Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen.  For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. (NIV) with LOVE, Kiah

Hey Divas,  Let me start by saying that I'm no expert but I have studied the subject of color a bit. Color turns an outfit from drab to fab! My study of color began after my husband and I purchased our first home. I wanted my home to be beautiful and I really got into interior design.

The primary colors are Red, yellow and blue. When you mix the primary colors together you come up with secondary colors . Red+yellow=orange, blue+yellow=green, red+blue=purple. Tertiary colors are made when primary colors

Hey Dolls, I would say that my last couple of days in NYC were my best! I got to spend some sweet time with fellow plus bloggers Alissa of the blog Stylish Curves and Chastity of the blog GarnerStyle/The Curvy Girl Guide .
