MY STYLE:: Cool blue



Sandy beaches, warm sunshine, crystal blue water and palm trees are just a few blessings that I can enjoy any day of the year because I live on one of the most beautiful Caribbean islands, Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands. For many others around the world, they're slowly packing away their summer clothes and preparing for the Fall. I love the Fall and wish that we experienced that season here in the Caribbean but instead, Summer days last forever :)

Body Conscious....



As women, we are all conscious about our bodies. Regardless if the world looks on and think we have the most gorgeous body ever, because we are our own worst critics, we find something that we'd much rather hide away. For me, it's my entire body. Yes, I said my entire body. In previous posts, I have shared a little about why I am so overly conscious about my stature. Many people think it's because I despise food and don't eat enough why I'm so tiny, but the truth is that I am quite the foodie. I am simply genetically tiny. While that is the envy of many, for me, it's a daily 'struggle'. 

As an island child who loves the sea, sand, sun, fun and boating, this was the first time that I felt completely free and fearless about my body. I strutted around the boat in my bikini and felt liberated. I felt free to be me. Even bolder than that, I posted an entire album of photos on my FB page for the world to see. Can we say LIBERATION?!?



This past weekend was a great weekend. My girlfriend organised a boat trip for her thirty-something'th birthday. Although I am EXTREMELY paranoid about party boats and was very hesitant about joining her, it was too gorgeous of a day not to go out on the water. After much considering and coaxing by my friends, I went on the boat and had an amazing day. *whew*








Isn't the water just so stunning? #ILiveWhereYouVacation



It's always Summer here in the Cayman Islands so chances are, you'll see more bikini/ beach/ boating posts.

Cayman Carnival Batabano 2014

Saturday, May 3rd 2014 was another great day for revelers and masqueraders as they celebrated the 31st annual Cayman Carnival Batabano. Bright colours, beads, feathers, glitter, gems and energy flooded the streets. The scorching 90 degree heat did not deter the soca junkies from jumping, neither did it deter the masses that came out to watch.

Thankfully, my work day creating vibrant, carnival looks wasn't as hectic as it was in 2013, so I had more than enough time to join in on some of the fun.

Every year, this event attracts thousands of visitors from around the world to our tiny piece of paradise in the sun. Even though our carnival is incomparable to those in Trinidad, Jamaica, Brazil and Honduras, our people still know how to take full advantage of the latest soca hits and all the fun involved.

I love all the bright colours that flood the streets during carnival. It brings such a happy vibe.

Cayman International Music Festival

Grand Cayman is home to many talented individuals, whether artists, artistes, craftsmen and women, chefs/cooks, sculptures, etc., yet, so few people even know where we are located. One of the many beauties of living on such a tiny island is that you get the opportunity to come face-to-face with celebrities throughout the year. Because we are such a calm, laid back people, seeing and meeting celebrities has become a part of life and is 'just another day in the park'.

This past Friday, 6 December 2013, I had the fabulous opportunity of performing for the first annual Cayman International Music Festival which presented the legendary Percy Sledge, R&B singer Genuine, Omi and Verse Simmonds. Not only was the event packed with such amazing international talent, but our local acts surely did put on a great show! It was a great night enjoyed by all.
