By Melany on May 18, 2016 in Snarky

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of letgo for IZEA. All opinions are 100% mine. Well, we all have stuff and if you are like me then, we both have a lot of stuff. Some things seem like a good buy and then you get home and ask yourself “Self, do I really need 5 different colors of the same exact shirt or skirt or glasses?” Recently, I moved (again) and can’t believe how little time it takes to accumulate things that I just can’t use because I am only one person and don’t have enough… Continue Reading

Fashion Music Festivals Musts By ICJUK: Coachella, EDC and WMC

By Melany on April 7, 2016 in Goodies

Music festivals are my favorite! I love all types of festivals from rock to electronic. I used to attend the World Music Conference in Miami every year, rock EDC in Los Angeles and Las Vegas and Coachella of course. If you don’t know, Coachella is right around the corner. Preparing for a music festival means your fashion needs to be on point from head to toe. Please, don’t wear a romper with your ass hanging out. It is not cute on anyone and I don’t care how thin you are but cheeks dropping under shorts should never be a look…. Continue Reading

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Dunkin’ Donuts through Blog Meets Brand. All snarky thoughts are my own. Happy Spring! I love this time of year because there is so much going on and a lot of things to do! The only problem I have right now is that I have less energy trying to be everywhere and do everything on time.
