London

After a super brief trip to London I have came home feeling inspired and creative. It was just a 24 hour trip but it still managed to have this effect on me. It has an atmosphere and buzz like no other city I have been to. The combination of fashion, tourists, transport and general hustle and bustle of the city creates a wonderful yet scary experience. The subway is a terrifying ordeal but you just have to put on a brave face and drag that suit case into the crowds of Londoners in a constant rush. 

My visit was for Hammerson We Love Retail Awards 2014. Van Mildert - Silverburn was nominated for best menswear store and....

WE WON. 

OBV.

Dress code was "Not black tie and no jeans".

WHAT DOES THIS EVEN MEAN??? 

Yes you guessed it...
SARAH EVIE STELLA BARKER WAS STRESSED. 

After many outfit changes I decided to go for....

Great Aunty Katie's cream lace blazer(My ultimate favourite blazer from my style icon)

D&G black lace skirt I got for one of my 1st uniforms from Cruise. Always good to have a staple classic black skirt in your wardrobe.

H&M black crop top. 

PHEW.


Yes Myleene is our new best friend.

So after a fantastic speedy trip I am obviously over coming my London blues by doing some Harrods online window shopping. I am not sure if this will make me happy or depressed.

Sunday 6 April 2014

Happy

Sunday Sunday Sunday.

After dancing the night away celebrating my girl Bobbies birthday I surprisingly woke up with zero hangover. FAB. However due to a rare day off with G we decided to act like we did have one by watching about 5 films in a row. Perfect Sunday off. 

It also resulted in some online window shopping. I love going on to www.net-a-porter.com and setting the bar to the highest value and dreaming. 

Today I spied a glorious little bag. I am almost certain if I had this I would be happy every day.

Better get saving my pennies. I think it is the perfect combination of fun and classy. I also had a good insta creep today (same as I do everyday) and came across these Chanel beauties...


The only word I can use to describe them is magical. I love everything about them. Karl you never fail to amaze me.

Hope you all have had a HAPPY Sunday. Movie number 6 time for S&G.

Love & kisses

The boy that has everything...

Good evening ladies & gentleman...

Today I had the laziest day EVER. 
Did not get ready until 4pm. 
BAD EVIESTELLA.

However I am up and out and doing some more relaxing in Starbucks. I love nothing more than sitting with a coffee and watching the world go by. I could sit for hours just people watching. I love the variety of fashion you see from one little spot.

I decided to use this opportunity to show you Gs birthday present....

What do you get someone who literally has everything?

I wanted to buy him something unusual and meaningful. I gave myself quite a difficult task however with the help of some lovely staff at Oliver Sweeney I think I was pretty successful.




Pretty FABULOUS.

I purchased them online and then the staff get in touch regarding the tattooing.

Simple process but amazing outcome.

I would 100% recommend them.

They even left G SPEECHLESS.

Result. 

Love and kisses

My ultimate inspo of 2014

Margaret Zhang and Vanessa Hong.

They both have a similar style. Clean cut, simple with elements of masculinity. Vanessa wears a lot of fabulous furs. As you all know I have a major obsession with fur... all year round.

They are my favourite fashionistas at the moment. Part of my daily routine is to see what Vanessa and Margaret have worn recently. 

YES I AM OBSESSED.

They make it look so god damn easy.

I am also in love with Vanessa's super blonde hair.
I have been tempted many times to copy however my hair just can't handle bleach.

Soooo....

HERE THEY ARE!!!











I now feel like I MUST go to zara and purchase a full new wardrobe. Zara is they only place on the high street I feel you can achieve this look without paying crazy ass $$$$.

Have a beautiful day fashionistas.
Love and kisses.

OH HEY YOU

Goodmorning sunshine.

Literally just had thee most chilled out week off ever.
It consisted of sleeping and partying.

Perfect combo OBV.

Myself and Graeme are currently like passing ships at the moment, which sucks. However we took the same holidays so being able to spend time with him was awesome. Not sure how he coped with 24/7 Sarah!!!

One of my favourite things about having time off is being able to experiment with fashion and taking that little bit more time choosing an outfit which mainly consists of an item/outfit from Zara. My go to shopping destination. Everywhere else sucks. 

Since I have NOT blogged in a million years (surprise) here is a little update of  my current adventures...

Happy 30th to MY G THING...


A night of relaxation at Cameron House...


Edinburgh to celebrate with Mr & Mrs Afzal...


I feel super old.

I have JUST discovered I can blog from my iPhone.

EXCITING TIMES AHEAD.

Love & kisses

DON'T WORRY BE HAPPY.

Memories...

Good afternoon darlings....

Today I feel like blogging.
The sun is out.
I am on my balcony.
I have a large, strong coffee.
Perfecto situation for blogging.

SO..

Today I am going to chat about a major loss we had in our family recently.
It has taken me until now to be able to talk about it as I tend to hold alot of my feelings deep inside. However I have learned that the more you talk about things the easier it gets and the hurt begins to turn into happiness.

My Granda sadly passed away on the 19th of June. 
I can not believe it has been a month already.

I have many, many beautiful memories with him and I would like to share them with you all...

When I was younger I spent lots of weekends and summers at my grandparents caravan where I have collected lots of amazing childhood memories.

Including roller blading, long drives, trips to the army base, ice cream, the hippy camp and lots of exciting adventures.

One that stands out is the long walks My Granda and I would go on with his dog Lucky.

The day started with Granda making our breakfast. It consisted of rice krispies with lots of sugar on top which was a massive treat as Kazzamama would never allow the sugar part.

He would teach me how to talk to the birds but for some reason they would only talk back to him. I remember thinking how magical he was.

We would make our way through the woods to the rocky beach and then the hunt for crabs began. I was not too keen on this part of our walk as like many people know My Granda was a prankster. 

Prankster + Crabs = not a great combination.

My favourite part of our walk was getting to the end of the beach and finding the large rock painted as a mermaid.

We would then make our way back to My Gran who would have some macaroni cheese waiting on us.

I am super glad I have these fabulous memories of My Granda and that I was able to go to some of the most beautiful places in the world with him.

His death was very sudden.
Nothing prepares you for the death of a loved one.
Especially when you have never experienced this sort of pain or loss before.

Talking about it now I feel I can finally accept I will not see him again but part of him will never leave me.

It is safe to say blogging definitely helps relieve your stress and heart ache and turn it into a positive.

Since My Grandas death I feel I have been a different person.
I have been extremely down, emotional and negative, which many of you will know is not in my nature.

After typing this I feel I have released many horrible emotions I had weighing me down.

Today is a new day.
A positive day.
A happy day.







GOODBYE GRANDPA

Love you always.

"I like to walk with Grandpa, his steps are short like mine. He doesn’t say, “Now hurry up.” He always takes his time. I like to walk with Grandpa, his eyes see things like mine; a birdie bright, a funny cloud, a penny that really shines. Most people are in a hurry, they do not stop and see; I’m glad that God made Grandpa unrushed, and almost as young as me."

LIVE
LAUGH
LOVE
