Hi pretties,
It is a new month, but more importantly, it is my birthday month….LOLOL But seriously, I was thinking of what to do for my bday besides the tried and true dinner with friends. Of course I love good conversation over a good meal with friends, but I was thinking what else is there to do on this special day? So, here are 5 experiences to try solo or with friends. And, these ideas generally are not all that expensive but still a whole lotta fun!

Mother’s Day Gift Guide – Eloquii

May 7, 2018 by robincharmagne 24 Comments

mothers day-gift-guide-2018-robincharmagne
Hello pretties,
Mother’s Day is this Sunday so I pulled together some cool gift ideas for Mama. Eloquii, as y’all already know, is one of my favorite plus-size retailers with sizes ranging from 14 to 28, including petite plus! It goes without saying that they sell beautiful, on-trend fashion, but did you know Eloquii also sells an entire line of accessories to include, jewelry, belts, shoes, hats, and scarfs to name a few? Accessories are like the icing on the cake, that last detail to really make an outfit pop! Take a peek at some pretty accessories for Mom!

For Mom

I would buy my Mom every one of these pieces. My faves are the slides for their style and comfort and the sunglasses because you can not have too many pairs of “shades” right? The jewelry pieces are perfect for your casual or more dressed up outfits. And, belts always add polish to an outfit. And of course I added a couple of tops, could not resist. These two are fabulous and I own both of them. Snag em’ and an accessory, you will not be disappointed.

I love shopping for Mama. Are you expecting anything cool for Mother’s Day or are you giving something cool?

Hearts – Valentine’s Day Gifts Under $25

February 12, 2018 by robincharmagne 8 Comments

Hello pretties,
Who says Valentine’s Day has to be expensive? It does not and I have hand picked a bunch of cuteness with a heart theme and every single goodie is under $25. This is a variety of items from jewelry to clothing. Take a peek!

These are good choices for you (yes you can get yourself something for Valentine’s Day), Moms, sisters, friends, anyone you want to show a little heart! A lot of people say that they hate Valentine’s Day, too commercial, blah, blah, blah – do you celebrate Valentine’s Day and do you have a fave from the heart gifts?

Hello pretties,
Celebrating to auspicious occasions today, The birthday of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and the 110th Founders’ Day of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.

In the spirit of what Dr. King stood for, serve your community today in whatever capacity you can, just do something to improve your community!

What A Girl Wants – 2017 Gift Guide

Happy Holidays pretties!
It is a three day week and a holiday week with Thanksgiving just a few days away and my other “holiday” Black Friday. As we kick off the holiday shopping season, I thought I would pull together some gifts that I think are pretty cool. There is something in this guide from fashion, home, and travel, in a wide range of price points. Take a peek at these goodies…

Accessories

It may be cliche, but absolutely true, accessories can make or break an outfit. Amp up your holiday outfit with these three on trend accessories – a beret, designer belt, or fur lined slides. Right on time for cooler temps is the fashionable beret. This hat flatters any size head and it does matter if your hair is long or short, you will look uber chic in a beret. We can credit Gucci for the designer belt trend. This option is an affordable alternative, yet still quite stylish. Gucci for the win again with another hot trend, the fur slide. Perfect mix of comfort and style with this casual shoe.

Home Decor

During the holidays, we’ll be hanging around the house a lot more. Here are some fun and useful gifts. Make someone’s day and gift them a sprocket, they will love you forever. This is hands down the coolest printer to print photos directly from your phone. The paper has a sticky back for scrapbooking and memory keeping. Leave the paper on the back to add photos to picture frames. If you are like me and need some motivation to meet your water goals, this bottle is the answer. With time reminders, you will easily sip your way to hydration. Gadgets are my thing and this spiralizer is at the top of my list this holiday season. With three blades for a spaghetti cut, fettuccine cut, or a ribbon cut – easily transform fruits and veggies into noodles, ribbons, and chips. Make your meals healthier with this awesome tool that is budget friendly and dishwasher safe.

Travel

Do you have your passport yet? Get it now! See the world with these pretty and functional gifts. Be a stand out traveler with this unique wheeled carry-on in black and white. Snag it for your next weekend getaway. Store all your chargers with these cases in your choice of pretty colors – black, silver, or gold. For your international travel, you will need an adapter for the electrical outlets. This one is heavy duty and comes with a sturdy case.

I have been pretty good this year hoping Santa leaves some of these goodies under my tree. I really like that spiralizer…hint hint. Have a fave from this guide? Already have one of these gifts? Let me know what you think about it!
