Last week Example passed through The Candy Store for a catch up and to collect the 1st piece
from the Example/Jilted collaboration line that will be released in a few months.
1st début was Wednesday at Itunes Festival.
This went out to 2.2 million viewers in over 100 countries.
Also covered by The Daily Star
And the Guardian
….Keep your eyes on the blog for more info about the 1st Collab drop.
On July 22nd I opened my new shop ‘The Candy Store’
Many things have changed in my life over the last few years as people who have followed my blog from the beginning will know!
My change of career/life has been an uphill struggle and the hard work has been continuous to pull together all the things I have!
Despite this I wouldn’t have it any other way and looking back the struggle has definitely been worth it!
I wont stop doing what I do until I have achieved everything I set out to do around 4years ago!
The ‘pulling together’ is 1 thing but for me its the maintaining that has been the issue,
my mind is at times a volatile place and my actions are often uncontrollable.
(The opening of this store for me personally was a sign that things are heading in the right direction and I have finally achieved full self control!)
….Things can only get better, ONWARDS AND UPWARDS!
1st purchase of the day!
New Jilted ‘KEYS’ Tee + Diamonds snapback.
Stressed! ha
….Skanky Boy keeping the vibe going.
