  • It's so interesting how time works.🤔 I no longer have interest in sleek hair styles,it's just not me anymore. It's nice to switch it up now and again, but I feel like I just fade into the background and my big hair gives me so much life and character. 😍 But then again...this is how I feel when I get box braids and I miss my curls..🤣🤣 the magic of having endless possibilities when it comes to hair.😁 #spoiltforchoice _ _ _ #UKafrolista #hair #naturalhair #curls #coils #kinks #uknaturals #naturalista #hairlove #beauty #bblogger #beautyinfluencer #beautyblogger #lifestyle #love #effyourbeautystandards

  • If you are a veteran follower you will remember when I first visited @avedauk salon to get my hair dyed a mahogany colour for the 1st time about 6 years ago!!! 😊 Yesterday I visited @avedacoventgarden to check out their new Rinseless Refresh and Heat Relief products. 😁 _ _ Rinseless refresh™micellar hair & scalp refresher revives and refreshes second-day styles with naturally derived styling polymers that help tame frizz for up to 72 hours – even in intense humidity. Suitable for slightly wavy to very tight coily hair textures. _ _ Heat Relief thermal dry spray protects hair from heat up to 450 degrees during restyling, instantly conditions and infuses hair with calming Shampure™ aroma. I also had a Scalp Analysis done and found that I had a healthy scalp and hair. My hair density was high...of course😜 and my hair thickness was surprisingly thick, because I always felt I had quite fine strands. 😁 @lukeccastillo gave me a beautiful bouncy blow dry in no time!! #HairMagican I dunno how long this style will last because I miss my big hair already but let's have a little fun while it does 😋 _ _ _ #UKafrolista #aveda #avedauk #nowashday #hair #naturalhair #curls #coils #kinks #uknaturals #naturalista #hairlove #beauty #bblogger #beautyinfluencer #beautyblogger #lifestyle #love #effyourbeautystandards

  • One of the many things I struggle with in life is letting go of control.🤔 Especially when it comes to my brand. I find it hard to let others do work for me that I feel I could do myself,but I also am learning that building a team is so vital if you want to achieve more.😏 Today my photographer didn't show up for one of the biggest shoots of my career(announcement soon) and I was in total panic mode this morning.😫 I felt like giving up. I wanted to just pack up and go home...but... Guess what.🤔The show carried on and thanks to my amazing assistant stylist turned photographer using my phone. We got some amazing shots,this being one of them!!! 😜 Sometimes you gotta just figure it out with what you have and keep going.😌 I am learning to let my guard down a bit more and move in the movement. It's not easy..but my life mantra is.... When you are comfortable you don't grow...and guess who is growing... 😁 _ _ _ #UKafrolista #smashboxcosmetics #smashboxstudios #life #love #bblogger #lifestyle #beauty #beautyblogger #effyourbeautystandards #beautyinfluencer #influencer #growth #being #photoshoot #instabeauty #fashionista #fashion #missguided #primark

  • You may or may not know I am a fashion graduate.😁 I remember being in university and everyone was so nervous for Graduate Fashion Week,it was one of the biggest events on the fashion calendar. I had the amazing opportunity today to be a part of the @officialgfw Talent of Tomorrow campaign.😊 It was such an amazing experience.😍 It gave me inspiration to want to get back into fashion... (More coming on that😉) As much as fashion has evolved over the years and everyone is screaming diversity and inclusion, I was the only plus size model and didn't have many options to pick from. (two of my looks were menswear) I remember wanting to do a plus size collection at my university and my tutors were so against it...and I feel that hasn't really changed much in 10+ years.. hopefully it does one day!! 😁 I can't wait to see the final images 😍 _ _ _ _ Coat @venuschen_fashion _ Blazer dress @pres.studio _ Jumpsuit @chelseaflinn.fashion _ _ _ #UKafrolista #gfw2019 #gfw19 #tagyourtalent #wearegraduatefashion #fashion #fashionista #lovefashion #ukfashion #studentfashion #fashionista #fashiongram #plussizefashion #plussize #curves #bblogger #beauty #beautyblogger #influencer #fashioninfluencer

  • Self love isn't as simple as lighting a candle and doing a face mask on a Sunday. It's about overcoming fears and insecurities that you have about yourself and developing methods that assist when they show up throughout life...❤️ I've had flawless skin all of my life,never ever got spots,pimples or blemishes. About 7 weeks ago my skin went into rebellion and I now have hormonal acne. Not gonna lie.. I don't feel 100% myself but I working on it. My face has also been a part of me that I love and this has been challenging learning to feel comfortable in my own skin whilst it does the most! 💖 So many people message me about me being confident and inspirational,but trust me...it isn't everyday. I have my days too!...but the one thing that keeps me going is.. it isn't the end of the world! I will be OK and maybe there is a lesson to learn... Let go as you can't control everything. Just be. ❤️ I want to thank @drmayoni_clinic at @epiliumandskin for giving me insight about my skin as it has helped so much. I am currently have a routine that is working so I do not require product advice. In the world of Instagram and filters... Real life happens and I always want to make sure I keep it 100 with you all because that is my life...💖 _ _ _ #UKafrolista #skincare #skin #acne #hormonalacne #life #love #sunday #lifestyle #uk #beauty #bblogger #beautyinfluencer #influencer #instabeauty

  • Last night with @sofragrance celebrating the new Miss So...? Collection launch. 8 New signature scents inspired by the woman who seizes every opportunity in life with fierce optimism and passion. She strives for success and glamour. She loves and lives by her own rules. She is Miss So...? (Sounds just like me!!! 😁) My favourite fragrance is the Miss So...? Daydream White Chocolate and Pomegranate 😍😍. It has fruity notes of pomegranate and pear, and scrumptious notes of white chocolate and caramel, with a trail of sandalwood and amber. 😁 _ _ _ Suit: @missguided plus size floral contrast collar tie waist blazer andplus size floral print wide leg side stripe trousers [gifted] _ _ _ #UKafrolista #missso #sofragrance #misssofragrance #misssolondon #fragrance #perfume #fashion #effyourbeautystandards #beauty #beautyinfluencer #lovebeauty #bblogger #melanin #blackbeauty #blackgirlmagic #ukbeauty #love #lifestyle #instabeauty #beautyblogger
