As I enter the final year of my 30s, I thought I s As I enter the final year of my 30s, I thought I share with you some pictures of mine at 9 months, 9 years, 19 years, 29 years  to today 39 years old of age. Looking back at each decade, I feel both ‘older’ and ‘younger’, I see the change in my features, the change in my way of life, the change in my personality and the experience itched on my face. I am grateful for the life I have lived thus far and excited for the life I am yet to live. 
••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

2026 - 39, (Home, England), I am ready for this final year before my 40s but also ready for this next decade. 
2016 - 29, (Oslo, Norway), this decade was about self discovery and building the life I dreamt about. The life that I am super proud of and truly grateful to be living. This decade, I built my financial life and in later years choose to heal from the trauma gained in the last decade and now I feel well equipped for the future. 
2006 - 19, (Glasgow, Scotland), I thought I was grown (look at the cheekbones 🤣🤣) and ready for the world, chiiiild was I wrong, let’s just say, I am still resolving the trauma the decade brought me but I am grateful because I met my best friends and made decisions for the future I wanted to have. (Spoiler alert - I did better than I dreamed). 
1996 - 9, (Home, Zambia) this was my birthday but my little sister insisted she had to be the one in the middle. The only way we knew whose birthday it was, was by standing in the middle but this year I remember baby sister crying her eyes out and refusing 🤨
1988 - 9 months, (Chililabombwe, Zambia) although my mother looks tired and traumatised😟, I know I was loved and happy.

MUST HAVE OOH ACCESSORIES – Handbag

Ooh Accessories are a company that believes Fashion should be accessible to all. At A July Dreamer we too believe that Fashion Fits All and share many Fashion ideas every Monday. I am someone whose totally obsessed with accessories and every year my mother gives away plenty to the extended family.  For me the concept of too many handbags and shoes doesn’t exist hence why I declutter so often. I like the idea of removing what I don’t use and giving away then replacing with something I will use.

Ooh accessories caught my heart with this bag because it packs a lot. It’s stylish, great but simple design and is just what I need for work. Though not sure how it happened I seem to need more and more of my items at work. But I don’t want to leave them in the office so I walk around with them.

This bag has one main pocket hold, two-small pockets to the wall and one zipper pocket on the opposite. It has an outer zipper pocket which is very handy for keeping keys and smaller items. The straps on the bag are strong and long enough to go over my shoulder without chipping my armpits. There is an extra outer strap for when you want to carry it as a crossover bag. The bag also has a zipper to close and secure your items, it’s definitely a must have bag. 

This bag can be paired with multiple outfits weather for a day out or travels. I am someone who loves roomy bags for the many impromptu shopping trips. Not sure about you but I love impromptu shopping trips and having a cute bag is a must. If you’re looking for an elegantly simple but stylish bag then ooh accessories is where you should be. The handbags are all affordable and are made from quality materials.  Check out the website for more handbag ideas, you won’t be disappointed. 

Disclosure: I was gifted the handbag in exchange for an honest review.

      It depends on the size of the laptop but I manage to fit in my two 11′ lenovo laptops with no issues. I think it can fit a 12′ one too but would be pushing it
