REMEMBER THE STARS BOOK REVIEW

Hello fashionistas,

Long time no post, I have been dealing with remote schooling with my Kindergartener although school was officially over June 5th LOL, keeping in contact from a distance with my Parents, in laws and my oldest Son Drayton who's in Arizona. This whole pandemic has thrown me off my blogging schedule, but I'm happy to be back today to share a really good book with you ladies today that I believe that your going to enjoy just like I did. I enjoy doing these blog book tours with Paige Boggs, who always shows me so much love and support, it means so much to me that she values my opinion enough to continue to invite me back again Thank you Paige for always inviting me to review and read these amazing books on tour.

MY REVIEW: REMEMBER THE STARS BY  MARISA AND CARRAINE OLDHAM



I really enjoyed reading this book, because it shed light on a  unexpectedly scary time in that Jewish people went through during the Holocaust and Estherly's story was one of fear, confusion and attempting to navigate through love during such a trying time. I really got stuck to the book when  Ferrin found the diaries and got motivated/inspired to explore where Estherly's stories could take her in her own life and to find her true love. It's amazing that Ferrin wanted to know what really happened to the woman who wrote the diaries entries without knowing if she would really find out the truth about what happened to Estherly or not, but she was willing to find out. 





What Estherly and her friend Mae went through was both scary and confusing for a kid to go through when there is little to no explanation from parents about what's happening in their communities and why there are so many changes. In similar ways, what we are facing during this pandemic is sort of like certain parts from the book, for example, the curfew that was enforced by Mayors and Governor's worldwide and having the Army National Guard help with swarming protester clogging the streets. 

I truly enjoyed this book a lot and will definitely be sharing it with my friends and family, because there is a love story in the book that anyone who has ever secretly been in love or secretly had feelings for someone but were to nervous to express how they felt. I definitely will be adding this to my book collection, I don't have enough books at home nowadays so this will be a lovely addition to add into my book shelf and I already added it my Amazon cart for my next payday. 

I have to be honest that I hadn't ever read any book written by Marisa and Carraine  Oldham before and I am looking up more of their books right after I publish this post. I look forward to participating in the next book tour as usual, because I enjoy reading new books that keep me talking about them for weeks to come with my family and friends. Also I do need more actual books with my book shelf so empty lately, I lost majority of my book collection when I had to store a lot of my stuff at a friend of the family house and my Mom found out that they sold a lot of our belongings in a yard sale and unfortunately my books were some of them. 

Thank you guys for reading and following my journey, I hope you enjoyed the book review. Please be sure to look for the book on Amazon, where you can order both paperback or Kindle e books.

BLACK HISTORY MONTH SPOTLIGHT DAY 7

Image
 Hello Fashionistas, I don't like that work got in my way of me finishing my daily black history month spotlight series posts so I have extended it until March 5th to give me time to catch up with everything that I had planned out. As I was researching black owned businesses in my area I came up with yet another idea to highlight some black owned brands by women I've had the pleasure of meeting some in person and others virtually, but they are equally as impactful and empowering. So with that said, let's get into today's empowering black owned business owners who I believe deserve to be spotlighted and I was given the opportunity to ask them their insight on being an entrepreneur and business woman.  BLACK OWNED BUSINESSES IN THE SPOTLIGHT LESLIE MONIQ   shoplesliemoniq.com  Be sure to follow Leslie on IG @lesliemoniq and her business @shoplesliemoniq Founded by Leslie Henry this is a luxurious lip cosmetic line and in my interview with her I got to know more about h...

DATE NIGHT OOTD: KATE SPADE EDITION

Image
 Hello Fashionistas, I know it's been awhile since I've last posted but I promise this long wait will definitely be worth it, I'm so overly excited to share this with you but I'm always for things being set in stone before publicizing things. Now I will say that I will be launching a promotional campaign within the next week or so, but that’s all the information I’m willing to share without giving it away. MY OOTD    Crop top and jeans: Sugar Rackz Louis Vuitton sweater: Street vendor  Heels: Swapmeet 3 layered necklace: Ross   Handbag: Kate Spade  April 8th was my Husband’s birthdasy and since I had to work that day we decided to go out on a date night last night and we got my parents to baby sit the kids so we could finally get to spend time alone since it’s rare we get to do that. We drove to Anaheim to eat some Sonic’s and sat in the car to eat our food and went to best buy for some electronic accessories. We also drove around for awhile just to take in...

VALENTINES DAY OOTD

Image
 Hello Fashion dolls, I'm not really a huge fan of Valentine's day as a "Holiday" it could be because before I reunited with my Husband the guys I dated before him didn't buy me gifts or flowers and rarely even spent the day with me. It's so cliché to only dedicate one day to spreading love to your loved ones and friends, because we should be expressing our love routinely. My Husband and I don't usually give gifts for Valentine's day so this year we decided to just have a small family BBQ, drink and watch movies with out family all day long. OOTD DETAILS     Two piece set: Sugar Rackz/ One piece: Boomy apparel /Sneakers: Vans in brown suede  I bought this outfit for my Valentine's date last year with my Husband and then Covid-19 ruined that date night and I never got to wear it, so I waited to pull it out when ever the pandemic ended. Although things haven't necessarily gone back to normal in the world yet, but I was excited to get the chance t...
