Weekend Outing: AnEpiphany 2010 / Where hair Meets Fashion

A couple of weekends ago I attended the "AnEpiphany 2010" Hair show that took place at the spacious Dumbo Loft, in Brooklyn.


The show was produced by none other than the FAB Garvin Baptiste of Garvin Productions and was hosted by model/actress Shytina Love.

The show mainly featured hairstyles creations by the talented S. West!

Check out the pics:












The show closed with a performance by pop group Mad Moiselle



There were definitiely lots of talent and creativity in the house and the show drew a packed crowd!

Jean Baylor of Zhane shares her Testimony!

Hey party people. Since today was a slow day on the plantation (thank God) I decided to spend some time digging in the youtube crates to listen to some of my favorite oldies & goodies.

Now when I say "oldies" I'm only talking about the music of the 90's! And yes, while I know it's not necessarily that long ago, when compared the music nowadays it can seem like lightyears away.

One of my absolute favorite groups back then was Zhane.

They're SUPER talented and so naturally beautiful and their music was/is ALWAYS refreshing to hear.


As I started to question "where are they now" I came across this footage of the lovely miss Jean Baylor.

Check it out:



If you miss good music and you're interested in supporting Jean's new project (like I am) you can purchase a copy of her first solo album entitled: "Testimony: My Life Story" here.

I'll definitely be supporting this sister!! Go Get it Girl!

RIP to the GrooveMaster


You don't have to be West Indian or of Caribbean heritage to know the song "Hot Hot Hot"!

Well, sadly enough the very talented creator of that party anthem passed away last week after a long and hard battle against cerebral cancer.


This legend holds a special place in my heart, not only because of what he has done for Caribbean music as a whole but more importantly because he was my uncle.

OMG! He Put a Ring on it!!!!!!!!!!!!


Hi all!! So remember when I mentioned that alot of exciting things have been happening in my life during my time away... well the number one, by far, most exciting thing of all has to be when the love of my life Cisco proposed to me during our stay in Puerto Rico!!!!

Yup! It's official!!! We are set to become Mr. & Mrs. Babb! I can't wait! Sorry fellas, he liked it so much that he put a ring on it and your girl is off the market for good!

Hey what can I say... he's a man with impecable taste! ;))

For the story of how it all went down please check out my post on TheKnot.com here!

That website will be my home for the next year or so as I plan, plan and plan some more for my dream wedding! I'm thinking Spring 2012. What do you think?

Isn't he too cute, asking me to be his forever!!!!!

Yeah! Lemme see that rock! LOL!
AAAooooowwwwww!!!!!!!!!

I know that in this lifetime I have to be doing something right! God has blessed me tenfold and allowed me to spend infinity with my best friend!!

This is my testament to the fact that no matter what kind of negativity or obstacles may seem to come your way as long as you stay with a kind heart and do what you know is right, you will be blessed!

I am eternally grateful to Gad and no one can take this joy out of my heart!

From my fiance & I -- We wish you all the same happiness!!!!!!

Hi loves!!!! I've missed you guys soooo much!!

Did you miss me back???

The Lakers Win Again! Now THEY are some Go-Getters!

I'm not a big basketball fanatic to begin with, and of the little ball that I do watch Kevin Garnett is one of my favorite players. I even grew to know and love the little Rondo guy that always seems to come through when you need him most. So, yes, it's safe to say that I was rooting for the Celtics to win the series! :(

But I must say last night's NBA finals game was AWESOME! While neither team played their best, it was clear as day that they were both hungry for the win! I had the popcorn out chile!

But the best part of the night had to be your boy Ron Artest's post-game interview. LOL!

Check it out below! Hilarity!!!!! But he deserves it! :D
