Hola. Bonjour. Guten Tag. Namaste. Sawadee Ka.

Hello People of The World (Spice Up Your Life!)

SO.
I've just been travelling around Asia and am feeling all culturally engrossed, however the unfortunate truth that is REALITY (yuck!) likes to slap us in the face like a crashing wave. Seeing how people dress in another culture was a real eye-opener, with the Asian ladies wearing layers and layers of jumpers and fleeces, teamed with socks and sandals (still a fashion faux pas!) gloves, hats and long trousers in the 80% humidity. Mind Blowing. How can they do it! After the initial shock, it was soon apparent that this is the done thing (not for sweat bag me!) and that there fashion was controlled by the huge importance of having pale skin. So although I definitely won't be adopting this trend anytime soon, it was an interesting discovery all the same.

Back up in the Deen, as a fashion management student , umming and aahhing over blog names, and getting back into the swing of things.. Here I am!

So I hope to keep all you guys interested and will be bringing to you,  'street style', daily fashion choices, and just things that are interesting me at the moment!

So, as a bit of a random first blog post, I say 'Ciao For Now'!
Til Next Time,
