Day Out: Segway Racing

My friend Anthony received a voucher to go Segway Racing on his birthday. For some reason the person he thinks to take with him is the only stunting woman he knows... me..

As my besty commented "are you out stunting again?"

Drive just out of London and to some near lake area later. This place is great for active kids and adults. As I see kids ready to go out in canoe's or wind surfing. Health and safety done. Padded and a few kicks to each others chine's later. Yes we started making Thai boxing moves on each other once the chin pads were on and a few "haii yaaa" Bruce lee sounds. Instructor tried not to laugh. We was kitted out for the terrain. The circuit was a bit of a bore just going round and round. Trying not to hit the sides of the wheels. Where we witnessed a big guy take a drop cause he got too close to his other half's segway, and trying to avoid on coming collisions like tree stumps and each other.

One thing I didn't manage to avoid was dropping backwards on a slope. Smacked my face and grazed my knees so bad I still have scars. The funny part was me getting up to think "crap my face is my job... manager will kill me if this bruises!"

Fun to do.. but racing it was not... should be advertised as Segway Terrain Circuit. Clearly not as easy as it looks though. But something fun to do.

Past Post: Last Summer Haul

Lets try catching up as quick as I can. I have so many pics to get through...

Here is last summer 2012 haul. It's still worth me posting since its items that I have manged to mix match and layer.

 

The maxi dress is just something so plane and simple worn with bucket boots, trainers or sandals, layered or on its own. Easy to pack and has been on a few trips with me since I bought it. 

The choker chain.. what can I say.. Winter was about gold and embellishment.

 

I have been wearing the yellow one for gym under a vest. I just love the spot of colour it gives under baggy tops.

The vibrant neon... I wore under a open V jump suit. I actually had a guy say he works for an underwear company and asked where it was from. Then I found it on Tulisa's video some time later.

I Miss U

Hello!! OMG I miss you!!

I still have no computer..so I have had to high jack my mothers very broken down lap top just to say hello.. and when I mean broken down, this thing has no battery.

So its been like forever.. okay 6 months or so since I have been AWOL... and I knew it was my 1 year anniversary of blogging and there is so much you have missed.

1. My Vogue Fashion Night out... which yours truly was papped at for style mag!! whoop whoop
2. Vacay in Japan.. on the hunt for style and history
3. My trips with my now ex boy friend and his kids... Sad to say I am still very hurt from the break up.
4.  Segway racing... which I now have scared knees.. wearing a short skirt is proving difficult.
5. Can not forget my under cut moment.. which is now growing out.

I think I stopped there since my private life became a bit of a take over and last few months was trying to mend. Without blogging I seem to have had no distraction from the pain to let the days pass by as easy. Yet when I do get everything up and running again.. bets are sharing with you the above will hurt since he was very much a part of some of it. Non the less lets soldier on. And please leave comments I'm dying to hear what you think of my blog.

And this is what I wanted to share with you as my 1st blog for 2013. Intro over.

Look Sharp: Rhianna for River Island

With 2012 finally behind us and with my private life a shambles. I found myself asking with all this recession and lack of imagination, or be it nothing exciting to kick me up the back side, what has fashion got for me this year?

I feel like I am seeing me last year on the likes or Beyonce and Rhianna. As the looks I fashioned for my bday last year, with my Marie Antoinette style, is on Bs concert commercial; and my undercut is on Riri. I'm left scouring the net for some inspiration. As well as trying to find clothes I actually want to part money with.

It was London Fashion Week last week and Rhianna unveiled her collaboration with River Island. I normally role my eyes and say next. But no I have to say, I will be buying as soon as it hits the shops!. Some of her dresses and lines makes me think of Calvin Kline. Might not be wow but you know what its simple.When was the last time you saw anything simple in the shops these days that wasn't screaming studs, fringes and wot not at you? Its still sexy dress down and timeless. Now that's an accolade if I ever said one.
