All the right junk in all the right places.







2016 a year when yet again we all obsesses with perfect 'ideals' of the human form.
With Kimmy K bums and sculpted rock solid tums, this idea of the power 8 hourglass figure has become more unachievable than ever.
Having a size 6 waist and a size 16 ass is not something we are all born with, and  this 'dillema' has caused a dramatic rise in requests for plastic surgery procedures. Including the likes of Brazilian butt lifts, breast augmentations and liposuction at an all time high.
"Women are asking for larger, but more natural-looking breasts as well as enhanced buttocks, rounder hips and slimmer thighs," - Dr. Stephen J. Greenberg (top plastic surgeon)
Over to the holy grail 'thigh gap' desired by seemingly everyone in lulu lemon leggings; this is achieved by 'inner thigh laser lipo' which removes exercise-resistant fat. cute.
 And then to waist trainers, a contraption conjured up in the 1500's designed to pinch your waist and hinch your hips. Well they've had a 2016 sprushed-up to become all the instafamous girls latest toy. Although exclaimed "It's unrealistic to expect that these devices can fundamentally change body shape," - Dr. David Hidalgo. But apart from lack- lustre results and damaging health #thewaisttrain doesn't seem like its departing anytime soon.

 Plastic surgery shouldn't be seen as an aspiration for a 13 year old watching KUWTK, or flicking through Cosmo. Body standards and oppressive media images are making people feel as if perfection will never ever be achieved. but perfection dose not exist and never will next year huge ankles and tiny thumbs colour be the new rage. Diversity and difference is the most beautiful thing we could ask for. 
You are #blessed and #loved so #yolo.

Turquoise the honest colour.

The Color Turquoise

Colour psychology states the meaning of the color turquoise is one of open communication, honesty and clarity of thought. Turquoise helps to open the lines of communication between the heart and the spoken word. It presents as a friendly and happy colour enjoying life.
This is contradictory as turquoise is heavily featured in the interiors of the totalitarian country of North Korea. The eerily fresh, dystopian sterilisation of these images creates a picture of deceptiveness of the corrupt world.

Milk is because milk flows




The milky moustache’s crawling towards their mothers, and then away from their arms; keeping the safety net of warmth and dependancy soaked in lactose.
The primary source of nutrition and life line for the infant mammals. 
The antibodies march like soldiers providing protection to the toothless that are growing the roots to become shoots, and then for the shoots to leave.

Continue to consume beyond infancy, using others to settle stomachs of worry and stress, a heavy load lightened by the white water. The elders did not posses the skill of digesting the silky solution, but yet they ignored the calling and continued to swallow. Abnormal. Intolerance. Instead, they call it lactase persistent; this subset of humanity to stay milk drinkers into adulthood.

The roots start to grow back to nostalgia to refuge in that sentiment. They drink the milk to gain the childlike memory and state of comfort reverting back to their youth and reconnect with mothers.
 to induce warm sleep and serenity, to become full in an empty room.
