Wise Words: Will Your Friends Let You Be Great?


“Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great.” –Mark Twain
Our friends and families have a lot to do with how we see ourselves. Despite claiming we don’t care what anyone thinks, how we are treated by the people closest to us affects us greatly. When those around us are negative and constantly doubting our abilities, then it makes us doubt them, too. Likewise, when those in our circle are supportive and push us to be the best we can be, we will thrive.
As we head into the weekend, take a look at the people around you. Are they giving you what you need? Do you feel loved, supported, and encouraged? If the answer is no, you might want to have a conversation with them and let them know how they are making you feel. And if they still don’t get it, it might be time to minimize their role in your life.
Life’s too short to be weighed down by naysayers.

Happy Friday & have a good weekend, Clutchettes!

Flaunting Your New Boo Tyra?


Tyra Banks posted a few pics on Instagram that got tongues wagging about her alleged relationship with one of her new "America's Next Top Model" judges.  Check out her Jamaican modeleque pics with her rumored new boy toy inside....
Well if Jennifer Lopez can get away with getting it in with somebody damn near half her age who works for her...why can't Ms. Banks.
Rumors started floating several weeks ago that new "Top Model" judge, Robert Evans, was getting all of Tyra's attention.  And not just professional attention.
Now that hottie Robert has replaced the exiled Jay Manuel & Miss Jay, he and Tyra have been rumored to be spotted having a champagne brunch in Newport beach, cuddled up around L.A., and now, in Jamaica cuddled up in the ocean.
38-year-old Tyra posted the above pic of her and 24-year-old boxer-turned-model Robert saying, 'U guessed it mon, I am irie in sexy Jamaica for #ANTM w/ @the_robevans!'
 
And she posted a few extra pics likely to deflect the attention she knew the first one would receive.  We're not mad Tyra.  No need to hide it if it's true boo...

MAKE YOUR POUT POP!


This morning, our chat consisted of us finding great ways to make your lips pop! Here are some helpful tricks:
1. You must exfoliate your lips once a week to remove dead skin. Apply a balm at night to keep your lips soft & luscious.
2. Lip liner accentuates your lip shape and helps your gloss/lipstick stay on longer.
3. For really defined lips, after applying your lip liner & lipstick, do not kiss your lips together! This will cause your lipstick to look smudged. 
4. Line your lips. Fill them in with a matte lipstick. Then go over the lips with a clear gloss, or a gloss that is the same shade as your lipstick. Dabbing is key!

Tamera Mowry Covers Monarch Magazine and Talks Reality TV, Marriage, and Motherhood


Actress Tamera Mowry graces the cover of the latest issue of Monarch magazine. The mother-to-be, who recently celebrated her 34th birthday, evokes glamorous ’70s style in the editorial with looks like a floppy hat, a metallic evening gown, and a gold shimmery ruffled dress.
For the article, she opens about reality television, impending motherhood, and her marriage to husband Adam Housley:
On reality TV:
“Honestly, it’s very difficult. When we did the pilot, I really didn’t know how difficult it was going to be. Doing this I had to really work on allowing myself to open up and accept the fact that people are going to judge me as a person. We’re used to people criticizing the character we play, but not who were are as people. It took some work.”
On marriage:
“I know this is going to sound cliché, but I really love being a wife. I love being my husband’s wife and 
cooking for him and taking care of him. I just love him.”
On how her life will change once she becomes a mom:
“You change your perspective. It’s not about you; it’s about providing for that child and making the best future for your child.”
