the barefoot traveller

7th October 2015
I wish you had been here with me, if only to see my face as I spotted the court yard garden nestled at the foot of the Sao Vicente de Fora in central Lisbon. The bright fuscia florals which decorated every inch of the walls were magnificent. I kicked off my shoes, a little something I find myself doing more often with my travels. I want to be able to leave knowing I felt the earth of the countries I visit. But this time I danced around that beautiful garden for as long as I was permitted. I danced in my whimsical white dress which isn’t a dress at all but was perfect for the early Autumn sun which Lisbon kindly gave us before we were whisked off to another Monument that would surely take my breath away. Yet another destination I have left a piece of my heart with. I cannot wait to tell you more.   Images by Jay McLaughlin for Olympus Pen.

Hair @imy_hair for @greatlengthsuk
I’m in my golden era. Ad having nurtured my hair back to health with professional haircare, supplements and hair oiling I knew I didn’t have enough time to grow my hair back for Summer so the wonderful team at @greatlengthsuk enlisted @imy_hair to transform me into my Summer style for the next few months. For those that don’t know Great Lengths has always been my extension brand of choice, about 15 years ago I had them for 2.5years to help me grow my hair back after I experimented a little too much with my style. My hair grew back healthy and strong and I didn’t have to wish the time away as the extensions gave me the extra few inches I needed without damaging my hair. I will have these removed at the end of the summer to continue to grow my hair back with regular Diamond cuts.
