Quelqu’un M’a Dit


                                On me dit que nos vies ne valent pas grand-chose



                                Elles passent en un instant comme fanent les roses

                                    On me dit que le temps qui glisse est un salaud

                                          Que de nos chagrins il s'en fait des manteaux




So, the song in the midst the pictures is by the French presidents wife, Carla Bruni. And excuse my french..but its a cute love song the title means " Someone told me". The few words basically say I am told that our liuves are not worth much. It  passes in an instant, like wilting roses. I was told that time that passes is like a bastard that cloaks himself in our sorrow/grief... Its a really sweet song.
I don't mean to make you take a notebook and look back and find a sense of solitude where you are alone with your thoughts and all that deep ish. Just to grab life by the horns and conquer the bull.

In the past few weeks, I went to Zambia for a wedding. I got the ELLE internship starting in June (yay). I had a huge graduation party thrown for me, I stopped and counted my blessings.

What has happened to make you look back and make you thankful for love/life/happiness?

Outfit : Black poofy skirt (yde), Black pumps (zoom), black net hat, black top (krush culture).
ps: I dyed my hair, yah, my actual hair... love the change. What do you think?

Hey lovelies!!!!!!!!It's been some time. For those,like me, who celebrate Easter...Hope it was blessed. For those of you that celebrate something else or don't celebrate it at all, I wish this time was relaxing and ur well rested :). I am a sucker for finding treasures that people will disregard. I love the compliment u get when u rock something that would have otherwise been considered 'ugly' or 'unfashionable'. You see, for me, I have re-established what beauty is, beauty is that moment, even if it was a split second, of connecting or  captivation that won't go away-it lasts in your memory for ever...lol. Ok, i'm exaggerating...but it makes an impact. If u know what I mean!!! I always read ur suggestions, comments that make me smile like a shy school girl with the biggest crush,and I really appreciate it A LOT!!!!! Keep 'em rolling. If u want me to chec out a blog or read something..pleasure..don't feel shy, we are friends....VIRTUALLY...lol.

Love u

xoxo

I love how certain colours look on dark skin. The last picture is my favourite of all time.
SO check up on my life these few weeks, went for that interview like the 3rd one still waiting on feedback, but its hopeful. Tommorow I have an interview for a marketing internship at ELLE (SA), its biiiig, what to wear??? Help?! Hope u guys have been amazing, thanks for all the loveli comments and blog awards. Truely humbled. I saw this quote on some super amazing blog. with love & lipstick, that says...'Life is too short to spend hoping that the perfectly arched eyebrow or the hottest lip shade will mask an ugly heart'. . .
