Happy Monday!


In celebration of the Martin Luther King Jr.holiday me and family always try to do something to celebrate this holiday and keep the King legacy alive and well. So this year we treated ourselves to the stage play “A Song for Coretta”, playing a the 7 Stages Theater in Little 5 points. “ A Song for Coretta” is a new stage play written by Pearl Cleage and directed by Crystal Dickinson.

ABOUT THE PLAY

A new play about five women who meet in line while standing outside Ebenezer Baptist Church to pay their respects to the late Coretta Scott King. Each women gets the opportunity to tell their story how Mrs. King has affected their own lives.

A Song For Coretta runs through February 17. For the complete listing of dates, times and prices, click here .

S0 for the last couple of days Atlanta has seen some cold days and winter nights, we even got some light snow. So while I was trying to keep warm and enjoy the winter weather I took time to check some of my favorite blogs and sites, when I came across this new company called DimePiece.( http://www.dimepiecedesigns.com/PERFECT10/ )

I must say I was absolutely flawed by their designs. I can’t wait to summertime for it to warm up and I can rock some of their fabulous tees.
Designed by L.A. based duo Ashley Jones and Lara Fama, is "street chic" at its finest. With slogans like “Skinny Doesn't Always Win” and "Ain't No Wifey", this brand was created for the fearless fashionista in you. So, just what is a DimePiece?
