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.

Jacamo Men’s Fashion #casualwear

Earlier this week I introduced Jacamo, the one stop online shop for men’s Fashion which is affordable and fashionable. My father went for the formal look in purchasing these gorgeous formal brogues shoes. Whilst my brother trendy Nike trainers for his daily morning runs and these where perfect. Initially he wanted the black because he never dated other colours but his glad I made him choose the red trainers. First thing he mentioned when I asked about the trainers was how comfortable they are. For the last year or more my brother has really gotten into his running and these were just so perfect for him.

Jacamo as previously mentioned not only has affordable and fashionable men’s Fashion it has something for everyone. Take my brother and dad for example, they are two totally different individuals where fashion is concerned. My brother is the more up-to date and trendy young man and my father, well forgive me dad, not so fashionable. I feel I take my father’s light approach when it comes to fashion, it has to be comfortable. There is nothing wrong with that and like me he has more fashion misses than hits. 🤣🙈😂

Ethical Trading Initiative

With making fun of my own dad, its good to learn Jacamo is part of the ethical trading initiative {ETI}. Jacamo is proud to work with suppliers who provide the safe working environment for those making the  clothing. I think any company which is part of the ETI and makes it part of its core code of conduct is a company worse investing in.

Checking out the website, I found it easy to use and find items. You can search for items if you know what you’re looking for or use the menu options available. Shipping of products seems to be fairly quick and easy, for £3.99 you can request next day delivery. You could request delivery on nominated day or you can click and collect at your nearest store. Which I think is definitely practical especially if you find it more convenient to collect than pay for delivery.

Disclosure: This is a collaborative post, we chose these trainers in exchange for an inclusion in A July Dreamer post. All opinions and images are our own, please see our disclosure policy for further information.
