Just Can't Get Enough

If you follow HerLateNightCra on Twitter (which if you don't, you totally should...hahaha), then you might have seen a tweet from me this morning & I *might* have been doing back flips because I was so excited!  Let me fill you in....  Jayme & I have been following Lorraine Stanick's YouTube channels (The Current Custom & The Current Boobies) for the last seven months or so & let us just warn you, if you haven't discovered her yet, then prepare to become addicted.  We love catching up on the ins & outs of this girl's life down in Sarasota, Florida...and WHAT a life it is...

Lorraine runs an online "boutique" called The Current Custom, where she sells some home goods, accessories & mostly "jewels," as Lorraine likes to call them.  

Well, I can 110% thank Lorraine for my current obsession with bracelets, watches & various other "jewels."  Hence, the title of this post, Just Can't Get Enough.

Last Thursday, I broke down (seriously though ladies, I like to consider it a break through) & I purchased two Dillon Rogers bracelets from The Current Custom.  But, let's pause for a second, so that I don't get this twisted...

When you make a purchase from The Current Custom it's actually shipping to you from Exit Art, which is owned & operated by the Stanick family out of Sarasota, Florida.  And if/when you watch Lorraine's vlog channel, The Current Boobies (and yes, that's the name of it, which you may think is inappropriate, but we swear it's not what you think), then you will see appearances from the infamous Debbie, so imagine my excitement this morning, when from my mailbox I pulled a package saying:

Ladies, honestly, this is as close as I get to "celebrity" interaction...Richmond isn't exactly a happening place for the rich & famous.  (Although, we are going to have Steven Spielberg filming a movie about Abraham Lincoln here in Richmond & the tri-cities area later this year, starring Daniel Day Lewis & Sally Fields...now I'm just completely side-tracked...)  

Anyway, I thought I'd share with you some of the goodies I got from The Current Custom/Exit Art:

And, of course, I would be remiss to not show you the back side of the gray braided leather bracelet, where it has DILLON ROGERS stamped on the back:

Happy Monday to me!!!  I knew this was going to be a good week because my husband & I are leaving on Wednesday morning for our trip to Chicago, but receiving my package so quickly from Exit Art was the icing on the cake!   

I hope that all of you out there are having a wonderful Monday morning too!  Let us know if you're as easy to please as me...all it requires is some "jewels!"  I'm just being honest.  :)  Oh & stay tuned for another post later this week, featuring some of my favorite "stacks"...just wait...you'll see...it's a filthy, dirty addiction...

Locks I Love...THE REMIX!

OK, so my version of a remix doesn't feature Diddy or Lil' Wayne...well maybe some T-Pain...just kidding.

No, I'm talking about hair again.  Recently on a post titled "Locks I Love" I featured some beautiful colors/cuts/styles for Spring & Summer and I talked about how I wanted to go to the salon and get my hair done.  It has been way too long and my hair desperately needed a little love and attention.  As you can see in the video, I didn't do anything so different than before.  As in I decided to keep the dark hair and take the length up a few inches.  And my stylist, Katherine, textured my layers so I can mix up my look a little.

And I won't lie...I wanted to keep the cost down so that's one of the reasons we decided to color my hair the way in which I described in the video - without actually putting in highlights.  So I got a great color and it was really affordable (and maybe next time I'll be a little more adventurous.)

The products that I mentioned in the video that I'm trying out are from Bumble & Bumble's new line.  I will let you guys know what I think of the products.

Let it Shine Shampoo and Conditioner
Texture Hair (Un) Dressing Creme

If you live in the Richmond area you can visit Karinas in Carytown and ask for Katherine.

Thanks for watching! What have you done to your locks lately?
