Oh my God I love blogging so much I am now updating this again in the same day!
Maybe too quickly. Beach tomorrow! Yay! I'm in my garden now with my sunglasses in denim shorts and a halter top enjoying the sun and just came out of the pool from continous splashes with siblings. Barefoot is my signature. It is now evening and I am satisfied with my life, licking my fingers of the delicious and mouth-watering taste of barbeque chicken wings and find the gentle, refreshing breeze quite pleasurable.
Oh do I miss my country Jamaica! Even though it is sunny where I am, the jerk chicken and warm islands/swimming pools and beach parties in the night is making me want to hop onto an airplane and to Jamaica right now! Memories do lie there, here's a pic of the beach I was in:
It was great! Would have gone on holiday this summer but can't as I am applying for British Citizenship and our passports are with them. Next year I should be going though. All my mates have gone, my best friend Sophie has gone to Greece. I am left alone, waiting for our citizenship to be accepted and our passports to arrive again. Aargh!
Anyway...
So this summer's hair trend are wavy tresses.
The thing is, beach style wavy hair only works for people with long hair!
And people with short hair, or shoulder length hair like mine won't suit wavy hair.
Actually I take that back, wavy hair suits shoulder length but I personally think it looks better with longer hair.
And if you have short hair, to make it long as it takes ages to grow hair extensions are the quicker way!
Even if you don't like the wavy hairstyle, you can go for straight hair extensions.
I'm loving them! ♥♥ The best option are clip-ins. They don't damage your hair and their ready to wear in seconds! Easy to attach and easy to take off. Simples :)
I had a weave before as my hair is very thick and dry I wanted to make it straighter and silkier, I had it done and it looked amazing! (Had it sewn in at a salon) but then I went swimming (can't resist!) and it messed it up so after that for weeks I suffered laughs because my hair was all out of place.
Weaves are good, but they can damage the hair and who wants a weave in the summer when your hair is itching like crazy and you can't take the weave off becuase it'll be a waste of money! Clip in's are the way to go for hot weather occasions.
There are many hair extensions sites online and if you don't like ordering online you can check out some local hair shops in your area! Salons sell them aswell.
A paticular site has caught my eye called Rapunzel Rapunzel, their extensions look fabulous! They have wavy and straight clip-in extensions and their having a SALE NOW!
Of course every girl loves the word 'SALE'. Our eyes glisten in delight when we come across a shop with the word 'SALE' and immediately find ourself hypnotically drawn into the shop and at the counter in seconds.
When ordering extensions online it's best to look at their colour charts (they should have ones) so you can determine your hair colour and what colour to buy.

I plan to get these hair extensions for my upcoming birthday aswell as an Ipod Touch! :D
And talking about birthdays, if a friend's birthday is coming up or you want to occupy yourself with something in this hot summer , my list of the top summer gadgets are the following:
♥ Ipod/MP3 Player - While chilling out and relaxing listen to some of your favourite cool tunes.
♥ Camera/Video Camera: Capture the memories! Nothing is better than looking over your fun times of SUMMER '09 photos and videos. Expect some laughter and smiles :)
♥ Portable Mini Hair Straighteners/Curling Tongs - Oh come on you didn't think I would forget this! What if you got out of the ocean after swimming and your hair is all messed? Solution to quick hair fix = Mini Straighteners/Curling Tongs. A total life saver.
♥ Air Conditioned Clothing - No. Seriously. I. Am. Not. Joking. A company called Kuchofuku has launched some air conditioning clothing so when you are boiling hot and tempted to pull all your clothes off in the slathering heat then this will keep you cool and fresh. Perfect delight.
♥ Bluetooth MP3 Sunglasses - Wow! These amazing sunglasses have an mp3 player built into them
and bluetooth. What could be better.
♥ Fan - OF COURSE. How could I almost forget. This is IMPORTANT. If you can't afford the air conditioned clothing or think it might look weird then there are cheap fans for 50p - £2 for portable fans that cools you down. Just remember a pack of batteries.
♥ Kindle - An electronic device that allows you to read mulitiple books while your on the go so instead of having to go to the shops and buy some books then stuff them in a big, heavy bag you can purhcase them from amazon.com and have them immediately digitally on your device. Slick.
♥ Beach/Holiday Bag - Ok so this is
not a gadget but you NEED a bag. It's like a personal holder for you. Where are you going to put your gadgets, makeup, portable hair kits, books, magazines, accessories, sunscreen etc.? In a bag I tell you. Most summer bags are stylish so go spotting for one now if you don't already have one!
♥ Confidence - Not a gadget
either but you need self-esteem to have a damn good time. If you have no confidence = no fun. So boost it now by doing things you love!
I hope I've saved your summer. No need to thank me ;)
