A Day In The Life Of Me



Day 4....Thai Square (Great Gatsby)

Church organised a Great Gatsby themed end of year party. I expect Hillsong organises bomber parties as the tickets were snapped up before you could finish typing Hillsong. It was such a downer - we were soo looking forward to it. So, refusing to be defeated, we decided to make a night of it by our ace. Dressed up as we would have and went out to dinner with my ace boom. Dinner was awesome and we planned a great come back to the flat party... Lets just say we had a New Years with a difference...

Insp/Aspirations


Happy New 2014 everyone. Hope you all had a wonderful time during the festive period. New year's resolutions made or not made- each to their own. Yours truly had 2, great big phat ticks on that 2013 list, so fair to say that I'm  deadproud of me. Reason why I felt spurned to get onto this years list now, just taken this long to actually action it, tsk tsk. Nevertheless, most important thing is, I am actually on it. 

2013 was a good year & I had lots of lots of great moments,one of which was meeting FitnessGuru @scoladondo- my aspiration/inspiration.It was the BFF's birthday and she's awesome like that in getting people together, all walks of life. Six degrees of separation immediately springs to mind. We went to a Street Feast at Dalston Food Market. They"bring together London’s best street food traders, chefs and restaurants, and serve giant festival-style pint-sized cocktails, craft beer and great wine, for quite a unique eating experience"
Now you try eating a giant grilled pork belly when you have your fitness idol sitting just right next to you. I really wanted her to see its not because of eating things such as that that im like this. You will find she is way way younger than me,almost half my age if I dare say so, but it doesn't have to take a Goliath or famous giant to be able to inspire someone. In her young years, she has worked extremely hard: the willpower, the tenacity, the RESULTS!!! I shan't go on, before this post turns to an ode to Scola. All I'll say is "Thank You Scola"... On such an unassuming day, here's what I wore.





Dress- PRIMARK
Blazer & Bag - ZARA
Sandals &Ring-TOPSHOP
Watch- D&G
Earrings-MIKEY

Hope you all off to a great start to 2014. Get those lists out and get acting. Do something, anything but sit on plans and dreams...Thanks for stopping by,catch you all soon.

In The Mix



Hi everyone, sorry for the hiatus(slaps hand). Im definitely back now, hopefully to share a lot more of what I've been working on. I always like to recycle my clothes when I can help it. I've noticed how I was in the habit of buying something new every time I had an occasion. Downside to that being, most of my clothes have been worn just the one time and they go to the bottom of the "literal pile". SMH..Safe to say I've overgrown that stage to be a more sensible dresser and now tend to work with what I have. Here's something I threw on when I attended a babyshower at the weekend. 









 I love how the playful dress can be styled in different ways to reflect the changing weather. I wore it last summer when we graced the Jersey Islands with the BFF. I also love the fun meets sexy feel of the jacket. The floral prints have been definitely making a statement this season. The florals complimented my whole look without screaming -EFFORT. Intrigued how I did not intend to wear a jacket and I grabbed that on my way out the door for "just in the case the weather turned".....and it happened to work out as it did. Result!! Was definitely my  statement piece of the night..Have a great week
