I collect so many beautiful images throughout my little adventures that never see the light of day so I thought I would give them time to shine. Spending a summer day with Lalesso, creamy drinks at a random tea house, delicate flowers and delicate skin, sparks of DIY passion, the Erke launch at Gardens shopping centre and holographic sneakercreepers from Topshop, a tall glass of flavoured water, make up magic, a Cosmo summer party, chocolate cupcakes and pastel hearts, giant disco balls, popcorn in Chinese food boxes, neon shoes and foot tattoos. These are the little things that inspire my smiles and camera snaps. There's inspiration wherever I look. 2014 are you ready for me? I'm so ready for you.
I have something to confess, I wasn't always the biggest fan of my smile but ain't nobody got time for that, I'm going to get over myself and embrace it! I thought you might be interested in a competition Cosmopolitan Magazine and Colgate Optic White are running. I've never promoted outside competitions but I support this campaign because it's all about positivity and confidence, not to mention that the prize is something a fashion girl would enjoy. I want women to feel amazing about themselves and not neglect the self-love we forget to focus on, or need to work on.
We all know that happiness is beautiful so Colgate is offering a girl who knows how to rock her smile the chance to be on their own cover of Cosmo and go on a R20 000 shopping spree. The winner will get to do a cover shoot with the Cosmo styling team and appear on the gate fold of the October issue.
If you're interested, here's how to enter: Snap a pic of yourself showing off your pearly whites, enter on the Optic White website and that's it, your photo will be featured on the blog along with the other entrants. This competition ends on May 22nd, for more info you can check out the latest issue of Cosmopolitan on stands now.
