Inspire to be Inspired

A great photograph is one that fully expresses what one feels, in the deepest sense, about what is being photographed. Thanks Reme for sending the wonderful pics. Pics were taken on the streets of Girona, Barcelona, Spain. Look and think before opening the shutter. The heart and mind are the true lens of the camera.

Enjoy the pix

Love

Fashion Friday: Accessories

Fashion Friday! I’ve been out of it this week. Mind occupied by a lot of things.

My birthday is around the corner. I know I said I won’t plan or make a fuss. I’m not fussing but I’m planning a lil something on my birthday weekend since it will be on a Monday 25 July and maybe take a day off work.

Anywho this week’s Fashion Friday, I thought it should be on accessories. I love accessories, earrings to be specific…whenever I go shopping I always buy a pair. ALWAYS! For me shopping does not only mean going all the way...buying a pair of earrings can be enough sometimes. My favorites are clip-on’s and studs! So took pix of my stuff…mostly earrings since I have a whole lot of those. I got tired after a while. I had to stop!

People always ask me, how I find time to update my date. Maybe in the next post I should give tips lol…look who’s talking, me giving tips already! Yes!

Happy weekend!!!

This took less than 10min to update!

Kooty's Trip to Thailand

So I asked my friend Kooty to write something about her trip experience to Thailand! And this is what she had to say…looove how you write Fruity!!! I was faced with a challenge of picking a few pictures out of 1500! Beautiful pics now I wish I could disappear to an island or somewhere!!!!

" There are hardly any words to describe this adventure of love,however I will try not to cheat this experience with words,here it goes:

Kooty goes to Thailand

The funny I was neither scared or excited,I just had this nagging feeling I had to do this trip NOW,not next year not in six months but NOW!

The first warmth was experienced as I entered the 9hr flight; the hostesses were full of smiles! The food was divine! The seat perfect, the toilets extremely small for my pointy knees! Hehehe.

9hrs later, landed at Shir (something something) airport, I walked right pass the short Thailand man frantically waving my name, to the tour guide booths! Booked myself a tour of the temples (thanks to my twenty Thailand books I bought prior to the trip).

After my small accomplishment, I stood right there at the booth like an idiot not knowing what to do...lol!

“Kwaaatttaaalllaaa” (someone shouts in the background),lucky being the only African in the entire airport, the energy filled short Thailand man put one and one together, stared at me and kept shouting my name!hehehe!

I felt love EVERYWHERE! People were super friendly, super helpful. Every time I was lost,I would stop and ask, then happily they would grab my hand, walk extremely fast, duck and dodge all the market stalls and people, to my requested destination!

The temples in Bangkok were AMAZING! The shopping broke my bank card in half, the night life was ALIVE!!! The fashion was on point!

The beaches in Phuket were BREATH TAKING! The elephant rides, the snorkel, the islands made me say over and over again: HOW GREAT THOU ART!!

Thailand is truly THE LAND OF SMILES! I never felt alone,made friends every minute!!!

The world is there for me to explore,next stop Singapore, Hong Kong and Malaysia in one trip!!"

  

 

   

Thank you for sharing Kooty!

Mwas much love!!!!
