One to Watch: ForEverMore

Every Thursday, She's So New York unleashes it's "One to Watch" series, where we debut the latest and greatest music from the ladies and gentlemen of the Big Apple. Today and in celebration of "S-E-X Week," we couldn't think of a fitting song other than "Goodie Two Shoes," from the Brooklyn based singing trio: ForEverMore. Comprised of singers, Zerenyti, Kye Charizma, and Tiny, these sexy ladies exude sensuality, sex appeal and confidence with their track. Take a listen:

ForEverMore is far more than a singing group.

They are one entity, a business. ForEverMore realize that by utilizing their natural born talents and with a lot of hard work, they have the potential to generate millions. After years of honing their craft separately, they joined forces to create a unique competitive advantage over other recording artist entering the same field of music. While most labels create girl groups the same height, size, complexion and sound, ForEverMore gives their target audience a taste of reality. Each member of the group has their own unique sound which when married together forms a sound like no other!

Other advantages that ForEverMore possess fall into the musical category. All members have the talent to write and vocally arrange radio ready songs. Each member has developed skills in different genre such as music production, cosmetology, media arts, and video production in order to be more involved with the development of the group. This has enabled ForEverMore to be self contained and motivated. Most important is their belief in GOD. Through time ForEverMore has developed a chemistry not to be broken by the influences of negativity, making them a force not to be reckoned with!

The Sexy Struggle: The M.I.L.F. Edition

If you've ever watched your stomach (and body) grow through the miracle (albeit pain in the ass miracle) of pregnancy and childbirth; then you've also watched (at times with disdain) the rapid (and sometimes dramatic) ways your body has changed since giving birth and being a mother. The mirror (not to mention the girls with no trace of childbirth stomach walking around when it seems you're feeling your lowest) can be an enemy. How can a woman with a child or children POSSIBLY feel sexy let alone have sex?

Even if you haven't had a child, we've all been there. You overanalyze and focus on problem areas that may or may not exist all while taking a peek at your mate or spouse and wondering "Do I even turn him/her on anymore?" It's disheartning feeling less than your best, not to mention when you don't have time to get the baby off your chest long enough to put actual thought into it.


It's Sex Week here at She's So New York, and we encourage our women to feel sexy, walk sexy, BE SEXY - no matter if they have one child or five! No one should know you have a child unless there's a pint sized loud mouth calling you "Mommy" at the top of their lungs.  Here are 5 tips given from a mother of two who knows a little about the "Sexy Struggle,":

1. Instead of focusing on the stretch marks you've acquired during pregnancy, focus on other areas of your body that you just ADORE. Use those factors that make you feel good about yourself to your advantage! If it's your arms you love, coordinate confident and sexy (remember to keep it classy when necessary!) pieces to accenuate. If it's those legs, find dresses, skirts, rompers (a summer must-have!) to show off those gams. If its your eyes, experiment with makeup; give yourself the positive attention you deserve! And if it's those newly acquired (ahem) breasts (that you secretly thank your baby for); incorporate showing off that amazing cleavage with halters, scoop neck tees, and more! You earned those puppies, give em a spin! Eventually, you'll care less about your "survivor scars" and more on getting the guys and gals to notice you in all your sexy splendor. When you feel sexy, your partner will appreciate your confidence and want you that much more!

2. While you're out there shopping, invest in lingerie and other sexy items (toys, candles, etc.) that can help spice up the bedroom or any other place you decide to get it swinging. The touch of cashmere and lace against your bare skin is instamatic sex appeal. Lingerie and sex toys can make a woman feel uninibited, unafraid and eager to have as much fun with their partners as possible. Be open to the possibilities that these purchases can bring!

3. If you're in a relationship or married, spend as much time getting to know your mate again. We all know that children are unpredictable, but when they are sleeping and/or on a schedule, use that time to whisper sweet nothings in each other's ears, flirt, and have old school make out sessions. If your kids are older, let them know that its "Mommy and Daddy" time. Show your guy or gal what they're missing! If you're not ready or don't have enough time to be completely intimate, use other methods to profess intimacy and sexual desire.!

4. If you're fortunuate to score a babysitter, TAKE ADVANTAGE! Go out to dinner, see a movie -  things you used to do BEFORE kids came along. Reminice (and maybe re-enact!) old things that made you two giddy with excitement. Share over a glass of wine or whatever you love to drink (F.Y.I. After four hours, you can breast feed again, enjoy that glass girl!) and enjoy each other. It's important to remind each other of why you fell in love in the first place!

5. While some might say that it isn't important, sex DOES keep the love and fire burning. The worse thing that a mother can do is stop living for herself and taking care of her sexual needs and desires. We are not immune to a sexual appetite once we have kids! Be creative and maybe you just might fall in love all over again!

Rhonda Says: Love and Relationships

As promised, She's So New York is informing and inspiring us all by sharing stories from real women who are bold enough to live life by their rules, and look good doing it!

In keeping up with that spirit, we're finally ready to show off Rhonda! The spunky, Queens native - thespian who's doing her part to give as much of herself to this city as she's getting from it. Involved in a loving, five year relationship with her girlfriend, Rhonda's got plenty to say about how to approach finding "the one", and, how to keep the love going strong once you've got them. (Shout out to all Queens thespians, seeing as how myself and Portia Walker majored in theater at HILLCREST HIGH IN JAMAICA, QUEENS!),






Welcome to my first entry for this Bombshell Blog She’s So New York! The wonderful staff at SSNY has asked me to contribute, and, I'm honored to let you in on everything I think and enjoy in New York City. I'm a born and raised Queens Lady, but trust, I'm perpetually immersed in the treasure chest that New York has to offer. It's important to soak up every bit of diversity pouring out of every seam here in NYC.


The topic this week is Relationships, an important bond for our development as men and women in society. In New York City, the challenge to find a suitable mate can be daunting. If you're looking for a lasting relationship, the search can become discouraging. Is it because we want the ‘perfect’ one? Listen, there's standards we set for the “perfect one” , that are sometimes higher than we (the mate hunter) can even aspire to! GET REAL. Look at the heart and character of a lover. Money, looks and charm may equal amazing getaways and tons of toe curling ‘release’… but where's the substance that withstands years of disappointments, pain ,and other traumas that cripple our faith in life? I've been with the same woman for five years. We've have had hard times, disagreements, and countless tests of courage that could have broken our bond. So far, we're making it work. Laughter serves as the ‘Neosporin’ along the way.


All Relationships are work, and oh *Ru Paul Voice* You Betta Work! The people we love are powerful mirrors into the deepest parts of ourselves that we may ignore or have forgotten. There will be things about you that you'll see in your mate that infuriates you, amazes you and/or teaches you. They are all a part of learning to fully love each other and ourselves. I used to think I was God’s Gift to relationships because I gave advice to struggling loved ones. Real love will smash that delusion real quick! *News Flash* - It’s a partnership and we are only as great as the positivity we create on a daily basis. That's the gift we need to cash in on. To spread light and joy as much as we can. We can only hope the good we do to return to us and enrich our lives in all areas. When we let go of pain and animosity, blessings have room to bloom in our relationships.


We need to ‘pack light’ for the never-ending journey ahead. I have learned so much about myself thanks to the commitment I made to my partner. There will definitely be more trials to come, but, I believe we can take it on together. Lastly, for those that don't regard same sex relationships as "bonafide" commitments, look past the gender and uncover the common denominator that is LOVE.




With an Open Heart,


Rhonda
