Movies That I’m Looking Forward To Watching This Year

January 16, 2018/ natoya

Movies are not typically things that I get excited about, I mean I enjoy watching them but for the most part I’m just not interested in most of what is being produced. I don’t like horror movies and romantic comedies are just as badHowever, they’re are a few movies that are coming out that I’m looking forward to watching. I’m not expounding on what the plot of the movies are I’m just expressing why I’m interested or excited about this movie.

Year in Review | Favourite Books and Authors of 2017

January 07, 2018/ natoya

Books have been a pleasure for me this year. I didn’t write as many review posts as I would have liked to and I promise I will do better on that in 2018. One of the stand out posts for me this year was about what a well written book looks like to me, and though as I mentioned already I didn’t write nearly as many reviews as I should have, the year was still full of literature that kept me entertained and even a bit in my feelings.

Year in Review | 2017 Lessons Learnt

December 31, 2017/ natoya

I didn’t set any goals this year, it felt like everything was so up in the air with me job searching. Many of the things that I wanted to accomplish or do depended on money and since it wasn’t certain I really didn’t feel like writing them down only to be disappointed.

Thoughts and Reasonings | Setting Parameters for My Spending

December 17, 2017/ natoya

As I mentioned in last weeks Sunday post, I’ve been struggling with buying makeup, it seems that there is always so many things I want to get my hands on. After thinking about it for the last couple of days I started to really think of the colours that I’ve been drawn to in palettes...

Thoughts and Reasonings | Feeding The Makeup Beast

December 10, 2017/ natoya

I’m not sure about you but lately I’ve been struggling with the never ending desire to buy, buy, buy. I’ve said it before, I like things, I like spending my money on items and products that interest me. Lately though I’ve been feeling like I’ve indulged myself too much.

Fall Colour Palette | Maroon

November 05, 2017/ natoya

Maroon is the snugness of a wide brimmed hat and the joy of a thankful season. It's rich and full bodied a blood red wine and gold tipped nails. It's class and style mingled with the comfort of home. It's the laughter of good friends and the spirit of well being

Fall Colour Palette | Hunter Green

October 23, 2017/ natoya

I'm not sure about you but each season there are a few colours that I'm drawn to more so than usual. This yeah I've noticed that along with my usual forest green, navy and maroon mustard yellow has caught my eye. I'm not sure yet how I would style it but I like it. I think if done well it's a colour that you can carry forward in years to come.

Thoughts and Reasonings | A Well Written Book

October 15, 2017/ natoya

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Reading a well written book is a pleasure. Now I guess it can be a bit subjective, I mean many people consider the classics to be well written books, I on the other hand find them boring. So you see the definition of well written will vary from person to person.

Thoughts and Reasonings | Holiday Makeup Fatigue

October 06, 2017/ natoya

I have a love love relationship with makeup. There’s not much that I dislike about it except maybe high prices, the russian roulette you sometimes play with quality but other than that it’s all love. For the last month and have maybe even two months, ever since Holiday products started being released, which was way back in August, I’ve just been feeling tired.
