Work Mode *huffnpuff* [dedicated to Hakz]

Work is in motion [atm steam train motion but we stil movin!]
so quick post and I'm out!

Deadlines always make me work my ass off...
I'm a very chilled individual, people ask me why I dont stress...

Of course I do! I just dont stress until I have to start the sleepless nights.

#09memories: Gone were the times when me and Hakeem would aim to get out of the house by 10am, (with no real aim but to try and find some unique bargains!)
End up driftin out at 12. [winter tym cums and I stil think I can exit my house in knee highs and blazer...]
So after a good rummage through Hakeems stuff I'm a bit more suitable for such weather.












Story Behind the Snap
Basically beginning of winter and we were on the search for oversized jumpers...Hakeem had finally come to the fact that his back is too broad and torso too long to find his size lool!

I found this beautiful one in Beyond Retro but wasnt in the mood for splurging my just recieved student loan.
So exited back into the bitter cold with nothing but Hakeems clothes on my back.



Hakeem is one my closest friends, similar and different. Beautiful photographer studying fashion who really just wants to pack his bag, kick out to New York, take snapz, find love and be the leader of a cool indie rock band! Loool!
I bet hes smilin right now hahaa! (didn't even know I was writin this but hey!)

You can find him ranting @ www.twitter.com/TBGK


p.s. these snapz are copywright to him only!

Oh shet i forgot!!




So i slyly forgot part of the reason for making this Blog...
to share with y'all my everyday apparently "questionable" outfits

Soo I had a gander through my computer to find a lot more hairstyle snaps than looks??
And i'm useless at packing! (I always have to leave something pretty necessary to my life in every destination...)
Long story short I left my cam wire in London!!
But hey found a couple snaps my good friend/roommate Hakeem took of me and 1 2 I took playing around with mums new cam in that her tiny vehicle.
I love it! Its my new favourite toy. Its so much lighter slash portable than mine, I havent put it down for the past couple of days now!
Im deliberating taking it back to London with me but it was an early xmas present from my dad so we'll see...





Oh plus I seem to have an obsession with motion and night lights at the moment..
I'll show you some of my snaps soonish!
