Over the past 2-3 years I have experimented with different hair colours, styles and different kinds of extensions/weaves. I started off by dyeing my hair blonde, as you may or may not know it takes a while to bleach afro hair. The process is not easy, as a matter of fact you have to do it in steps.
1. Dye afro hair with light blonde colour in natural state (Do not relax, texturise etc.)
2. Treat natural hair ( you could use treatment such as: hair mayonnaise, leave-in conditioner etc.)
3. Bleach the hair using just the peroxide powder & cream if you use blue powder peroxide you hair will have an ash blonde tone (if you don't use blue powder peroxide you can get rid of the yellow tone in the hair by using
silver touch or
bleach london shampoo, but it might take a few weeks before you see the result.
4. Treat hair then leave natural hair for 2-3 weeks so that is regains it strength before bleaching.
5. Bleach hair but use vol. 9 max. The hight the volume of the peroxide harsher it is on the hair, leaving the damaged, thin and in the worst case hair could fall out( I talk from experience).
The end results should look something like this:

I must confess I have a serious obsession for Menswear *covers face*. I'm not sure why I do but I just can't resist well dressed men who know what looks good on them and always but in the effort to present themselves well. Is it just me?

It was a lovely day for showcases, fashion shows and blogging. I managed to get a so pictures just for you guys;)

From time to time I look at a number of different blogs to get inspiration, (as a designer) you always need to be on the ball about new trends and styles that are in. Recently I have been looking at a blog called 'mindless vouge', I have to say I fell in love with a post that was made about a black boyfriend crop from H&M that has the word 'Tokyo' written on it. So I began my search throughout all the H&M's I was in reach of:) finally I found it!
Okays so this will be my 6th attempt at trying to upload this post about an amazing vintage shop I found in Camden called 'Camden 69 Lock'. This shop is brand new and it absolutely took my breath away;) I soo wanted to like die! There were so many gorgeous shoes and clothes I wanted to get. Don't just take it from me :) got there, it's in Camden market on the same side as all saints after the bridge on you left had side. (I'm a bit crap with directions so you might need to ask someone lol). The founder and owner is looking for some fresh young designers to sell their clothes in store so go there and give him a shout if you are up for it!
