Welcome back Party! ;)

I'm back again in the world of blogging *celebrates*. 

Been a while, and these are the welcome gifts I want to get myself ;)

I honestly feel like going on a shopping spree for some reason. It could be the warm days that are coming up bit by bit in this country. *Thank goodness winter is about to leave us for a few months* It has honestly been one of the longest I feel I've experienced.

Anyway... Enough about the ramblings - back to the gifts I want to get myself ;)

Bye for now

Just wanted to take some time to say goodbye for now. Birthday week is here and I'm taking some time off to celebrate growing a year older by the ocean...

Will be sure to upload some pics when I get back. *Kisses*

The #MandelaStory

"Would our nation's father, Nelson Mandela have spent 27 years in prison if he had access to the same technology, social media platforms, instant sharing apps and global monitoring tools as we do today? Watch the video and find out."

In keeping up with the celebrate uTata Mandela's Birthday. Add your name to the list...

Love this idea!

Peachy scents!

I saw this on dearheartbeauty and absolutely loved the packaging...  I adore scents that are anything fruity. And it doesn't hurt that it's Tommy Hilfiger right? 

The scent is incredible! 

The only explanation of it would be; that delicate smell one gets when they've just come out of the shower after using their favourite shower gel ;)

Absolutely love it!

Emeli Sande :: Next to me

I think I'm falling for Emeli Sande as a singer. Her studio debut album Our version of events features a track called "Next to me". I found this acoustic version of the song on YouTube. I honestly love the acoustic version of the song better than the uptempo one. It just shows off her raw talent...



This version is part of the "How I wrote" feature found on The guardian

Chain Bracelet :: Did it myself!

I did mention that I will be trying my DIY skills on those Chain bracelets I saw on I Spy DIY... 

Well, here are the results.

I'm gonna try my DIY skills out at making 1 or 2 of these. Will be sure to update you on the outcome.

Rihanna on the Cover of Harper’s Bazaar US

In light of my current photography interest, I found this simple but yet hmmmm..... I'm not quite sure what the “hmmmm” represents in this context, but it’s a good thing. The picture just draws in your attention. 

Firstly - the simplicity of the make-up is spot on

Secondly - covering half her face just brings that "hmmmm" into the scenario.

The Artist

The artist is Megan Hess. I love these illustrations.

Her client list includes Chanel, Vanity Fair, TIME and Vogue; to name a few. Her love for fashion is evident.
