She's Pretty For a Dark Skinned Girl.....

I just hate it when I hear "Oh she's pretty for a dark skinned girl". What is that supposed to insinuate that dark skinned girls can't be considered beautiful? Society has the perception that light skin, long hair, colored eyes is the only thing that can be considered beautiful. It makes my stomach turn.

I found this video that I think everyone should watch, take in, and learn from. I love my brown skin and I wouldn't have it any other way!

Checkin in on me, So I can check in with you!

Some of you have been to the site many times, but for you first timers welcome! Last night I decided I needed some sort of change in my life, so I said, "hey let me update my blog". Whole I'm at it how about being more active on it too! For the past year and half I can honestly say I haven't given my all to this blog. I could blame it on lack of inspiration, poor time management skills, or just the ups and downs of life. But that's when it all came back to me. For the longest I've always been the girl who had to make lists for everything (my friend Simona will attest to that). So when I stopped writing and journaling and blogging, when life got a little too complicated I let it take over me. But not anymore! Fab Life Of Summer B was initially me opening up a part of me for you all to see, but over time I stopped checking in on me and kind of got lost in the shuffle of life.

After lots of tears and bottles of Bartenura (my fave Moscato) I decided to make some changes. What better time to start than now? Why wait til January 1st to decide to make changes when I'm already doing them today? I hope you will enjoy what's soon to come!




Summer (smooches)
