Happy Friday everyone! We made it! If you missed it last week, I’ve introduced a new blog section, “Saved To Favourites”, a section highlighting things I’m crushing on, waiting on, reading or trying out!
Hope you love them as much as I do!
SHOE PORN
I’m in love. I’ve always been an old soul, but now it shows in just about everything I do and buy these days. My friends call it “old”, but I just call it classic. I’ve had these Chanel slingbacks (not this color) saved to my favourites for months but I never had a chance to try them out. I’ve been on the hunt for a pair of durable, classic, mid-length heels and of course, when I saw these babies, I fell head over heels, literally. I have very narrow feet, so I needed to try these on. I’m normally a 7, but because I have super narrow feet, the 6.5 looks 10x better. If you’re thinking of getting these, ensure you try them on, and the leather does stretch over time, so take that into consideration. They’re so gorgeous in person, but I can’t justify swiping $800…yet. A girl’s got priorities!!!
ANIMAL INSTINCTS
Ladies and gents, it’s officially Fall and I’ve been seeing a bunch of trends popping up that I’m in lurve with. Truthfully, I don’t need a season to dictate my wardrobe but leopard is literally everywhere this season. I’ve fallen in love with a few pieces from J.Crew, that you can wear just about anytime and any place. Now, to decided which to purchase! Help me decide!

PATIENTLY WAITING
Growing up in the Caribbean, there’s no way you could escape hearing the songs of one of the most prolific reggae artists, Buju Banton. Thanks to the bus drivers, his Til’ Shiloh album became the official soundtrack to my ride home after school and it made him one of my favourite artists. I can remember vividly the day he was sentenced to 10 years in prison, and I can still remember his electric farewell performance in Miami, because I couldn’t miss it for the world. This December 8th, 2018, he will finally be released from prison and it was announced this week that he will kick off his Long Walk To Freedom Tour in Summer 2019. I’ve blocked out my calendar and I’ve picked out my outfit already because I’m so there!

Enjoy the weekend! xX
