i WANT!!!!


i found these "Afurika" earrings by peaceimages while surfing the net, i instantly fell in lust! Im tempted to buy them but they're all the way in California,USA and im in all the way in the United Kingdom that's at least a 2 week wait if i buy them!! The ones that know me reading this know im not a patient person so the wait would kill me lol but none the less i want a pair PRONTO!

If you can handle the wait they can be found on http://peaceimages.bigcartel.com/product/afurika <- for USD $30.00

Goodluck! :)

Hair Aspirations!

Hair


I l.o.v.e the afro hair on, Erykah Badu…. In my opinion she should be put up there (where ever that is lol) with the great “fashion icons” as one of a few great black women style icons!
Even if it is a wig shes still saying to the black women out there that our natural hair is fine the way it is!
The current media has made black women feel the need to have these straight perms and weave tresses which at the end of the day our hair can NOT handle (Look at recent pictures of Naomi Campbell who is visibly suffering from “traction alopecia im for the natural look even if i have to wear a wig lol ;)
LOVE IT!

New Directions

"Each of us has the right & the responsibility to assess the roads which lie ahead, and those over which we have traveled, & if the future road looms ominous or unpromising, & the roads back uninviting, then we need to gather our resolve and, carrying only the necessary baggage, step off that road into ANOTHER direction. If the new choice is unpalatable, without embarrassment, we must be ready to change that as well." - Maya Angelou

My Cosmic Symbol USSR camera


My Cosmic Symbol USSR camera, originally uploaded by nikko_frikko.
not a lot of people know this about me, but i love collecting old vintage cameras. I got so obsessed at one time all i did was go to car boot sales and ebay looking for old 35MM used cameras lol. Ive since calm down and im content with the ones i have (i could do with one more though! lol). But anyway the one pictured is my Cosmic Symbol USSR 35MM film camera this camera is amazing its like a mini SLR you turn the lens to get different angles and focus its amazing i don't know how it does that when its so small lol but i love it, its probably one of the best vintage cameras i've ever purchased!

H&M Manchester Window Display

This is the first time I've actually stopped, looked in awe and have been impressed by the way a shop window is dressed! While walking round Manchester's high street, i unashamedly fell in love with H&M's window display. The way the outfits on the mannequins were styled with the neutral colours made me fall in love with their current collection.

PS. The little mannequin dogs are to die for!

Have i missed something?

Why's everyone in London "allegedly" going crazy for Nicki Minaj, have i missed the memo or something?
i know damn well if she flew in via Manchester airport roughly twenty or thirty people would've turned up to see her lol mehhh maybe its a "London thing" i don't know *kanye shrug*
