EVERYONE SHOULD VIEW THIS!!!

My Bohemian Look

So I havent been blogging like I should cause I pride myself on having too much of a life to have free time to blog but now im outta school for the whole summer and jobless I have plenty of time to blog. First I need to post what I wear cause I rarely do that smh. I get jealous viewing all my followers and ppl I follow all dolled up and here I am a stylist not posting what I can do....well that will change soon. This outfit I have on is my home made cheetah skirt thats sheer and a miniskirt underneath, a half top with studs across the shoulder and my ol school steve madden platforms. I also made 2 head bands to match and attached one of my clip on earrings...lol no secrets here my friends =)...Oh btw pictured with me is my bbf Brittany and my high school potna Nikki and my child hood buddy Lauren...I love my girls♥

Mia Amber....My Inspiration

Sad to hear my Shero Mia Amber passed May 10,2011. She had a huge impact on the plus size community and one of the reasons why I strive to be a plus size model. When I seen her strut her stuff, it was like I seen myself.

Nothing has been confirmed but the coroner voiced that Mia might of died from a blood clot related to the knee surgery. Whatever the case, she will be greatly missed and never ever forgotten

Can You Say "Killing Em"

omg i wish i could bet niggas heads in with these studded booties but i cant afford $3,000 shoes. They beating niggas heads in foreal and im sure you can really kill someone with these joints! The town aint even worthy of me breaking my pockets for these so ill just carry on with my night...

Adele

Shes pretty dope...looking fw to see how far she'll go and will she loose her pleasantly plump curves for the Hollywood life. I hope not. Shes such a doll and her music is so soulful. I love it! Rockin my Adele station now on my Pandora

My New Loves♥

I love my new nephews Noah aka NoNo and Carson who as of not yet to receive a nickname lol. They are my world...I cant wait to see if they will be bff or enemies. Whatever happens, their cousins and stuck together FOREVER♥

Birds of A Feather Earrings

Its great to see the things that run through my mind come to life. Ive been dying to wear some fly feather earrings but I haven't found any in my price range so one day some time ago I bought a bunch of vibrant colored feathers and on one bored night I made a bunch of earring designs. It feels great to sale something you believe in and adore. Its no better feeling to create something and other people think its great. I sale my designs from $5 to $15 dollars usually. Very reasonable. I have a certified paypal account under supanova_1985@yahoo.com so holla at me if you want a pair or would like me to design you an original pair. I also have many designs on my facebook page under aspen's closet!

Theophilus London Is My New Crush

So hes not really cute I know BUT..his swag yall! I love his swaggggg! Hes like a breath of fresh air because he pushes the envelope and hes different. And please believe I can go for some different right about now. All these lames dress the same when this is the era of change. Just about anything can be rocked right now. The 40s, 50s, 70s and 90s is back and people still look stuck on stupid. But I guess thats why London stands out. Not everybody can be a fashion icon I guess which is fine. Oh yeah...hes music GO! I think if he links up with kanye they could make MAGIC *_*

My Crush Of The Day

I absolutely love Jeffrey Campbell shoes! But I will say I am guilty of buying knock offs that they sale in other stores like forever 21....I mean do you wanna pay $150 or better or $30 bucks.Come on, not much to think about lol.Im a diva on a budget but I still rightfully love a great shoe and Jeffrey Campbell Slash TK pictured here are just marvelous. They look like hooker boots but I would still wear em with an all black hooker outfit hehe.

Ne-Yo ft. Fabolous - Crazy Love

My absolute favorite entertainer!

Who Is Maya Songbird?!?!?

Aspen~ Who is Maya Songbird

Maya~ Im an artist, Mom, perceptionist, non Shucking n jiver, and a Unicorn on weekends.I am a singer/songwriter. I am awesome. I am here to emancipate the world through music. There's two answers because i know your a Gemini.

Aspen~ Thank you...and please believe there is definitely two sides to me. But enough about me. Whats your best role?

Maya~ Well I have been told Singing and nothing else...lol. But i feel I can drive pretty well. I have a cool fashion sense and that I am comfortable in my skin..

Aspen~ How long have you been singing?

Maya~ Since 4...I was in my first musical at church. I played Miriam and had a little tambourine. From what I am told. Then I sang in Elementary school and sang in the church. Sang at little venues in San Francisco. I have always been singing...Im singing now!!! I am literally recording a song...lol right now!

Aspen~ What is inspiring you to sing right now?

Maya~ The fact that I never want to sit in a box again. If I cant have the right to be who I am and enjoy my life!!! That and my son who needs socks!

Aspen~ I remember when I first met you at your place in Oakland. We was singing karaoke. We all thought you were an amazing singer but you seemed to be shy about it. What changed?

Maya~ I wasn't really shy about it. I just hadn't found my place in music. I was getting bored. I felt uninspired. I felt that I lived in a world that told me because of how I looked it would never happen. And then I took a chance and said fuck it all. Took a risk and was for once NOT afraid to fall...That and i went crazy and colored my hair two toned, Knowing I would never get a job...lol and then I found my direction. I am now comfortable at what I do. I am no longer bored I am intrigued. Life is sweet. Im going to sing until I cant anymore...

Aspen~ Ok so let me ask you the general interview question: Where do you see yourself in 5 years?

Maya~ In five years-hopefully with some money. Nobody likes a broke singer with two toned hair lol. By then I would have had two successful albums.

Aspen~ How would you describe your fashion sense?

Maya~ Well today for the first time I tried a new technique. I have a hanger on the back of my door, so I totally pieced my hot outfit I wore tonight by laying it out horizontally? or vertical. But I would say my fashion sense is based on me being narcissistic. I know my body. I know my shape. I know what fits and what makes me look like a whale. I am vintage lover. I have an addiction. Just because it says small does not mean a big girl cant rock it. You can take it and make it work for you!

Aspen~ If you had your own clothing line what would it be called and why?

Maya~ Well I have a store right now online that is called P.O.P. (power of plus) Vintage.Im open to a clothing line...that would be so crazy yo..I definitely want to change plus size fashion. Shake it up.(saying in 3rd person) Yeah you big girl! You look great in that Euro Stretch Mini!!!! and that see through top!!!

Aspen~ Do you have a favorite fashion Icon you look for for inspiration?

Maya~ I really dont. I just see it and conquer it although I do love the mary jane girls look. I love the punk rock scene. But i also love the 40s look as well as some 60s dresses.

Aspen~ Well lets talk more about the music. Who did you grow up listening to and do you have an all time favorite song or artist?

Maya~ I love everything but the girl. I fail in love with them in the 90s. Yes aspen I am old lol. Man, their music is amazing and for some periods in my life i felt their songs were written just for me. Ooh I also love Alanis Morisette, No Doubt, The Gossip, Siouxsie and the banshees, Mary jane girls, and phyllis hyman. Gosh I wish I can name more but the list would go on forever and ever!

Aspen~ How would you describe your music?

Maya~ Its passionate. I have a heart on my shoulder. Its a birthmark and its upside down. Its a creative outburst. I have been writing lyrics for days Son! Years! Its revolutionary music...Its love from me to you and the world. And its house dance.

Aspen~ What kind of audience do you attract?

Maya~ Pretty much anyone who hears my voice is a fan. I attract anyone who is into wanting to dance their cares away. Put me in...I am your girl....and DANCE!

Aspen~ Do you have a favorite dance?

Maya~ Everybody knows Maya Songbird likes to pop her coochie lol! Yeah buddy!!! I pop my coochie hey..and do a little two step.

Aspen~lmao oh boy!*in my jazzie pha voice*

Maya~ I think every big girl should be able to get on the dance floor and turn it out!! Rhythm is not needed. Pop it ladies! Show the world your confidence.

Aspen~ Okay last but certainly not least. What message do you want to spread across the land? What should everybody and they momma know about Maya Songbird?

Maya~ The main message is that I am having a fundraiser on kickstarter.com to raise money to fund my Album "Castro Kid" and I totally have 10 days to reach my goal. I currently have 32 backers and we have raised $1840... the goal is $5000..Please check out my project people and that I am changing the music game tremendously. Be apart of the movement. You know Maya Songbird! You have heard of me :):)
Everybody and their momma should know that they know Maya Songbird and they have heard of me. Here is my kickstarter link www.kickstarter.com/profil/ilovemayasongbird

Aspen~ Thank u hunz....your AMAZING but Im sure you already know...just gotta remind you if u forgot!

Maya~ Thank You!!!

My crush of the day are Nikes. Who would of guessed. These joints are solid! I love them. These are the not yet released Nike Gladiator shoes. They come in an assortment of colors. Will be coping them for the summer time!

Basketball Wives Are a bunch of Losers

Where to begin.First of all aint none of em wives except Jennifer which should have been divorced a year in a half ago claims her husband. I mean duh trick! He don't wanna be with you and if u had something going on in your life u would let the man be but u trynna hold on to the money.She couldnt even say the word divorce but had the nerve to complain about the relationship. Stop complaining and do somethin about it! She should be so ashamed of herself.

Then theres Royce.Lord if somebody dont hurry up and get her butt a stylist idk what imma do!She dress like a kid from the late 90's.And she brought her lil whorebag friends to the lunch date Suzie invited her to.Shes not a real friend so why is Suzie latching on to her? LOSER...thats why and the dude must of been using her for publicity cuz her bawd spot having self is ugly with that big ol lispe.

And on to Shaunne.She needs to get a life.How u gonna talk about Gloria when ur a has been wife.Get a husband or keep a husband and then maybe u can judge other ppl.Like, what gives you the right! And who goes out they way to confront someone they dont like. So what u dont like her!Move on and grow up. I hope Ashley eventually whoop em all really. She seems like the type lol.

My Crush of the day

I absolutely love this cover! Rick lookin real presidential and Wiz lookin better anyways lol. I love bigger men and Rick is lookin real scrumptious on this cover. #SWAGG

My First Sewn Dress

How could I forget to post my dress I made in school. This was my final for my sewing class. First of all, I spent long nights making this dress with the help of my mother and it came out nice for a first timer. It might look easy to you but believe me it was so hard. I had to add lining on the inside so that itself made it 2 dresses in 1 really. Well anyways, this my first dress and I'm proud of myself and cant wait to see what Ill be making next semester.

My Crush Of The Day

This necklace is BOMB.COM because you can wear it with an all black outfit or a more so "flashy" outfit. Its very versatile. Young and old people can wear it and look age appropriate. Im wearing it with a scarf I bought from Forever 21. The gold chain necklace itself is from www.mypaisleyboutique.com with very affordable prices. This boutique has exclusive jewelry that you may not see in stores and beautiful, quality garments for full figured women. I advise all to make an appointment to see all the great items she has and tell her Aspen sent ya!

Taking The Fall For A Friend/Family

I hear a lot of people say they would or wish they could of taken the bullet for a passed relative or friend. I know this remark comes from anger and frustration. But really who wants to die?! And who would really trade their life for someones who has died?! To do that, well for most, that would be missing out on your blessings you receive in life....seeing your kids grow up, enjoying certain events, furthering a career or schooling, finding a mate and making new acquaintances and etc. Would you really trade all of this for someone even if you love them?

I know for me I would say no for the most part. I love my life and the only people I would give it up for is for my niece and my nephews because they haven't lived a full life. I haven't either but when it comes to them, my life doesn't matter. This life is only temporary anyways. When I look into my lil nephews eyes I imagine what they will grow to be and I truly look forward to seeing them grow older, even if it means my life.

My Crush Of The Day

So these are soooo flippin cute! I have to cop these soon before everybody else makes them. Their so cute Im not gonna tell anyone where to get them.I have to be the 1st to break these mugs in ya dig!

My Crush Of The Day

I have no clue who made these joints or where to buy them but they are slammin! Very chic and you can wear these with the whackest/plainest piece of clothing and still look pretty smashing. These are my crush of the day hands down!

I ♥ Fashion

This is me and my lady....I dress her every Tuesday and last Tuesday I made my first outfit, not the teachers and it came out pretty well. I only had an hour to do it so I couldnt really challenge myself and create something extravagant. But Im still proud of what I made and I can see the progress that Im making. Soon my dreams will be reality!

My Crush of the day

My Crush of the day is brought to you by meeeee! I love this black blazer I got from Torrid. My new love is thrift shopping.I picked this 4 finger ring up from cross roads in BTown and the Lady GaGa glasses was a steal from the Buffalo Exchange. Lets not forget the leather bow at the end of my ponytail. A lil something from H&M. Pretty tight yo! Well I luv it *shrugs*

My Crush of the day

What can I say. Im googoo for gaga....her style is crazy yet I love it! She's her own person and you cant fault her for it. I dont totally agree with all her wardrobe decisions but I respect em. She definitely blown Madonna out the water!

Jersey Shore Gets 2 Much Play

TEE SHIRT TIIIIIIIME! Besides the point that I absolutely adore Pauly...I flippin hate the rest of em with a passion! They get all this $$$$ to be their ratchet selves. I mean, I cant knock the hustle! I wish a mofo would pay me to be me. But this jersey shore crap is gettin outta hand big time! They actually have costumes for the characters this Halloween season (which is fitting for Snooki's hair poof) I dont even wanna see what jay wow costume looks like sheesh. Next thing you know they'll be selling the fist pump game on Wii and slutty barbie dolls for them. Ughhh....someone please stop the madness!

My Crush of the day

These are Shuella Boots from Target or Tarjay what most of you call them lol. They are so fly to me. They are used to put over your heels and when you dont need it anymore you can can put it back in a small compact bag. They come in a assortment of colors pink of course, green, yellow, black ect. They are sold out but will be back online soon. You dont have to wear the lil girl boots in the rain anymore. If you like to feel sexy in your heels, cop these. These are the ones for YOU!

My Crush of the day

I love this look!It made me think of Lady GaGa....real edgy like. Its the Shimmer Rossette 1 Shoulder Dress from Sizes To Fit. A Fatshionista would look super dupper fly in this lil number!

My Crush of the day

My girl Jas is very innovative when it comes to fashion. Very fashion forward and she stands out in a crowd no matter the occasion. I love this look and its a 1 of a kind. Very retro but relevant to todays trends. She is my fashion crush of the day

Am I Going To Have Kids

Kids are a blessing indeed for most but maybe a malediction for others....you know who Im talking about when I say malediction. Those parents who half watch their kids and always got them with a baby sitter most of their lives smh.Yeah they shouldnt of received that "blessing"

I although know they are blessings, I have decided to do w/out that particular blessing. Im not really a kid friendly person. I do however love most of my friends and family kids tho.I know you caught that word most lol.But its true. And Im very excited to receive 2 new nephews this year and Ill be acting like their mines in the public eye but like I said I dont want any for myself and it boggles my mind when people ask me when am I gonna have some and not even ask when am I gonna get married. I guess people dont get married first anymore geesh.

Growing up, I always said I wanted a boy and a girl but it was for superficial reasons. Now that Im older and wiser,I would say, I dont want to be like most people and have a child. And theres nothing wrong with that! So get over it people and stop asking me when Imma have a kid. Please and Thank you in advance.

My Crush of the day

Oh how I love theee....these are Jesenia Fringe Pumps made by Messeca and you can buy them from ShopNastyGal.com I think I may attempt to make some

Cartoons are so different from when I was growing up

So turning on my tv a cartoon called Fetch with Ruff Ruffman on KQED was on and the main character which is a dog says that he got fired for being a dog and he needs his job back so he can take his gf out on a date.WTF u might say!Why is that on a cartoon?Its harmless I know but why would that content be on a show for kids and on KQED at that?!

I grew up with KQED and all the kid shows were educational. So I sat there waiting for when the education would kick in and it did.It was whack though.They found out pineapples float and put it underneath the dog house so it can be a boat. So whack! But also the dogs mom was selling his items on ebay so he could take the trip on the boat. Oh let me not forget he has a reality show but he needs his other job back. WTH YO!

I guess cartoons change with the times. Maybe the cartoons deal with adult situations because kids grow up so fast nowadays. I dont really know but KQED is definitely off the chain nowadays for having such a cartoon. SMH

My Crush of the day

I have the HUGEST CRUSH thats been in my life since I can remember...His name? Fashion! Every week Ill hit you with a new flava and whats hot to me.This week is ASOS red skirt.This can be worn to a wedding,club,religious service or even out for dinner.

Pursue Your Dreams & Make It A Reality

There are soooo many things I wanna pursue in my life and I truly believe that sky's is the limit and your life is truly what YOU make it. Forever Ive been dreaming of being a fashion buyer, a designer and a professional stylist to the stars. Why cant I be those things?!?! My family thinks Im wasting my time going to school to pursue that career. They think I should be a Nurse (so typical). But thing is I went to Nursing school and dropped out because it just didnt keep my interest and I didnt have the drive to finish school or even to do the work. I don't like the feeling of being a drop out but at the same time I dont care. Its not my passion.

Rappers, singers, producers, business mobiles dont start off big. They start with a dream of making it big and they put forth the effort to do what they wanna do and become who they wanna be. Why cant that be my story?! I believe if you have the drive and put forth genuine commitment to your craft, anything is possible.

I dont wanna be working just to support myself and get by the rest of my life. That would be just living my life in vain. Ill leave the 9 to 5 for people who don't have a drive to become who they want to be in life. Im not bashing them cause thats all Ive been doing all my days of working, just to get by. But the world is yours and everything in it and Im ready for my piece of the pie and I'm not going to let ANYONE discourage me from taking a bite.

I want to FORGIVE you and FORGET you

When reflecting on what I went thru last night, a famous quote from my girl Lauren Conrad came to mind...I want to forgive and forget you. Im sooo feeling the forget u part more so then the forgive cuz in my heart I forgave him and anyone else who has done me wrong.

Last night I came to realize that I cant make sacrifices when it comes to the matters of the heart. I have a close friend who knows what she wants (although at times she seems to be a bit shallow)and she doesnt compromise when it comes to dating.I mean... I know what I want but I find myself many of times letting dudes slide on things that I find to be a necessity. And thats where I go wrong!

In your heart YOU KNOW what you want in a man and shallow or not, stick with it cuz in the end, if it doesnt work out,you'll have a big regret of wasting ur time and energy on BS. You'll also feel like a loser if you dealing with a guy that doesnt compliment your swag. So imma get pass this feeling and stop ignoring that little loud voice in the back of my head called a conscience because I dont wanna have to second guess myself about this again. Peace
