Welcome to spring!! Fashion Friday is Back

Lately I have been in a fenzy looking for everything unique that can spark my interest.

I used to be so unique with my style and for a while I took a step back to focus on more important. Recently I had a look at my wardrobe and realize, THIS ISNT EVEN MY STYLE!!

When life hits you, sometimes it takes away the things in life you love to do, enjoy and can really refocus your mind. Now, I know that isnt the most important piece of who I am, but I enjoy dressing up. Whether its a relax day, or a party dress, summer wear or fun hair do I love it all. So what AM I TRYING TO SAY? Well, don't lose who you are throw the storm! Sometimes life can get so demanding that you lose yourself in the storm. I think this happened to me over the years. I lost alot of my creativity, my will to write more often, more desire to dress the way I normally would with my unique style and love for colour. I lost a lot of me. However what I went through I wouldn't have changed it for a minute because it thought me wisdom, brought me love and brought me back to life.

 Let's get into MY Fashion Tips for Spring:





Statement pieces are a must this spring. I have yet to find my perfect piece in stores, however I plan to keep looking until I find that gem.

Play with textures, and patterns to spice up your look. Patterns and textures done in the right way can really make an outfit


Welcome to spring!!




Colour is everything, I love colour, especially since it felt like winter is ongoing. Have a little fun this spring.
Just chill




For the days when you just want to relax but still look cute, this is something I would definitely wear maybe the jeans wouldnt look so much of a ripped mess, but you get the idea.

Introducing the sexy: LIME OIL *** Hair Care & Skin Care ***

 
After watching a few videos on Youtube and making my detangling potion made of Aloe Vera gel and water, I decided to add just a bit of essential oil. I went over to my local health food store and smelt over ten oils from: hibiscus, eucalyptus, orange, lavender and I came across lime oil. I was intrigue so and  must admit it was so intoxicating. I instantly fell in love. If you have never smelt the natural fragrances I mean the pure essentials oils you must.

So, What is lime oil? 

Lime oil is an essential oil and like many essential oil serves a great benefit when mix with many carrier oils. As shown in the picture above it is derived from limes. I experimented with Castor oil and lime oil for my hair care, often times I would add argan oil. My most effective results was mixing argan oil and lime oil to combat my sudden breaks which I am most cetain was caused by stress.
