..Funsized, pan-African, spiritual, hippy princess! :-)
I started this blog because I love to share! Sharing is caring!
Whether if be my creations (SweetOrangeBoutique @SweetOrangeBou) or information on Hair & Beauty, fashion, food, travel or culture, I will share it.
I don't know it all, I am still learning and welcome you to join me as I navigate this thing called life.
These are my thoughts and feelings, nothing here is written to offend.
Thank you for reading,

"A film that explores how African American communities have used
the camera as a tool for social change from the invention of photography to the
present. This epic tale poetically moves between the present and the past,
through contemporary photographers and artists whose images and stories seek to
reconcile legacies of pride and shame while giving voice to images long
suppressed, forgotten, and hidden from sight."
"IRIE!’s Well Being & Fun Day is a great opportunity for the whole family to both unwind and have fun. Choose from team games such as Five-A-Side Football and Tug-of-War. Show off your competitiveness with events such as the Sack Race and Egg & Spoon Race or show off your agility with the Hula Hoop. Plus, of course, there will be Dance and Drumming Workshops. Especially for the children there will be Face Painting and a Bouncy Castle. And, if you just want to relax, then check out our Massage and Therapies Tent. The event will be set to the vibes of DJ Ras Ezekiel. - See more at: http://www.iriedancetheatre.org/community-and-outreach-program/family-well-being-and-fun-day/#sthash.kaC2bVU6.dpuf "

"I was listening to US radio and heard this smooth voice...singing "You're like sugar, so sweet. I know this ones for me" I immediately went to google and typed in the lyrics and found the artist...Ms Alex Isley.
A 28 year old songbird hailing from New Jersey, US and Yes! the name sounds familiar, her uncles are the Isley Brothers but Alex shines in her own light with talent and vocals that are uniquely her. You can hear influences from 90's R&B and Jazz music but that's a good thing....Go Alex!"
