12 Things Link Up | January Follow Up

Linking up with Rima to follow up on what I've accomplished so far with my 12 Things list!

1. Eat Something Different from the Norm:
I ate shark when I went to Barbados.
Soooo good and maybe I cheated a little bit because it was fried...
I mean, anything fried can't be bad right?
 Will be posting about that next week :)

2. See a Broadway Show: 
Narrowed down my choices to "The Lion King", "Once" and "The Newsies".
More than likely I'll see "The Lion King".
Gotta budget for tickets.

3. Fit into my old jeans.
Been working out ... Still can't get my jeans up past my thighs though.
They fit my waist ... Not my thighs smh.
#thunderthighs

4. Start Dancing and Choreographing Again.
Not yet but sooooooon.

5. Buy a pair of cowboy boots, put a western outfit together and go line dancing.
Talked to my girl, Noelle, who lives in Jersey about going to a rodeo or line dancing.
She's down to show me the country side of life.
We danced together in college and I guess you can say opposites attract.
She's Country, I'm Hip-Hop.
She's gonna show me how to line dance and I'll show her how to twerk.
We just gotta set a date for me to come visit.

6. Go to Maine.
So far, I've narrowed this trip to happening in the summer around July, August-ish.

7. Do a legit outfit post where I pose in the middle of the street with cars all around me like the real fashion bloggers do.
Too cold outside. Check back in the spring.

8. Teach a dance class.
I'm hoping this will happen in the Fall.
I'm looking to teach a guest class at some point once I've gotten my flow back with dance.

9. Visit my Mom or vice versa.
I'm going to visit my Mom in Chicago this year since she came to New York last year.
Charles has never been to Chicago so I think he's gonna tag along so I can pop his cherry :)

10.  Channel Jigglypuff.
Been brainstorming my Halloween outfit ...
I've seen some jiggly puff shirts online.
They're kinda funny looking but I love what I've seen so far.
Gotta find ears. Thinking about a pink wig and pink leggings.
May use an empty spray can as my microphone/marker.
p.s. Charles mentioned the other day that he's thinking about being Trindad James for Halloween ...
What do you think about a Jigglypuff & Trinidad James couple!?!?!
I'm dying laughing right now hahaha!

11. Try a new hobby.
I want to get into making videos...
I already have a love for taking pictures so I may as well transition into mini-movie land.
I've seen some awesome videos other bloggers have made showcasing their travels and experiences.
I'd love to branch off and give this a try.
I recorded a decent amount of footage of my trip to Barbados and am thinking about turning those clips into a mini-video.
Not really sure when I will get to it since I've been so busy...
Maybe even a video of what I love about NYC at some point?

12. Get Dressed ... Like Forreal.
About that ...
I think because my style is more urban/streetwear,
I feel like the nice clothes I throw on don't look dressy compared to other people's chic style.
I've been wearing jeans alot more as apposed to my sweats so I guess that's progress.
Still trying to figure what getting "dressed up" means for me.
I love my t-shirts & sneakers... I love my menswear.
Maybe, what I need to do is wear more dresses?
Idk ... To be continued.

What I wore to work yesterday.

A typical outfit for me ... T-shirt, skinny jeans, and sneakers.

To Sum It Up ...
I'm in the process of accomplishing alot of these things on my list...
But the only thing I actually crossed off my list was eating a different kind of food.
Maybe next month will be better?
