BLOW 2012 ONE LAST KISS..

It's 31st guys! WOWZA! Last day of the year. I'm lost for words. I woke up this morning and was like wow. I don't know about you but I am here as a product of the grace of God. Like, my life is basically a case of  "if not for God...". 

Thank you soo much for your constant love and support. Let's do this again in 2013. 

This is just a plain outfit I wore to church yesterday. I just didn't want to dress too fancy so it was a tee and jeans kinder day but I tried to make it less boring by adding a few accessories and a patterned coat.

OUTFIT DETAILS

Peplum top // Heels - Topshop

Jeans - River Island

Belt - Asos

Rings - Asos/New Look

Chain - Ebay

Coat - H & M

"With 2013 fast approaching, ask yourself, are you willing to obey God? Or do you just want the rewards of obedience to God? Well, whatever happened in 2012 is irrelevant now. It's time to start afresh. Looking for a verse to hold on to? Have a look at Isaiah 43:16-21"

See you in the new year!

Lots of love

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

HOLIDAY OUTFIT IDEAS...

Hi guys, just thought I'd give you ideas for holiday outfits and how you can incorporate white into it. If you didn't know I love white blazers and I have more white blazers in my wardrobe than I have of any other colour..

I decided to incorporate a bit of my playful attitude into this outfit with my polka dots top that I made myself. Yayy me! lol!

Top - DIY

I have completely strayed away from the dress/skirt approach for the holidays and I am styling leather (faux) shorts in this outfit with a blazer with exaggerated shoulder pads. What do you think? Appropriate or not?

Blazer - Ebay

Top (Actually a dress) - New Look

Leather shorts - River Island

Heels - Topshop

Purse - Miss Selfridges

Which outfit do you prefer?

It's Christmas tomorrow! Yayy!!

Lots of love,

BUNDLED UP!

I write this with stuffed nose, slight headache and chocolates. I have the worst flu ever and I've only managed to dress up a bit this evening after overdosing on cold drugs. How's the holiday and the weather treating you guys? Yup, I took off the weave for a while and I've returned to my natural hair colour.

I PROMISE...

I know...I knoww... I've rocked the life out of this red skirt but who can blame me? Plus it was not my intention to wear it last night. I PROMISE not to wear this skirt till next year which is basically a couple of weeks (haha). I had dinner and jokes with friends to take the stress off uni and here's what I came up with. If anyone complains about the pictures inside my room, I'll know you don't love me if you want me to stand outside in December without a jacket...

Okay, so I got this pencil lace dress but it was not supposed to be as short and tight as it was. Even worse, as short as the dress was, they even put slit there...so if I had worn it on it's own I would have ended doing what I was doing in the picture below on the left ...

....and I certainly wanted to have a good non self-conscious night so I threw on my tutu skirt. I however love the lace detailing and the shoulders of this dress and I will continue to wear it as a top BECAUSE I CAN...I added some chain spikes to my hair because honestly, I don't know how to style long hair because well, it doesn't come naturally if you get me..My shoes are a gift from my friend/photographer. Thank you Lota. Tomi is one very happy girl...Another friend of mine told me to stop wearing my other gold-plated spiked belt for a while or get another one so I got a slimmer version of it.

Top (Actually a dress) // Shoes - Topshop

Skirt - TAP Designs

Belt // Hair accessory - Asos

Here's a collage of what my night was like...

"LOVE others because Jesus loves you. FORGIVE others because Jesus already paid the price for your sins and has forgiven you. Extend the same privilege to others that Jesus has extended to you"

Lots of love,

G.E.E.K.

Been gone for too long? Yeah, I know. I just can't help it when it's coursework season and I've been so drained physically and mentally to bother about taking pictures. Today I woke up a lot more tired than usual...Sigh!

I'm sure you've seen this tee everywhere. I have rocked the living daylight out of it and I got it in a bigger size than my normal size because I wanted a boxy look but I decided to give it a more girl look today by paring it with a pencil skirt. A lot of people think I am a geek and today, in this moment, just because I'm wearing this tee, I'm proudly a geek. DON'T CALL ME THAT AFTER TODAY THOUGH!

ON THE 1ST OF DECEMBER....

...WE REMINISCE ON THE PAST 11 MONTHS...

I was awake at midnight to experience the last 1st of any month in 2012, What a year it has been? I've grown as a person and we've grown as a family (the blog, you and I)...We gained over 200 followers in the short space of 11 months and you guys are just awesome!

I compiled my favourite looks of the year. Which looks of mine are your favourite or which month did I take your breath away more? Let me know what you think. I appreciate very single one of your comments. 

How has your year been? Bad? Well, you have 30 more days to turn things around. Good? You have 30 more days to make it even better. The countdown has begun to 2013. I pray to still be here and still be blogging

I love you guys...
