Lava "Kelly Green" Pumps

Was in Toronto for the Labour Day weekend enjoying some time with family and friends. Went shopping for a bit and I managed to pick these shoes. This was the last pair and my size too.

Really comfy and the heel is not that high and not so low,something in-between 

Decided on wearing the pumps to a relaxed night out with friends and I paired the shoes with some shorts and Kelly Green top and I was ready to hang out with friends.

Outdoorsy life:Radium Hot Springs, BC

One weekend a few weeks ago we were invited to spend some time at a lodge in Radium Hot Springs, BC. It was a good way to wind down my birthday week and to do some outdoor activities feeling the fresh breeze blow my hair far from the busy city life.

Radium Hot Springs is located close to the border of Alberta and BC, a place hidden somewhere in the beautiful mountains and national parks the West Coast has to offer. the drive was about 3hrs I guess,I slept all the way as I was tired from a long day at work.

All in all it was a good weekend getaway. We managed to take a morning walk on Saturday and later on in the day headed out for a 2hr long rafting experience at the The Kicking Horse River. 

After a day filled with so many activities it was time to wind down by the lodge, got a reflexology from my friend's mother,quite relaxing feeling I had there,sipped on some Skinny Girl Rum (delicious drink) and danced some music.

Dress - Ross

On our drive back to Calgary we spotted some mountain sheep enjoying some berries right in the middle of the town. Talk about close contact with the animals.

Another year has gone by and I am thankful for all that has happened and more to come.Unlike other years this year my birthday fell on a Wednesday so I couldn't do much during the week. All I could do was spend the day at work and then dinner later on in the evening.

Enjoyed the night and the company and above all my meal unfortunately on this occasion I didn't take any pics of the meal. :-(

Heels- Le Chateau

Tuku Time = Fun Time

Was so happy when I heard my favorite musician from back home was coming into town to play at The Afrikadey 2012 held at the Prince's Island Park,Calgary.

Had a good time at the concert too bad he only played for an hour. I picked out my favorite jumpsuit because it's comfy and it was a rather hot day.

Dots by Marc Jacobs

Celebrated my birthday yesterday (15August) and this is what I got from my sis Sasha.Love love it.

Dot Marc Jacobs is described as Chic and Charming, a lush floral bouquet of beautiful jasmine and juicy red berries.

Love the shame of the bottle and the packaging too.

Thanks Sasha a toast to getting older and appreciating life and all that it brings.

Amato Gelato and Short Jean Dress

Hot summer nights call for two things, comfy loose clothes and something to cool one down. After a long day outdoors, watching a soccer game there was no better way to wind down. We headed out to the only place I know that serves the best gelato and ice cream in Calgary. I know I know I'm new after my move from BC to AB but I know one thing for sure this is the place to visit for anytime dessert.

Dress- Winners

Sandals-Joneve

Here is what I wore, something perfect for a night out chilling and enjoying the best dessert in town.

For my dessert I had Mandarin gelato,it had a sweet and tangy tangy taste to it and really enjoyed it. We sat by the patio and just chatted the night away.

Earring Haul

Recently moved to a new province and was not busy Friday so I decided to visit a few boutiques to see if I could a few items. Didn't have anything in mind was just in for a surprise and this is what I found.

 Orange squared earrings

 Green leafed earrings

Triangle Turquiose earrings

Can't wait to pair them up with different outfits

Summertime:Color blocked Maxi

The days are getting warmer which calls for dressing in clothes that leave me feeling comfortable the whole day. I paid the mall a visit and stopped by Forever 21 just to browse through and ended up leaving the store with not one but two maxi dresses.

I was going through some of blogs and noticed another blogger had the same dress and styled it differently too. Check out how the other blogger styled it Channing in the City. I styled it differently with a thick belt,wore my Steve Madden platforms and was good to attend church.

White & Blue Affair

July days are supposed to be warm and summery days but for some reason this year Summer decided to arrive yet.So much to looking forward to summer time and only getting rainy,cloudy days. These pics have been sitting in my archives for the longest but I finally came round to uploading them.

This is what I wore to church about three weeks ago ,the day when we had to pray and thank God for  my birth country,Zimbabwe. I was picked to represent my country and stand in front of the whole congregation and say what we Zimbabweans are particularly thankful to God about.After church we had to rush to the airport to drop off a friend who was flying out to the motherland.

Buntzen Lake Picnic

Miss Swaziland and I

Miss Kenya and I

Canadian geese(had to stand far in case they felt threatened and attacked me)

Having a barbecue was not one of the plans I had in mind for after church hence the whole African attire look at the lake. Day turned out well considering this was a new barbecuing spot for a bunch of us. Taking a day to drive out the city to a place where we can all connect with the outdoor life and chill with friends ain' t a bad idea at all.

Love the blue long African dress, my friend had it sewn in Kenya and I had mine sewn in South Africa.
