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.

{Fashion Monday} June Fashion Favourites

Summer is supposedly here, except someone forgot to switch it on for the UK so summer is a past life dream for most of us here. But that never stops us from wanting to dress more summer like, of course with a brolly and coat in hand. Every month when I share the Fashion Monday favourites I am always filled with joy of the creations I make, I shared a couple of outfits posts in June so here is my list of June Fashion Favourites.

Let me know your favourite and why?

June Fashion Favourites

June Fashion Favourites

Hamburg weekend outfit 

To start the month of June I had headed to Hamburg for a youth weekend getaway, it would have been a big shame if I didn’t share some of the outfits I donned whilst there and how you could recreate them too. My outfits are everything easy, simple and a touch of fashionable.  I believe fashion fits all, fashion is how you feels and your personal style not just what’s on trend though it doesn’t hurt to recreate the “on trend” outfits.

Festivals outfit ideas 

I have mentioned many a time on this blog that I am yet to grace a festival but I so want to. My little sister and I are planning on going to one this year if possible and I figured why not put together a festivals outfit idea and share what I would wear to a festival and some colours I would choose

How to dress your wellies

I was fortunate last month to be contacted by Butterfly Twists to work with them again. Previously I had tried out the Zebra flats and now I got to try the Wellington ankle boots. The ankle boots are so cute it would have been a crime not to share with you how I dressed the wellies and how you could too.

Disney Inspired Outfit

June was the month of ticking off items from my bucketlist. I finally made it to Paris and top it off I ventured to Disney so I had to share with you my Disney inspired outfit. Though I did not go all crazy with Disney pieces I felt for those of us who secretly love Disney would reserve it on the outfits and not on the excitement.

Glamping Fashion Capsule

As I mentioned above, June was the month of clearly the bucketlist. I was invited to Slovenia by Big Berry where I stayed at their camp all-inclusive (except flights) and toured Slovenia. I had to share with you my capsule that I packed for this Glamping experience and I am still reminiscing about the time I spent there and working on sharing with you my personal experience.

Glamping fashion capsule

With so many people now searching for what to update their wardrobes with this summer I thought it appropriate to share a collaborative post on 5 types of summer wardrobe essentials everyone should aim to have. Not all of us will like what’s on the essentials list so we all have to find items that makes us feel good and we are happy to wear day in day out.

And there you have it, my June Fashion Favourites. All simple outfits created with you (and me) in mind, try something out of your comfort zone.

What’s your favourite outfit from my June Fashion Favourites round-up?

    I love how you opened this post, the weather in the UK really needs to make its mind up cause Im fed up of getting dressed in a morning then half way through the day it changes. I love the glamping and Disney looks because they are the style of clothes am wearing at the moment

    I really like clothes with minimal color, that’s why I always wear black or white and that’s usually it. It’s always fun to dress it up with different accessories or shoes. I really like every outfit you have here but my favorite will always be the glamping one because it’s perfect for the weather!

      Thanks so much Elizabeth, though I don’t have much colour in my wardrobe I do love a touch now and again but black/white will always be more dominant
