My First Trinidad & Tobago Carnival Experience & TIPS

Play mas in Trinidad & Tobago’s Carnival: check. 

This year, I got the opportunity to work with Passion Carnival to have a full on Carnival experience. I had no idea what to expect on the road for Carnival Monday & Tuesday but I was definitely up for experiencing what they call “the greatest show on earth”. P.S. if you’re not sure what Carnival is, you can read more about it here or here.

How to be More Organized-Do’s & Dont’s

Organization and being organized is something that I always struggled with. I’m the kinda gal who’s really organized on paper but in real life (hello #planneraddict), my desk is mess and things are ALL over the place. I can tell you everything you need to know about planning 101 and how to use a planner and get everything done. But when it comes to keeping my vanity clean for ONE day- it’s a disaster. Like honestly when you’re beating your face, how tf are you supposed to put everything back as you use it. Am I right or am I right? 

I finally came to the conclusion that I just need to put certain things into practice in order for me to actually be more organized in life – not just in my mind or my planner. 

P.S. are you following me on instagram & twitter? You totally should anddddd snapchat (itsroxyjames)- just because I put my cute snapcode in the sidebar of my blog.

Sexy Red Valentine’s Day Sugar Cookies

I love anything red and with a hint of spice- especially for Valentine’s Day. These sugar cookies are a perfect yummy treat because it’s so simple to make. I’m sure you have a sugar cookie recipe that you use already. So the secret is to just add a few drops of (drum roll please) red food colouring to give you a marbled effect or a sexy red colour throughout the cookie. My next big secret is to add a sprinkle of cinnamon & nutmeg to any recipe you have. It instantly kicks everything up a notch and trust me, everyone enjoys that unexpected surprise. 

P.S. are you following me @itsroxyjames on instagram, twitter & snapchat (my snapcode is on the right side bar). I always share the first sneak peaks of everything on these!

How to have Alone Time- and love it

Some people tend to have a fear of being alone and it’s more common than you think. People can associate being alone as a negative thing and some think that they will be judged negatively for being alone. It’s quite common that people are ashamed of being alone can since it can appear to be a sign of having no friends, or no life. But tbh, the people who say those negative things actually tend to be the ones who are most afraid of being alone and having alone time. Being/wanting to be alone is not at all the same thing as being lonely.
