A lifestyle, travel and fashion blog
Hello again fashion giraffes today's fashion post is an OOTD on what I wore in Bali. I thought maybe it can inspire you if you're visiting a hot climate for your summer holidays. Or, if you're going through a heatwave this might help you.
Happy Friday lovelies! Yes I know it's not Saturday but this is an extra post for you! I've teamed up with Zen from Hapiness Wherever to bring you some easy diy projects. Our first project is boho chic!
Haggling isn't something that is the norm in the western world. You go into a store or shop and the price you see is usually the price you pay, unless there's a sale on. If you visit a market stall, you may be able to wiggle your way to a lower price but not often. However, if you visit South East Asia, Dubai or Egypt, then haggling is pretty much expected. With that in mind, I'm sharing my tips on haggling that I picked up from one of the besties :)
Hello my fashion giraffes! The UK seems to be finally having a real summer or at least the beginnings of one and that means we need to talk about shoes. If you're new here, then you probably don't know that I love shoes and it's one of my favourite topics. As you can see from the title, today's post is all about espadrille wedges. I think this is the perfect shoe for summer because it goes with practically everything. They're comfy and for anyone who finds it difficult to wear heels, these are a greate alternative.
It's another edition of Travel Thursday and today I'm talking about 3 must see places in Bali. If you follow me on Instagram, you would have seen that I went to Bali and had an amazing time! As you can imagine, I took a lot of photos because the place is absolutely beautiful and I didn't want to bombard you with all the pictures...unless you'd like me to do a photodiary? Let me know in the comments below. So instead I thought I'd share a few of the places I went to in case you're planning a trip to Bali soon!
Hello, my travel giraffes! Hope you're loving this short work week? If you follow me on Instagram (if you don't you should) then you would know that I was recently in Bangkok! Visiting Thailand has been on my bucket list for ages and when I booked this trip last year, it was like a dream come thru. Unfortunately, we didn't get to visit the other islands and remained in the city so we made the best of it. One of the things we did get to do was the Damnoen Saduak Floating Market.
Happy Tuesday and end of May giraffes! Spring is quickly coming to an end and summer will be here before we know it! Today's post is looking at what Italians teach about love. I wanted to do a post about love because it seems as though we need a lot of it. Recent events have hit close to home for quite a few and attacks on innocent people across the world is coming in thick and fast. So this is my small attempt to rebalance some of the hate because quite frankly I don't know what else I can do.
I know we always start the beginning of the year with a list of things we'd like to accomplish. However, I am wondering if this list shouldn't begin during spring. Let's face it, winter is miserable and sometimes really, really long! There isn't a lot of inspiration happening unless your resolution is to hibernate! So with that in mind, here are 5 things I will accomplish by the end of 2017....I hope!
Happy Tuesday lovelies! Hope you're having a great start to the week? Although some days in the UK it doesn't feel like it, summer is on its way. I'm not sure what it will look like in the UK but we must be prepared. Here are my tips on prepping for summer 2017
So my fashion giraffes, it has been awhile since I did an OOTD. I was holding back due to not having someone to take my photos and a camera that frustrates me to no end when it's on a timer. To be honest, I think these were just excuses I gave myself because I felt insecure about my appearance. I admit I fell into that comparison trap and to get myself out of it, I did an OOTD by myself in Salerno with the help of my phone. So without further ado, here's my outfit post on pairing denim and red.
For the May Day bank holiday, I took off for a few days to Salerno, Italy. My lovely friends were flying over from Sri Lanka and I thought, hey why not! As I was on my own for a few days, I had time on my hands so a stroll around San Francesco was in order. This is where I stumbled across Salerno Cathedral.
Anyway, today's topic is all about winging it as an adult. If you're struggling with the whole adulting thing, don't worry we all are!
Happy Thursday my wanderlust giraffes! We’re headed towards another long weekend in the UK (amen!) and I can’t wait to get all comfy and relax. I’m all about being comfortable especially when travelling on a long haul flight. Here are a few ways you can be comfy on a long haul flight.
You know when you've had that amazing holiday, where you ate and drank everything presented to you? Yes, that holiday that you'll be talking about for weeks and wishing you were still there. It could actually take a toll on your body, especially those long haul flights. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the whole process of checking in on-line, arriving at the airport, duty-free shopping, boarding the plane and taking off. I have such wanderlust and I'm always looking for the next trip. However, as much as I enjoy it, I know that flying can take a toll on my body and post flight
Happy Saturday my fashion giraffes! Today I have a styling post for you incorporating one of the hottest trends of the season, which is pink and red! You may be thinking that this is way outside of your comfort zone but, I have found a way you can try without it being too much.
Short work weeks are the best! It's Thursday already, which means two things; the weekend is almost here and I have another travel post for you :). Today's post is what I learnt about solo travel. I'm not sure if you noticed but I went to Barcelona on my own. It was my first solo trip and I thought I would share with you what I learnt, in case you were thinking of doing one yourself.
Oh hello, beauties! How are you coping with your first day back after such a long break? It's a struggle! Hopefully, today's post will perk you up a little bit, especially if you're a skincare junkie like me. If you read my last post (here) you would have seen that I went to Barcelona for my birthday. I decided to take the travel sized Caudalie products I bought last Christmas (here). So let's get into my thoughts of travelling with Caudalie.
Hello beauties! How have you been? As you can tell from the title, today's post is my Barcelona photodiary. I decided to share a few photos of the few days I spent in Barcelona with you. It was a special trip because it was my very first solo trip and it was my birthday! I hope you enjoy!
