Introducing Mazzi Maz | ATI Series


Hey everyone,

So today I wanted to share with you the first dance video in my series Aspire To Inspire. I am so happy with how this turned out. The first dance freestyle for the ATI series is with none other than you-tuber 'Mazzi Maz' who is incredibly talented in many things. When I arranged this with Mazzi Maz, I didn't just want to do an interview, I wanted to share with you one of his many talents. 

So Thank You Mazzi Maz for coming down to do an interview, dance freestyle and for taking part in my series!

Spring Fashion | Guest Post

Hey everyone,

So today I bring you another guest post.

If you are going on holiday, or just looking to purchase a new wardrobe for spring/summer then this is for you. 


Five Perfect Work Outfits for Spring/Summer 2014

We may be edging towards spring, slowly but surely, but that doesn’t mean we don’t have jobs to do. It’d be lovely to enjoy some annual leave, to have the liberty of enjoying the weather and some leisure time, but unfortunately for most of us, we have work commitments and responsibilities! Don’t get disheartened though – you can still put a spring in your step by dressing in some new clobber for your days at work, bringing some style, fashion and a fresh outlook into your office. Brighten up your day with some of these great work outfits for the spring and summer season 2014, no matter what work environment you are in.

Dresses
Is there ever a bad time for dresses? Donning a dress is a sure-fire way of looking and feeling great, and, as the weather warms up, there’s no need for chunky cable-knit tights anymore either! Depending on the type of industry you work in, you may need to stick to the tailored dress suit, or if you’re lucky and you have a little more freedom about what you can wear, something a little more casual may suffice. Take a look at George’s range of dresses, regardless of the style you are looking for, and you’ll be sure to find something to suit. If you work in a more casual environment, a simple jersey-style dress would be ideal for a cooler day, while a simple wrap dress or floral prints are bang on trend this season too – perfect for when the sun has its hat on!

Skirts
A simple A-line pencil skirt will always be a timeless garment for the office, and springtime is no different. Brighten up your outfit with a bold and bright blouse and complementing court shoes, to make a little more of a statement. Alternatively, accessorise to the max with some statement beads and a simple tunic top if you would prefer to stay a little more conservative.




Blazers
Perfect to cover your arms on a chillier day, blazers aren’t just for the utmost in formality anymore. A blazer in black, or navy blue, that is fitted to complement your body shape, is an incredibly versatile piece of clothing that would look just as fabulous with a skirt, over a dress, a pair of trousers or even a pair of skinny jeans.

Trousers
The great thing about trousers is they go with everything. Add a pair of high heels for a killer look, or a pair of court shoes for something a little less vertigo-inducing. Team with a tunic top, or blouse, for an effortless work outfit that would be ideal for the office.

Cashmere Jumper
Who are we kidding? Just because it’s springtime doesn’t mean it’s going to be warm! A cashmere sweater is a perfect addition to a work outfit for the chillier days – not only looking smart and stylish, but keeping you warm too!
Top up your working wardrobe this spring and refresh your clothes a little. It may be work and not play, but you can still look and feel fabulous at the same time!

Independent Artist Mike Hough Sells Out The Jazz Cafe | Gig Review

Hey everyone,

So on Sunday the 16th March, I attended East London born singer/songwriter Mike Hough's sold out headline show in Camden, at the famous london venue 'The Jazz Cafe'. For an Independent artist to break boundaries and sell out such an iconic venue, this can only be the start of something truly special and what a night it was to witness!

From the start of the show to the very end, the night was all about talent, energy, fun and having a good time. The evening was filled with incredible vocals, talented musicians, and all round good music.The crowd eagerly anticipated the arrival of Mike Hough on stage and counted down along with the projected video which was displayed before his arrival. Prior to the gig starting, fans travelled from all over the UK, and queued at least six hour's before the gig started that day, to catch a glimpse of the singer up close. 


Inspiration and energy filled the venue throughout the night, as Mike Hough's interaction with the fans evolved through out the evening. From singing old classics such as 'Hero' from the very start of his career, to new song's such as 'Dumb' which is one of the songs that was co-written with fellow songwriter JB Gill former member of JLS. Mike's stage presence shone more then ever before upon the stage where he performed and the connection between him, his band, and the fans lifted the venue and brought something even more incredible to the atmosphere. 

Once coming off the stage the crowd continued to chant for Mike to come back on and do more as they were not ready to leave. This in itself showed how much his fan's enjoyed the show.


Overall, Mike's headlining show was full of soul, vibes and energy! From fully rocking out to MJ's 'Rock With You' in an 80's/90's medley which also included other song's such as 'Ain't Nobody'. To then asking the venue to be silent so Mike could break it down and acoustically sing one his newest originals 'Lost In Love' which you can watch above.

I really enjoyed the show and this gig left me very inspired, motivated, and even more driven, to continue working hard to achieve and succeed in my dreams... just as he is doing!
