Click image to see Grace Jones perform Slave To The Rhythm ~ Hula Hoop and all at Buckingham Palace!

This is who I want to be when I grow up to be 64 years old!! My sister called me from London and alerted me to Grace Jones‘ Slave To the Rhythm performance at Buckingham Place for Queen Elizabeth’s Diamond Jubilee… Wow!! There is no one more fabulous than Ms. Jones. Grace appears on stage with a hula hoop by her side, then proceeds to hula hoop through the entire song! She Hula Hoops!!!! Check out Grace’s legs!!!

Grace makes me proud to be a British Born Jamaican!! As my sister says “She is a bad gyal” (in Jamaican dialect). At 64 Grace is still the rocking Glamazon she’s always been.

Big up Ms. Jones! Yes we love the rhythm!

Enjoy the video!

I hope you all had a fantastic weekend. I certainly did. I attended the fabulous launch of Genties Bow Ties, designed by Antoine. It truly was colourful event, held on the roof top of Ozio’s Wine & Cigar Bar, beautiful weather and beautiful people. Watch out for my blog post on Genties within the next few days.

The butterflies above contain a small gift for you to print, courtesy of Mazhar at www.smediawork.wordpress.com. I found his inspiring to-do list posted on his blog a few days ago, and was so motivated by it, that I decided to pretty it up in Word, and gift it to you. I’m hoping that you will print it and pin it up in your office/cubicle/home as a constant reminder.

Read your list daily ~ Act~ Create~ Be.

Love & Light to you!

I thought this was cute… Enjoy!

Here’s one of my favourite old school tracks to get your Monday going. Music of Life: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7BM4zolAqY Enjoy!

I’m proud to be British!!

Well we’ve survived the short week, and it was a hectic and productive one for me; I hope it was a good week for you too. My family in England will be having their own 4 day weekend due to celebrating Queen Elizabeth’s Diamond Jubilee, Monday and Tuesday.

Queen Elizabeth has been on the throne for 60 years!!! Poor Prince Charles might not be sitting on the throne anytime soon. Ms. Queen does not seem to be going anywhere. I remember the celebrations for the Silver Jubilee 25 years ago; I hadn’t yet moved to the U.S. I know there’ll be lots of partying and waving the good old Union Jack. Have a drink for me fam… Cheers!
