HOW TO: feel at home with @threeuk 💁🏽

2016-12-06T22:25:00.000+00:00

WARNING: this blog post has billions of pictures... 🙈

Where do you feel most at home...? Apart from home of course! Are there any countries, events or places that you visit frequently, i.e. once a year? WELL, for me London Fashion Week is a bi-annual event that I've been lucky enough to be invited to and accredited for since the age of like 17! Henceforth, I can say I feel at home at London Fashion Week.

What's this got to do with Three? Anyone who knows me knows that I'm genuinely obsessed with Three and have been since I got my first ever contract with them like 10 years ago! I've said this so many times and I'll say it again, I love Three and I love Feel At Home. It literally feels unreal that I can be in France, Malta, Spain, America etc (42 destinations and counting #justsaying) and use my phone/data/calls/texts without having to worry about a monotonous bill - as clicheee as it sounds I actually genuinely do feel at home. I'm such a memory kind of girl, I'm the type to have 50,000 pictures of my phone full of daily memories (not selfies, don't worry haha) and I also love sharing experiences with you all, being on such an innovative network enables me to do so. Since I was young, I always got the best contract deals, low prices but high data/calls/texts, and by high it was pretty much always unlimited! There was one year I was on another network and the stress of always running out of data was infuriating especially because I'm always on the go!

Fashion week is my faveeee as I get to catch up with everyone AND be inspired by all the collections! Last season I hung out a lot at the Look Fantastic blogger lounge which was so fun! :)

Another way I feel at home during LFW is by wearing a custom made African inspired outfit every single season without fail! Have a look through my previous london fashion week posts and you'll see :)

Having my phone on Three's network makes making memories and sharing them such a breeze, aka never worrying about running out of data! Below are some pics I took on my phone, on the go!

Check out what countries Feel At Home currently operates in! So, what's your next destination? Next Stop: Marbella, Spain for me!

Yours sincerely,

Philips Airfryer Review - #TechnologyTuesday

2016-08-09T08:05:00.000+01:00

So Philips gave me a Philips Airfryer, lots of recipe cards, a £100 Tesco voucher/gift card, patience and the freedom to make lots of yummy and healthy food! I've actually had the Philips Airfryer for months (which has given me enough time to make an informed review) and it's honestly my go-to kitchen appliance. Whenever I feel hungry, I throw in some ingredients and within a short space of time bob's your uncle!

Cheeky little factfile: the Philips Airfryer requires NO oil, it fries with AIR. Shall I say that again? The Philips Airfryer does not require oil, it FRIES WITH AIR. For someone who loves fries (ME), this is literally the dream. Before, I'd put on the deep fryer (tut tut) and fry my chips but now I genuinely just use the Airfryer. Fries from the Airfryer contain up to 80% less fat and in my opinion they taste even better than when I used to deep fry them. It's also superrrr easy to clean as the attachments are all 100% dishwasher safe, can I get a YAASSSS?! Essentially you can ditch the take out and have a take in with the Airfyer, hence the hashtag #AirfryerTakeIn dadaaaa! 🎉

Over the course of the past few months, I've made so many quick, yummy and healthy bites using the Airfryer. Everything from Wedges to full on gourmet meals from scratch. I've also tried using it with and without foil.

I don't think this is the last you'll see of my Philips AirFryer on my blog as it has literally become bae haha. I genuinely can't get over how good it is, if you're in two minds you can download the app 'Philips AirFryer' and have a read through all the recipes and honestly you'll be amazed. You can make anything from brownies to sweet potato fries. DREAM.

More to come very soon! :)

Yours sincerely,

Jennifer Agwunobi

Two Outfits, One Day. Norwich, Student Beans & River Island.

2016-04-27T19:30:00.000+01:00

Students, get 20% off River Island with Student Beans - the offer ends on Friday! Shop here - bit.ly/1T47ZnI

I started off the day travelling down to Norwich, the town of the University where I studied my masters - University of East Anglia. Before I made my way to campus, I did some exploring of Norwich town! When I was doing my masters September 2014 - September 2015, I always seemed to be down in London weekly for events, blogging things, meetings etc so I hardly got to explore as much as I wanted to! So I made some time to walk around, do a bit of shopping, visit Three, all in my River Island dress of course and it was all super fun! At Three, I took some selfies with the Jackson Selfie Stick too haha! My network in Norwich was incredible, they had told me that they'd just gotten 4G in the area! Thanks to the fab staff Hayley Cox, Dan Rance, Liam Turton and Callum Macfarlene for a great time!

When I got on campus, I had some meetings and then popped on some black lipstick! Ooooh I also changed to heel number two! Did you notice? This dress is incredible, you can dress it up or down very easily, not to mention it's SUPER comfortable!

A few hours later it was time for outfit number 2! I checked into Broadview Lodge (UEA's hotel), organised my things and then put on my next outfit! This orange number is available on River Island's website - it's a website exclusive and it's superrr comfortable! It was raining (typical UK) but I soldiered through!

P.S. what's your favourite song from Beyonce's album Lemonade?! I love the whole album so much! My faves are Sandcastles, All Night and Love Drought!

To end the post, here are some pretty pics of Norwich! Don't forget, you can get 20% off River Island with Student Beans if you're a student! Also, here's my natural hair! It's always in a bun haha but I let it out for a bit :) loads more natural hair posts and vids coming this year!

Yours sincerely,

Jennifer Agwunobi

Win the entire L’Oreal Paris Sculpt Make Up Collection – Bootyfurl x L’Oreal Competition

2016-03-29T16:15:00.000+01:00

Hello beautiful! I’ve teamed up with L’Oreal Paris to offer you the chance to win the ENTIRE L’Oreal Sculpt Make Up Collection Kit worth over £150! Simply, follow us on Instagram @jenniferagwunobi and @lorealmakeup and fill in the form below, exciting! The competition will end 31/07/2016 at 23:59 GMT and the giveaway is open internationally. I love being able to give back and run competitions on my blog, it makes me so so so happy!

Recently, a bare-faced no-makeup me was invited to the launch event with Mario who demonstrated the entire collection on a model. I loved how flawless and natural the make up looked. I decided to go with no make-up because 1) I was running late haha 2) I was going to be in a room full the best beauty blogger babes in the United Kingdom, imagine me attempting new things and it being a noticeable disaster haha. My signature look is my red lipstick but I even opted against that for this launch even too! Mario Dedivanovic was super nice and has such a warm aura. Also he gave such interesting tips especially when it came to the Super Liner black and sculpt! The spherical tip helps define and contour the eyes from any angle for a sculpted eye look. Whatever your eye shape, you can master the art of the perfect line with Superliner Black 'N' Sculpt. The spherical tip makes eye sculpting effortless and playful so you can design your own look and the black-ink formula gives a high intensity finish. Mario told us about a dotted system in which you draw dots on your lip along the area of where the liner will be and then you draw the line following the dots and it makes sense right?!

You know me and my lipstick love, I’m excited to have 6 new besties aka the Matte Lipstick range, I Got A Feeling that if you Say My Name, I could go Silencio because Oops I Pink It Again in the midst of Disturbia! Haha that may have not made any sense to you but these are the names of some the Matte Lipstick collection! Amazing right?! The Infallible Matte Max Designer Lip Pens are intensely pigmented and have a clever sponge applicator to deliver matte colour to lips in six irresistible shades. By swapping the pigments oil and wax; the blend of traditional lipsticks, for a new and unique mix of powder pigments, polymers and velvety microspheres, the L’Oréal Paris make-up designers created buildable, 3D colour that gives up to 8 hours wear and doesn't dry lips. Use the tip of the sponge to apply your pigment before using its side to spread and blend the powder to craft clever contours with graduated colour.

I don’t wear foundation and these foundations wouldn't be my exact shade even if I did, however I do know that you beauty-nistas know how to mix, match and blend to get that 10/10 shade so if you win, totally go for it!

False Lash Sculpt Mascara RRP £9.99 – available from January 2016 . Sculpt Brow Artist RRP £8.99 – available from March 2016 . Infallible Matte Max Designer Lip Pen RRP £6.99 – available from March 2016. Infallible Sculpt Base Foundation RRP £8.99 – available from March 2016. Infallible Sculpt Palette RRP £9.99 – available from March 2016 . Infallible Sculpt Blush RRP £7.99 – available from March 2016 . Superliner Black 'N' Sculpt RRP £6.99 – available from March 2016.  Dual Ended Sculpting Brush RRP £14.99 – available from March 2016.

Again, I'm so excited to say that YOU can win the ENTIRE L'Oreal Sculpt collection! All you have to do is follow '@jenniferagwunobi' and '@lorealmakeup' on Instagram, tag your friends in the instagram post and fill in the form below - we'll be checking! The competition will end 31/05/2016 at 23:59 GMT and the giveaway is open internationally.

I hope you enjoyed this post! And GOOD LUCK :D

Yours sincerely,

The Importance of Music & LG MusicFlow Multi-Room Speaker(s) Review #MusicMonday #Tech

2016-03-14T14:48:00.000+00:00

Hello from the other side my beautiful friends! This #MusicMonday is super fun (loaddds of .gifs) and important! I'll be talking about the LG MuscFlow Multi-Room speakers which was given to me by LG to review, and also I'll be speaking about the importance of my love, la musica!

This upcoming series of pics are the 'sound bar' itself - the OG, the number 1, the main, the everything haha. This soundbar was what was connected to the TV via the HDMI port and subsequently, the other speakers were able to join in #surroundsound.

These speakers are very aesthetically pleasing, I LOVE THEM! As you can see, I got very carried away and took a billion and one pictures from all sorts of angles.

Could you imagine 1) being able to control ALL your speakers from your phone or tablet from ANYWHERE in your house? 2) being able to seamlessly connect EVERY single speaker in your house? 3) being able to sing at the top of your lungs and dance like no one's watching because you've got the best surround sound a girl could ask for?! 4) being super happy because you're able to listen to music at the best quality at any point of the day? P.S. I cut my nails a few days ago! I cut them all the time but they grow super fast haha.

For the past 6 weeks or so I've been reviewing the LG Music Flow system and I've been super happy. Music is life to me. What does music mean to you? I love music. I love to sing, I love to write, I love to dance! It makes me feel so so so happy, and I am very grateful that I have that outlet, that is, music.

There's nothing quite like falling asleep to the best and most soothing sounds and/or waking up to the most uplifting tunes. In terms of wellbeing, there is literally nothing like it. Have you ever tried this? Not with your headphone but with speakers, With the MusicFlow system, I had 5 speakers in total and a bridge (wifi) which connected all the speakers, one cute little one was in my room and I'd always play a 90s playlist before I slept and wake up to something super uplifting and best of all I could control it all with my phone and/or tablet with the free Music Flow app! With the app you can stream direct from your favourite services such as Spotify and Deezer. This is what I did! You can also use Tidal by playing the song via the app but setting the sound to the speakers with bluetooth - super easy!

Specifically for the 6 weeks, I had the:

- LG MusicFlow HS8

- LG MusicFlow H3

- LG MusicFlow H5

- LG MusicFlow H7

- LG MusicFlow Network Bridge R1

I hope you enjoyed this post! I look forward to seeing you at my next one :)

Yours sincerely,

London Fashion Week AW16 - Day 1

2016-02-20T21:44:00.001+00:00

London Fashion Week Autumn Day 1! The weather was actually okay for a good part of it haha! During the day the sun actually smiled a little bit, le gasp.

I've done this custom #LFW tee twice before now, in red and in blue. I was thinking of what colour to do for AW16, and ended up choosing purple! Then I realised that red + blue = purple, so perhaps this was meant to be haha. On twitter I asked you guys how I should style the tee, with a skirt or without - thanks for the help haha! You can check out the tweet here - https://twitter.com/bootyfurl/status/700615707248238592

When it comes to Fashion, we all love a little bargain so I thought in that in honour of Day 1 London Fashion Week, I’ll let you into a little find. Groupon have partnered with more than 9000 retailers to launch a service called Groupon Coupons, I think it’s awesome as it’s a completely free way for shoppers to find thousands of coupons and exclusive promo codes from so many #fash stores across all types - fashion, technology, beauty, travel and more! I think you guys will really like Groupon Coupons! I’ve done previous posts on saving money and I love sharing these with you all.

Each retailer have their own Groupon Coupon page full of offers and promo codes. I can see this getting quite big especially as more retailers sign on! I did a quick skim and thought I’d speak about some of my faves!

Disney - https://www.groupon.com/coupons/stores/disneystore.com

You guys know how much I know all things Disney and I normally wear some sort of disney inspired look during London Fashion Week! As you can see in this post, I have Minnie Mouse buns yayyy! On their Groupon Coupon page they’ve got lots of offers such as Free Delivery and 60% off - check it out!

Swarovski - https://www.groupon.com/coupons/stores/swarovski.com

I’m allergic to Nickel and Cobalt Chloride (random, right?!) so I have to be careful about the type of jewellery I wear! Thankfully Swarovski sells lots of fab nickel free items. You guys know that when I do wear jewellery to London Fashion Week, I go all out!

Canon - https://www.groupon.com/coupons/stores/shop.usa.canon.com

All the pics on this post was taken with my Canon 100D - it's my baby! Everyday lots and lots of you ask me what camera I use so it's incredible that Groupon have this Retailer page where you can track offers and coupon codes for Canon! For a throwback, check out my London Fashion Week post with Canon UK.

Dell - https://www.groupon.com/coupons/stores/dell.com

I love the integration between fashion and technology. On Tuesday’s I do a #TechnologyTuesday where I talk about *drumroll* technology! Groupon Coupons (omg I just realised this rhymes, I love it!!). I’ve had a look at the Dell retailer page and they’ve got loads of great offers!

Go Daddy - https://www.groupon.com/coupons/stores/godaddy.com

I love all things tech, and I love all things digital and all things internet. I taught my self to code from a young age and I remember being absolutely overwhelmed with euphoria when I made my first website and when I was able to get my first domain! Getting domains can be so cheap and easy especially with go daddy so definitely check out their Groupon Coupons page for offers!

Puma - https://www.groupon.com/coupons/stores/store.puma.com

Rihanna did an AWESOME job at New York Fashion Week with her collection! Be sure to frequently check out the Puma retailer page for lots of offers! Also if you support Arsenal (like you should) you could totes get some gear with a Groupon Coupon (I’m loving that this rhymes!).

Birchbox - https://www.groupon.com/coupons/stores/birchbox

I’ve done a previous post with Birchbox which was superrrr fun and as I was browsing the Groupon Coupons I came across Bitchbox, they currently have some gem of offers such as 10% of full sized products and free delivery. This is awesome especially if you’ve tried a sample and loved it!

Travelocity - https://www.groupon.com/coupons/stores/travelocity.com

On Thursdays, I do #TravelThursday posts, so it was great to see some travel companies on Groupon Coupons such as Travelocity. Ahhh the word ’travel’ is so euphoric! Travelling always gives me a new lease of life so it’s amazing to get travel deals whenever possible! Fashion Week is across New York, London, Milan and Paris so I’ll defo be using these promo codes and offers for my next trips!

I hope you enjoyed today’s post. Speak to you soon!

Yours sincerely,

2016 Hair Goals, Length Check & Real Time Natural Hair Shrinkage #ManeMonday

2016-02-08T02:40:00.000+00:00

Hello beautiful!

So right now it's the Superbowl and I've just uploaded a video. YES that rhymed! My Length Check T-Shirt is from www.hairgoals.co.uk/shop and I will be tracking my hair goals, hair growth and hair journey frequently and throughout the whole of 2016 with this t-shirt! The next update video will be at the end of February 2016 / beginning of March 2016. What are your hair goals for 2016?

I like my baby hair with baby hair and afros! Shoutout to Beyonce and her new song Formation YAASSSS - how cute does Blue Ivy look too with all that gorgeous hair! Anyway, this video is a chilled hair goals, hair update, hair length check and real-time natural hair shrinkage video hence why it’s so long hahaha. I was debating on whether to split it into 2 videos but hopefully you like the way it edited it! I encourage you to leave a comment below answering the following question: what are your hair goals for 2016?

Over the course of the past few years, I've casually and randomly trimmed my hair haha as well as not being very well over 2014-2015 so my hair goals for 2016 is to continue growing my hair healthily but to also grow it longer! Repunzal length here I come! I like the shape of my hair currently, it's a 'V' shape so I guess my hair goal for the next few months will be '12' on this hairgoals length check t-shirt for the longest bits :)

P.S. I don't use heat or combs or brushes, so my natural hair isn't perfectly smooth in it's 'stretched' version but perfection is overrated haha! Learn to love yourself and love your natural hair :D

I’ve also included some AMAZING songs/covers throughout the whole video so you can literally chill, relax and enjoy!

1. Stitches - Sonna Rele (Originally by Shawn Mendes)
2. Formation – Beyonce (Snippet)
3. Love Yourself – Sonna Rele (Originally by Justin Bieber)
4. Ex Factor – Kesta Ria (Originally by Lauryn Hill)
5. Pillowtalk – PianoNest (Originally by Zayn Malik)
6. Nintendo Wii Trap Remix
7. Work – (Originally by Rihanna and Drake)

WIN an ASUS ZenPad 8.0 Tablet! Giveaway/Competition & Review #TechnologyTuesday

2015-12-01T16:00:00.000+00:00

Another Giveaway/Competition & Review?! Yayyy let's start this off super happy, YOU (yeah, you!) can win an ASUS ZenPad 8.0 Tablet!! I LOVE doing giveaways, it fills me with so much joy! I will definitely be doing lots and lots and lots during 2016! Carry on reading to find out how you can win! Firstly, WHERE HAS THE TIME GONE? Secondly, for those who don't know blogmas is when one posts daily during the festive month of December and likewise VlogMas is when one vlogs everyday! I have a YouTube too *plug* youtube.com/bootyfurl and I certainly be posting lots of treats on both my blog and youtube so definitely follow/like/subscribe on all social media haha *wink* - we can start with instagram @jenniferagwunobi :) In today's #TechnologyTuesday, I will be reviewing the ASUS ZenPad 8.0 and offering you the chance to win a brand new one, eeeek!

The ASUS ZenPad 8.0 was inspired by fashion (anddd you all know how I love the integration of fashion and technology!) so this was super exciting for me! The tablet and it's accessories have an intentional clutch-bag vibe as well as ergonomic rounded edges which make the ZenPad 8.0 SO comfortable to hold! I must emphasis the comfort, it doesn't feel like I'm carrying a tablet, it feels like I'm carrying a clutch bag.

Today has been interesting day tech wise, myself and family members lost A LOT of data. This is not the first time either, ever lost a phone? Someone stolen your possessions or perhaps an update simply corrupting your hardware (and software)? *Put hands up*. If you get anything from this post, it's important to start thinking about your data! I think we all need to get serious about cloud based backing up and security. It seems as though cloud based storage is winning because at the end of the day, hardware can always malfunction, and/or get stolen. Digital cloud based systems will always have a big question mark hovering on top of it as safety can be jeopardised but as of now i'll pro digital. Needless to say, I think it would be great to have back ups stored on a hard drive AND cloud based. I particularly love Google Photos for saving my photos but I will be doing lots of research into large scale storage systems for entire laptop/computer hard drives for rest of mind. Do you save your data? Do you back up?

Anyway BACK to the tablet review, I loved how the tablet granted 100GB free storage of Google Drive, that is a good amount of storage and it really gives rest of mind! Alongside Google Photo's auto-back up it's great. The fact that the ASUS Zen Pad 8.0 is android obviously has Google-advantages over Apple products for example. The ASUS ZenPad takes a little while to come on but I noticed that as soon as it's on it's exceptionally fast! It's quite refreshing using android products after being so used to other operating systems - it really challenges you to give everything a great look! Due to the speed of this tablet, I vouch to use it for productivity. We all know/get to that stage when our devices are full of memory and just SUPER SLOW. Thankfully with the 100GB of Google Drive, I will finally have a fast system which I can be productive on!

I will definitely be using the tablet for everything from on the go research to songwriting. Some of you may know already, I absolutely love songwriting - it makes me so happy and keeps me sane haha. I'm excited to experiment with the apps on the ASUS ZenPad 8.0 and write on the go!

Zsa Zsa wanted to get in the pics so I let her! #Dogue. That being said, shall we talk about what I'm wearing? It's an asymmetric light jumper dress that my aunty bought for me on a birthday many years ago. The ZenPad 8.0 has this beautiful embossed-leather patterning at the back which inspired my look for the day, it's a metallic grey-taupe colour just like elements of my 'jumper dress'. The ZenPad 8.0 is the world's first tablet to feature an innovative interchangeable cover design that lets users easily customise tablets with functional back covers. I think it'll make a great Christmas gift! Challenge someone to use a tablet like the ASUS ZenPad 8.0 as their safe-haven, e.g. my songwriting pad!

Now the part you've all been waiting for! I'm so excited to say that YOU can win a brand new ASUS ZenPad 8.0 Tablet for Christmas 2015! The competition will end 25/12/2015 at 23:59 GMT and the giveaway is open internationally. Don't forget to Like 'Bootyfurl' and 'ASUS' on Facebook and tag your most fashionable friend here - . You can also follow @jenniferagwunobi and @asushq on Instagram for additional entries - we'll be checking! To WIN this fabulous tablet for Christmas all you have to do is:

1. Follow @JenniferAgwunobi on Instagram
2. Follow @ASUShq on Instagram

And fill in this form so we can contact you if you win:

Thank you so much for reading and happy 1st of December! What are your plans for December/Christmas? Let me know!

Yours sincerely,

Jennifer Agwunobi

Best Apps for Travel & Christmas 2015 Getaway?! #TravelThursday

2015-11-26T15:04:00.000+00:00

Hello beautiful! Today is a #TravelThursday and a #ThrowbackThursday too with the pics, can you remember what country this is? Gold stars for whoever recalls correctly! Haha without further ado, I present to you, the best apps for Travel in 2015!

Remembering to bring your smartphone on holiday these days is almost as important as bringing your passport. With the right apps installed, a phone is a traveller’s best friend, helping you make the most of your trip!

So sit back, put your phone on charge, and take a look through my first of many lists of the best apps for travelling.

Skyscanner

As 35 million travellers’ first choice, Skyscanner compares thousands of flights from hundreds of airlines in only a few seconds. The handy app makes booking flights easy and is essential for finding cheap holidays. There may be apps which look fancier, however when it comes to flight comparison Skyscanner is reliable, trustworthy and incredibly simple to use.

TripAdvisor

Launched by the world’s largest travel website, the TripAdvisor app helps travellers find restaurants, hotels and attractions with amazing convenience. The most outstanding feature on the app, is the enormous list of honest reviews and suggestions gathered by the world’s largest travel community. The app also provides a standalone offline map and ‘Near Me’ feature, enabling users to discover options in the nearby vicinity.

Foodspotting

Foodspotting is a foodies dream app! This visually appealing app has a lovely visual interface, guiding users to the most authentic delicacies in a given location. The app’s growing community of food lovers post ratings and reviews which offer invaluable insights into the best restaurants and specific dishes nearby.

Google Maps

Google Maps is considered a must-have app for travel. Using a paper map seems almost prehistoric compared to Google Maps’ innovative GPS system. For those of you who are directionally-challenged, this useful app will track your position and provide the fastest route to any destination you enter. Make sure your version is the most up-to-date, and save the directions to your phone to navigate offline. It is important to note that countries such as China block Google Maps, so do your research before travelling to avoid any wrong turns.

Booking.com

Booking.com is dedicated to helping customers with varying budgets find the best accommodation for their requirements. With this free app, reserve a room without the need of a credit card, and manage your booking with ease. The app even works offline so you can sync the account information both in app and on desktop.

These apps are a great way to discover more of the place you are visiting, as well as making the trip smooth and hassle-free. Just remember to check your data plan before you travel. You don’t want shocking bill waiting for you when you return! Well that's unless you've got Feel At Home on the Three Network meaning you can use your data, calls and minutes just as if you were in England! I'm heading to Spain in a few days and SUPER excited to use it!! Until next time my bonita bellas!

Yours sincerely,

Jennifer Agwunobi

Top 5 Bag Trends for Autumn Winter 2015 #FiveThingsFridays

2015-11-13T10:42:00.001+00:00

So autumn is well and truly here, and there are a LOT of reasons to love the change of seasons! Not only does it look absolutely beautiful outside with all the autumnal (how many times have you heard this word?!) leaves but Christmas is near and there are general good vibes! Not to mention the autumnal style menu changes that reflect the delicious seasonal fabulousness now available, I’ve never tried it but I know a lot of you love Pumpkin Spiced Lattes, to be honest there seems to be pumpkin-flavoured everything around this season (lattes, pies, beer, you name it!) haha. And let’s not forget perhaps the best part of all: the influx of new fashion trends! To be honest I tend to hate the word ‘trend’ as it suggests that everyone should follow each other HOWEVER what I do like about the term is that you can take a ‘trend’ and make it your own! So with that being said, this post is here to be an inspiration for your autumnal (there’s that word again) style! I think I’m more of a summer person but I know that so many people love love love winter style and that it is their first love over summer! Either way we all have items that we have to wait a whole summer just to be able to wear these otherwise, we’d be seriously and literally be sweating in our boots!

As it’s finally November, we’ve broken out the booties (as in winter boots haha) and started seeing more and more scarves in shop windows, autumn is apparent every way we look. And while shopping for fabulous fur coats and supremely soft sweaters brings great joy to any fashion lover, sometimes we forget that apparel trends are not the only items we should be set on styling and that, in fact, accessories play a huge role in an ensemble.

With that said, there are a lot of fresh accessories on the scene this season, like bold jewellery and bedazzled beanies, to name a few. I’ve compiled five bag trends that could make their way to the top of your must-have or Christmas list by the time this post is done!

1. Little Luggage

OMG I love these! A modern take on the way we view luggage, cute and boxy purses found their way onto the catwalk this year. Fashionisers reported quite a few shows that presented these suitcase-turned-handbags, such as Louis Vuitton, Alexander McQueen, and Marc by Marc Jacobs. Whether leather, hard-cased, or embellished, there are big and small options for any woman who wants to give this trend a try. I never had any qualms in carrying literal-little-luggage on a normal day so I seriously love that these are becoming an actual thing haha.

2. Fearless Fringe

Holding on steady to the strong ‘70s trend we’ve seen so far this fall, fringe is a large component to the success of the throwback style. In fact, if you don’t already have a fringe bag, it’s time to get to the store and find one that suits your fancy! Popsugar shows us fringe galore at Rebecca Minkoff and a more reserved, tassles-only style at Tory Burch, you know how much I love Tory Burch, check out my last #FashionFriday.

3. Chic Rucksack

You’re mistaken if you think rucksacks are solely for school. These convenient carry-alls have strutted from one end of the style scene to the other. What was once a student must-have is now a coveted staple, as reported by Hollywood Life. You can recreate high fashion looks with similar-styled sacks. Lyst makes it easy to scope out splurges versus steals, showing a large variety of designers for every non-celebrity budget.

4. Bucket Bag

Coined as the “it bag” by ELLE, the bucket bag will forever hold one of the most effortlessly stylish spots on the fashion scene. There’s just something about its depth that makes you want to bring your planner, iPad, notebook, and another notebook, just in case. After all, you'll have the room for it. A bottomless bag that doesn’t scream Mary Poppins is a win in anyone’s book, and that’s why the slouchy but chic staple is still a top pick among style-setters worldwide.

5. Faux Fur Purse

When winter rolls ‘round, it’s easy to reach for furry-everythanggg as we look for extra warmth and cosiness. Luckily for us, everything can be covered (or at least trimmed!) with faux fur, because the texture is one of the hottest trends this season. Live out your warm, fuzzy and cosy dreams with a furry handbag. PurseBlog showed us that even Fendi’s not afraid to stray from its comfort zone – be inspired!

Yours sincerely,

Jennifer Agwunobi

The Juice Smith Launch Event #WellbeingWednesday

2015-11-04T14:23:00.000+00:00

BEAUTY FROM WITHIN, YES! Helloooo beautiful people and welcome to a brand new #WellbeingWednesday post for this week! I'm loving doing these regular weekly features! Last Thursday, I travelled down to Surrey from London to attend The Juice Smith launch event that I was invited to! Ready for an abundance of yummy (but healthy) food and drink pics?

The Juice Smith is a new vegan juice bar/café/restaurant in Surrey created by Richard Smith-Bernal, an ex-Rugby player. It is now open at 23 Oakdene Parade, Cobham, Surrey, KT11 2LR.

I’m not vegan but I am fascinated by the concept of being able to make food just as tasty despite not being made of certain things such as dairy! Apparently, a significant percent of people globally are lactose intolerant and don’t even know!

Something I really loved about them was their recycling, seems like a random thing to talk about but it's important! I noticed they had 'food waste' and 'mixed items separated so I had a chat with one of their Directors Priscilla and found out she's got similar interest too,

Living in the UK I think we all have tendencies of not actually visiting the UK (if that makes sense), we tend to stay in our hometowns and visit other countries more than we visit other towns, in some instances. I love travelling and I’m going to make sure I continuously travel more and more, this also includes the UK too! It’s cute to travel down new towns and explore, Cobham where The Juice Smith is was only 35 minutes away from London Waterloo! Another thing I love about travelling is using the minutes productively, I love learning new things so for example in these 30/40 mins, you could literally learn or begin to learn a new skill, I was particularly picking up on my Economics skills from my BSc Economics degree and simultaneously integrating that with my MSc Marketing degree skills as I was embarking on planning for a new project!

Whether you’re vegan or not, I think you’ll love this place. It’s quite cool knowing that you’re eating naturally derived healthy but tasty food which is actually good for you! I know some people like to do #MeatlessMondays etc so I guess popping down to The Juice Smith on a Monday could be a cute idea! Thanks for inviting down to the launch, it was great meeting Richard, Priscilla and the rest of the team - they're a great bunch with great vibes!

Until next time, my beautiful friends!

Yours sincerely,

Jennifer Agwunobi

Hello, Tory Burch. Hello Regent Street. Hello Autumn Winter 2015. Hello Adele.

2015-10-23T23:59:00.000+01:00

Hello, it’s me, I was wondering if after all these days you’d like another post? To go over, everything, they say blogging everyday is cool but I ain’t done that yet (coming soon!)

Hello, can you hear me?

I’m in London dreaming about Tory Burch parfum and walking down Regents Street.

Hello from the other side, I must’ve blogged about a thousand times…

Hello my beautiful friends!

Today was absolutely amazing! Not only did Adele’s new single “Hello” come out, but I spent the day in the gorgeous central of London, literally in the central of Regents Street and it was fab! I also filmed videos, so don’t forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel to check it out – youtube.com/bootyfurl :)

So, let’s talk Autumn Winter 15 fashion! So this coat is BAE. According to my papa it is 26 years old, hashtag vintage right?

This style of coat is the absolute best for winter, I never feel cold in the slightest when I wear it! #CoatGoals, I appreciate that it may be super difficult to find this coat as it been… 26 years :/ however here are some similar items I found on the next for you beauts! It’s got quite a joules clothing vibe, very British, very traditional yet very fashionable #JoulesChique and I love it! They're actually currently running a competition where you can design your own personalised wellies and there are some great prizes up for grabs including a luxury break worth £5000! All proceeds from the winning boots go to charity, which is fab! You can enter at getcreative.joules.com :)

I took it to the streets of London, Regent Street to be precise and I did an impromptu shoot right in the middle with my brand new scent Tony Burch Absolu which is now absolutely my absolute fave right in this moment in time. It’s such a beautiful husk, it’s quite mature yet sweet like a bold floral bouquet of Rose, fresh Tuberose and the radiance of Jasmine Sambac… literally. The base offers intense refinement with a balancing mix of creamy sandalwood, cedar-wood and vanilla. OMG and can we mention the bottle please! SO BEAUTIFUL, the signature fretwork top is to die for #bottlegoals. I’m in loveeee. It looks gorgeous on my table top too, the whole vibe of this fragrance really fitted in with my outfit vibe for the day, soft sophistication. Love it! It’s available exclusively at Harrods and Tory Burch Boutique.

My hair is back in a semi-sleek just-sorta-woke-up-and-didn’t-do-anything-to-it-because-I-fell-asleep-in-my-bun and decided to leave it exactly as it is sorta thang. Buns are the best for winter, they’re so easy and keep your hair out of the uncertain British weather! Plus it goes quite well with the minimal look.

I styled my joule clothing vibe coat with bare essentials underneath, aka a simple strappy top and black track pants with black sandal heels. So simple but effective! This is one of my staple styles for winter, a statement coat and basics. Not to forget a spot of red lipstick too. Try it!

You can see NFL signs in the background of the pics, tomorrow on Regents Street will be the award-winning 'NFL on Regent Street' and it’s back on for its third year. Central London will becomes home to a massive NFL fan festival, so exciting! Make sure to go down to London tomorrow to check it out, the street will be the host to an all American football-themed block party where shoppers will be able to witness cheerleading and team drum-line performances, get involved with interactive games, and consume yummy food and drink.! You can even go down to Five Guys for a cheeky American style Lunch or Dinner – I may or may have not done exactly this. Guilty.

Oooh so it’s a week until Halloween ayyy?! What are you guys planning to be? I may have filmed a cheeky video today which may or may not be up tomorrow!

Yours sincerely,

Jennifer Agwunobi

How To Make Perfect Juice At Home & #RealJuiceTruths with Joe Wicks + Philips Viva Collection Juicer - #WellbeingWednesday

2015-10-21T17:59:00.003+01:00

I’m so fascinated by health and by the concept that eating Kale can literally make you glow, or eating flaxseeds can top up your Iron thus make you fleeky or that eating an apple a day can totes keep the doctor away or that avocado can give you a healthy heart and much much more. All natural, wholesome and awesome.

Do you ever remember being young and trying to make juices? We’ve ALL done this, whether we’ve tried literally squeezing oranges into a cup only to be welcomed with an array of seeds and one teaspoon equivalent of juice. Or even trying to ‘blend’ apples in a standard basic b blender hoping it’ll taste like apple juice straight out of the shop. Yup, I’ve attempted making some gage worthy ‘juices’ in my time. And because you made it and you don’t want to waste it, you try to drink it but it’s literally torture haha. Anyway, no more of that haha.

Last month, Philips sent me their new juicer from the Viva Collection, alongside a large range of the freshest fruits and vegetables (oooh and a generous bag of flaxseeds). When it comes to anything technology, health, beauty, anything, I believe it is important to test it out for as long as possible in order to know the ins and outs henceforth I tested this beautiful baby for weeks. And on first impressions, I love it. I’m completely overwhelmed with how good it is. Lo and behold, THE JUICE ACTUALLY TASTES LIKE JUICE! Even better!

This post is also pretty much like a first-impressions and un-boxing post too! I wanted you all to experience every moment with me.

Coincidently today is #NationalAppleDay! Not Apple the technology company but apple as in the actual apple as in the fruit as in the thing that makes AMAZING juices. But speaking about technology, I may as well give you some quick specs! The juicer can make up to 2 liters of juice, it's a quick-clean system and the whole thing can be cleaned in less than a minute, the components open apart quite easily once you get the hang of it, thus you can get down to the nitty gritty's with a trusted sponge aka, The juicer has a handy suction on the bottom which ensures stability when making your juice! No pre-cutting is required (which is good because I ain't about dat pre-cutting lyf haha) due to the XL feeding tube.

There are A LOT of myths when it comes to Juice and Juice making thus here at Bootyfurl with the help of Philips and Joe wicks aka The Body coach *exhale* - we are here to demystify them all! I love how Joe is real with his facts, no bull! No beet just root. Haha get it? No...? Awks!

Top 5 myths about juicing:

Myth 1 - 'Juice has too much sugar'
Store-bought juices may have added sugars but using a juicer ensures that you know exactly what's going inside your juice - just fruit!

Myth 2 - 'Juicers are expensive'
I've always wanted a juicer! I remember watching tele-shopping channels when I was younger and seeing really (then) hi-tech juicers and thinking I need one en mi vida. Times have changed now however, juicers are not as expensive as they used to be - thank God! You can even get a Philips Viva Collection Compact juicer for £40. Calculate how much you may have spent on juice in the past month, whether it be grocery spends and/or restaurants and or lunch drinks and you'll soon realise it may be worth investing in a juicer! Plus the Viva Collection juicer I reviewed can make up to two liters of juice so you can totally take it with you to university or school! As for the fruit itself, you can go to local grocers for the same quality fruit but at a cheaper rate!

Myth 3 - 'Juicing is good for a quick fix weight loss'
I disagree with 'quick fixes' - this is a #WellbeingWednesday and I'm looking at juicing as a way of making you feel good, think of all the yummy nutrients! I'm not looking at it as a fad diet, we've all heard of these 'lose-weight-fast' strategies, let's not buy into that! When you prioritise wellbeing over weight, you'll realise that you will want to do things for yourself, aka feel good and look after yourself by consuming fruit and veg. Quick fixes and crash diets are pointless and totally unsustainable - plus they probably make you feel unhappy. It’s all about real food, real nutrients and plenty of good fuel for the body. Remember, wellbeing and lifestyle go hand and hand!

Myth 4 - 'Blending is better for you than juicing'
Supposedly Juicing isn't good as it 'takes away all the nutrients' - this is totally a myth. I've heard this myth many times in passing! Juicing and blending both benefit the body in different ways according to Joe Wicks. Juicing makes it easier for you to consume more fruits and vegetables! The UK Department of Health recognises that juice counts towards the recommended five-a-day. That’s because juice retains all of the nutritional value of whole fruit or vegetables, with the exception of fibre. You can increase juice quality by using cold produce and juicing is a great way to add essential vitamins and minerals to your diet, so juice consistently and drink it fresh. It's an amazing way to start getting more variety in and it may encourage you to try lots more new things!

Myth 5 - 'Vegetable juice tastes horrible'
Hahaha Just as Nike say 'Just Do It', when it comes to anything HEALTHY I say "Just Drink It" #yaaasssss :P

--

Staying on the theme of Top Fives, next week Friday I will be featuring my top 5 faves juice recipes created by The Body Coach himself, Joe Wicks - check him out on Instagram @TheBodyCoach!

I was honestly so surprised at just how nice everything tasted, PERFECT juice made at home. I didn't expect it! Literally in goes the fruit and vegetables into the Philips Viva Collection Juicer and BAM in seconds, no bits, no nada, just pure juice. I've been wanting a juicer since I was little so you can probably tell just how excited I was when I made my first juice haha. So there it was guys, how to make a perfect juice at home AND juicing myths debunked! I guess you'll have to come back next Friday to see all the rest of purdy pictures.

The Philips Viva Collection Juicer is currently 35% off on Amazon - you can buy it now before the offer runs out!

Until next time my beautiful friends!

Yours sincerely,

How To Be A Girl Boss #MotivationMondays

2015-10-12T16:11:00.000+01:00

Photography: Jeremiah Charles Morrison (insta: @jerryldn_)

How does one become a #GirlBoss? What even is a Girl Boss? Well 'Girl Boss' is a term that was coined by Nasty Gal owner Sophia Amoruso after an abundance of success!

I recently completed a masters at the University of East Anglia, it was a challenging but exceedingly rewarding experience! The masters was MSc Marketing and I had previously completed a BSc Economics at my previous university for anyone who's interested! :)

When I was there, I took a society from 2 years dormant to thriving and that society was my baby, the UEA Entrepreneurs Society! I also started a UEA Fashion Society! That being said, I was the president of two societies, the UEA Entrepreneur Society and the UEA Fashion Society, whilst doing a fulltime masters, it was hard but it was great and wonderful and the best and sooo rewarding and I won awards at the Union Awards 2015!

This was all the way in June hence why I'm wearing a dress, though we have been having an Indian Summer in October so I should totes wear it again right?!

What I used to tell every single student entrepreneur was to believe in themselves. You too should BELIEVE IN YOURSELF whether you want to be an entrepreneur or not! It's sooo important! It's hard I know, I still find it so hard to believe in myself too, everyday but we can support each other and remind one another. If you have a goal, a dream, GO FOR IT! You can do it, honestly!

Right this moment, I want you to write your dream on a piece of paper, or the notes section of your phone to be more semi eco friendly, and underneath it, write one thing you can do right this moment to achieve your goals or at least become one step closer. They said a goal without an action is just a wish, so today is the right moment to start. Right now.

So there you have it! In my opinion, the first steps to being a #GirlBoss is to BELIEVE IN YOURSELF (you are great, you are wonderful, you are the best) and then create actionable steps in order to reach your ultimate goal.

GO GO GO!

P.S. thank you so much for Jeremiah Charles Morrison for taking the pics! Go follow him on Instagram! @JerryLdn_ :)

Yours sincerely,
Jennifer Agwunobi

London Fashion Week SS16 - Day 5.

2015-09-23T00:18:00.000+01:00

SS16 was absolutely amazing! I had so much fun as per!

Surprisingly, Day 5 didn't rain as much as the previous days and it was relatively "warm" so I threw on my polka dot sheer insert crop top and my ballerina style skirt with my bootyfurl ballerina bun which is a great protective style!

Yours sincerely,

Jennifer Agwunobi

London Fashion Week SS16 - Day 4.

2015-09-23T00:17:00.002+01:00

Day 4 was raining horrendously but I wasn't gonna let that stop me!

I opted for a polka dot encrusted sheer body suit that has definitely seen better days haha tucked into my trusted ASOS track pants (which are my absolute faves). All merged together with a waist belt!

I can officially state that this hair is rain-proof, such a great protective style in which the rain doesn't change much, I didn't know what to expect but the buns stayed in tact! Funny little back story, I asked my brother if my parting was straight before I left and he said yes haha!

MY NAILS, I'm so in loveeee. Done on day 3 by Dry By London at Collate London and they truly fill my heart with joy every time I look at them <3

Of course, I finished off the look with my Minnie Mouse camera bag :)

Yours sincerely,

Jennifer Agwunobi

London Fashion Week SS16 - Day 3.

2015-09-23T00:17:00.000+01:00

Just like day 2, I spent lots of time at Collate London because I absolutely genuinely love it - good vibes and great people! Day 3 was the last day so I wanted to cherish every moment, thank you so much to Geo, Maureen, Erica, Jummy, Sophie - you are all queens!

My mode of transportation for Day 3 was #RiriTaxiUK basically a trusted black cab with Rihanna's beautiful face on it - so thank you to Rihanna, Collate and the patient driver for taking me from show to show!

My absolute highlight of the entire day was the Minnie Mouse: Style Icon exhibition. As you may possibly know from my blog, tweets, insta, youtube... I LOVE MINNIE MOUSE!

Yours sincerely,

Jennifer Agwunobi.

London Fashion Week SS16 - Day 2.

2015-09-23T00:14:00.001+01:00

I'll start off by apologising for my lack of #vogue posing, sometimes (ALL THE TIME) I cannot help but smile haha. Diesel have a new campaign and one of the key liners are "Fashion doesn't smile but we do" or something, it's so me!

Scola Dondo is an absolute babe, such an amazing aura and great energy!

We went to the Collate London Refuel Room which was THE BEST, brands such as Simple, Nike, Fountain, Illamasqua, River Island. It was so nice to catch up with blogger babes and speak to brands about new collections etc. We were treated to Five Guys (yummy yummy for my tummy) and the best teas oh my goshhhh THE BEST. Most amazingly, there was an array of books from Lean In to Four Hour Work Week, how many people can say they got to chill and read a good book at fashion week?

Next I frowed House of Cuocco which I loved because it was wearable, so much fun!

Yours sincerely,

Jennifer Agwunobi

London Fashion Week SS16 - Day 1.

2015-09-23T00:13:00.003+01:00

Oh hey LFW, welcome to Soho!

Day 1 was super fab!

T-Shirt - Custom
Trousers - ASOS
Heels - New Look

Day one of London Fashion Week, I kept it quite simple and decided to blend in with my camo... haha get it? Camouflage? Nope? Okayyy moving on Taylor-y... oh sorry I meant swiftly ;)

Hair
Sleeked back in a taut bootyfurl ballerina style bun with no heat or gel, gasp?!

Beauty
In the morning slash afternoon I had on Rimmel London - Kate Moss 01 and later on I wanted a top-up but realised that I only had Nyx Matte on me which was cool but I really wanted a sheen so I had an appointment with the lovely team at Maybelline who topped me up with a lucious red.

Tech
My iPhone 6 Plus was my absolute bae this day! LFW were giving out free talktalk business portable chargers but I forgot to grab one so my phone ran out of battery eventually! However it did decently well considering I used it to vlog throughout the whole day - 30 mins worth of footage which I had to condense! I was also using the maps throughout the day in the pouring rain going from show to show, I love a bit of cardio (in heels, clearly haha). I'm on Three and have unlimited internet so I didn't have to worry for a second about my 3G/4G running out! Thankfully I love walking and I don't mind rain, AND I kept my phone protected with my Queu Queu white marble phonecase so it was all good in the hood!

Pictures from my iPhone 6 Plus

YOU are beautiful and I love you!

Encore #MusicMonday

2015-07-14T12:43:00.001+01:00

Music Monday on a Tuesday? If that isn't #ThugLife, I don't know what is. Hashtag YOLO, Hashtag Living Life on the Edge, Hashtag Humpty Dumpty.

Saturday night, I had THE best time ever. Music is therapeutic. Dance is therapeutic. Music and Dance is everything. #Encore2015 came and conquered. I was invited as VIP and had all access, it was such an incredible show full of good vibes.

I loveee seeing up and coming artists and witnessing their growth, it's such a great feeling to see the passion seeping through every word and movement. Artists included Rotimo, LDNC, Silvastone, Vicky Sola, Ajay, Tyroon Da Prince, Martel B and Rough Copy (from X Factor),

All access meant I got to speak to everyone from the artists to the drummers to the dancers - I had an amazing time!

Music is all the therapy you'll ever need.

(How hipster was that ending?!)

Yours sincerely,

Jennifer Agwunobi

Marni Spice Eau De Parfum - #WellbeingWednesday

2015-06-24T19:26:00.000+01:00

Okay so firstly, you guys know I love polka dots so it was inevitable that I was gonna love the Marni Spice bottle - it's beautifully polka-dotted up! Day is always made when I look at it haha. If I was a bottle Marni Spice would be me!

This was such a fun shoot - one of my favourite photoshoots ever!

The scent is beautiful, it reminds me of a spa. It makes me feel so relaxed! Scents are amazing things because they are associated with feelings (the feels). I'm sure you have a scent that makes you happy and/or reminds you of something or someone. Any scent that smells like my mum and my dad makes me happy haha. In fact when I had exams, I would try to wear something of my mum's like a cardigan to make me feel calm! Hence the wellbeing factor!

Marni Spice is incredible, I wish you could smell it via my blog! My outfit is quite reminisce of what the fragrance portrays to me - it's quite mysterious. A beautiful blend of black pepper, red pepper, ginger, cardamom, cinnamon, rose, jasmine, mimosa, patchouli, benzoin and musk - can you imagine all these beautifully intertwined together! It smells amazingly devine😭

My phone case is Queu Queu - White Marble :)

The scents lasts for whole day for me even in these current high vitamin D vibes in the atmosphere!

On my lips I'm wearing Mac Russian Red - one of my staples!

This cat was showing me how to get dem gains.

P.S. on my toes I have Michael Kors Nail Lacquer Polish in Paradise from the limited-edition Into the Glow collection. It's a beautiful soft coral with a fiery rosy feel - it makes me happy as it subtly screams spring summer (oxymoron and alliteration haha).

My bae Zsa Zsa got jel of the cat so she asked to be involved in the shoot.

... and lastly for luck, I couldn't resist putting on my A-Z Essentials Minnie ears!

Marni Spice is available exclusively at Harrods.

Marni Spice is a lively and spontaneous dialogue between strength and delicacy, designed for a woman who loves the beauty of surprise. So I leave you with that last picture my loves, surpriseeee haha #MarniSpice #Mysterious 😂

Yours sincerely,

Jennifer Agwunobi
