I am officially the coolest aunt. I let my nephews photobomb me while I'm trying to be serious and take blog pics, and then I turn around and shoot hoops with them...IN HEELS. Anything for my boys, anything :) 

P.S. This is the outfit that landed me a spot in ESSENCE nearly 2.5 years ago!

wearing: zara blazer & heels, urban outfitters zebra blouse (SIMILAR), topshop pants, (LOVE THESE) cynthia rowley sunnies
worn to: church and shoot hoops
