Post 13: Welcome to LDN

Yesterday Simone, Hilary & I went out and about, we thought we'd be tourists in our own city for a day so first stop on the list was ...(Even I thought it sounded boring when they mentioned it) ...

Science Museum, South Kensington ...(I know right, but taking pics there was actually quite interesting)


The development of the mobile .. and then came the smartphones



This Euthanasia machine (used to take the life of ill people who no longer wish to live) was used to end the life of four terminally-ill people. It was legal in Australia's Northern Territory between 1995 and 1997, since this was outlawed in Australia some countries changed their laws to allow assisted dying.



This was life before our laptops and computers existed, whoa. I remember when I was a kid I had a lil type-writer similar to the yellow one on the left



 That's an apple laptop and the old Microsoft Windows logo

From this ..


To this .. Well done Apple











Aw, a black Barbie doll had the same hair as me







Next up: Green Park & Buckingham Palace






Buckingham Palace



It must be amazing to live in a house like this



London eye in the distance






I had to wait outside the Palace for a bit, the guards said my girl Queeny wasn't home. I did tell her I was comin' over but you know, Royalty ey



This guy was sketching on the ground, it looked so cool

Post 12: WYLAT

DRAKE, DRAKE, MY BABE DRAKE!

On 25th March I went to Drake's Would You Like A Tour? concert ft TheWeeknd and Jhene Aiko at the 02 arena. Before this, I didn't listen to TheWeeknd and wasn't too interested in him either but after hearing him perform live with his tantalizing voice (I've been saying his voice is tantalizing ever since the concert and yes, it actually is a word. No, I don't care if it makes sense or not). I can't even explain how his voice sounded but it was good ... very good. Like, you feel it. Mate, its a ''had to be there'' experience. I love his song The Morning!

DRAKEEEE, on the other hand, this fella knows how to turn the party right UPPP! If you know you're going somewhere with Drake, you just know to expect a turnt up time (Yeah, yeah some of y'all think I'm talking too much like I know him but WHAT-EVERRR *American accent* I do in my head)
Champagne Papi said how London is his second home, aww. When Jhene Aiko came out to sing From Time,  the crowd was like 'yassss!', this lil lady is just gorgeous and has such an amazing voice to match.
Drake did shoutouts to the audience at the end of the concert and I'm pretty sure we all felt like he was speaking  to us directly ey, love you Drake

Below you'll find my outfit for the night (I had to impress Drake, obvi):















Semi-hoop earrings - Primark (£1.50 I think)
Jacket - Birthday present from the lovely Malina, from ASOS 
White camisole
Black high-wasted jeans - Primark
Black boots
Simple, black bag - Primark (£10)

I wore a white camisole with the big jacket. I initially decided to wear a white crop top with this outfit but changed my mind last minute, either way it would have looked nice with the rest of the outfit. I'm wearing black high-wasted jeans, eventhough I'm average height (5'7ish), for some reason the jeans were short around the ankles and if I had gotten a size bigger they would only have fallen down. The thing I don't like is that the jeans were a little big on me around my waist and with no belt loops, I had to keep pulling it up which is annoying.

I love my bag. It has a simple silver plate design and for a tenner, it was very affordable. It looks classy and can be worn with pretty much any outfit. It has a small handle and on the inside it has a longer strap so it's able to be adjusted and worn as a shoulder bag too.

Post 11: RAZAC Creme

Product review

Perfect for perms finishing creme by Razac



I bought this creme in America for $8.99 but I just google'd it and found the same thing on fishpond.co.uk for £29.97 (8oz). The smaller, 4oz one is £13.07. This hair creme is white, it has a smell which isn't too strong. I just apply some to my roots after washing my hair or during the week if I feel my hair is dry. It's easy to rub into hair but I don't like how it leaves my hands feeling greasy, I guess that way at least I know my hair definetely was moisturised with something. I don't like those products that leave your hair feeling dry like you haven't even used anything at all. After using this, I can put my fingers in my hair and feel that it has been applied. I have many other hair products that I think are better though and I'll definitely be blogging about a few of them some time soon.

Post 09: Valentine's lookbook

Zizzi, Canary Wharf

On Valentine's day, me and my girls went out to the lovely Italian restaurant, Zizzi, in Canary Wharf. The food was amazing! I ordered the casereccia pollo picante (basically spicy chicken pasta) and ah .. the taste .. just ah.

Outfits for the night:




From left to right: 
Efe: 
Crop top - New Look (£5)
Skirt - Miss Selfridges (£25)
Cardigan - H&M (£20)
Tights - Primark (£3)
Heels - Primark (£16)

Vanya:
Full outfit - Zara
Necklace - Lola and Grace

Me:
Blouse - a Christmas gift
Wet-look leggings - Primark
Boots - Rainbows (New York)

Malina:
Dress - Random shop but the name of the brand is 'Signature'
Tights and shoes - Primark




Chloe:
Laced-top and black leggings - Primark
Heels - Next


I like the pattern of my blouse as it's a little different, it can be worn with black jeans and heels to get a similar look. I love how Efe wore her skirt with the crop top and blazer, even another colour crop top or vest top would just tie this whole outfit together nicely.
