DETAILS ARE WHAT MAKES A PERSON

OUTFIT DETAILS

Dress- Asos

Shoes- Ebay

Purse- Miss Selfridge

Wrist cuff - Primark

When I watched the movie 'jumping the broom', I quite hated it. It was just too cheesy for me but the one thing I got out of the movie is the phrase 'details are what makes a person'. And it's true. It's not the physical appearance that makes a person, it's those little things that embodies their souls, their character. Those things that may not be as mind-blowing as D-cups or legs that go on for days, but they will stand the test of time. It's not the vessel that makes a person. It's the soul that vessel is carrying.

I've seen this dress on Asos a couple of times and I've put it into my basket every time and taken it out the last minute but on Wednesday  I decided it was time to actually buy it. What was I going to lose? If I didn't like it, I'd return it. If I did, I'd have a little white dress forever considering the fact that I have a crazily fast metabolism and until I'm pregnant, I don't see myself adding any weight. It's actually a backless dress but I don't think a backless dress is appropriate for Church so I put my own spin on things! Indecency is not my portion!

DOUBLE BUN BRAIDS TUTORIAL

Hi guys, I got a couple request to do a pictorial on how I style my braids. I'm not a professional and I've learnt this by trial and error and watching youtube videos. For as long as I have my braids, I'll continue to do these pictorials maybe every weekend. Excuse my ratchet looks, period pimples are the worst! You will need a hair band or something to pack your hair and some bobby pins. As a girl, you should know where to get these things.

STEP 1: Pack your hair into a ponytail (high or low; your choice) but make sure to leave a little portion of braids in the center of the front (preferably)

STEP 2: Take an average portion of your ponytail and twist till the end

STEP 3: Take that twisted bit and wrap it round the rest of your ponytail. Tuck the tails in or secure it with a bobby pin if your like. (I just tucked it though)

STEP 4: Repeat step 2 & 3. (i.e take another average portion, twist and wrap round the braids)

STEP 5: Take the rest of the ponytail and wrap it round the twisted bits till you achieve the picture above. You can secure this with a bobby pin if you like (I still haven't used my bobby pins yet)

Time to deal with the left out hair in front

STEP 6: Part the left out hair into two equal parts or semi-equal parts

STEP 7: Twist the left out bit to the tips

STEP 8: Roll the twisted bit to the side of your hair you like (left or right, doesn't matter) TWICE and hold this bun with your hand to secure it

STEP 9: If you can't hold this part, secure it with bobby pins and tuck the tail/tip of the braids into the larger bun at the back that was earlier created. You MUST secure this with a bobby pin or another headband.

It should look something like this when it's done. I really hope this was helpful.

Have a wonderful weekend

BRAIDED SNAKES

Very rarely do I ever fall in love with things at first sight. I usually consider so many stuff before I buy anything but when I saw these snake print jeans, it was truly love at first sight and I guess it helped that it was on sale. I love the fit and the print. Plus, it is really soft denim so it's quite comfortable to live and breathe in. It is my 3rd day of school and I am already exhausted but I'm nevertheless thankful that I have the opportunity to attend uni as I know in these state of economic crisis, it is a BLESSING! I hope we've all been having a wonderful week so far.

GOTHIC GOOF

I had a girly day out and I wanted to be 'edgy' which explains my outfit. When I was done and I looked at myself in the mirror, it reminded me of the 'goth/emo' people and I always look at them as tough so I decided not to smile for my pictures. But, as you should know by now, that is NOT me. I have to smile, so I forgot all about my 'tough' look and started smiling and being goofy. I can never get into the character of whatever I'm wearing because I don't let the clothes wear me, I wear the clothes.

Initially, I let my hair down to get into the whole rock n' roll mood but damn, it was all over the place so half way through the day, I just did my bun. Anything that inconveniences me is a NO-NO.

"The Christian walk can be likened to any other physical journey that yields profitable results. Imagine walking from London to Ireland to sign a £100 million contract. At some point, you are going to get tired and you'll feel like resting and that's okay but that shouldn't keep your eyes off your destination and the reason for your journey. Resting time is like motivation time. A time when you remember why you started the journey in the first place. Remember, it is one thing for God to lead, it is another thing for us to follow"
