What's Been Going on with You?

First off, let me say this. I am not perfect, and I am not a robot.

Fall Makeup Look + Fashion at the Trap Music Museum

Fall Makeup Look + Fashion at the Trap Music Museum

I am sure that all creatives can agree that we love to create. No matter what it is, it is our first love. Sometimes, we work so hard at what we do, and we tend to forget to take time out to enjoy going out without thinking about, creating.

In my case, I love creating content. My mind wonders 24/7 and sometimes it drives myself crazy. After a long work week, it was time to enjoy a night out and engage in some activities that do not require any form of work. That is what I did - I attended the pop-up Trap Music Museum in Atlanta.

Happy October! It's a new month, and we are just under 100 days remaining of 2018. I remember at the beginning of this year, I read through my list of goals I wanted to achieve for 2018 and I can honestly tell you that rebranding was not one of them. However, I did indicate through prayer for an increase in my business and craft.

It's been a while since I've done any Get Jay's Look posts and it feels good to bring them back. Kicking off my 2018 makeup looks, it was only right to recreate Beyonce's makeup from her performance at Coachella. 

Nice for What: Celebrating Myself

Nice for What: Celebrating Myself

I have always been a fan of Drake's music, especially when he released More Life last year. To this day I still play that album from start to finish. Earlier this year, he released God's Plan, and it caught my attention, at least I thought it did until he dropped, Nice for What this past Friday night. Let me tell you, the MOMENT I HEARD THIS SONG, I instantly fell in love.
