Belted Red Shift Dress and Pink Stilettos

Hi everyone,

It is surprising that almost in a blink of an eye we are in the sticky hot July, as the memory of trying to get out of my snowed in flat when the Beast from the East hit us with layers and layers of magical snow still sits fresh in my mind just like it would have been the other week. Not a very long time has passed, not really... but what a difference a few months can make. 

And therefore, whenever I am upset, whenever I am stressed about something, even through seeing red, I ask myself - will it matter in a months time? Even in a weeks time? And if the answer is a no, I let it go. Not always it's that easy, because sometimes like everyone I tend to give importance to things and situations that don't really matter. But how can you not, if you have invested your time and your resources in it? 

Pink Mini Skirt and Check Blazer

Hi, lovely people!

I am in disbelief, but UK has officially become too hot for me to handle. The coldest winter brought the most hottest summer I have experienced in this country. Suddenly, I am taken back to dresses that have been sitting in my closet for ages, mocking me for ever purchasing them, knowing damn well I would rarely get a chance to wear them here. Well, who's laughing now?

We all are a little bit guilty of doing this, of gathering things we might need one day, filling up our cabinets with tiny things we might find handy, buying those shoes we wear once because they only go with that one specific outfit, then never getting rid of them, because we think - what if... So, this and other things have put me in a very "de-cluttering" state of mind, with my space, my social environment and my thoughts.

Green Backless Maxi Dress

Hello lovely people,

I would be lying if I said the past month has been terrible, because it truly hasn't. In fact, it has been wonderful. Filled with days spent in the sun, dog cuddles, afternoons enjoying sunsets in the company of the most remarkable people, bonfire chats with the closest friends, laughter and tears of happiness, and memories that will fill my heart with warmth for the darker days. There are months that ask questions, and then there are months that answer them. Both, factual questions and those that won't form an answer with words, but a feeling instead.

Black Satin Jumpsuit and Polka Dot Top

Hi, lovely people,

I have emerged from my annual suffering from the plague aka the cold I always get right before my birthday, and I am with both feet happily in June. As some of you know, we are just a few days away from my birthday, of me officially finishing the first quarter of my life safe and somewhat sound. :) So, because of this, I have been thinking hard about my time leading up to the 25 and my past year in general. I have been thinking of how I have changed as a person, how my way of thinking has shifted and my view towards those around me adapted once again. 

There has also been a mental to do list set up for myself for the next year, with the "be kinder to yourself" still at the very top. I guess the fact that my first day of my annual leave was spent completely stone cold, passed out asleep for nearly 20 hours, was a sign that maybe, maybe I am a little bit tired...(please sense the sarcasm on the emphasis on "little bit").  But, I'm still learning and taking baby steps towards taking better care of myself, as I imagine we all are.
