Is any wardrobe ever complete without a piece of striped clothing? I think not. Stripes have a way of uplifting an outfit no matter how casual. The vertical or horizontal lines have this effect that oozes elegance which is so eye catching and effortless. Grids on the other hand which I like to refer to as the sister of stripes, gives...
After reading that heading you must be like "How is that even possible??" You see, in every bad situation I've come across in life, I always try my best to find the good in it and that's exactly what I did when the recession hit. At first I was completely unaware about the changes my lifestyle was undergoing until one evening when I...
My blog turned 2 on Sunday and I didn't remember till about 10pm that day which is very unlike me. This wasn't how I envisaged that it would turn out but you know how life can be. Some days I ask myself why I even have a blog in the first place if I can't be so consistent with it. But then, I...
Culottes(pronounced kuulots) has to be one of the most stylish and comfortable items to own. For those days when you're not feeling like a skirt or pair of trousers, culottes are there to the rescue! I mean, it looks like a skirt but is technically a pair of trousers. Love! Currently, I own about 3 pairs of culottes which includes this gingham piece...
Its been a year and 11 months of blogging and I can tell you it has been a fun and learning experience. I feel you all know the type of person I am from my writings but that's just a fraction of me. That's why I decided to come up with this post so you can know a little bit more about me....
I know!! I went MIA again but with good reasons. June was the craziest month I've had so far this year but I made it through. Thank God! Juggling work, tailoring classes and house chores isn't the easiest combination in the least bit so blogging had to take the backseat for a short while. Pardon my absence pleaseee! A very Happy July to...
Hello darlings and welcome to June! It's midyear already and I'm having a bit of mixed feelings. How's the year been so far for you? I recently started intense tailoring/sewing lessons and I can't wait to share my work with you guys. Today, I'm going to shed more light on Pinterest for those who don't understand what it's all about. Consider this a...
Hey lovelies! May is almost over and I'm so relieved! Like, you can't imagine. All glory and thanks to God. I'm just really happy that I've been considerably consistent and hope it stays that way. It's children's day here in Nigeria so Happy Children's Day to all my Naija people. It also saddens my heart when I remember the children who lost their...
Hey guys! Hope you had a relaxed weekend. I don't think there's anyone who doesn't have something made out of denim in their wardrobe. Be it a pair of trousers, skirt, shirt, bag, jacket or shoes, you just have to love denim for its versatility. Focusing on today's outfit, there was a time when denim on denim was a fashion faux pas. Remember...
Sabbath- Sunday observed among Christians as a day of rest and worship or a time of rest. Wouldn’t it be awesome if we had one day set aside where everyone drops their mobile phones, tablets and laptops and just stay off the internet? Wishful thinking... It seems like our lives are now so embedded in these various devices and we can’t live without...
Big Chop; "the process of cutting off the relaxed or permed ends of one's hair when she is transitioning from chemically processed hair to natural hair". - NaturallyCurly.com Two things made me cut off my permed hair last year; curiosity and adventure. I was curious and eager to find out what my natural hair looked and felt like. Before now, the only memory...
“Are those your natural nails?” This is often a conversation starter whenever I’m in the salon making my hair. When I reply “Yes”, sometimes it’s met with admiration and other times, I get replies like, “Wow! They don’t break off easily?" Some go as far as touching them (to also confirm if they're really real.lol!) and they're amazed at how strong the nails...
I know...I went AWOL just like that! I didn't mean to disappear without any prior notice, but you know what they say about life...it happens. How have you been?? Gosh! I really missed being here. I had to relocate out of Lagos because of work. Been trying to settle some other personal stuff and also adjusting to my new routine. Unfortunately, blogging had...
I used to think I'd earned a gold medal when it comes to patience but recent events this month have proved otherwise. But can we really be all that patient? Hmmm, I'm still in the process of finding out. How's February been for you? So far, mine has been strenuous but I always had my blog and you, my awesome readers in mind....
