Winter Sun: Five Days in Spain

It’s December 2024, and London is cold, muggy, and dark. School has called it quits for Christmas break, and you’re feeling the impact of Vitamin D deficiency. What’s the best cure? Winter Sun, and instead of breaking the bank to fly home, I decided to take a trip to Barcelona!

Study Break: Three Days in Budapest

It’s November 2024, and LSE has given me a week off school to ‘Read’. What do I decide to do? Pack a backpack and book a cheap round-trip ticket to a European country. I board a flight to Hungary and try to pack the world of sightseeing into 72 hours with 4 of my friends. We packed a million things into three days, and this is my attempt to pack those three days into one post and share it with you all almost a year later.

A Day at Sanchi

My first detailed post from my trip to India is reserved for my favourite outing… a visit to Sanchi, a World Heritage Site. The only other Heritage sites I had been to are ones in London and our very own Nelson’s Dockyard in Antigua.

The City of Lakes

Bhopal is a beautiful city with amazing scenery and is said to be one of India’s greenest cities. Bhopal is also home to 10 lakes and is aptly tagged as “The City of Lakes”. In this post, I’ll recap with words and images my picture perfect day trip to Bhopal’s Upper Lake.

Two Weeks in India

Back in 2022, I secured an amazing Scholarship opportunity from the Indian Government to spend two weeks in the country learning about Women Empowerment, Policy and Vocational Training. I had the most amazing time and met amazing women who I still keep in touch with to this day. This post is an introduction, obviously, but over a series of post I will be unpacking how I spent my life changing two weeks in India

Hello : )

,

  So it's been 2 months of braids and it's finally time to take them out. But before i did, i decided to take a couple of shots with a giant hair bun. My brother and i trudged down the road with my trusty camera in hand and got some pretty decent shots. I think i've grown so much and i'm finally starting to look as if i'm about to be 17. I've been so busy with college and trying to keep on top of everything as of late. It's almost time for me to do my 'big chop' and i'm super duper excited. I can't wait to see the difference.

SOLANGE

,

Solange Knowles is no longer basking in Beyonce's shadow. The 27 year old mother has catapulted into a fashion icon, trendsetter, and natural hair guru. Being on top of things and finding herself however, did not happen over night. In an interview with Harper's Bazaar, Solange spoke about her challenges in topping the business and finding her sound and stability.

Fab Finds

  I was doing a bit of internet window shopping and came across a beautiful dress and an amazing pair of shoes on Zara. I decided to post them on my blog since I've been delinquent in posting. I guess that comes with being in college and all, as I've been trying to prioritize my time. But any way, i fell instantly in love with the ensemble so have a look.

BCBG MAX AZRIA: Look Book

,

So, the previous post featured the BCBG MAX AZRIA catwalk images. This post features the Pre-Catwalk images.... i know my order is messed up and i should have posted this one first... However I found the pre-show images afterwards so it's not really my fault. Anyway, when I told you that i was in love with the brand, i meant it. These fashions are so beautiful, and i'm too poor to afford them :). So, take a look at the pre-catwalk photos and leave a comment telling me what you think >>
