Happy New Year!!

Have a Wonderful Holiday Weekend!

Happy Holiday!!

I hope everyone is enjoying Memorial Day. Have a great day and fabulous week.

Dolce and Gabbana Light Blue

My co-worker wore this perfume to work one day, and I immediately loved it. I don't ever wear perfume because of allergies, but this one is impressive. It literally made me fell like I was getting a breath of fresh air. Maybe if I hint around, I may be able to get this for Mothers Day... :-). But I will be just as happy with hugs and kisses!

Dolce & Gabbana Blue

They have this available for men and women. To bad there's no way to add a scratch and sniff spot, via the web. Wouldn't that be cool...

New blog design!

I liked the old design of the Naturally Beautiful Hair blog, but it was time for a change...

What do you think of the new design??

Butterfly card from Carols Daughter

Mothers Day is coming up, and Carol's Daughter put together a cute butterfly card generator. Minus all the ad's that come along with the email notice to your Mom, its a great idea. One way to send the card to your mom with out the ads is to send the card to yourself, get the link and email the link directly to your Mom. Check out the card from Jada Pinkett in the above picture.

Totally Random....

Ok.... so I am so happy. It's funny how sometimes the smallest things can make you smile. I have been wearing the same broke down glasses for like 2 years now. Much longer than that! But the last 2 years have been the worst because my glasses were basically falling apart. I was working from home for a year or two, so my insurance was basically non-existent. But things have been better lately. So I finally took the plunge and brought 2 pairs of new glasses. What do you think? This is the first time I have ever gotten square frames, but I kind of like it. I am hoping that I have that sexy librarian look going on... lol.

Ok ok.... so I am a big nerd. But a cool nerd... right?!? Maybe even a little très nerdy chic?  He he.. one can only hope! Happy Thursday everyone.

Oval Office Figurine

I love this Oval office figurine of the Obama Family by designer Annie Lee. This is definitely on my Christmas wish list.

My new office... :-)

This is so off topic. But I am so excited!! I have my very own office for the first time.

For my folks on Facebook, sorry for the repeat of info... lol. Last year, I was working from home. But that project came to an end. So now, I am back to the nine to five. I am really enjoying my new job - and hope that I will stay with this company for a long time. Anyway - absolutely nothing to do with Naturally Beautiful Hair. But I am really happy about having a little space to call my own. I am glowing from the inside out. And hoping that I am not jinxing myself right now. Everyone keep your fingers crossed that I will have a long and successful career with my current company. Have a good weekend everyone!

Celebrate Martin Luther King Jr.

Celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. on this day and every day...

Little time off... :-)

Hello everyone,

I am taking a much needed couple of days off, and taking advantage of my holiday work break. Lots of Sleep, Exercise, Meditation & Self-reflection. I am thinking of you and this blog daily. I will be back before this week is over. I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday weekend. Talk to you all soon!

I love this art work. These are actually six different drawings that I combined together for this post. I can not remember the artist name, but when I find it - I will update this post. I love it! Enjoy...

Happy Thanksgiving!

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving everyone!!

Fabulous at 35!

I turn 35 years old today. Happy Birthday to me... ;-). Yes I am getting old(er)... lol. But age is just a number.

High on my wish list?? Shoes and flowers of course!

But really - I am just grateful to have my family. That we are all healthy and strong. Here's to another year celebrating being a wife, mom, artist & strong woman. Cheers!

What will you be??

Halloween is tomorrow... Woo hoo! For those of you that are going out and celebrating this day, tell us what you plan to dress up as? I will be a Devilish Angel. Have a great weekend everyone.

Friday Fun!! Cool Photo effects...

Ok... so a I am little bit of a geek at heart. I don't know if that is a good or bad thing. Anyway, sometimes when I get bored, I like to goof around on the Internet and look for interesting things to do. Here are a few cool photo effects site that I found. The first site is BeFunky.com where you can add color effects to your photo.

The second site is Taaz.com. On Tazz you can add sunglasses to your picture or change your make up. The makeup effect (below) looks weird to me 'cause I am not big on tons of lipstick and eye makeup. But it was fun to try.

The third site is called Color Try. I thought this was a cool tool to use of you want to see what your hair might look like in a different shade.

Alright, enough goofing around for me. I need to get back to work! I hope you enjoy this post. If you know if any cool photo effect sites, please leave a comment, with a link to the site or the name of the site you like. Have a wonderful weekend.

XOXO - Karen
