Daily Wisdom: Live,Work, Create.

A random piece of street art in Williamsburg, Brooklyn which I found particularly inspiring and decided to share with you...

Back To Reality

After an epic two and a half months abroad I'm finally back in London; it's a bitter sweet feeling as although I'm glad to be back home (as in my own house) I could care less about being back in the city! The good news is that I can finally dedicate some time to blogging. I have quite a few ideas for new posts that I can't wait to share with you all, and plenty of photos to share from my travels. I'm also working on a separate blog soley dedicated to my musings which I shall be launching shortly. Stay tuned...

Birthday Celebrations!

I was lucky enough to celebrate my birthday whilst still in St. Lucia, due to being a summer baby I've been blessed enough to celebrate a few birthdays abroad including New York, Jamaica and Aruba. What I love most about spending it abroad is the fact that however you choose to celebrate, it's a new and unique experience, anyway enough with the talking...here's some pics from the day.

St. Lucia Beauty Haul

I'm obsessed with purchasing beauty items abroad, whether it's natural locally produced goods or just a product from a mainstream line that is not available in the UK I'm always on the lookout for something new...

L-R: African Black Soap, Raw Shea Butter, Sulphur Soap, Coconut Oil, Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine Intensely Smooth Leave-In and Garnier Fructis Fall Fight Strand Saver Anti-Breakage Spray.

I will post full reviews at a later date as I have only tried the sulphur soap so far, which I loved: it immediately dried out my spots and bites (my skin had been acting up for a while), the only negative is the scent so I stick to using this at night (whilst sleeping alone of course). 

I swear by Garnier hair products for both my weaves and real hair so I'm excited to try these two products; the Triple Nutrition line is incredibly hydrating especially the conditioner which I make sure I stock up on the USA.

New Nails!

Carnival is over so I needed a new look.

My nails were done by the lovely Mel who also did my lashes for carnival. Find her Upstairs Beauty City, Brazil Street, Castries, St. Lucia. 726-9600.

Don't forget to tell her Megan sent you!

St. Lucia Diary Pt. 4: It's Carnival!

So after an intense morning at J'ouvert, we were ready for the road! As I previously mentioned, it is truly a miracle that we even managed to wake up and arrive on time. Here are our costumes: we were in the Phoenix section in Just 4 Fun, the only item missing are our leg pieces which we hastily put on on the side of the road.
