"Brooklyn"


I am back from NYC and although my body feels like I've been hit by a mack truck, my trip was nothing short of perfect. The highlight and reason for this trip was to see Jay perform at the new Barclays Center. There was no way I was going to miss an opportunity to see him perform in his house (literally) in his home city.

I wanted to be comfortable for the concert so my outfit was inspired by a funky baseball hat that I seen online about three weeks ago. It sold out in two days, but luckily they restocked it and I was able to purchase it. I added a pair of half leather gloves and a bright red lip to bring the look together.
Inside the Barclay Center Jay added another 40/40 club. My girls and I had a few drinks and hung out at the bar for about an hour before the concert started. So back to my outfit.....It seems as though there was a consensus that my look was very Janet Jackson Rhythm Nation 1814...LOL!!! Two people at the 40/40 club said it and there were several comments on my Instagram and Facebook pictures that I posted... I thought it was too funny and very true. One of my good friends said that my BFF Sheila ( on the left) was channeling Trinity from the Matrix.....LOL!!!!! 

Check out some of the pictures and video footage I shot from the concert below....
