FEEL GOOD

Hey guys! As some of you know, there are floods around some parts of England. Thank God the east Midlands isn't flooded... But to be on a safe side,  I have prepared myself by doing some food shopping, to keep my house loaded...just in case things go south... 

Anyway here is my current shoot, I really love these palazzo pants, they are so comfortable.. but I am so short I had to fold them at the bottom LOL.
 I grew up in Africa and I remember the palazzo trend from when I was young.. they remind me of a musician called Pepe kale, he used to rock them all the time as they are unisex.. OMG I just found one of his songs >> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nyk7uQUaiVc <<  Every wedding I went to... they played this song, it brings back so many memories.. I'm getting emosh. Man!! I really miss the mother land nowww.

MY MESSAGE OF THE DAY: It doesn't matter what everyone else thinks. People are always judging each other and the truth is, they're not very good at it. Don't put a lot of concern into what people think of you. You weren't created to please and entertain everyone. You were created to be you, so feel good about yourself.

HISTORY

Hey guy's! It has been a minute.. so much has been going on, my apologies for being MIA.. Anyway happy New Year!! Hopefully 2014 is treating you well thus far... Speaking of the new year.. each year I make  new years resolutions, one of them being weight loss LOL.. I laugh because I have set foot in a gym, three times in all my life.. but this year I decided not to make any new years resolutions.. I decided to look at  the word HISTORY. As we now call 2013 history..  The word can be looked at as His-story, meaning God's story in my life. Self reflection one may call it. This is something personal I decided to share with you guys... Please feel to share with me your resolutions.

Christmas prep

Hey guys! As you all know Christmas is around the corner.. This reminds me of when I was young and my mum would buy me 'Christmas clothes' and that ladies and gentlemen was the outfit of the year! :) Its amazing remembering the thing that we used to treasure, in comparison to now... I put together a few outfits which I feel would be ideal for this festive season.. Some might be going out for dinner, having a family gathering, parties or going to church, these are some of my gestures ..

Skirt & shirt -Topshop

Necklace- Guess

Watch & Clutch- R.I.

Shoes- Christian Louboutin

Skirt & Top- Topshop

Shoes- Charlotte Olympia

Purse- River Island

Earrings & Coat- R.I.

Bracelet-Asos

 One does not often glummer up... but the festive season parties sometimes feel like celebrity events. It only makes sense that we glamour up during this season, I cant thing of any other period to get all dolled up ;)

Vera Wang- Gown
Clutch- Warehouse
Jewellery- Kate Spade

Top-Prabal Gurung (Stylebop.com)

Skirt- R.I.

Bracelet- Otteny.com

Bag -Valentino Garavani

River Island -pencil skirt & sweat shirt

 Red pointy -toe pumps 

 Valentino -red strap pumps 

 GUESS by Marciano- pearl purse 

 Kate Spade -stud earrings 

Elizabeth Arden- lipstick

For those who require comfort, this outfit maybe ideal and I have also added an alternative of a pair of flats in this last ensemble.

 I incorporated red as it is one of the traditional festive colours, but I used burgundy a lot more because too much red just felt too cheesy for me.I also added a little twist with the colour blocking theme which remains in trend. Hope you enjoyed! 

Thank you for passing by

R.I.P. NELSON MANDELA

Take a moment of silence..

I was about to post my blog post for the week and I heard the news of the death of Africa's greatest icon. .

He understood all the hurtful things than were done unto us, the black people... To him it was not a history lesson or a video watched on youtube... it was his life.. but he understood that hatred does not help us, hatred can only consume us and make ones self a slave in mind, a zombie with guns, knives, killing and causes self destruction.. Hatred does not build a nation.. He started with the man in the mirror, he became the change he wanted to see..and he build a legacy... 

His names is written in the books of history as one of the greatest inspirational man of all time. His strength and courage touched nations...

 Tears shall dry but his name shall forever be engraved in our hearts. He was a man of great honour. 

May he rest in peace.

Hey guys! A friend of mine mentioned that I haven't been literal so I should start saying something.. Tbh I am not good with words.. So I'll try finding some quotes... I don't have the most interesting life LOL and it takes a while for me to get comfortable in new environments.. so bear with me...

Enjoy! 

My mum purchased my coat two years ago and my baby sister purchased this dress for me in Newziland right around the same time, so I can't tell you the stores as I do not know them.
