A few days ago I heard there was a fashion show going on at Saint Peter’s University, now since fashion in Jersey City is right up my alley I was holding out to hear when they were selling tickets. Well, apparently this show was not open to the public so of course being the obnoxious […]

ChicpeaTV: Blogging with The Grey Layers
I can’t believe we are almost at the end of season 2! Hope everyone has been enjoying our episodes so far, they really are a fruit of hard labor but they are so much fun. I met Jeanne aka “The Grey Layers” almost a year ago when I interviewed her for a “stylish peep” post. […]
EP Review: Victory Dance – The Spectrum
Recently I’ve been a bit starved for new music. Now, I’m not saying all music released recently has been bad but nothing has particularly caught my ear.

Makeup Tutorial: Overdrawn Lips
Plump lips have always been desirable, but it seems that lip fillers are more popular than ever lately. I for one am all about bigger lips…but I also don’t really want to spend the money on the upkeep of injections. So if you are like me and would rather spend your money on things like […]

Delta Storage

April is National STD Awareness Month: Charles Gets Tested at Project LOL!
Sex and hooking up are both so easily accessible these days. With apps such as Grindr, Scruff, and Tinder, it really is no wonder reports have shown a significant increase in STDs and guess what, officials are blaming social media. But maybe, just maybe, not getting tested regularly can be to blame as well. Honestly, […]
