Hi Party people!
We wrap up another awesome (but super busy) week. No matter how much you can squeeze into a day there are never enough hours. In the mix of being busy with projects and plotting, I have to figure out a way to get back into the swing of things with dance and fitness classes. I took a full week off from classes and getting back into the habit is pretty rough.
I hope everyone’s week was just as eventful, full of love, cookies, and wishes (on 12.12.12.). Without any further wait, here is my Sprinkles vs Sparkles.
Sprinkles
♡ If you’re the same amount of lush that I am, this site will be helpful for figuring out what to drink when you listen to your favorite jams.
♡ Kayla’s zit post had me in stitches. LOVE!
♡ Smelling like a Snow Fairy.
♡ Discovering Ashley Nell Tipton and her amazing collection.
Sparkles
♡ I am a proud contributor on Black Girl Nerds. ♡ I also did a guest post on the love KV’s Confessions blog. Check it out and you might win something. Seriously, you might. ♡ I had deep conversations with friends about life and love. ♡ Going to see !!! (chk chk chk) in Brooklyn last night. ♡ Making cool new friends. ♡ Military jackets and glitter clutches.
As I am writing this post, I found it rather difficult due to recent events taking place today. I live in Connecticut and there has been a shooting at a elementary school and the news is completely shattering my heart. I will leave you guys on this note, love one another. More than ever. We shouldn’t have to have something horrible happen to realize who we love, how to treat one another, or to show love. We can’t take our lives and what we have for granted and this is something we should have in our heart daily. I hope what I was able to post has brought a little happy to your heart today.
Something that I was taught earlier this week is that evil isn’t natural, everything is created in love. Sadly, that love can be lost along the way…always choose love.
Sending much love and blessings into the world,
Latanya Rene ❤

Yum! I’ll have to give that one a try. Stay beautiful and lovely. <3
I’m crying at my desk at work watching the news on the shooting and then clicked on over to Bloglovin to try to transition to a less traumatic lunch break and this post is the first I see. Thank you for your words!
I can not even express out much my heart is bleeding right now. I’m full of tears, rage, sadness, confusion, and most of all hope. It’s all we can do in situations like this. Keep love and hope with us.
Thinking about this leaves me completely breathless but we have to seriously ACTUALLY do something about it. Whether it be getting those that need help, help or cracking down on what needs to take place for safety. It’s just sad that it has had to come to this. How many more times can we allow this to happen? What are we doing wrong?
These are forces that are out of our control but also within our control. It’s complex and not easy but the world has to be willing to share love and be at peace.
Sorry for the rant, but it’s an over emotional day. Stay lovely, eat some cookies, and hug a loved one.
