Bruno Mars - Just The Way You Are [Debut Single]


i've been somewhat of an agony aunt this week. Helping people out with loads of different dilemmas and problems and then randomly my friend sent me this song, and again i fell in love... its on repeat and i think thats where it'll stay for the next couple of days. on a serious note i think this song is not only perfect but ideal for all those i've tried to help out and i have one word for my fellow followers 9whether you've clicked the button or not) and those who have been sad ... i love you guys just the way you are! like darwin deez made you dance around in your pj's bruno mars will turn that frown upside down !!!

my first post in a while. the stress of work is insane but its the price one must pay to make that muuuullller baby!(sorry young money is blasting through my speakers right about now) but today i had a day off!!! I went with a dear friend to collect her results and those memories came rushing back...sleepless nights, depriving myself of food a basic necessity all for edexcel, aqa, and every other examining board that suck the life out of us as our life hangs in their balance!!! but she did well! thumbs up to all those who got what they wanted!

i was then forced to help my cousin write an essay on mandela and the apartheid, so we made a deal, i'll write points in exchange for a couple of candid shots taken of none other than moi ...
So as i type this blog, (and gorging on some good ol' home cooking! mother dearest is attempting to fatten me up!) i'm hoping there are no grammatical errors.


hope you all had a great day .

The Drums - "Let's Go Surfing" Official Music Video HQ

On one of my previous post saluting menswear, i mentioned that a key trend would be beach boy chic and how i love when my predictions are so so right ! Don't get me wrong arrogance and cockyness are not good traits but times like this i put such stereotypes aside. Thanks to  The Drums and their single surfing beach boy chic has never looked so good. Not only has this song been over played in my house hold and my mum is trying to show off one or two rusty moves (if only i could record and display for but i love her too much for public humiliation- i joke) but beach boy chic is def here to stay.

shoe pastry...

Prepare for a sugar overload my sugar junkies as Loafer king Patrick Cox and our favorite French Pâtissier Eric Lanlard, of Cake Boy, have teamed up to bring together cupcake pieces. Cox, Cookies & Cakes will bring delicious cookies and cakes but also a range of sugary treats inspired by Cox's mother and homemade recipes including Nanaimo Bars. Made from coconut chocolate biscuit, topped with a layer of custard vanilla butter cream coated in dark chocolate ....mmmm delicious (mouth watering as i type!)

With a sweet tooth, (where my daily diet without no exaggeration consists of indulging on sweets, chocolate, popcorn mixed with a meal forced upon me by mother dearest now that i'm no longer living the life of a student) i'm definately not going to miss the opening! I must be there regardless come wind or snow....
Cox,Cookies & Cakes opens september 1st 13 Brewer Street, London, W1 plus check out the opening hours 11am-11pm ! i can hardly contain my excitement perfect for my late night cravings!!!

reunited and it feels sooo good!!

bored out of my mind in the hair salon ..afron hair takes hours to tame!!!
Baby fontaine !!!!
celebrating my sisters birthday ...p.s. she is infact older just a hell of alot shorter ..should have eaten her veg!!!!



I did it!! 2.1 though i was robbed !!!! oh the tears, sleepless nights and endless days and nights in the library .....just look how big my head is ..the cap can't even fit on!

sincere apologies at the fact that i have neglected my child ...i'm a terrible mother but i have a justifiable reason for doing so.... well i hope ...nearly two weeks without an update in that time ...i'm officially a BA HONS GRADUATE in English Literature, though my grammar seriously sucks ...i've partied hard ....worked harder ...became a housesitter with three of my friends, ate half a lemon cake in 10mins (probably less time than that), sipped tea, ordered a new blackberry and the iphone 4 despite being useless with technology, filling in job applications, cinema with the family to see inception..if you haven't already GO ...NOW!!! watched TOY STORY 3 felt like a kid again, attempting to decorate my bedroom and still my father is yet to buy the wallpaper for the feature wall- men you can't rely on them (no offense padre) but the greatest treat of the past two weeks was the arrival of my cousin. SOOO CUTE but this is probably a result of my being completely biased as he family. At present he does not have  name so we refer to him as baby fontaine a result of his surname, but yeah its been fun i'm just sorry i left you for a while as that song goes ( i have no idea who sings that all i know is that its part of my father's vast cd collection) reunited and it feels soooooo goooood!!!!
