Through the alleyways to cool off in the shadows

Dress - Topshop; Shoes - H&M
Sleeveless Top - Topshop; Long Sleeve Shirt - Disney; Sneakers - H&M





Another sunny day outside, we went to the nearest playground which used to be filled with children playing and screaming/laughing. I wonder what happened? I guess the weather is just a bit too hot and they stopped coming out for a while. I thought the natural sunlight was absolutely beautiful in the pictures! We've both have baked some delicious cakes; Baked cheesecake and Red Velvet cake :D

Oh we've also been listening to Jay-z and Alicia Keys - Empire state of mind, it is a genre we usually don't listen to but the collaboration was great and Alicia Key's piano and voice is magnificent.

  58. Hi there!

    I dont know what Im trying to do by leaving this message. I certainly dont mean to cause you any form of sadness. But perhaps, in this simple manner.. Id be able to extend further help.

    I just thought that people, the world over might want to know what happened. Even through a single person's perspective. I hope that it might move them and start a chain.. of good thoughts and prayers.

    So there it is. I hope you help me spread the word. Ive written it all down. On my blog.

    Thank you very much, dearest!
