Do You Start Your Morning With A Green Smoothie...If Not, Then I ThinkYou Should!

Do you ever find it challenging to eat all of your recommended daily servings of fruits and vegetables each day? Sometimes I do. And, I admit it. I’m a little late to the game on this one. For years I’ve been hearing people talk about adding greens like kale or spinach to their morning smoothies, saying, “You don’t even know it’s in there.” Well, I didn’t buy it. Until, I tried it. Now, greens are a regular feature in my morning smoothies. Here are a few of my favourite blends... Spinach Smoothie With Avocado and...

I Was Always Taught to Make a Good First Impression and For Me itStartswith the Nails!

Al Gore once said "Most people in politics draw energy from backslapping and shaking hands and all that. I draw energy from discussing ideas.”  Shaking the hands of people has become a part of daily routine in my career path. Whilst the industry I work in is still very male dominated, when I'm outstretching my hand to meet in unison with a Client, Contractor or Associate, I always ensure I have a firm grasp (that whole woman in a Man's world type grasp) and of course decorative nails!  Here's some...

My Passion is Styling... What's Yours?!

For as long as I can remember, I've always dabbled in some type of creative form as a hobby, whether it was fine art, creative writing, graphic design, interior design, fashion design... Whilst for responsibilities sake it was never the type of career path I chose to take, it most certainly is my underlying passion. So as I create mood board after mood board this evening; emercing myself in style magazines, Pinterest, blogs, and 5000 images stored on my iPad all as a way of compiling my current thoughts, styling ideas, colour...

Let's just face it friends. Every so often you've just gotta make something healthy. Or semi-healthy. Or just plain sugary like salted caramel and berry pavlova for example. But today we are going with the healthy option... Granola is one of my favorite things to eat for breakfast after a morning workout. A yummy, healthy, and filling treat, with some yogurt and berries or bananas on top? It's been on my list of things to make (along with an iPad full of other things) for a long time! So...

Style Crush of the Week: Julie Sarinana (Blogger and a Fashion Magazine Contributor)

I fell in love with this woman's style when one of her pics made it to the most popular section on Instagram. Now I can't stop stalking @sincerleyjules and crushing on her effortlessly chic style and daily checkin in on her moments captured on her blog. The hint of an army print, ripped denim, leopard print, some gold bling and of course a pair of aviators are all what make her style so inspiring... As Jules would say “Dream, Believe, Achieve”  Picture...

Here’s a little peak into my world...

This is my home/apartment – the inside parts. I thought I would show you it now because it's always in a constant state of change. I like to do new things. So… next up it may well be new sofas, new tables or i'll possibly wallpaper something. I really love this apartment (as a renter) – it’s been a labour of fun and frustrations. The inspiration comes from something I was once told...that "my home should tell the story of who I am and be a collection of the things I love"! Here’s a little peak into my world... Happy...
