Save for a mortgage

Do the things that make me happy

Avoid things/people that affect my energy in a negative way

Live!

Don't you love it when you see a really elegant woman and you think to yourself "wow, she's so elegant and classy". You know those women who are so simple yet intriguing, they're never flustered or in a rush. She's calm and patient and kind and she is always well presented.

I want to be one of those women. 

I think there are small but simple things that make a woman 'elegant'...

1. Etiquette and good manners
2. Good posture
3. Having respect for others
4. Being softly spoken
5. Listening without interrupting
6. Being kind
7. Clean and neat nails
8. Confidence
9. Having self-respect
10. Holding high standards
11. Understanding that makeup should be fresh and minimal
12. Knowing how to be diplomatic
13. Avoiding use of vulgar language
14. Being well read
15. Being well travelled
16. Being cultured
17. Sending thank you notes
18. Having integrity
19. Being on time
20. Knowing how to be a good host
21. Being able to accept compliments gracefully
22. Walking in love
23. Not following fashion but having your own personal style
24. Being spiritual
25. Being balanced

I ain't gon' sit around and front like I ain't thought about it

A perfect smile is more appealing but it's funny how

My shit is crooked look at how far I done got without it

We ain't picture perfect but we worth the picture still

And they all look my eyebrows: thick as hell

Love yourself, girl, or nobody will 

With all the pressure to look impressive and go out in heels

I feel for you

Killing yourself to find a man that'll kill for you

You wake up, put makeup on

Stare in the mirror but its clear that you can’t face what’s wrong

No need to fix what God already put his paint brush on

What it's like to have a crooked smile

This crooked smile

I'm on my way, on my way, on my way down

I'm on my way, on my way, on my way down

You're the one that was tryna keep me way down

Like a sun all you know if I'm on my way down

To all the women with the flaws, know it's hard my darling

You wonder why you're lonely and your man's not calling

You keep falling victim cause you're insecure

And when I tell you that you're beautiful you can't be sure

Cause you see that no one wants you back and it got you asking

So all you see is what you lacking, not what you packing 

And baby you're a star, don't let 'em tell you you're not

Now is it real? Eyebrows, fingernails, hair

Is it real? if it's not, girl you don't care

Cause what's real is something that the eyes can't see

That the hands can’t touch, that them broads can’t be, and that’s you

Never let 'em see you frown

And if you need a friend to pick you up, I’ll be around

And we can ride with the windows down, the music loud

I can tell you ain’t laughed in a while

But I wanna see that crooked smile

I'm on my way, on my way, on my way down

I'm on my way, on my way, on my way down

You're the one that was tryna keep me way down

Like a sun all you know if I'm on my way down

Crooked smile, we could style on 'em (back 'round)

Crooked smile, we could style on 'em (back 'round)

You’re the one that was trying to keep me way down.

Like the sun, I know you know I found my way back round

We only fronting like the people on the screen

You know them movie stars, picture perfect beauty queens

But we got dreams and we got the right to chase ‘em

Look at the nation, that’s a crooked smile braces couldn’t even straighten

Seem like half the race is either on probation, or in jail

Wonder why we inhale, cause we in hell already

I asked if my skin pale, would I then sell like Eminem or Adele?

Yo one more time for the 'Ville

And fuck all of that beef shit, nigga let’s make a mil

Hey officer man, we don’t want nobody getting killed

Just open up that cell, let my brother out of jail

I got money for the bail now, well now.

If you asking will I tell now? Hell naw

I ain’t snitching cause

Man, they get them niggas stitches now

If you was around, then you wouldn’t need a witness now

How you like this crooked smile?

        

A date, a night out with the girls, a work do with your colleagues... you can never go wrong with a LBD.
