Jamaica Shoulder/Cross body bag Review

Hey dolls

So today I'm going to be reviewing my new bag that I recently got from bagable. Its Called a Jamaican Shoulder/Cross Body bag, which looks very similar to a 'sactual bag' which you may already know I have a big love for.

So heres a look at the bag.

You can check out the original picture here

Pros
-The bag is made out of a strong sturdy material, so seems as though it will defiantly last long.
-Its very stylish, I'm loving the pop of colour that the Lime brings to the otherwise beige and black colour. It goes with the whole colour blocking which has been in this spring summer season.
- Very spacious, It has 3 big compartments, as well as a zipped section in the middle and back. and individual pockets.
- I also received a few Compliments when I wore it to a BBQ on Sunday
-Only £45 so I think Its great value for money
-The website bagable, had great communication and fast shipping. Which is a win in my books :)

Cons

-More of a confusion then a con, but its called Cross body bag, yet there wasn't a strap long enough to go other my body.

Here's a look at the inside of the bag

I hope you all have a great week

Midi Dress - Style wars

Hi dolls,

Theres no doubt that 2013's biggest trend has been none-other than the MIDI dress. And theres no surprise to this. We've seen the simple design from the 60's evolve into 2013's  biggest hit. I've seen so many in so many styles with a variety of prints and materials used making it meets everyones needs from the more classy - chic to hipsters. Many celebrities who have completely different style's are also on this MIDI DRESS craze which gave me an idea for this Style Wars.

Afro hair and Beauty Live 2013 - Internship

Hey everyone :)

So over the last few weeks I've been working alongside JJ.Rocks and Fashion Meets Music, all in preparation for 3 runway show at the Afro hair and beauty Show Live.

It was truly an amazing experience, I had a great time, meet some amazing people and was able to network. I even got a few offers from hair modelling people :).



Two of the shows both had 5 amazing designers showcasing gorgeous pieces involving floral, geometric, and afro prints one designers collection was even made from tree bark. Below are a few of my favourite pieces from some of the designers. There was loads more but unfortunately when your working you cant take a lot of pics :(

And the 3rd show was a dedication to the British Heart Foundation where we had to put on a Red & White themed show to raise awareness of the campaign. I helped customise some of these pieces so it was a great experience seeing my work go up and on stage and getting a lot of good feedback.

It seemed so weird to be behind the scenes as last year I was visiting (last years post) and this year I could see all the stress and chaos the come with a beautiful show. I still managed to grab some freebies doe :)
Did anyone else visit the show?

I love how simple yet eye catching her outfits are, She always looks amazing and edgy. Yet still knows how to dress more sophisticated and classy for red carpet events. I like how she feels comfortable in pretty much anything and rocks it. Maybe its all down to her amazing figure, or confidence, what ever it is, I always want to have what she's wearing. She's actually up there with my ultimate style crush:Rihanna

What do you guys think of her style?

Sheen Queen

At first I didn't know what to think of this trend, firstly because the material looked very heavy and not quit suitable for hotter weather. But hey in England we seems to still be in the winter/spring stage lol so it might not be a problem.  But after searching around on the high streets take on it I found a few beaut's which I think look gorgeous and bang on trend. 

1. Embellished Vest top: Asos - £30 / 2. Foil Skater Dress: Topshop - £60 / 3. Silver Stud Hightops: newlook - £49.99 / 4. Skater Skirt: Asos - £55 / 5. Origami Playsuit: Topshop - £25

What do you think of this Sheen Trend?
