Each Christmas season, I like to kick off the holidays with a new CD. This year is absolutely no different. What’s playing in The Broke Socialite Headquarters? Cee-Lo Green’s Cee-Lo’s Magic Moment for sure! You may know Cee-Lo as a judge on NBC’s The Voice or, if you’re a hip hop head, you will remember him as a fraction of [...]
It’s rare that Mr The Broke Socialite and I venture beyond the walls of our castle on school nights aka weeknights. We have our routines and being creatures of habit (and sorta boring…in a cool people kind of way…ha!), we like to stick with them. As we were on the cusp of celebrating our twelfth wedding anniversary, we decided to [...]
This year? Been a bitch. I lost my mom and watched her suffer from the dreadful breast cancer. The good news? I am still here. The better news? I strive for normalcy again. Whatever that is now… The best news? I am loved. By God. By family. By friends. Truth be told? I REALLY miss blogging, writing and sharing. ‘Twas [...]
Alas, this is my final blog post of the summer as the TBS Intern. My time this summer working with Shameeka has been so wonderful and enriching; I’m sad it’s over! My final three favorite things of the summer reflect my excitement about getting back to the grind at school, though they are certainly all great products for day to [...]
Frat Collection Tee’s. If you couldn’t tell last week, I am the queen of casual. I seriously do everything possible to dress as casually and comfortably as possible while still looking cute. With fall right around the corner, it has become a slight craze among my sorority sisters to wear these Frat Collection tees. Pick a pocket, match it with [...]
My Favorite Meal. I landed a part-time nannying job this summer where I have to cook dinner each night. Little did I know, making a meal for a family of 5 without getting too repetitive is no easy feat. So, this week, I am going to share with you my favorite meal to make (and their favorite meal to eat!). [...]
1. Olympics Party. A few weeks ago, I wrote about watching the Olympic trials on NBC. Well, it’s FINALLY time for the real thing which is the perfect excuse to throw a party! Whether you host it during the opening ceremony tomorrow or at any other point during the two week span, here are some tips for throwing a fantastic [...]
My three favorites are a trio of products and events that have made this past week fabulous. 1. Longchamp Le Pliage. It just so happens, that I have been lusting after all of my friends’ Longchamp Le Pliage bags for a couple months now. They are the beyond adorable alternative to laptop carriers, diaper bags, and purses in general. Now, [...]
In the wake of the 4th of July (my most favorite of all holidays), I feel slightly drained of summer excitement. Here are a few things that can help rejuvenate the rest of this season of heat and sunshine for you. 1. Double Crunch Honey Garlic Chicken Breasts. My family of 5 and our dog have spent the past year [...]
1. Olympic Trials. It’s official. We’re less than a month from the grandest sporting extravaganza in the world, the 2012 London Olympics. I don’t know about y’all, but I cannot wait to cheer on America in every sport from tennis to track, water polo to weightlifting. The Olympics is one of the upmost unifying and uplifting events. Why not kick [...]

One of the things that I’ve enjoyed most recently about The Broke Socialite is the dawn of the Sugar Coma series. If y’all will remember, it’s a dessert crawl that started here in Atlanta about a year ago that I’ ve now decided to take *drum rolls, please* NATIONWIDE! Yes. My team and I have identified nearly 40 major markets [...]
Image: Good Enough Mother Blog A little over a year ago, I had the pleasure of meeting Rene Syler. You’ll likely remember her name from her stint as one of the lead anchors on CBS’ The Early Show. She and I hit it off almost immediately and have been joined at the virtual hip; she’s stuck with me now! Rene [...]
