Skin crawl moments don't happen to me


Drapey jacket:h&m
Top:Topshop
Leggings:Cotton On
Shoes:Minnetonka moccasins



Fishtail braid I did 4 days back,and braided them yesterday again!


So so sorry for not blogging for almost a week! Ahhhhh,so busy with the renovations at home and doing up my new room. Nope,it's not ready yet. I'm still in the midst of picking out furniture and small items to decorate my room. I want to make it look cosy due to the small space I have to work with.
The theme you might ask,it's a retro hippies vibe,you all know me. I love love the 1960s so I do hope I can create the same thing with my room. Anyone out there knows any key elements or ideas for my room?

Anyhow,I've been into fishtail braid lately and it's such a easy yet different way to the normal braids.It's not really clear in the picture above. But for anyone who's curious and wants to try it. Here's the video I followed on youtube:)
P.S you realized I'm not wearing accessories. It's because all of them are now kept in boxes.

Hi. I consider you as a friend in my heart. I would like to share that I just lost my boyfriend of 8 years. And I'd like to remind everyone to love every chance you get. Being loved by the person you love most is the most beautiful thing in the world. Life is short. Live it up. Spread the love!

xoxo,
Donna
