't really salsa...I just sway y hips and act like I know what I'm doing...FAKE IT TILL YOU MAKE IT DARLINGS!)

Beauty Blogging Junkie: simply amazing. It took me a while to try to decipher some of her posts as she shortens words (delish= delicious, phenom= phenomenal, totes= totally) but reading her blog is like talking to a girlfriend (just like Clumps). I really have to tune in everyday or my day isn't complete...

Spoiled Pretty: ahh Daneen (I say her nme like I know her personally...HA!) but I am in lurvvv with this blog and am sooooo happy I found it! funny, chill, reasonable...not to mention I won a Victoria's Secret PINK hoodie from one of her contest and can't wait till I get it 'cuz if you've been reading this blog long enough you'll know of my chronic obsession with VS. If this blog were to sudden;y disappear of the face of this earth, I'd probably cry...pathetic, I know

I Am Fashion so I was heavily addicted to this blog wayy before I started my own fashion blog. I actually agree with some of the posts...and they live overseas..I'm a sucker for Europeans.


The 16 Diaries: have you ever met someone younger than you yet they speak so eloquently and their posts are intellectually stimulating and they kinda make you feel crappy about your posts. This is that person. Why am I giving her award, then? Because her posts are so intellectually stimulating and the pictures are stunning! Another one of my early blog friends, I'm a tad bit obsessed with The 16 Diaries...
