Date Night

I had a day off yesterday as my feet have been in a bit of pain since I started jogging (Yes, shocking but true, I now jog!)

I stayed home and got some much needed rest. In the evening my housemate Carol and I decided to go see a movie. I thought it would be good to drag my best friend along as she has been a little down in the dumps this week and later on we invited one more friend who is really like my little brother and before we knew it we were having a date night!

We saw Taken 2. I don’t want to spoil it for anyone so I will only say that it did not disappoint. It’s not as good as the first one though (is any sequel ever better than 1?) but it still has that action to make you jump on your seat every few minutes. We goofed around a lot which made it a terrific night; I would recommend that you take your craziest friends along to the movies if you want guaranteed fun!

Also I finally got a pair of boyfriend jeans from Mr. Price! I have wanted to own a pair since forever so I was really excited to find these, plus, I got them in a SALE *winning* Paired them with a mint blouse and some wedges and was good to go! Enjoy the pics:-)

The Amaka Arts Festival Fashion Show

 A week ago a new friend of mine, Mukuka of c1rca1964, told me about this amazing festival called "Amaka Arts Festival" that was taking place in Lusaka. The Amaka Arts Festival is the first Zambian international multidisciplinary arts festival and was created to add value to the Zambian arts market. The festival is a week long and showcases five main disciplines which include film, visual arts, dance, fashion and literary arts.

Needless to say, I was almost falling over myself when I heard about the fashion show and Mukuka helped me connect with the organisers of the festival and I managed to attend it. The fashion show was held on the rooftop of The Foxdale Court Shopping complex which was perfect because it's summer at the moment and super hot so the cool air and stunning night scenery added that extra pizzazz!

I wore a black lace dress that I got a few weeks ago. I am so in love with lace and sheers at the moment and I loved how simple and elegant it came out. I also wore a stunning new pair of heels I got in a sale at Foshini!

 I was so psyched to see one of the first Zambian bloggers I ever stumbled upon, Sekayi from the blog Mafashio, at the festival. She was one of the models and looked like a frigging supper model! I was grinning at her the whole time and most of my pictures were biased towards her really..lol. I had to leave early and didn't get to meet her but I'm sure it's only a matter of time.
