BOOKWORM STYLE

My latest obsession, well actually, it's been an obsession for quite awhile now...BOOK CLUTCHES! I'm so in love with them, they're absolutely brilliant and super cute. I'm dying to have one, living in the Caribbean sucks at times like these, especially when you can't source the things you want online. The other problem being, the price >.< Low and behold, they're all quite expensive. The first set of clutches I discovered were the Kate Spade ones, seeing as I'm a fan of the brand already, it wasn't hard for me to fall in love the moment I saw the cover of "Pride and Prejudice" on a clutch. I literally became obsessed after that, hence, research (lol), which is when I came across the amazing, Olympia Le Tan book clutches *_* << starstruck. The one I love the most has to be the Pride and Prejudice clutch by Kate Spade, however, Olympia Le Tan, literally has an entire collection of just about every amazing book known to man kind. (Okay, so maybe I'm exaggerating) But, she really does have an amazing collection.

Check these out...

Want...so...badly...*covet covet* All the pretteh!

~*Poui Blossoms*~

(Poui Tree in bloom at the Queen's Park Savannah, Trinidad)

One of the best things about living in Trinidad, for me that is, is the month of April, which happens to be my favourite of the year, not only because it’s my birth month, but because that’s when the beautiful Poui trees are in bloom. I have a special love for the pink ones in particular (there are also yellow, which are stunning as well), but the pink reminds me of Japanese Cherry Blossom trees or Sakura. Just sitting under one of those trees, surrounded by the blanket of delicate pink blossoms on the grass is just peaceful and comforting. It is absolutely breathtaking, and something about it, for me seems promising, of what, I do know but hopefully I will one day.

Things I'm Thankful for...

Today I watched the movie "Soul Surfer", I've been wanting to see it ever since it came out in cinemas but never got the chance to. It didn't disappoint though, it's just one of those movies that really make you sit and think and be extremely thankful for the little things we take for granted everyday. So here's my list of things I'm thankful for :)

1. Being alive and healthy for 19 years and counting
2. Having no physical abnormalities
3. Being able to see, smell, touch, hear, speak, taste, walk and breathe
4. My parents
5. Most of my family members (There are some I really wish I weren't related too)
6. My other family, a.k.a. My amazing friends <3
7. The comfortable life I have, I may not have the most extravagant life but at least I'm not living on the streets
8. Music, because it comforts you in the most unexpected times when no one else can
9. Books, because they provide an escape and allow you to visit the entire world even if you can't physically do so.
10. Every little God-given miracle on this turmoil infested planet, He knows we need it.
