HOLIDAY SPIRIT
I can't believe that Christmas is just 4 days away!
Seems like just yesterday we started the year 2014 (cliché, I know. lol)
Well, I'm glad y'all are here with me to see the end of this year.
MAKE IT LAST
After spending 5 years in Uni wearing black n white 5 days a week, I thought I would be fed up with the combo by now.
But alas, I love it more everyday.
lol
BLUE BELLE
I Can't believe that 2014's almost over.
It seems like just yesterday we were saying the 'Happy New Years' n 'Welcome to 2014'.
How time flies.
DIY - OMBRE HAIR
Seems like I'm the only one who hasn't jumped on the Ombre Hair band-wagon.
I'm sure y'all are used to my being a lastma by now.
lol
Well, I decided to try it out but I couldn't risk giving my weave to a hair stylist who might not do it the way I want or swap my weave for something cheaper (don't be surprised, scarier things have happened).
So
I decided to dye my weave ombre myself.
YELLOW CROCHET
The sun was truly at its peak today!
Phewww!
Long Time no Blog!
I know, I know.
So sowie for the long absence
DOUBLE LEATHER
You know how one piece of clothing or something random cam inspire the creation of an outfit/ensemble, well that how this look came about.
SHADES OF RED
Hello darlings!
Hope y'all had a great weekend.
Mine went by so fast. 24 hours in a day doesn't seem sufficient these days.
DOUBLE PEPLUM
That annoying moment when you wear a really nice outfit but your pictures don't turn out so good.
The weather just messed up my pictures today. Some were really bright while others were super dull.
I had to add lighting to a couple of them to brighten them up a lil.
STRIPES IN THE SUN
The weather in this part of the country is always at its extreme.
When its cold, its really cold and when its hot, the sun is hot enough to fry an egg!
FLORAL N KICKS
I shy away from mini dresses as much as possible. I wore them alot when I was much younger and 3 sizes smaller.
I wear them once in a while; I've got a few un-worn mini dresses in my closet though I gave majority of them away.
OLIVE GREEN
I only recently found out that this shade of green is called Olive Green n not Army Green.
lol
TREND ALERT - FRINGE
And no, I'm not referring to the hairstyle (which on the other note is so in right now, I mean everyone's rocking the fringe hair, well except me.)
TOP BEAUTY TIPS
Beautiful is a feeling. It’s presence of mind, a strong body, a glow from the inside out. It's being comfortable in your own skin. It's a lifestyle. We might be too busy to look after ourselves the way we want. But I've researched and found easy ways that can help us look good, healthy, harmonious and beautiful without stress.
I've been able to work most of these tips into my day-to-day activities, and so can you!
So here are 25 beauty tips that you might find helpful.
DOUBLE GREY
You would all agree with me that Kim Kardashian's a Super Style Star.
Her style is flawless and sophiscated.
On closer examination, you would notice that most of her pieces are nude, black, and white.
Her style has evolved over time and has gotten better and better especially after getting together with Kanye.
I must say he affected her style positively even though a lot of people would argue with me on this.
Nway, Kim's recent style is geared towards a minimalist style and that's my reason for loving it.
PEPLUM LOVING
I've been spending alotta time by myself these past few days and I've been loving every minute of it! lol
I wrote a lot, mostly items I need to buy, lol. I also tried to make plans on things I need to do within a period of time. While trying to do this, I took a pause.
I'm a huge planner, I plan my activities of the day in my head, what I would have for breakfast/lunch, how I would style an item in my closet even if it takes me 2 years before I wear them. etc.
But I've come to realise that most times things don't go the way we planned them to go and then we are highly disappointed.

This is a very belated post.
I've had these pictures on my computer for a while now.
I was shot by my friend and photographer, Nonso K at a very nice location (I know you can tell the difference, hehehe). I've been super lazy to go and pick up the main pictures from him. I keep procrastinating.
So while doing laundry this morning, I saw the dress in my pile of clothes and I just thought I should post these 'sample' pictures anyway.

I finally get to wear my gorgeous booties!
I finally ... oh, that's all.
lol
TMI TAG - 20 RANDOM FACTS ABOUT ME
Forgive my long absence.
I've been down for a while now.
Firstly I entered a cab, 'one chance' (my naija peeps would understand this berra) and got robbed of all the cash I had on me. After mourning my loss for a few days, I fell sick.
But now I'm all better now and ready to take over the world! lol
BLACK N YELLOW
Hi darlings!
Guess y'all had a great weekend.
Guess y'all had a great weekend.
Just wanted to share the outfit I wore during the weekend.
WHAT'S IN MY MAKE-UP BAG?
So, I've gotten a couple of questions on how I do my make-up, the products I use etc.
This post would cover the make-up products I use. This is not a review of any of the products mentioned.
SUNSHINE BLOGGER AWARD
The Sunshine Blogger Award is a way for bloggers to get to know each other and a way for readers to know a little more about me.
THE GREAT GATSBY
1920's has got to be my favourite era and this is mainly because of the fashion.
Drop-waist dresses, Glitzy, deco-inspired jewellery, Printed head scarves... Bold, Blinged and Beautiful!
The movie, The Great Gatsby (seen it like a hundred times) re-awakened my love for this fashion era. And, I'm quite sure I'm not alone in this obsession.
ZUHAIR MURAD SS15 COLLECTION
Its no news that I'm a huge fan of Zuhair's work (this blog can sorta be like a portfolio of his work, lol)
Just wanted to share his 2015 collection.
Enjoy!
IRO N BUBA
I warned y'all about the oleku flood. lol
Well. here's another take on the Iro n Buba trend.
ANNE ELISE REAL HAIR
Gorgeous hair!
I received an email a while ago from the CEO OF Anne Elise Real Hair , a virgin hair extension company, to review one of her hair blends.
I had read a review of one of her products on a blog and it was full of praises about Anne Elise Real Hair.
TREND ALERT -TROPICAL PRINT
In what seems like a sea of ugliness really (but quite refreshing nonetheless), this explosion of color and chaotic mix of all the flora and fauna of beaches, forests, gardens, islands and whatnot is exactly what we’ve been waiting for to balance everything out, if not to make us enjoy the hot season properly. Fashion wise.
TREND ALERT - TULLE SKIRT
Basically it embodies everything us girls love about fashion, and going all the way with the tulle skirt is acceptable. Sexy stilettos, red lips and ponytail. At this point nobody cares what top you’re wearing, so glamming it up or going understated with a plain tee is up to you.
RED AFFAIR
Hello Hello!
Just wanted to quickly share the outfit I wore to a wedding today.
I've had this dress for about a year n a half now and I'm just wearing it for the first time.
Cos of the mesh detail (that's transparent), it took me a while to wear it but I finally did.
BOOT-CUT JEANS
I'm such a huge fan of Victoria 'Posh' Beckham's style. Her style's very chic and classy with a touch of edginess and she's the queen of Boot-Cut Jeans!
She brought it with her from the 90's and has rocked it many times, many ways.
