Best 10 Minute Workout For Fabulous Arms…

In Musings While On Hiatus on July 22, 2013 at 1:49 pm

Michelle-Obama

There’s nothing sexier, than beautifully toned arms in a gorgeous summer dress.  Looking for Michelle Obama’s arms?  Here’s a workout from PopSugar Fitness, I’ve been incorporating into my daily routine for a while now {I do these every morning and evening}, and thought it would be great to share this video with you.  As a bonus, with this particular work out, you’re also toning your core, so you’re getting two for one in 10 minutes {flat tummy anyone!}. I love PopSugar work outs, they are tailored especially for woman, and you truly do get great results, without bulking up; toned is sexy!

Aren’t you worth 10 minutes?

Nelson-Mandela

It’s days like today, that I wish I still lived in New York.  From July 15th-20th, The Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, located in Harlem, NY, will mark Nelson Mandela’s 95th birthday, with six days of commemoration.  On display, will be the Center’s extensive collections of photographs, posters, videos and unique documents, highlighting Mandela’s journey from political activist to President of South Africa.

Join the Schomburg Center and the global community in paying homage to a man who inspired many worldwide, to make the world a better place.  Visit Mandeladay.com for more information.

Happy Birthday Nelson Mandela!

Monday Love…

Happy Monday

Hi Darlings! Aren’t you happy that Monday is here again?  It’s a new week to start over, complete what you started last week, to begin anew.  Don’t look at Monday as a downer, look at it as a bright and shiny new beginning.

The above photograph was taken by me, of the much underrated Carnation. The Carnation is inexpensive and easy to come by, and is mocked for her cheapness.  But one thing about this beautiful flower, is she’s more hearty than the other more expensive flora we like to buy {you can easily get 10 or more days out of her}, available year round, and comes in an array of colours, which compliments any décor.  Just because she’s cheap, doesn’t mean she’s not beautiful♥

Dreaming of Louboutins…

Louboutins Winter 2013As I was cruising and dreaming through the Saks Fifth Avenue website, I came across these gorgeous Louboutin booties. This is one of the things you do when on hiatus, dream of beautiful things for Autumn/Winter 2013. Click on the image to be taken to the Saks website, to view more of this gorgeous item.

I forgot to mention in my last post, that even though I will not be blogging much this summer, you can still find me on Instagram and Pinterest, both under the user name @Maylana, and of course Facebook and Twitter both under the user name @maylanascloset. 

I’d love it if you clicked the “Like” button if you do stop by my Facebook page.

Have yourselves a beautiful and sun filled day!

A Chic Little Break To Bring You Something More…

In Daily Musings on June 25, 2013 at 8:03 am

 

HiatusWell Darlings, I’ve decided to take some much-needed, quality time out for myself.  The last few months have been challenging and a major eye opener.  Life has been put into full perspective! The most important thing is, once again,  I’ve learned some truly valuable life lessons, which I know will take me further than I’ve ever been before.

I plan to take the blog “Maylana’s Closet” in a new direction on a self-hosting platform, with exciting content, new layout features, and a slightly different name, a complete revamp.  I plan to keep you in the loop as each change occurs.  I’ve learned in life, if you’re going to do something, do it well!  This new turn will be the next chapter of the Maylana’s Closet’s empire.

I want to thank all of my fabulous followers, who follow me everyday, and the lovely new followers I’ve gained in the last few weeks. I’m truly blessed that you’ve followed and continued to read my published content on a daily basis.  This blog has gone further, then I ever dreamed it would, and I intend to bring you even more.  I plan to return to blogging by the end of the summer, but I’m hoping that before the end of 2013, my new direction and all of its transitions will be fully completed.   Please stay tuned!!

During this fabulous summer we’re about to have, I will continue to publish random posts {as I can never completely stop writing and showing you beautiful things!}, as well as republishing content from my archives; but I do intend to fully relish in this much-needed time off, in order to bring you something EXTRAORDINARY!

Have an amazing time this summer season, lots of sun, lots of cocktails, and of course, lots of gorgeous clothes and shoes!

More importantly…  Do You!
