Jelly shoes

Summer is round the corner and I personally don't like showing my feet (well the sides of my feet anyway ) I am very particular with the foot wear I choose to buy. I purchased the JuJu aka jelly sandals from Topshop the other day at £24 they are reasonably priced . They are so cute ! Reminds me of my childhood back when i was 12 I had the silver glitter versions instead .Comes in a variety of colours royal blue, hot pink and silver glitter . Quite comfortable they are quite big so if you want them fitted I would suggest you go a size down. But I personally don't mind the extra space it will come in handy especially on the more hotter days . If you have sweaty feet I wouldn't advice you to get a pair they are plastic ! After all can't wait to wear mines out!



Went Hyde park the other day with my girlies had so much fun and took these fabulous pictures! Next time we all said it will be done properly because it was a last minute dot come idea lol food and music

Victoria & Albert museum


If your about town you must visit the  Victoria & Albert museum its well cool has all sorts of art in there and if   your a fashion freak like me there is a bit in the museum where there is a gallery of fashion when it started and how it has evolved through the centuries beautiful dresses and pieces had to take a few pictures

 This dress in particular was by Christian Dior  was created around the 1930's/40's during that time the world war had just ended and people were rationing cloths, fabrics like they did the food. But Christian Dior introduced the 'new look'  bringing back glamour for the women of that decade. Expensive fabric was used to create this beautiful dress like silk for example i can imagine at that time the price it was going for.

 This dress was from the 1960's/70's very elegant this was my favourite dress from that particular display


Love this dress!




Love the high waisted bottoms not too sure about the bikini top though lol 1920's/30's swimwear,beachwear


Anybody know about Surrealism? this dress was made and designed by Schiaperreli i hope i spelt that right
whom was heavily influenced by that type of art and always incorporated that in the  designs  have you figured out  the print ?...well neither have i.

Trends!!!




Picked up a copy of the Vogue trend book in Kurt Geiger like 2 weeks ago



This is an essential guide i believe, i mean its Vogue! this Spring/Summer is going to be fun


Trends
White- I don't think white is my colour really but i will give it a shot for this summer its always good to try something new. White is one of those colours that is  hard to pull off  you leave your house wearing white but you come back home and its turned into cream.
Floral- I love flowers this one is a hit for me lol its girly, pretty  floral prints, accessories, tea dresses, maxi dresses .
Shining- sequins , metallic gold, bronze, silver its all about metal almost futuristic. Shiny material that when light reflects on it looks like something out of a sci-fi movie.






Suits- Topshop and Zara make brilliant suits for Women the suit
has to be sharp clean cuts, power suits but in all shades of the colour
palette. Cropped blazers are especially quite popular teamed with 
cigarette trousers or ankle grazers which i'm loving. A few cigarette 
trousers , Mens shirts (particularly slim line) and a cropped blazer 
are on my Summer wish list. You can go for the more masculine look
or if you prefer keep it feminine as long as top and bottoms match 
the same colour.
Splits- Side split, Back split, double splits  its all about being sexy and 
showing skin midi skirts, dresses, maxi skirts and maxi dresses. Its time 
to bring out the pins this trend is definetly bringing sexy back! lol
Japonism- East meets West more like West meets East oriental flavour 
kimonos, obi belts and all that picture a modern Geisha  not the easiest 
look to pull off i personally think







Black- I love black goes with everything suits every
shape and sizes. But this one leaves a question mark
as i don't think it should be considered as a Summer
colour as everyone knows black absorbs heat lol.
Chequers- This trend is heavily influenced by the 1960's black and white being the most popular combo.

Slouch- I love wearing my brothers jumpers i think i look uber cool in them lol baggy jumpers casual loose trousers ,pyjama pants  keep accessories minimal to pull off this casual look.
Lines- Vertical, Horizontal there is a pair of black and white striped leggings from River Island  that i must get. If your brave! rock the lines look top and bottom if you dare personally too much lines makes my eyes go all blurry.


 Frills- This trend speaks for itself.... i like.
Plastic- Plastic was commonly left for the bedroom (freak mode) but now it is on the runway mmmmm coloured plastic, clear plastic looks quite uncomfortable to me lol not for me well in public anyway.

New hair !

Its summer time and maintaining long hair can be a tedious task so i have a short hairstyle the bob! with a fringe i love it Peruvian hair once again this time 3 bundles cost me £75 good look :)





Fringes are so in but i prefer mines going past my brows rather than the shorter style that i am seeing in magazines and plus it allows me and gives me time to grow them out.


Just had my hair done like the other day well happy :D love it so many compliments can't lie I'm loving the attention. Although pricey £150 !!!! For the hair I know right quite a lot but then again it is Peruvian hair.

Hair journey

I went natural in about August of last year (can't believe I have to type last year now lol ) and I sward that I will not be going back to chemically treated hair *sigh* I totally gave up and relaxed my hair in September a colleague of mine actually said to me that I was a natural hair ambassador lol bless her. I just couldn't do it anymore I missed being able to tie up my hair . Missed the hairstyle choices all that I missed irony it ended up not relaxing properly anyway only the roots got straightened my hair was to thick! So I have put my hair in braids to stretch it a little and now I'm looking to relax and trim it again come march . I just get bored so quickly the only thing that I will not do is to colour my hair anyway will keep an update on all of my hairs endeavours.



New Year 2013

Finally 2013 is here! Last year just went by that I can't even remember half of the things that happened. I thank God with all the mistakes I had made in 2012 my eyes are more open and I don't intend to make those same mistakes again! I wrote in my last post that I was flying to the USA *sigh* due to unforeseen circumstances it did not happen . *Sad-face* so the years celebrations was once again in London Town. It started off a disaster going to 3 different house parties that were all epic failures . But then funny enough that the last party we went to rocked ! It made my night so it was a happy ending didn't want to drink this time wanted to remember all that happened. And I have real good memories I did the countdown in church which was awesome but it was humorous that the majority of the young people there were going to go clubbing and do all sorts of obscenities and sins after . Well I know I'm not perfect but at least I didn't drink lol .I pray for Gods favour I know I am blessed already but I need the extra support. This year i am going to stay focused I have so many plans and ideas my goals will be reached going to be 100 all the time impossible no! Challenging yes! But i am ready 2013! Bring it on !!! :p
