There is nothing more important for you than surrounding yourself with the right people.

the perfect sweatshirt
Not following today's mandatory colour scheme - emerald green, & choosing bright blue instead in the form of this comfy sweatshirt. Came across it on Asos & had to buy it - colour combination of bright blue, red & yellow spoke to me...but it's the "Bananas" slogan that sealed the deal - within seconds this sweatshirt was in my basket ready for checkout. I put it on this morning, pairing it with simple black leggings & black sock boots; & haven't taken it off - spent all day wearing it, having chats with papa, cuddling with my baby chubby bun, cooking sweet delights with mama - a perfect sweatshirt for my Saturday.

Saturday morning....
Oh, do I have a love affair with Saturday mornings....
Having a manic 9-5 office job has it's toll on my health, my mood, my energy levels, my SKIN! After taking selfies for this post, I didn't cover up all of the scabs on my face on purpose - to have this as a reminder, a motivator, something to look back at & think 'phew, thank goodness my skin is clear now'. But to reach this stage I have to be disciplined, motivated, creative with my meals & snacks...etc. Currently, I am addicted to Red Bull - any kind of fizzy drink actually, sadly nothing with a word 'Diet' in it. Skipping lunch, no healthy snacks, not drinking enough water, not getting enough sleep, the list goes on....
Comes Saturday nevertheless, & I want to be a better me....breakfast always always consists of fruits & Green Tea. I've started making my own flavoured water - cucumber, strawberries, lime & mint is my favourite! No make-up, reading books...listening to music....online shopping..face masks....coming up with ideas for photos or going through multiple boxes & make-up bags full of unworn clothes & jewellery, make-up, cards, magazine cut-outs......my best "me time"....
why is it so difficult to find the time during the week to do things for myself, my body & my mind?
YOUR BODY & MIND DESERVE THE BEST!

for the ones who dream of stranger worlds
Guuuys, OVERSIZED check blazers, sock boots, messy hair - I could wear this every day! Effortless, chic & stylish! And Oh My Goodness, the minute you decide to change things in your life, plan out every day & think about your goals day & night - it is so amazing to see them fruit to life.....Law of Attraction is real & oh so powerful! Edit your life frequently and ruthlessly. It is your treasure after all.....

you are what you love, not who loves you -- Sevilla, Spain
my, oh my, has it been a long time since I posted on my beloved blog....no, forget about posting...I don't even remember the last time I logged in here...I forgot all my passwords, all the tricks in Photoshop..today I spent 6 hours on Youtube watching tutorials trying to bring back my memory....Red Bull, Dr. Pepper, cupcakes, Nutella & a good few tears kept me company today, but not once did I want to call it a day.....thankfully, it all came back..together with a warm feeling of nostalgia...recollection of my love & enthusiasm & hunger to do this - brainstorm ideas, outfits, shoot, edit, write.....I could do this day & night...give my all....
This is just a reminder to myself, to pick up where I left off..strive to get better..make every effort to post more..work harder than everyone else!
Seville, oh Seville, you were beautiful - I didn't want to post typical touristy photos - we can look it all up online - I won't bore us with them....but I thought it is best to come visit this city during summer....when it's hot...when it's buzzing with people....to feel the energy....to hire a row boat at the Plaza of Seville....to swim in the swimming pool & lounge in the sun on the rooftop of your hotel....to sit all night outside sipping on Sangrias.....

it was all a dream
All my free time I spend watching beauty/fashion videos on YouTube, scrolling through thousands & thousands of pictures on Tumblr & Instagram. Making lists, saving inspirations, daydreaming, planning, living out my life in my dreams. Last week I came across the below saying & it haunts me: I cannot walk the streets of the city I live in, I am not excited by food, I cannot get one night of good sleep, I'm bored....."MAYBE THE JOURNEY ISN'T SO MUCH ABOUT BECOMING ANYTHING. MAYBE IT'S ABOUT UN-BECOMING EVERYTHING THAT REALLY ISN'T YOU. SO YOU CAN BE WHO YOU WERE MEANT TO BE IN THE FIRST PLACE."

'NO' is a full sentence
Heeey, you guys, every day I realise more & more that TIME IS MONEY, & that for our time we should charge a looot (insert 'raw cash' here)....take care of yourself, invest in yourself, spend your time on yourself & on the things that are good for you. 'NO' is a full sentence & learn to use it more.
On another note, I still dream of this casual outfit & can't wait to wear it again....
Cardigan: Juicy Couture (similar); Boyfriend T-shirt: Adolescent Clothing; Track Pants: Adidas, Black Suede Trainers: Vans; Backpack: Penneys/Primark; Faux Fur Charm: H&M

Denim jacket hanging off my shoulders..there is nothing new, except for someone new in my life..talking to myself, but I never listen....to move away & start over......
