OBSESSIONS, REFLECTING & BABIES.

I’ve been reflecting for the last couple of days. This year has so far definitely been one of those where I’ve come to learn a lot about myself and what I want for myself. More than ever I’m determined and I feel insanely motivated by life to push even harder. Also I’ve realized that as days go by I really don’t have the patience for things that don’t add value. I’ve become overly protective of the people I love, my family included. I really don’t entertain any sort of negativity this days. It’s too much for the soul to be honest.  Deep down, I’m also really looking forward wrapping up this year. I’m excited for the coming Christmas holidays and new years way more than ever. PS: I’m definitely getting a Christmas tree this time round. I’m really looking forward to eating all the food I want , running around, etc. I was so sick the last holidays, I barely enjoyed. Barely went anywhere. It was just awful so excuse me if I’m getting too excited a little too early. 

My niece is also growing really fast man! She’s a totally different person every time I get to see her and also quite heavy. Lol! She is also beginning to look more like her mom which has been pretty much her prayer 😀 It’s not  a joke when they say babies bring so much joy in your life cause I can’t even begin to explain how happy this little one makes me when I see her. And also the cute little noises she’ll make when she’s awake, oh my, cuteness overload I tell you.  I can only imagine how I will probably feel when I have my own. 😀

Also, one of my most recent buy’s is this gorgeous Kente fabric I got from my colleague and I can’t wait for House of Fatasha to do their magic as usual and obviously showcase the pieces here. I’m obsessed with custom made stuff really obsessed!!!!! It’s always a cheaper option as opposed to buying ready made and you can always add a twist to it the way you like it. Custom making also gives you the room to bring your pinterest boards to life. This applies to everything, clothes, decor, furniture, etcetera. Try it out and  you’ll thank me later.

I get queries too in regards to my hair. Well, as much as I’d want to brag and lie that this is my real hair, truth is, it isn’t. Sad. Considering the fact that I’m not  a huge fan of full head weaves, I’ve always opted to track and sew instead and have at least 80% of my real hair in the open and just add a few extensions. I use Virgin Gold Peruvian by sleek. The reason I love this hair is because it’s washable, treatable and can be styled differently. It also sheds but minimally so long us you maintain it properly. It’s like real hair basically. I mean it’s human hair. I also save quite a lot cause I get to wear it again and again but only after it’s properly washed, conditioned and treated. Basically, treat it like how you’d treat your hair on normal day. 🙂 PS: I keep my scalp relaxed by oftenly doing a spirit wash. It keeps the dandruff and dampness away.
