Beauty. Fashion. My preoccupations.
I started writing about my adventure in Paris last year and after the first month, I didn’t pick up my laptop again. I’ve spent the last week wondering why that was, and I came to one conclusion: When I moved to Paris I decided to just live. 2018 fed my soul in so many ways.

I first saw Petal Pushers on Pinterest and instantly fell in love with it because […]
New York Fashion Week’s Autumn/Winter ’16 show took place in February and TRESemmé was the official hair care sponsor. I have always wanted to attend NYFW and the one designer whose show I’d give my eye teeth to attend and experience is Diane Von Furstenberg. Diane is world renowned for her wrap dress – a […]
