Taking Stock || August Notes x A Style Post.

Yooooo! Happy New Month Guys!


Oh wow! I see December around the corner already. In my last recap post, I said I wasn’t sure if I like the speed at which this year is going and it needs to calm down but yess, zoom off 2016! Zoom Off. Lol



I’m taking stock for this past month again but before I get into it, I just want to say THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH! for all the well wishes in my last post. I haven’t been able to reply all of the comments just yet but I definitely will. Thank you!!

Making : 2017 Blog plannerssssss! Spicing things up a bit more for you guys! If you will love to offer your opinions/make suggestions for this new one, be on the pre-order list plus get a special discount for the planner, sign up here.

Eating : And making breakfast a priority, unlike the previous month because I need all the energy I can get to keep myself going during the day.

Drinking : Nothing fancy. Just water. Meh

Reading : This 110 slides CPR note because I failed (by their standards lol) my MCQ and have to retake it . Bleh. I passed the practical though before you people think I’m not a smarty pant. Lol 

Update : I passed my retake!

Wanting : Lots of goodiessss! I’ve been having cravings for sweet things recently. Not a good thing, for someone who just had an RCT  (root canal therapy) done on a tooth. Unfortunately, not even that can break the love I have for chocolates.

Playing : Intentional by Travis Greene. This song gets me in my feels and reminds me that God has got me regardless of how hazy things might look.

Wasting : Lots of time in getting all the things I need to get done, doneee! Like my tote bags! And the one million other projects I have in mind. *sigh*

Creating : More contents in advance for the blog. Just in case, I get too busy. 

Wishing : I didn’t have to constantly explain my love language to a particular someone and that they can just get it once and for all!

Enjoying : The bits of free time I’ve had this week. And Telemundo!

Loving : Myself more every day.

Wondering : What to wear to work  and also how I’m going to have to rush home and back after my call (basically means I’ll be working from Thur to Friday and back to work by 8am again) , seeing as I didn’t get accommodation in my work place.

Hoping : For a wahala free house job year and that I get accommodation in Luth.  Also, hoping to find someone to help me take blog (outfit) pictures πŸ™

WorkingOn my mindset to prepare for the road ahead and on myself too.

Wearing : One of my old woman skirts and a camisole. Caught my siblings laughing at me and saying I look like a weirdo character from one of the telemundo movies we watch. 😐

Feeling : Thankful always.

This August was a good month for me! I finalllyyyy got a job and started my housemansip at last. I got to also flex my services and work with some people on blog reviews and consultations which felt really good!.


Remember my prayer in my last recap post? It came to pass this month and I was actually surprised that God would answer something like that! Real G! Lol. I wouldn’t type it out here again, but you can go and check out what the prayer was here.

Please leave me your thoughts,

Quick Outfit Details.

I was looking for pictures to include in this post and decided on these once because my indecisiveness was starting to kick in and I would have stayed there forever trying to pick which to use. Figured I might as well make it double as a style post anyways, so yeah!
This is a laid back outfit I put together one weekend in July to go visit my friend. I’ve had this dungarees for a while now and it’s funny how I don’t bring it out as often as I used to back when I first got it.
Isn’t that the way life is though? One minute you’re obsessed with something and the next, it has taken a backseat. Lol

Regardless, it will always be one of my faves and I’ve styled it previously here and here.
I went for a casual look, this time, around, pairing it with my iconola top from this post and my lucy daves sandals.

What do you guys think of this look?
