Single Ladies:The Lady And The Tramp

"All the single ladies,all my single ladies,all the single ladies....put your hands up...'',ladieees!*wave*I am back.Yes Lady E,your guide in our quest for Mr Put-A-Ring-On-It.
I think as we have been going through this series,we are learning a thing or two about our potentials and ourselves.'Charity begins at home',a cliche saying but I believe that if we take care of ourselves,in terms of personality and grooming,those church bells are not so far-fetched from ringing.(Don't you just love the sound of the word ''ring''?).

Today,we are going to get groomed.If you recall the article where we asked the gentlemen out there what they defined as wifey material.I think we need to clarify this because we just might hit the jackpot,if we take appropriate measures.

We discussed the issue of appearance versus perception,where Mr Put-A-Ring-On-It might have the wrong perception of single lady because she might not meet ''wifey'' expectations.So here is the deal,we do not want to give false impressions but we need to fall into the right category.We are going to separate the lady from the tramp.(Yes I said it).

Lady.Definition:a well groomed woman,with refined mannerisms:and is either from an aristocratic background,or is socialized into this culture.Tramp,now y'all don't want me to go me to go there,but the subtle synonyms are:harlot,prostitute,...and we go on.So,Mr Put-A-Ring-On-It meets single lady in a club,in an LBD. From head to toe what does her outfit shout out,a)Take me home because i am a....,or,b)I am just here to hangout with my girls but I have an 11 o'clock curfew,(self imposed of course).

Yes ladies,hair,dress and make-up are essential.There is a difference between looking like a drag queen and looking like a 'queen'.There is also a difference between dressing sexy and skanky. And then when it comes to manners and public behaviour,please,please,ladies do not open bottle caps with their teeth,(no matter which part of town you come from),ladies do not run even when late, do not shout across the room, or road, do not dance like they have a pole in the middle street,(the pole dancing is for your personal space...personal).I could go on,and on..but you will have to read my full blog.

At the end of the day,ladies,we need to be the type of women that Mr Put-A-Ring-On-It can be intrigued by,and also would want to call,''wife''.So ladies,self assertion,when you are in public,what you post on your social media pages, what are you portraying? The lady or the tramp?

*Beyonce wave*Ladies....

P.S: Always write your own love story.

Ciao!

Lady E

Pendulum...Time to Stop Swinging!

At that very moment you actually receive that closure that it's finally over... You lay there, with a sigh of  relief because it was good whilst it lasted, but you are glad that it's over. There are certain things that you begin to intuitively feel and understand as you grow older or wiser. You move out of naivety or ideologies of the perfect relationship. You get to a place of realising that some relationships have good parts but don't last. And there are other bad relationships where the only thing that holds you together, is what's in between the sheets. During a conversation with a friend, I asked him for his opinion about a relationship. His view of my 'situation' was that I was like a pendulum. It was a constant back and forth with this guy which in psychology is considered 'toxic'. My friend gave me advice athat I need to respect myself enough to demand stability from a relationship. The guy who comes into my life must anchor himself and...

The Thin Line

'Because he is a very good....', oh no uncle, let us not even go there. Now I understand some of the things DMX was talking about in his poem,'The Industry'. I guess it is the same everywhere around the world. Cut throat! It is one thing to be talented,and it is another to have your talent(s) exposed and making something of yourself.As an individual,you want to pursue something that you are passionate about;you are very good at,and probably you have theoretical knowledge of it and make something out it. (Earn a living). You also want to be taken seriously,earn and commend respect from different people.That is when one learns about professionalism. Professionalism according to the Oxford dictionary,it is the competence or skill expected of a professional.In another definition, it is the conduct,aims,or qualities that characterize or mark a profession or a professional person.And my definition. Professionalism is that thin line between having to suck up to or tole...

Script My life: Brown Sugar

"Girl.He's a lil brownsugar!",a friend of mine said.Hey girl,you know me,I have got a sweet tooth.Brown sugar.Raw,sweet,gorgeously brown.I love brown sugar.Talking about brown sugar,today's MPV is about "brown sugar". I always say that life is not a movie,but truth be told,if there is one movie that is close to reality,to be specific,my life, is my favourite movie "Brown Sugar".Y'all must have watched this epic black movie about two friends who fell in love with hip-hop and each other.With a great cast including Sanaa Lathan,as Sydney Shaw,the gorgeous Taye Diggs as Andre 'Dre' Ellis,Mos Def(whose music I was listening to this morning),the talented female MC,Queen Latifah,caramel adonis Boris Kodjoe and the beautiful Nicole Ari Parker,(who is defined in the movie as ''brown sugar''). According to the movie,brown sugar means,"You know we all lookin for wifen material.A woman that's fine,smart,classy but not a sno...

Dirty Laundry Diaries: Last Friday Night...

Last Friday Night... After a long hiatus from this blog, I've decided to make my return but this time with a vengeance...lol! So as part of my comeback, my blog has changed slightly a bit, same girl but different ish! (The vocabulary has become very colorful!) So my weekend was too cold to freeze a.k.a chilled for my liking but I managed to get the amount of rest that my weary body deserved. So what happened last Friday night, other than playing the third wheel with my sister and her man? Nothing much! But in line with the title of today's blog, I'll share what happened the last Friday of the last. These days I have ditched friends and have gone all family and that is how I roll. So my best friend who happens to be my younger sister, went out for our Friday drinks at our favourite spot in town. (Totally love the ambiance and the deejays are quite cute-one being hotter than the other and they play an amazing set of deep house music). Before I go on, t...

How I Met Your Father

Always write your own love story... So here I am painting my story on a canvas. Today I decided to do something slightly different. While I binge-watched the entire first season of "How I Met Your Father," something dawned on me. As a fan of the original "How I Met Your Mother," I was curious if the spin-off would match up. The series stars Hilary Duff, Christopher Lowell, Francia Raisa, Suraj Sharma, Tom Ainsley, Tien Tran, and Kim Cattrall. Cattrall plays the 2050 version of the protagonist and narrator, Sophie. She recounts to her unseen son the events that followed meeting his father in January 2022 and how they ultimately had him. Fans are shown Sophie, played by Hillary Duff, and her group of friends in New York City's Manhattan. The 10-episode series shows how these 20- and 30-somethings maneuver through their disastrous dating lives, assumedly post-pandemic. Here I am, using my imagination to create universe versions of "how I met your father."...
