Hey beauties,
How are y'all doing? I've been so lazy lately, but i've made sure that hasn't interfered with the blog postings! :) 
Anyways i should also tell you the truth, i probably had the worst time ever shooting for these pictures. Firstly, the proposed location could not be used. As if it wasn't bad enough that we had to use a building by the road side, can you imagine that it was ant infested? GOSH! I think you already know how it ended, i danced for like 10minutes with those ants all up in my shoes and shorts. I decided to take a few pictures sitting on the car, and i was done for that day.
Worse still, i seldom like my pictures, but i didn't even like any from the shoot. Hence while i'm uploading only two pictures. lol now you have some behind-the-scenes of what bloggers go through.

I'm loving those wedges from Zara, although they are honestly super uncomfortable, might be worth getting in a size bigger than your usual size.The shorts from there as-well, is super comfortable, and have become my go-to this summer. My staple hat? i'm finding it very difficult to do-away with it for now, i'm sorry if you're bored of it already :(( 


Now Let's get philosophical..
I had the opportunity of visiting a local market yesterday and i enjoyed every minute of it. It was a surreal experience, so much energy, vibe and hustling. Giving up was a luxury most of the traders could not afford. They survive and live on less than what you have. We complain and want so much, but fail to realise that we have a lot we need to be grateful for. What else are you still complaining about? I want you to take a moment to say 'Thank you Lord for all i have' because you definitely have more than enough.

Ripped jeans and white

There's something about wearing white, esp in spring/summer that looks fresh, clean, crisp and classy. I unconsciously find myself having at-least one white item to complete my recent looks.

 P.s- who knew bandana would find itself back in stores years after it was labelled "un-cool", i definitely couldn't resist the urge to buy this from the recent or not so recent River island collection.
I was having way too much fun with the colours lol
Hair tie: River island || Shirt: Bank fashion Out of stock, but similar here || Blazer: M&S || Jeans: old, but simiar here  || Sunglasses; Celine, similar here || 
Watch: Marc Jacobs, similar here: || Shoes : Similar here || Other accessories: River Island, H& M, etc 

Want to re-create this look? i've linked the stores above. And i couldn't find some of the items online, in which case, i've linked very similar items. Happy Shopping, thank me later :)

Now lets's get philosophical...
I took the time last week to actually analyse the Instagram pages of well, you can say the people i sort of admire, and yeah, i found myself having read through most of their comments, actually looking through the pages of their "haters"/ people who left hateful/spiteful comments.
I was amazed at how 90% of their critics were worse off, quite evidently at that, than the people in question. This is no looking down on anyone, and Instagram is one too small platform to judge anyone's life by, but the point however lies in this fact, you need to stop bothering about those who have the most to say about you. No one spends time talking about someone that doesn't intimidate/affect/influence them one way or the other. Easier to understand, let's use  this example, where are all of Toke's Makinwa's haters? Everyday new deal, contract, promotion, God literally shut them quiet himself. I tell you the truth, you need to find the strength to keep being who God wants you to be, and doing what you need to do, God will prepare that table before you in their presence. (see what i did there lol)
Be Encouraged.


God Inspired
Lots of love,
