So today I'm back with another outfit of the day for the Birmingham Fashion Festival. I kind of went for a casual look but you can easily dress this up with some heels and switch the denim jacket for a leather jacket. You guys know I love anything comfortable and it's always a plus if it actually looks pretty sick.
Sooo .. I'm guessing you guys probably noticed something different ... Yeahhhhh so I have orange hair, why? because orange is the new black (see what I did there haha, I'm so funny right)! I was slightly inspired by the scottish disney Princess Merida, from the film Brave. I feel like her chill outlook on life is slightly me, so it was only appropriate to also dye my hair orange to fully relate to her haha. To be honest, I just wanted to change my look and do something out of my comfort zone and at first I was a little apprehensive but now I'm feeling it.
THE FASHION FESTIVAL EXPERIENCE
So the festival was a four day event, showcasing lots of designers in Birmingham and the event I attended was the Private Liaison Runway show. The fashion show was in a really nice and intimate setting. We got to sit front row, so we had a very good view of all the models. The designers were so diverse, you had a variety of styles across the whole show, which was really cool to see.
Overall it was a really good event, something I'd recommend to any aspiring fashion designers or even anyone just like me who likes fashion.
Make sure to follow Birmingham Fashion Festival on Instagram to see all the designers and to keep up to date on their upcoming shows,

Hello + Welcome back to my blog, and welcome to my second beauty post!
It dawned upon me that this is also a beauty blog but I noticed I barely did any beauty posts. I am not the biggest make up fanatic but one thing that I do have and have a lot of is, lip products! I use to hate having big lips but after the realisation that big lips are life, I took advantage of them, ombre looks literally look so good on my lips, since there's a lot more to work with if you know what I mean lol.
So as a woman of colour its sometimes hard to find a nude that looks good on my skin tone, I know the struggle is real so I thought I'd share my top lip glosses and matte lipsticks that really compliment that melanin!
I hope you guys like it, If you want to see more beauty stuff comment below! But enough rambling.. on to the swatches! ...
LIP GLOSSES
1. CLINIQUE LIP GLOSS - NUDE POP
2. NYX BUTTER GLOSS - PRALINE
3. NYX BUTTER GLOSS - GINGER SNAP
MATTE LIPS

Hello + welcome back to my blog, today on this glorious sunday morning we are back with another 'Style Steal'. Today I am introducing the sporty dress! Sports clothing brands are doing the most these days, and I am here for it. I'm just loving how a lot of the clothing that is supposed to be for fitness can now be worn on the daily, like sports bras, track bottoms and leggings, the list can go on and on.
A popular brand that is just doing a lot is adidas, the Adidas Originals range is sick! Their dresses are honestly one of my favourites and there collection is extensive. They have so many different styles, and you can wear them in so many different ways.

Hello + welcome back to my blog.
Today I am back again, but I'm back with an outfit of the day, can you believe I haven't done one of these in 2017 and it's literally June. So today I decided to go back to basics, bringing out the good old denim jacket. I decided to pair it with this two in one t-shirt.
Listen, this top gives me life! It has got the Kanye West pablo kinda vibes to it and I think it's pretty sick, plus it is 80% cheaper than pablo merch. It reads ' who are we not to forgive', when I read it I was like bro! yes who are we not to?! What a thought provoking tee, I mean how many times do you find a t-shirt that makes you think this deep haha. Anyways, I hope this top makes you think as deep about life and forgiveness as I did.
Peace!
