khaki/rust mashup

I dont know what it is about today.....

I’m feeling blissful today!!!!!

It’s a cold and rainy day here in lovely London, you know what makes me laugh is one thing you have to understand is here in London, the weather is most def the most talked about subject. It seems to dictate how you are feeling. But today for me it really doesn’t, I don’t know if it is the caramel macchiato talking (FYI I hardly ever drink coffee), but something has given me a boost of happiness. I really wish I could share it with you too
Ok so enough about that :) So have you been exposed to Janelle Monae??? Her album cover for the archandroid is, in one word amazing! Just a wicked cool work of art. What do think?

In the story the tortoise and the hare, I relate to the hare more than the tortoise

Well today my thoughts have been on blogs, hmm more specifically fashion blogs. How did they manage to build such an empire, how do the bloggers get invited to fashion/make-up shows and get to see collections before anyone else??? These questions keep floating in my mind.

Recently I have been going through a self-evaluation phase; it is now time to evaluate this blog.
Firstly I should begin by telling you a little bit about myself. I am the eternal dreamer but I’m also a big procrastinator, when I have an idea, be it a blog, assignment, anything really, I assume it will be huge (haha when i dream, i dream BIG), then when it doesn't play out exactly like i imagined I get bored and quit.
So when I started a blog I assumed it would be an overnight success, though I can’t even explain why, so within a week I had already racked up enough posts to last a month. But still no followers L I have to be extremely honest and open now, that kinda hurt, so I went on twitter to try and recruit followers, expect I got bored of that in less than a week.

Recently I thought, ‘hang on a minute’, fellow bloggers all started their blogs some time ago, they were consistent and when you read some of the blogs you could see how passionate they are about the topic in hand. Also I’m really doing this for me more than anything.
So from today I’ll start to think of myself as the tortoise rather than the hare.

Self-evaluation (blog phase) complete J HAHAHHA does anyone else think like this?

Much luv

do you remeber Nina Sky? Ummmm i dont you're ready for the new look






OMG OMG OMG, the sisters have had a revoluntionary fashion make over for their new album. New hair cuts, serious wardrobes and editorial style make-up, I luv it. Due to crappy internet connection, I can't seem to hear the album but I cant wait now.
I dunno if this evolution is their own doing or a stylist (I'd prefer if they had something to do with this) but im seriously impressed.

monday blues

Forgive me dear blog, for I have neglected you for a hot minute

Firstly let me begin by apologising for the hiatus. My internet connection has been absurdly slow recently, I've been applying for jobs like a crazy woman and trying to update my lifestyle. I kind of feel like it's time to move to New York, and i have been trying to get a job there, i have never longed for something so much in my whole life. I have dreams of grandeur about my imminent move, all i need is that elusive job then I’m gone. Pray for me, hopefully I can get a CAREER out there.
In the meantime here is an offering of fashion. Also I'd love to hear any stories about you moving abroad (it'll inspire me :))
Much luv
