What I Wore | Grecian Pink

The warm weather for me means that my dresses can finally come out to play, showcasing their beauty without being swamped by coats and scarves. This dress makes me think of Greece. Its overall style is quite Grecian, don't you think? I tried to bring back old school fashion blogger vibes by colour blocking it with these suede turquoise wedges. But you know me, some black had to feature somewhere to calm my soul so I added a black statement necklace and handbag.

I've really been enjoying the warmer weather not so much the dehydration and extra dry skin and hair that comes with it. Last year when there seemed to be no respite from the cold season, I could only dream of January (who does that? lol!) and the sun and getting all my dresses out to play. Granted, I wore this in December when it finally started getting warm, hence the Christmas decorations but it's still season appropriate. 

All in all, I'm pretty happy with this purchase. It's one of those dresses that I know I will keep for a long time.

How I Learnt To Leave Everything in God's Hands

For a long time (about four years), things hadn't been going the way I had hoped and planned. Everything seemed to be falling apart. To say that I was stressed is an understatement. I would sit on my bed asking God why he would allow so many bad things to happen to me. I would ask him when my light at the end of the tunnel was going to appear. It reached a point where I basically gave up. I couldn't even bring myself to ask God to bless me with this or that. I would often say to myself, "What's the point? My prayers won't even get answered. Something bad is still going to be waiting for me around the corner no matter how hard I pray." I knew all the teachings that we should always have faith in God. I would often recall that hymn that comes from Isaiah 49:15, 'Can a mother forget a baby at her breast and have no compassion for the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will never forget you.' And verse 16 of the same chapter, 'See ...

STYLIST: FULL VOLUME SKIRT

Hi all!! Happy November to you all!!  Maxi skirts and pencil skirts not to mention tutus have been all the rage for a long time now. I still can't get enough of these skirts. However, there are a new brand of skirts that have been making the rounds. I've noticed more than one blogger rocking full volume skirts and it got me kinda partial to this out of the ordinary style.  Image Full volume skirts call to mind those Cinderella dresses that some of us wore as little girls. They give the impression of twirling and make one feel like a princess. Hey, we are all princesses in our own right but it doesn't hurt to have an item of clothing to remind you hahaha!!   Image From Blair of Atlantic-Pacific to Kryz Uy of Thirsty Thought , these bloggers have shown that you don't have to be 6 years old to wear these skirts. You can look as chic and elegant in a full volume skirt as you would in a pencil skirt. All it takes is a little sophisticated styling and ...

What I Wore | Feminine Pieces

Some days ago I watched a YouTube video that inspired me to push myself a bit more. I can't remember what the video was all about but I remember the vlogger saying that you should create more than you consume. That what we consume should serve to inspire us to create more.  Ever since I watched that video, I have been asking myself why I don't create as much as I used to. I feel like I have let my creativity slide and half the time I feel disappointed in myself for slacking. Granted, life has been tough on me over the last couple of years and this has had a domino effect on different aspects of my life.  I would love to get to a point where the happenings in life don't have such an effect on me but that is a work in progress.  I've been trying to push my creativity through my choice of outfits. Most days I gravitate towards my comfortable jeggings and a t-shirt but on other days I actually make an effort to put together two pieces that I would not ordinarily wear to...
