musings of a twenty-something bilingual
I can't quite remember from where, but I heard that nudes are the colour to work this season. This all seems a little obvious, as it's a constant trend, like camel, which works its way into everyday style. However, I do think donning a lot of blush and neutral tones can be really flattering, as shown in… Continue reading fashion :: multitonal
So for a while now, I've been feeling like myself again. The last few months have been rather turbulent but things all going well in all aspects of my life. The topic of this post has literally come at the perfect time. Praise the Lord. This post by a fellow blogger really inspired me to feel… Continue reading faith :: nourishment
The await is over. Ivy Park, Beyonce's fitness wear line for Topshop, has been released. I popped into the Topshop store in Wigan this week and had a look at the collection for myself. Although not there in full, the range was great. Lots of styles; a simple colour scheme of black, white, grey and… Continue reading fashion :: ivy park
Destination: Rouen I'm off to France for a few days with university on a bit of an immersion-into-the-language field trip. We're doing quite a bit of sightseeing and visiting different parts and places of Normandy so what I wear is going to be important. The weather in Rouen isn't going to be much sunnier or… Continue reading fashion :: four days away, what to pack
Since being home from university, I've experienced all kinds of emotions. Distress, happiness, stress, excitement - just to name a few. And what? I've been back like a week. Before coming home for Easter, which is like the one thing that kept me going, I ended up with tonsillitis. The whole thing made no sense… Continue reading faith :: forgive

This mint green sheer shirt comes from H&M and I adore it. It is a little fitted around the bust so the cut… Continue reading fashion :: minty
The weekend just gone was as lovely as anything. I had a date with a guy called Bradley, perhaps the sweetest guy ever (hello you reading, lol cheese.). We had a little run (in the car obviously Bradley like come on, I don't run) up to the Lakes, settling in Bowness on Lake Windermere. … Continue reading life :: cherry cola
So I finally got to see the girls again after a long two if not three months away from them. Long time right?! We were off to Chiquito for a belated birthday meal for Rachel. I genuinely think it's my favourite chain restaurant, never had a bad meal there and I recommend the ginger mojito,… Continue reading fashion :: checked out
The first thing I do when I come home from university for any length of time is jump in the bath. For one, it makes me feel clean. And two, who can resist a good bath. Nearly two weeks ago my darling lil' sister turned 14, and one of her presents de moi was this… Continue reading beauty :: lush night
I DEDICATE THIS POST TO ANY GIRL WHO HAS EVER FELT UGLY, FAT, ASHAMED, WORTHLESS, USED, ABUSED, MISTREATED OR NOT APPRECIATED. "Be brainy, be inspiring. Pretty is useless." Time upon time I do not feel pretty. It's common, isn't it? You put on your favourite outfit on a day that you're feeling low and… Continue reading life :: pretty is useless
