Okay, let’s just get one thing out of the way real quick. I AM OBSESSED WITH SETS! And I am so excited to see that sets are really taking off, in a big way this season.

Take a seed, sow the seed, water the seed, give it sunlight, continue until seed sprouts, then continue again and again until the seedling becomes a plant, then plant the plant, fertilise, water and give it sunlight, until eventually said plant flowers and produces fruits which you get to enjoy.

Blogging may be dead, but I’m not.

Hello, is anybody out there? If you are reading this as a long time, old school follower of StyleScoop then Hiiiiiiiiiii. You’re probably wondering what the heck Dimi, the last time you posted on here was what, a million years ago. What the hell happened? Well, to be honest, I got tired of the whole blogging world. The constant pressure to make sure I was at every event, covering every lucrative brand and on everyone’s social media radar. But I really hated when blogging became more about obsessing about those dreaded social media followers than it did about the blog.…
