THIS JUST IN!

So, in case you guys have been wondering, Blogger is being really mean to your girl these days. I don't know what the deal is but for some reason when I come on to view T.houghtfuLee, I instantly get sent to some internet error page.

Making a long story short, I won't be posting on here anymore but you can find me at www.realyti.blogspot.com and www.sparkleshelf.com [wardrobe section]. Although I love my baby [T.houghtfulLee] the show will have to continue at another venue.

I was reading an email today and it made me think, "my viewers are probably thinking I'm a slacker." NO WAY JOSE! I love that you guys enjoy my writing. It uplifts me, so THANKS for all of the support and let's get the show on the road.

Head over to either site and show love! PLEASE SUBSCRIBE :)

xoxo

Schools out for the summer and as many of you may have witnessed...it's gonna be a HOT one. Now, I don't know about you guys but I'm a 'look cute always' kinda girl, that basically means, no head-ties to the corner store...lipgloss is a must...I put on mascara to run errands..that's just me, so you know I wasn't gonna let a measly heat-wave stop my coolage [coolage:my sexy, swag...etc.].






Getting to the point...I've fallen deep in love with el gladiator [the sandal of course]. They're extremely stylish, work well with anything and might I add...they're insanely comfortable. I'm not necessarily a 4in. heel kinda chick, epecially not when the sun is practically sitting on my shoulder...that's too Diva for me...I'd opt for a glad in one of the many colors that they come and rock out!

Hola Hovito!

I love Jay's swag in this video.

Arre's Muse: May

My Latest Muse, believe it or not, happens to be Solange Knowles. It happened on a day when I visited a Beyonce Fansite [Beyoncworld.net] and listened to her new single "I decided". I think it's a cute track..it has alot of spunk and it shows her maturity. Not to mention, I've seen some promo pics for the album and she looks really cute. You already know, I'm easily won over by a nice style and a smile and she had both. She gives off such a sweet vibe.

new single:

New Joint:: "Best Thing" Usher feat. Jay-Z

=Im diggin this track right here! Let me know what you think...

"we're close" Rihanna tells Elle magazine [Close is clearly the new Dating]

According to www.ultimate-rihanna.com, Rihanna and Chris Brown left onlookers in no doubt that they're an item as they kissed each other tenderly on the lips during a romantic night out at KFC. It trips me out that they refuse to come out and say that they're dating...I mean it might not bother me if they didn't get caught kissing but they did, so the cat is pretty much out of the bag. I mean, I should hope Rihanna isn't this touchy feely with all of her "friends". I give it up to Jay and B, the King and Queen of secrecy. They may have been caught out on many occasions, but it took years for us to finally get a pic of them being intimate. I mean, it's only right that you take things like that into consideration when you're supposed to be keeping us guessing. Duh!

I still love Rihanna though. Chris has a smoking-hot mama on his hands. I guess he isn't as boring as he looks.

5/7/08 @ MSG!

I was talking to a friend of mine on Tuesday and he told me about a few of his co-workers that were going to the Heart of the City concert at Madison Square Garden. Upon hearing the news, I was of course sick to my stomach but nothing could have injured my heart more than hearing that they had backstage passes. OMG! I couldn't deal after that one. Prior to hearing the news, everyone was hitting me up asking me whether or not I was gonna be in attendance and to each inquiry, I would answer "no". I was initially supposed to go to March 28th show at the Izod Center but things happened which caused that event to be a no go..so I was of course bummed.

Wednesday came and as I sat at home practicing my runway walk, I got a call from my mom. She starts off by asking me whether or not I'm sitting down, and that sort of scared me, I'm like "omg...what happened?!" She goes..."we're going to see Jay"...I freaked out. I was so shocked that I really couldn't pull much of my excitement out of its bag but the lil bit that I did divulge was enough to let her know that she'd made my day.

Getting to the point...I really really enjoyed the show. Mary looked really pretty as usual and my uncle Jay had the crowd going insane just as expected. B came out, she was a treat. She did her strut and her "uh oh" dance as Jay watched. When she exited, the crowd went crazy as the camera zoomed in on his face...he was blushing. I love B almost just as much as I love Jay because I know that she loves Jay and he adores her.

ITS THE ROC!

Dear T.houghtful Lee, I know you gon diss me lol

"I know it's been a while sweet heart, we hardly talk, I was doing my thing." Feeling like Kanye on his track "Flashing Lights". I don't know what's come over me. I've been thinking alot about this blog, it used to be my baby and then I found myself doing other things. I apologize to those who were regular viewers, it was really selfish of me. My mom asked me for probably the fourth time this week, whether or not I've been posting and today I was pretty much over it. I made it my business to come on here. I've just been in a very uncomfortable state lately and I'm trying to get everthing back to normal. Thanks for supporting T.houghtful Lee .

Spring Trend Highlight!

Recently, I made a post about how big Ombre Dyed pieces will be this coming Spring. Well, today I'm going to talk about Neons & Neutrals. If you paid attn. to the runway during Fashion Week, you more than likely witnessed how big of a hit Day-Glo hues were with many designers.

One designer who took advantage of this trend was Philip Lim for 3.1 Philip Lim. Most of his Spring/Summer 2008 collection includes the pairing of really bright colors like neon yellows,pinks etc. with sophisticated neutrals like khaki, navy and white.

To get a glimpse of 3.1 Philip Lim by Philip Lim check out...

LATEST CRAVE!

MAN OH MAN! So, I'm doing my daily runs through myspace trying to promote my blog, and I ran into a photo with the name 'Laura Marie' at the top. I clicked it, perused the page a bit and that's when it happened. I saw a link for DimePiece Designs (www.dimepiecedesigns.com), clicked that and fell in love. Everyone who knows me, can vouche that I am a freak for anything out of the ordinary. To the naked eye, these are just tees...but to the fashion eye...this is HOT ISH! Don't get it confused though, DimePiece isn't all about Tee's, they have hoodies and a bunch of other mean digs! You have to see for yourself. The Tee's that I've posted are pretty much my favorite but I'd throw em' all on!

Gradient!



DIMEPEACE!(love it)
