staying positive | I Want Your Style

Life is what we make it, I can’t stop smiling! I made this video so I can share my tips of how I stay positive, I am being honest and this didn’t come from a course or a book… this came from experience! I have been through a lot in my life and I have finally found ‘me’! I don’t act a certain way to make others happy, I say it how it is and I love my life! I choose my friends wisely and share my personal issues with people I love and care about as I know they will give me the best advice.

Look at your life and the people in it, are these people bringing the best into your life or causing drama? Before we blame everyone else… look at yourself… what do you want in life… it’s your picture.. your story…. your painting it and writing the story so you get to include who is and who isn’t in it!

Everything happens for a reason and remember there is a lesson in everything! Be wise, smile, enjoy and don’t take it so seriously!

Have an amazing day, don’t forget to keep your eyes peeled for my new youtube video on how I curl my hair…. new vlogs and a new haul! It’s summertime in London (finally)….. have an amazing day and enjoy life ! XOXO

Like on facebook, tumblr, youtube, instagram and twitter!

Sometimes I write about fashion…. what I do…. film a bit of street style and rant about make up and then get a bit emotional and ‘in the zone.’ Today is one of those ‘in the zone’ articles….. It’s getting to the middle of February, well it’s nearly the middle of Feb and I think Drake’s YOLO saying ‘you-only-live-once’ is being over used by a certain genre of people….. aka idiots!

The point I am trying to make is every once and a while we need to stop struggling and carrying too much stress on our shoulders and realise how well we are doing. Sometimes we don’t give ourselves enough credit on how well we are actually doing, the new year resolutions were thrown out last month and we just get caught up in this stress bubble. I have just smashed my little bubble taken a few steps back and slapped myself with a happy pill! Let me inspire you… make today an amazing day! We don’t realise how lucky we have it, sometimes I just need to stop caring and RELAX! I personally over stress… I need to do this and that and at this age I should be doing this… now the life is a non plan! See where life takes me,if this time next year I am living and working in Paris…. NYC…. or still sitting in my room… who knows! Smile, laugh…. do something new!

A few steps to a new YOU:

1) Stop caring what others think, I know quite a few people who care way to much about what others think of them! I understand that its relatively important maybe at work etc but in life just do what makes you happy! People pleasers always end up sacrificing their own happiness to make others happy! Put YOU first and smile… at the end of the day you have to live with yourself for the rest of your life so just stop….. listen…. breathe and go do that thing you have been putting off for ages wether that is ‘you’ time…. getting that new bag… baking…. going to the zoo… whatever it is just do it and stop caring what other people think!

2) Smile… I literally can’t stop smiling….. maybe my mum mixed my vitamin pills with happy pills but I am just in such a good place at the moment….and when I mean a good place I am not sitting on a beach… I am just happy with what’s going on….and my happiness is not dependant on a man or another person I am at peace with myself and taking the time to do things that make me happy! It’s my life…. so I will do things that make me smile…. yes that includes eating lots of cake… staring at tumblr (whatshouldwecallme)…..laughing uncontrollably with my besties and convincing my mother that we NEED a pug!

3) Positive people … place yourself around people that bring out the best in you! We all have acquaintances … but you need people that after a terrible day make you laugh! The friends that believe your crazy ambitions and tell you to reach for the stars… not the friends that laugh at your beliefs …. you should be able to count your true friends on one hand! …

4) Be Fierce… as silly as it may sound … be fierce… be daring…… smile… be outgoing…. talk to that person… laugh….. just DO it … ooze confidence and keep smiling…fake it until you make it ….. I am all for strong vivacious women! I love people with confidence they excite me… but there is a fine line between being confidence and being arrogant!

5) Everything happens for a reason… LEARN LEARN ABSORB and LEARN… don’t be one of those people … ‘oh why me’….and ‘drama follows me’…. it doesn’t! Sometimes we need to just accept that things happen for a reason and that should change our perceptions on things! Sometimes these ‘things’ can change our whole lives… I have been through heartache…. loosing loved ones and all the other jazz but it’s what you do when it all goes bad that makes you the person you are! Pump up some Whitney … at this moment in time I would request ‘I’m every woman’ or maybe even the Rocky theme tune! Just don’t let the bad times get you down, we are all here to learn and to shape ourselves into the best people we can be!

BE YOU…. don’t try and fit in… don’t try and be something your not! We love our friends and family because we can be whoever we want to be and they will accept us! Life is really too short to be shedding tears… and the people who are worth our tears won’t make us cry!
