Girls rule the world


Good Day All...
This one goes out to all the girls who have been hurt, been cheated on or who simply dont believe that they are special.  Take note, its never too late to change your life for the good and to live for yourself and no one else_ We Only Live Once, so think Twice about what you want for yourself.


We are just girls... we love being called pretty_but we will never believe it.
We not always right_but hate admitting we wrong.
We are almost always smiling_but its not always real.
We can be read like an open book_but yet we hide so much.
We wok hard at things_but don't always get what we deserve....WE JUST GIRLS!

...dont let your happiness depend on something you may lose...


We are not perfect, we make mistakes we screw up, but then we forgive and move on....our sexiest weapon that we own, is our confidence.






Quotes I truely stick by throughout my life, girls take note of this as it has changed my perception on life, the people in this world and relationships:

1. Not caring about what people think, is the best decision you will ever make.

2. You're crying now but you will smile again. 

3. Girls with the most beautiful smiles, have the saddest story...remember, smiling makes others wonder why you are happy #truestory :)

4. "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger...doesnt mean your lonely when your alone"_Kelly Clarkson

5. If someone wants to be part of your life, they will make an effort to be in it.  Don't bother reserving a space in your heart for someone who doesn't make an effort to stay.

6. You dont deserve to be an option... you deserve someone who knows how to make things up again after making you feel bad...not someone who's very good with just the word "sorry".

7. "Keep your head high, your chin up and most importantly keep smiling, because life's a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about"_Marilyn Monroe

8. It's not about who you spend the most time with...it's about who you have the most memories with.

9. Getting over a painful experience is much like crossing monkey-bars...you have to let go at some point in order to move forward.

10. There comes a time in life when you have to let go of all the pointless drama & the people who create it...surround yourself with people who make you laugh, so hard that you forget the bad and focus solely on the good...after all, life is too short to be anything but happy.



These quotes may be easier said than done, but its all in your mind.  If you put your mind to it, you will be able to block out all the unhappiness and saddness in your life...only time will be able to tell. 
Remember that you are unique and special to someone out there...and if you do not think so, close your eyes and bow your head: Your Father believes in you and knows the path that he has set aside for you, one that is built on happiness and blessings, because He loves you more than anything in this world_he will never let His children down.

Facing challenges in life

Life seen through my eyes...

It felt like forever since the last time i blogged my thoughts...sorry about the delay guys, but i promise that i will be making up for it.
For today's post i decided to focus the rest of the weeks posts on my life, what I believe in and my outlook on the world and society (what is important to me).  Please bear with me as this post may be deep and all over the place, but I am going through something at the moment that triggered all these thoughts...lol which I will not be mentioning :)_ Enjoy it..

Before you talk, listen_ Before you read, think_ Before you criticize, wait_ Before you pray, forgive and before you quit, try...



As sad as I am, I' ll pretend to be a happy person like I always am...


Anyone can give up, its the easiest thing in the world to do...but to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart_that's true strength. If they don’t, you know where you stand.



Sometimes it takes losing everything you thought you needed, to gain everything you ever wanted.


Smile and let the world wonder why...

Sometimes you just need to distance yourself from people.  If they care, they will notice.  If they don’t, you know where you stand.


...I love it when I hear lyrics that totally apply to my current situation...

Sometimes experience is what you get when you don't get what you want... you never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have




Don't wait.  The time will never be just right...




I stopped fighting my inner demons...we're on the same side now

I personally get by with a little help from my friends...





In conclusion... life is too ironic to fully understand...it takes sadness to know what happiness is, noise to appreciate silence and absence to value presence.


... stop holding onto what hurts and make room for what feels good...never underestimate your problem or your ability to deal with it

Peace and Love xxx

Fashion 101

"Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only.  Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening." _ Coco Channel

Each and everyone has their own sense of fashion, which is constantly changing due to one's attitudes and perceptions of the word FASHION.  The statement above can be argued in many ways as some people believe the opposite.

From my point of view, fashion is not a style but one's interpretation of what lies within.  You may not be the most extrovert of all your friends, but bright and bold colours that stand out from your completed outfit truely shows how daring you are and how you would prefer to stand out from the rest and not be classified or be associated into groups of common ground.
The latest trend for 2012, are His & Hers items, being in love, living life: young, wild and free, BBM and the Motto amongst the youngsters: YOLO- You Only Live Once.  These trends are becoming more of a "monkey see, monkey do" trend, so that the youngsters could feel a sense of belonging to a certain generation or group of friends.  What happened to our embedded knowledge instilled into our process of decision making when we were younger?

Fashion to me is all about being comfortable, expressing yourself truthfully bearing in mind your values and norms that were instilled into our knowledge when growing up, which clearly defines what is acceptable or unacceptable and what is right from wrong.
Clothing wise, would mostly consist of casual wear during the week and on weekends it could vary up until semi-casual.  Simple yet classy is the look and trend among females.  When dealing with males: SWAG and the GENTLEMAN characteristics are the expression of everyday wear.


In conclusion, Fashion is a statement, not a style.  It does not have to be worn casually, nor outside the runway.  Fashion is fit for all sizes, for all people of all ages.  Its an art of personal self-expression, not an excuse to be pretty, popular and charismatic.
