Easter at the Market Fashion Event

Image
 The Hotel Normandie was the venue for the very informal  Easter at the Market fashion event. Some of Trinidad's local designers showcased their most recent pieces as the models glided gracefully down the staircase of the hotel's lobby. These designers include Ecliff Elie, Delia Alleyne and Lisa See Tai.  The pieces shown ranged from silky pops of color to dark, geometric patterns. Here are some designs:  My time at the show was short, as I had other things to do that day.  However, it was definitely time well spent at a very picturesque location!

Style Crush - Bella Hadid

Image
                          Bella Hadid appeased the style gods in her stunning ensemble of a jumpsuit, tough leather jacket and lace up boots.  She was spotted wearing this while strutting out of Milk Studios a couple of weeks ago. The silky and  burgundy hued cropped jumpsuit contrasts smoothly with the structured leather jacket and boots.  Here's how to get Bella's look! The luxurious fabric and his airy wrap jumpsuit and sophisticated grey tone will be perfect for a day to night transformation.  It can be dressed up to look more formal or classy enough for casual evening plans. Add the jumpsuit to this embroidered jacket for a dazzling look.  It adds a wonderful pop of colour and glittery edge to the outfit. Finish with this tote bag to fit all your essentials, this can also seamlessly be taken from day to night.

Curls for a Cause natural hair event.

Image
I stumbled upon this event on my Facebook feed and since it was all about natural hair I decided to go. This 'Curls for a Cause' natural hair event was co - hosted by Cher - Mere Day Spa  and   6 Degrees of Napp .  The Cipriani Boulevard Cher - Mere branch was an ideal setting, as the venue's exterior was cool and breezy and lent to the evening's casual atmosphere. Guests were treated to samples and information on products. I thoroughly enjoyed the entertainment: spoken word poet Zakiya Gill was amazing. The creator of the Cher - Mere Herbal Personal Care Products Mrs Cheryl Bowles was also on hand to speak to guests about the Cher - Mere iNatural line. These products include the Conditioning Oil, Curling Butter, Leave - In Conditioning Creme and Conditioning Hair Refresher.

Be Free Foods Organic Grocery review.

Image
 My journey to Be Free Foods Organic Grocery began when I decided to look for healthier food alternatives.  I wanted something to replace and my research led me to a product called nutritional yeast.  You can read a little about this product  here . I was finally directed to the store (in St James) and purchased four items instead of just the one that I was looking for.  The employees were friendly and one showed me around the store to find what I needed. 1.  Harvest Snaps Snapea crisps Fell in love with this on my last US visit.  Green and crunchy and yum.     2.  Red Mill Mung Heritage Beans. I could live on peas/beans and rice - sad but true.  Heard of mung beans so I will be trying to cook this soon. 3.  Bragg Nutritional Yeast Seasoning I've already tried this in a couple of dishes.  Here is a vegan mac n cheese recipe that uses nutritional yeast by  Jamie Oliver . 4.  Organic Happy Rolled Oats. I like having roll
