GOING LIVE IS SCARY

You never know what is going to happen when you go “LIVE” on FaceBook. I know some of you might not be on FaceBook so let me explain what I am talking about. Instead on writing a post or putting a picture up on my timeline I can choose to record a live video. Going live is always scary for me because you never know what is going to happen or if I am going to completely lose my train of thought which happens often. Lol! Anyway, I went live last night and it was hilarious……
I have found a new app that I am playing around with that allows you to put graphics and text messages into your live video so I wanted to test it out. I got brave and hit the GO LIVE button and started talking then I see a comment from a reader pop up. People who are watching the video can comment and I can give answers if there is a question. Anyway, I see a lady in a dress and the comment says, “You are beautiful.” Awww, isn’t that sweet? Then in just a few seconds, there is another comment from the same person saying, “I want to talk to you” then another one “We can do video chat” and then another that says “I want you to help” and all this is going on while I am on live video. I started losing my train of thought by then and I knew that it was not a “real” person or friend but I was live and there wasn’t anything I could do about it. I managed to get through the video but you can see me giving the screen some strange looks while I am taping it. Lol! As soon as I finished the video I went and deleted the comments but I have no idea if anyone saw them. I bet they were chuckling if they did. Hahaha!Pick a color, any color. Lol! There are soooo many colors in this top that you could wear this for days and not wear the same pair of pants twice. Those of you that are not fans of color are not going to like this post in the least because it is color overload. The off the shoulder top is by Entro which is a brand you find in specialty boutiques. I like how this one has a thick band at the shoulders which helps it to stay in place better. If you don’t like the off the shoulder look you could always wear the top in a normal style. It still looks great.

I love these earrings!!! These are a pair of earrings that Julie from Kay & Star sent me back a month ago. I have been waiting for just the right top to wear them with and this one was perfect. These are so lightweight and you talk about a statement! I think the hot pink suede tassel earrings just match the hot pink in the top. The Reece necklace is a little harder to pick out because of all the prints. I tried on several different necklaces but nothing showed up great so I just went with the Reece which happens to be the middle name of my new grandson. Lol! The matching bracelet to the Reece necklace is called the Beatrice. The Ashley bracelet on the right arm is too cute. It has been one of my all time favorite bracelets that I have gotten from Plunder. It is perfect for the summer months but with the topaz colors on it, I think it will still be fine for fall. Tired of seeing my Kate Spade purse yet??? Just break down and get your own and you won’t be sitting there with green eyes. At least that was what I did every time I saw a purse like this that someone was carrying. Lol!

I love this orchid pair of pixie pants from Old Navy. I put them on this morning and I kept thinking, “dang, I am really gaining weight. These things are tight.” Then, I looked at the tag and I realized why they were tight. When you buy pixie pants from Old Navy that has spandex in them you need to size up. I know that so I have no idea why I purchase a pair in my normal size. ?

Okay, before someone else comments, I know the earrings and the pants are two different hues. I put the earrings on as I was walking out the door to take my pictures. When I looked at the pictures I could see that they didn’t really go together but it was too late. Oh well, I don’t think that anyone had an adverse reaction to seeing them together. Haha!!! I have on my Marc Fisher platform sandals today. I came around a corner too fast at work and about fell off of them. I thought that would have been super smart. I could just hear Joe if I had broke my ankle because I fell off a pair of platform shoes. We do NOT want to go there. Lol!With disasters, you will see the true nature and compassion of the human race. It is heartbreaking to see so much devastation in Houston. Texans are proud and resilient people and I know they will rebound but until then they need some help. Every little bit helps and every prayer counts. Here are some of the things that I am going to do and you can feel free to comment if you know of others:

1. Text HARVEY to 90999 which will donate 10.00 to the Red Cross.
2. Donate to the Food Banks in Houston.
3. Donate to the Diaper Bank in Texas. You can choose the disaster relief link.
4. All of my proceeds from R+F this week will go to these organizations.
5. Sharing and Praying.

I may only be one person but all of us as a collective can do great things.

BTW, if you want to watch the FaceBook live video that I did yesterday to see my reactions to the texts, just click here.

You know when you put a post on FaceBook you wait to see if you will get any “likes” or “hearts?” That is how I feel about my blog. Leaving a comment and pinning a picture to Pinterest is my equivalent to a “like.” If you share my post on FaceBook that is a “heart.” Show me some love, gurls!!!
