JOIN ME ON BOMBAY SAPPHIRE GRAND JOURNEY! GIVEAWAY 1x2 TICKETS

A couple of weeks back I had one of the most magical nights ever with Bombay Sapphire. A fusion of Art in honour of Berlin Art Week. The event was held in a Secret Garden (yes we took a bus trip to the middle of nowhere and nobody knew where to) and me Josi stayed all night sipping drinks, talking to Sophia, the curator of the cocktails, and gossiped about the art that was produced in collaboration with Junique. The event really was fun and just one more great of my experiences I've had with Bombay Sapphire.
All the more excited am I for the next event coming up!! And this is where it all gets super exciting guys, because I'm giving away a chance for you to join me!! Keep reading sister, thank me later!

OSHUN BEAUTY EVENT

A couple of week ago I attended the coolest beauty event I've ever been to! Not because it was specially done or anything - trust me in my 5 years of blogging I have been to a whole lotta events, and some have been the craziest things I've ever experienced - but it was because of the energy and the cause. It was special in a different sense.
Dedicated to celebrating the beauty of dark skin the team of OShun called all black girls to come out and celebrate with a special make up session. Yes this event was entirely dedicated to females of colour, but living and struggling in western society, sometimes we gotta do our own parties too!
Remember another woman's beauty is not the absence of your own.
Light skin girls, Dark Skin girls,
White girls, Black girls,
YOU are ALL B E AU T I F U L.

LITTLE GUCCI SOMETHING..

Yet another Gucci purchase! And I haven't even shown you the first. But as I said in my wish list post I wanted to make myself a little gift and I got it: the Gucci SoHo key holder.
I was lucky enough to get the last one of Breuninger. How gorgeous is this little Gucci SoHo keychain? The leather is so soft and it feels very luxe. Not only can I fit in my keys, but it's actually big enough to fit a little credit card, some coins and mini sized lipsticks (like these ones from YSL I often carry with me but get lost in my handbag) without being to big or bulgy.
The zip really is a bonus! I have been thinking about getting a new key holder for a while now, because my old one from H&M has gotten super rusty over the years. I wanted to go for something

BEEFEATER GIN x L IS FOR LOIS

It's my birthday today!! And I turned 23!
In honour of this very special day I teamed up with the lovely of Beefeater Gin to celebrate this very special day! We created a drink especially for me:
THE RUBY G&T

ALL I WANT FOR MY BIRTHDAY IS..

1. MAC// Retro Matte Liquid Lipstick - Recollection 

2. Zara// Mini Backpack

3. Gucci// Princetown slipper

4. Gucci// belt

5. Zara// Choker

6. MAC// Sheertone Shimmer Powder Blush - Peach Twist

7. Zara// Choker

8. Gucci// Boots

9. Zara// Choker 

10. Zara// leather bralette

11. MAC// Antique Velvet Lipstick

12. Yves Saint Laurent// Card Holder

13. Gucci// SoHo keyholder

14. Gucci// Dionysus bag

Can't believe another year has passed. Time is at such a speed right now, I feel like life is rushing me by. I'm turning 23 tomorrow so I decided to post a little wish list here and the blog. Oh and make sure to stop by tomorrow for a little giveaway!

The Gucci SoHo keychain will be a gift to myself, where as the Dionysus, Princetown slippers and boots will be on my list of things I'm saving for this year and the Gucci belt probably my next purchase. I hate backpacks but I'm obsessed with this cute little bag from Zara, as it can be worn like my dream bag from MCM - the bebe boo.  The MAC wants are my beauty wishes that I stumbled across whilst out shopping with my friend Grace. The purple matte liquid lipstick is on my wish list since last week when I saw my friend Julie rocking it (you probably saw that on Snapchat!). As for chokers? I'm obsessed and I want all three packs I spotted at Zara plus very much the Acne choker copy that seems to be sold out everywhere already.. oh well

So yeah these are a list of material things I could come up with to wish for my birthday. But I'm not really the person to wish for things.. It doesn't really matter what it is you gift me and I mean it when I say "I don't mind at all.", after being asked what it is I want. Fact is I will most probably even forget what it is you gave me for my birthday (Sorry!). But what I don't forget is the feeling I had in that very moment realizing you thought of me, you took your time to get me something and that smile and excitement on your face being happy to gift me something..
As for non-material wishes.. My biggest wish is that I find my smile again I lost in the last couple of months. I wish to I find my way, place and purpose in this world. But above all I wish that all lost and broken souls find someone or something to mend their heart. I wish for peace and a little less pain in this world and to never have to see someone I care about be so self-destructive and break anything and anyone good they've got left in the process.

DIESEL LOVERDOSE TATTOO

This post is dedicated to my favorite scent of all times Diesel Loverdose Tattoo. It's my signature scent. I know for a fact that it smells particularly different on my skin. It wouldn't smell the same on you or on friend the way it smells on me. I don't know what it is but the fusion with my skin and probably own odor see for a perfect match.
It's very sexy and smells very pleasant without being too much. It's the right kind of subtle without being lost, the right kind of without being heavy. It's sensual.
I haven't been wearing it lately since I've run out of it, but it kept me for good three years. I still remember the event Nisi took me to during Fashion Week 2013 where the scent was presented for the first time and since then we have not parted ways.
