  • Thou Shall Keep Thy House In Order…

    Thou Shall Keep Thy House In Order…

    I read something funny this evening (ok it may not be funny but I did snigger at the statement). It read, “what a lovely winter we are having this spring”. I know the weather has been pitiful and you may think the phrase “spring clean” far too premature but guys spring is here (LOL) and…

  • Will The Real Men Please Stand Up?

    Will The Real Men Please Stand Up?

    I was recently asked to write something for the men because apparently there are way too many articles for women out there (and to be honest I agree, one only has to look at the shelves in your local corner shop to  see how female magazines dominate the market ) . As I am all…

  • A Fridge Full of Yesterdays

    A Fridge Full of Yesterdays

      Every time this is read, whether out loud or in your head remember that yesterday is dead. Hello my name is today and this is my virtual pen letter to all the delicate hearts that have preserved their pasts in the fridge called life. Like food gone unchecked your ‘yesterday’ rots and then reeks, before eventually…

    P.M.S Perfect. Man(woman). Syndrome.

    It’s only right that I begin by saying Happy One Month birthday to my blog, my baby, my pride and joy.  The journey thus far (I know it has only been a month but allow me this heart felt moment)  has been worthwhile and I look forward to sharing more witty, conscious, insightful and borderline…

  • Light Skin Is The Right Skin?

    Light Skin Is The Right Skin?

    Before I proceed with my actual article I want to ask a serious question. Before Lupita Nyong’o, did you not know you were beautiful? It’s a shame that we live in a world whereby black women feel like they have to draw strength from Lupita and not from an inner confidence. It’s a shame that because…

  • The Power of (something more than) a Crush

    The Power of  (something more than)  a Crush

    ***********DISCLAIMER********** I am not a hopeless romantic. I don’t usually like to dabble in emotional sentiments, I leave that for all the Drake types amongst us ( for your information Drake is my favourite artist, his songs are music to my eyes and so that statement should not be read as a attack on Drake’s…

  • Singleness Is Not A Curse

    Singleness Is Not A Curse

    It’s rather funny that I am writing this post whilst listening to Beyonce’s Drunk in love and no before you ask I am not drunk, neither am I  in love (hence the rationale behind this post) . The fact that  Beyonce no longer makes songs for us single ladies is quite relevant here (that’s right…
