PLASTIC SURGERY CRAZE...

IT SEEMS LIKE EVERY TIME I TURN THE T.V. ON (EVEN THOUGH I DON'T THINK IT'S EVER OFF) IT SEEMS THERE IS ALWAYS SOMETHING ABOUT GETTING PLASTIC SURGERY OR SOME TYPE OF WEIGHT LOSS DIET. IS THE WORLD THAT SELF ABSORBED? I MEAN I AM THE FIRST TO ADMIT I HAVE GONE UNDER THE KNIFE. BUT WHO ARE WE TRYING TO IMPRESS??? ARE WE REALLY THAT MUCH HAPPIER AFTER THE SURGERY IS DONE ( SHIT... I KNOW I WAS)?

BUT WHAT'S WRONG WITH GOING TO THE GYM WORKING HARD TO LOSE THAT LAST 10LBS.? WE MUCH RATHER PAY A SURGEON 5K TO SUCK IT OUT... THEN RISK GETTING HOOKED ON PAIN PILLS. I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE LIPO... BUT I DON'T HAVE A WEIGHT PROBLEM. THEREFOR I FEEL AS IF I MAY AS WELL FLUSH MY MONEY DOWN THE TOILET (ANYONE WHO KNOWS ME KNOWS THAT I'M FINANCIAL CONSCIOUS). ALL I NEED TO DO IS TAKE MY LAZY ASS TO THE GYM... AND EAT RIGHT. ALL I WANT TO DO IS TONE. SO THIS SHOULD BE EASY RIGHT??? WRONG... EASIER SAID THAN DONE!

SO FROM THIS DAY FORWARD... I VOW TO WHIP MYSELF INTO SHAPE! LORD AND BAHAREH ONLY KNOWS HOW MANY TIMES I HAVE SAID THAT. SO WE'LL SEE!

SMOOCHES... NIKKI

HAPPY NEW YEARS!

HEY I KNOW I'M HELLA LATE. I REALLY ONLY BLOG WHEN I'M BORED. BUT ANYWAY... MY NEW YEAR'S WEEKEND WAS ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC. I SPENT IT IN MIAMI AND HAD THE BEST TIME EVER EVEN THOUGH I DIDN'T GET TO SPEND IT WITH MY MAN OR MY DC3 GIRLS. I STAYED TWO NIGHTS AT MY HOTEL (EVEN THOUGH I REALLY DIDN'T SLEEP) AND THE REMAINDER AT A GIRLFRIEND'S HOUSE.

WE CONJURED AT NEWS CAFE (NOT MY FAVE) EVERYDAY PEOPLE WATCHING. I GOT A CHANCE TO MEET A LOT OF FEMALES THAT I WOULDN'T NORMALLY TALK TO (I'M NOT THE SOCIAL BUTTERFLY). BUT EVERYONE WAS COOL AND CONFIDENT IN THERE OWN LIGHT. EVERYONE SORT OF LOOKED OUT FOR EACH OTHER. WE PARTIED, ATE LATE, ATE GREAT AND DRANK A LOTT!

OF COURSE I SHOPPED... GOT A FEW PIECES HERE AND THERE (NOTHING TOO SERIOUS)! BUT MIAMI IS NOT TO BE TAKEN TOO SERIOUS... JUST A FUN SPOT FOR ME TO RELAX AND ENJOY A NICE RESTAURANT ( AND I DON'T CALL RUTH'S CHRIS NICE! ).

AND SINCE VACATION IS MY MIDDLE NAME... MY MAN AND I RECENTLY PURCHASED A BEACH PROPERTY THAT HAS A SCHEDULED JULY DELIVERY DATE! I CAN'T FREAKING WAIT... I CAN WALK TO THE NEW MR. CHOW ( W HOTEL ) FROM THE NEW SPOT!

BUT ANYWAY... I PRAY THAT EVERYONE IS FABULOUS TO THE 10TH POWER AND THAT WE ALL MAKE IT THROUGH THIS RECESSION. I KNOW SOME ARE SUFFERING MORE THAN OTHERS BUT REMEMBER THAT IT COULD ALWAYS BE WORSE.

LOVE YOU ALL... NIKKI

iVACATION!

ANYONE THAT KNOWS ME PERSONALLY KNOWS THAT I LOVE TO VACATION! I SPEND MOST OF THE WEEKDAY IN MY HOUSE. SO GETTING OUT OF TOWN IS ALWAYS A TREAT!

SO MY GIRLS (DC3) AND I ARE GOING TO MIAMI BEACH THIS FRIDAY (MIAMI BEACH IS ONE OF THE CLOSEST AND FUN GET-A-WAYS IN THE STATES)! I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THE BEACH FROM THE SAND IN MY BATHING SUIT TO THE PEALING OF MY SKIN ONCE I LEAVE!

SINCE I'VE BEEN IN DC, I THINK I'M SOOOO OVER THE CLUB SCENE. THE SAME PEOPLE AT THE SAME VENUES. EVEN IF THE VENUE CHANGES... IT'S STILL THE SAME PEOPLE. BUT PARTYING IN A DIFFERENT CITY IS A LOT MORE FUN! ALTHOUGH BEING HOME HAS IT'S PERKS (NO WAITING IN LINE... LOL), I'D ALMOST RATHER GET A POPULAR FRIEND IN EVERY HOT CITY JUST TO AVOID THE MADNESS! ; )

BUT MY GIRLS AND I ARE DESTINED TO HAVE A BLAST WITH EACH OTHER (WE ALWAYS DO)! WE'RE SO MUCH MORE LIKE SISTERS. WE ALMOST NEVER ARGUE BUT WE DO GET ON EACH OTHERS NERVE. SO I'M SURE THIS MINI VACAY WILL BE NO DIFFERENT.

WE'RE ALSO STAYING AT A FRIENDS CONDO THIS TIME AROUND. I WILL GIVE YOU THAT INFO IN A LATER BLOG IF IT'S WORTH THE MENTION. SO STAY TUNED FOR ALL THE DISH UPON MY RETURN! SMOOCHES- NIKKI

LOOKING BACK AT TROUBLED MINDS!

OK, SINCE SOME PEOPLE ARE A LITTLE SLOWER THAN OTHERS ON THE CONCEPT OF BLOGGING... LET ME CLARIFY MY BLOGS! THEY ARE OF MY OWN PERSONAL OPINION. BUT SINCE SOME PEOPLE SEEM TO TAKE WHAT I SAY AS THE 11TH COMMANDMENT (I CAN'T HELP THAT I'M SO UBER GLAMOROUS)... I AM DELIGHTED TO INFORM MY READERS! I WILL BE THE FIRST TO SAY "TO KNOW ME IS TO LOVE ME!" (I THINK THAT'S HOW THAT'S QUOTED OR MAYBE THE OTHER WAY AROUND LOL) SO IF YOU DON'T HAVE A THICK SKIN... THEN I AM NOT THE FEMALE YOU SHOULD BEFRIEND.

IF I WRITE A BLOG, AND YOU THINK IT REFERS TO YOU IN A NEGATIVE LIGHT...LMAO I'M TRULY SORRY FOR YOUR PARANOIA. 10 TIMES OUT OF 10... I WASN'T EVEN THINKING OF YOU WHEN I WROTE IT (SORRY BOO). I AM NOT PERFECT IN ANY FORM ( I JUST APPEAR PERFECT TO THE UNINFORMED).

TO THE HUNGRY INDIVIDUAL THAT JOCKS ME EVERYDAY (I REPLY BECAUSE I AM A NICE PERSON & I DON'T EVEN APPROVE MOST OF YOUR COMMENTS B/C I THINK IT IS OF STALKER CHARACTERISTIC)... YOU SHOULD BE A CNN REPORTER INSTEAD OF WHATEVER IT WAS YOU MAJORED IN (YOU POST THAT ISH EVERYDAY AND NOONE CARES). "RUN TELL THAT!" I GUESS WHEN ONE HAS "NO BUSINESS" THEY TEND TO TRY AND PENETRATE THE MISGUIDED. BUT SINCE I AM STILL A PROFESSIONAL... I KNOW CERTAIN THINGS DON'T WARRANT A RESPONSE. (HOW CAN YOU BE TWO FACED TO TWO PEOPLE YOU CLEARLY DON'T KNOW)? (LET US PRAY)

BUT TO EVERYONE THAT SHOWS ME GENUINE LOVE... RIGHT BACK AT YOU! I LOVE ALL YOU FABULOUS DIVAS AND WISH YOU ALL THE SUCCESS IN LIFE THAT YOU CAN IMAGINE! AND TO THE UNINFORMED... YOU TRY AND BE FABULOUS TOO! SMOOCHES

FAKE IT UNTIL YOU MAKE IT?

WHAT IS "FAKE IT UNTIL YOU MAKE IT?" WELL SINCE THIS IS MY BLOG... I WILL TELL YOU WHAT IT MEANS TO ME! IT IS WHAT IT IS... ONE BIG FRAUD. I DO NOT CONDONE IT NOR DO I RESPECT IT. HOW CAN ONE WALK AROUND CLAIMING TO BE SOO "REAL" BUT IS YET A COMPULSIVE LIAR.

FROM THE FAKE HAND BAGS TO THE FAKE ICED OUT CHAINS... IT'S JUST MAKING IT HARD FOR PEOPLE TO BE THEMSELVES. MONEY AND POWER IS NOT MEANT FOR EVERYONE. SOMEONE HAS TO DO THE ODD JOBS (ie, cashiers, drivers etc). THIS IS WHAT MAKES THE WORLD GO AROUND. LEARN HOW TO BECOME AN INDIVIDUAL AND STOP PRETENDING TO BE SOMEONE ELSE. IF EXPENSIVE MATERIAL THINGS ARE DESTINED FOR YOU... THEN IT WILL COME IN TIME. PEOPLE OFTEN FORGET THAT IS TAKES HARD WORK (UNLESS YOU COME FROM WEALTH) TO AQUIRE THESE THINGS. AND IT IS NOT UNTIL THEN THAT YOU APPRECIATE IT.

SOME WEALTH COMES FROM PURE LUCK! AND THERE IS A TEST THAT GOES ALONG WITH THE LUCKY PEOPLE. THEY WILL ONLY HAVE WEALTH FOR SO LONG UNLESS THEY ARE SMART ABOUT THEY'RE INVESTMENTS. SO FROM A WOMAN'S POINT OF VIEW... I HAVE BEEN ON BOTH SIDES OF THE FENCE. PLEASE BELIVE THAT I UNDERSTAND THE GAME.

SO BEFORE YOU GO ON MYSPACE POSTING PICTURES OF FRAUDULENT PIECES OR STEALING IDENTITIES TRYING TO LIVE VICARIOUSLY THRU OTHERS... JUST REMEMBER THAT GAME RECOGNIZES GAME. AND YOU MAY NEVER FOOL A REAL BITCH!

"RED SOLE" ...... CHRISTIAN LOUBOUTIN

CLEARLY THESE ARE NOT JUST SHOES... THEY ARE WORKS OF ART! YOU CAN FIND THEM ON THE RED CARPET AND EVEN IN LYRICS OF HIP HOP MUSIC! THEY SOMETIMES HURT LIKE HELL (ESP THE RANDOM 5 INCH ONES THAT ARE MADE). ALTHOUGH THEY COME IN ALL COLORS, IT IS THE TRADITIONAL RED SOLE THAT CATCHES THE EYE!

DON'T THINK THAT YOU'LL FIND THEM IN A MALL (UNLESS IT'S A GALLERIA). AND UNLESS YOU'RE USE TO COMING OUT OF THE POCKET WITH $700 A PAIR... THEN THE LOUBOUTIN LIFESTYLE IS "NOT" FOR YOU!

ONCE FEATURED ON OPRAH (SHE'S OFTEN SEEN WEARING THEM), THE SHOES ARE SAID TO TELL A STORY! I CAN REMEMBER LEAVING A PAIR OF BROWN PATENT LEATHER ONES IN THE BACK OF MY RENTAL CAR IN ATLANTA. I WAS PISSED WHEN I ARRIVED TO MY TERMINAL WHEN I REALIZED WHAT I DID. AND OF COURSE THE FEMALE ATTENDANT THAT WORKED FOR HERTZ CAR RENTAL HADN'T SEEN THEM! WHAT CAN I SAY... I HAD TO TAKE ONE FOR THE TEAM

SO HERE ARE A FEW POINTERS IF YOU'RE EVER SO LUCKY TO BUY YOUR FIRST PAIR:
*THEY OFTEN RUN A WHOLE SIZE SMALLER (MADE BY THE FRENCH)
*IF ORDERING ONLINE, BE SURE TO GET THEM IF YOU LOVE A PRE SALE PAIR (THE EXCLUSIVE ALWAYS SALE OUT FAST)
*BE SURE TO WRITE AND TELL ME ABOUT YOUR LOUBOUTIN EXPERIENCE!

AND REMEMBER..... "I STILL HAVE MY FEET ON THE GROUND, I JUST ROCK LOUBOUTINS"

MY FAVORITE LITTLE DRESS (HERVE LEGER)

IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR A FABULOUS DRESS TO WEAR TO A WEDDING, UPSCALE PARTY, ROMANTIC DINNER (BASICALLY ANYWHERE YOU WOULDN'T WANT TO WEAR JEANS)... THEN HERVE LEGER IS THE DESIGNER YOU GO TO WHEN YOU WANT TO TURN HEADS (CLEARLY BEING SWAG-FABULOUS).

THESE DRESSES ARE WORN AMONG THE ELITE... SINGERS, ACTRESSES AND SOCIALITES AROUND THE WORLD. THEY ARE KNOWN FOR THE BANDAGES THAT HOLD THE BODY FIRMLY IN PLACE. IF YOU'RE NOT AFRAID OF SHOWING YOUR CURVES THEN THIS IS THE DESIGNER FOR YOU!

I OWN A COUPLE BUT HAVE ONLY BEEN LUCKY ENOUGH TO WEAR AT HOME WHILE ADMIRING BY SILHOUETTE IN MY BEDROOM MIRROR! MAYBE ONE DAY I WILL STUNT FOR THE WORLD (LORD KNOWS I'M CAPABLE)!
