Pastel Jewels


With the amount of rain that has been falling in the UK, these pastel sneakers would have come in very handy! I love Lulu Frost's accessories collections as well thus I paired thus outfit together....

Black Skater

I must admit I love these sneakers! If I could wear them everyday I would. It's only that they don't match most of the clothes in my wardrobe. Nonetheless, I try to find ways to make them work!!! I love these sneakers (I said that already, didn't I?) I have my eye fixed on the blue glitter MIU MIU sneakers that came out this season. My mind is telling me no my; but body, my body! you know the song!!! I will resist the urge and not get them....for now!
 
 
 
 
 
 Hope you're having a lovely week!!!

The Corner Shop


There's nothing like walking home after a long day of shopping and travelling (oh you thought I was going to say work hunh? nope. hee hee) and wanting to drink something chilled and refreshing and sink your teeth into something sweet. That's exactly what I did on this particular day I went to the Corner shop, and got Apple juice and a honey bun!! My Junk Food fix in Harlem, as there are no honey buns in the UK Thank God, and I gave up Apple Juice for Lent (my favorite juice) so I was craving it, badly. 

 
To be honest I am happy the American Corner shops aren't in England. The weight I lost in 2 months I gained back in 2 weeks... Junk Food is the enemy!! Stay AWAY!!! lol.... Back to my gym work out and healthy living goals. Meanwhile I don't regret any of the junk I ate while in the states....and I feel a bit guilty because I should shouldn't I? Don't answer that! *wink*

Thanks to everyone for the wedding comments!! And well wishes I'll be replying you guys individually shortly!

Too Short

I'm back in Bradford, and I had a short, very short, yet wonderful time in the states. It was tooooo short! I can't wait to finish with this degree, move into the working profession and be one step closer to being a Mrs. One thing I have learned is that planning a wedding is not beans (easy)! I don't understand how some girls plan entire weddings before even meeting their future spouse?!? How does that work? Maybe I was too much of a tomboy to worry about 'planning my future wedding.' Right now I cannot begin to tell you I would have not planned a wedding without my fiance! No way! Too many little details, hidden cost, themes, websites, photography, family preferences and etc...

 Dress: Zara, Patent Leather Clutch: Vintage, Bracelets: Misc, Shoes: Miu Miu

We plan to keep our wedding simple, elegant and small! And when I say small 250 guests, is small for a Nigerian wedding. Well enough wedding talk, off to start studying. More pics of my fabulous time in NY,and the DMV area coming soon. Meanwhile my mother kept complaining of my 'short dresses', saying they are too short! **Goes into the wardrobe to let go of some of my dresses that are too short, this one included. 

Toodles.

Jet-Lagged


I have been home in the states for about 3 days now and let me tell you it feels good to be home. But man am I jet lagged!!! I hate it sooo much! I need to use everyday I have to the fullest. Today I am definitely going to do everything on my things to do list. I've seen a couple of venues and have my eyes set on one that is absolutely beautiful, by God's grace I will fulfill all plans of this trip! And throw a little shopping in the mix!!!!
