Live life like today is your last

Life is for living. Don't just dream your dreams...live them. Kiss boys, drink cocktails, wear heels to do the laundry in, dance in the rain, play in the snow, lie in the sun, dance in your underwear, wear your Sunday best on a Saturday, take photographs, make memories and fall in love. Keep your eyes open and take in the world. Fashion surrounds us..as Coco Chanel said, "Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening.". Work hard, play harder. Love from me. x x x

Paris Airport.

Bonjour from Paris - the airport not the city unfortunately! Decided to treat myself to a coffee and cardamon flavoured eclair and a fancy bottle of water. I love how the French manage to make the smallest of things (note: I never though an eclair in a zip-loc bac would ever look chic) look fabulous.

Also trying VERY hard not to purchase a bracelet from Marc Jacobs...not sure if my resolve will hold...


Bisous.



Maybe this time?

















I am feeling very happy right now about certain things which are happening in my life. Bisous.

New Year's Resolutions

New Years Eve. Hmm. Dreaded time of year for me. I seem to be jinxed and never end up having that great of a time so this year I am grateful that I will be safely holed up in a plane heading towards the sunny shore of South Africa to see my mama bear who I haven't seen for 7 months. Very excited. But enough of that...

I am not really one for making New Year's resolutions, I've tried and failed in the past but this year I aim to do the following (and am VERY determined I will get it all done!!)

1. Get fit - I have been extremely lazy recently and I know that I will be more comfortable if I get fit

2. Re-decorate my room 

3. Visit somewhere new - on the list: Amsterdam, Croatia and Prague

4. Take a picture for every day of 2013

5. Stop putting pressure on myself to be perfect. Everyone has flaws and my standards can be too high sometimes

6. Be in touch with my far-away friends more

7. Eat healthier

8. Stop being CYNICAL

9. Appreciate the time I have with my uni friends - graduation is all far too close

10. Stop looking and start enjoying


I hope that 2013 is everything that you all dream off. I intend to GET THINGS DONE this year and realise my full potential, especially with graduation just around the corner....


Bisous.

Sunday 30 December 2012

Well my little blog-guettes my favourite holiday of the year has nice again flown past. There is so much pressure in the run up to Christmas and its always over all far too fast for my liking. This year I was in France for a European Christmas where we skipped the turkey and celebrated on Christmas eve at night. Hope all of your festive periods were filled with love, laughter and champagne. Now new years is not too far around the corner...

Bisous.

Great Chest and Back in 15 minutes



Just a quick motivational blast for myself tonight. Exam tomorrow and I am in full panic/cram mode. I have been sat staring at my notes for the past 20 mins without anything going in so time to pull on my Nikes and get a bit fitter then re-start the revising. Bisous.

Revision time!


Do you remember or did you ever care?










 But now...




 I'm in such a weird frame of mind today, thinking about things which stopped being important long ago even though other things are beginning to look brighter and closer to what I want and need. All very cryptic I know...sorry.

Hate how it gets so dark so quickly in winter, makes me feel so grumpy. Hope you're all having better days, time for me to make a cup of tea (it fixes everything apparently), smile and get studying. Exams soon :-( 

Bisous.
