My Skincare Routine for soft and youthful skin

BEAUTY
December 21 2017

EPARA x SHIRLEY B. ENIANG EPARA is a luxury skincare brand, founded by Ozohu Adoh. Ozohu discovered organic ingredients from Africa, and has carefully curated each product. It brings me great pleasure to know that this brand had someone like me in mind to create for, as a woman of colour. Beauty to me isn’t just limited to the outside, it comes from the inside too, and one of the reasons why I absolutely love this brand, is because of the origin of it’s creation. Ozohu is a Nigerian, just like me, and she felt that there weren’t many luxurious… Read More »

Some time ago I shared with you here on the blog my “Payday Wishlist“, and there was a certain bag I’d been lusting over, which I can happily say I now own. If you watched my Vlog of my visit to Chloé in London a couple of weeks back, you would have seen my excitement the day I bought it! I’ve just uploaded an updated version of the YouTube classic video, “What’s in my BAG?” featuring it and all it’s contents! Wanna see? Watch the video below!

Autumn/Fall Lookbook

FASHION, LOOKBOOK
October 18 2017

With autumn’s arrival, I thought to put together a Lookbook of what I’m excited to be wearing this season. Currently, I’m loving my cream and earthy shades, suede textures, and pops of red. I’ve missed layering, wearing pointed boots and rocking honey dusted ombre ends. Paris was the perfect back drop to film this time around, with the gorgeous streets and beautiful cafés, I had a pleasant time. What are you loving wearing this Autumn? .:: ITEMS ::. ~ LOOK 1~ TOPSHOP Jeans {LINK} STRADIVARIUS Top {LINK} ZARA Jacket {LINK} (Similar) TOPSHOP Pouch {LINK} BOOHOO Heels ~ LOOK 2 ~ STRADIVARIUS Trench {LINK}… Read More »

Picnic In The Park

July 29 2017

Every now and again my friends, family and I organise a get together, and this time we decided we’d have a picnic! We always end up laughing about our memorable moments and embarrassing stories and we talk excitedly about our dreams for the future. I love my friends and fam, they are a very supportive bunch, and are all incredibly talented. It’s a huge blessing to be able to spend moments with them and enjoy life. For the picnic, I prepared a basket full of goodies while listening to my favourite summer songs (Listen to my Playlist HERE), popped in… Read More »

How to always feel good enough

BERSHKA Dress | ZARA Bag With the number of various images dominating traditional media, and now social media, it is no surprise that we find ourselves in moments where we compare ourselves – beauty, appearance, wealth, level of success, social status, diet.. the list goes on – to the next person, that seemingly has all of these and everything you could possibly dream of. As much as there are images, I believe there should also be moments to remind ourselves that that’s all they are: images. However aesthetically pleasing they may be there is a reality behind them, very normal,… Read More »

R is for Read

*Advertisement feature. One of my favourite places in London to go to explore is Notting Hill. From the bustling shops and cafés on the high street, to the pastel coloured houses tucked behind them. My imagination wonders as I shoot the streets with my camera, and I’m instantly inspired to create. In Notting Hill, there is a bookshop I cherish. I love visiting it from time to time, and always have a field day browsing the many books they have in their collection. I love reading, as it allows me to learn about new things, and know the stories of different… Read More »
