The Climate weather condition we experience here in Nigeria is the Wet and Dry Season. Summer they say is the season between Spring and Autumn, Some say it's the hottest time of the year, but generally all over the world, it is the period comprising of the months of June, July and August. Sorry lovelies, I have been MIA and there is no excuse enough to have blanked out like that, please bear with me. Fashionistas really like to gush about summer because its that time of the year to bring our daring fashion game on, go on Vacations, Summer holiday, Out door Sporting activities like skiing,swimming, picnics and so on. In the summer activities, we like to dressup and bring our fashion game on.

Hi lovelies, I know I have been MIA for a week now, and I apologize because I have been having issues with my Laptop, electricity and my internet service provider #ProblemsOfANigerianBlogger, a new post coming soon.

  Good day lovelies and a Happy Easter celebration, hope you all had a wonderful time out? For me it was food all the way, I hope to bring my culinary expertise here soon. So back to the matter, WHAT IS REALLY ON FLEEK? Sounds like a Rhetorical question and a direct question. Lately on Social Media the phrase, slang or word   fleek and the question what have you got on fleek has been trending, as Social media has become the new world paradigm, it would be very difficult for you to cope if you don’t understand the trends. I first heard the word, fleek from Boity Thulo a South African presenter on club 808, as I was still trying to figure out the meaning and where it came from, I saw a very funny caption from my Fashion Entrepreneur friend UREZ of UREZ KULTURE. I am dedicating this post to her, because she inspired it with this funny question on BBM                                   ...

Hi lovelies! Happy New Month and Happy Holy week. So its been very busy, political and mischievous throughout last week and this week for we in Nigeria , political in the sense that we just concluded our 2015 Presidential election and #CHANGE has been on the tongue of most people, you have to know about Nigeria politics to know what it means. Mischievous in the sense that I have been pranked and I also pranked a lot of people yesterday because of the "APRIL FOOL" fever.

Good day peeps, If you are not watching EMPIRE, what are you doing? So there is this new series making waves on FOX, the name is EMPIRE, just concluded the 1st season that has 12 episodes, I am really anticipating the next and more seasons to come. What strikes me in the Season movie EMPIRE, is the P lot , the C haracter and then the F ashion sense . About the Fashion Sense, Cookie played by Taraji P. Henson had some amazing, fierce, sophisticated and elegant outfit that really caught my attention, what struck me about her outfits were the Prints and Patterns on most of the Body con dresses she wore in season 1, so I decided to recreate cookie's style in a body con dress. I searched my wardrobe, checked some online store but finally came up with this pattern, not exactly what cookie wore, but its a body con dress and I like the patterns on it Cookie Lyon's outfits featured a lot of Body Con, Fur, Prints, Patterns, pumps, wedge and bootlegs from the time she left pris...

Happy Mother's day to all the successful women and mum, who have done so well in bringing up good children, running successful businesses, taking care of their men and impacting the world positively. Last week was Women's Day and this week is Mothers day. Mother's day celebration always feels so fesitive to me, from all the presentations by kids to the women, rendations and presentations by women to the congregation at my place of worship, then finally back home to a sumptuous meal by my sweet mother. My Mum has always thought me how to be successful, through acquiring an education, skills and how to be a proverb 31 verse 10-31 kind of woman, the trainings are hard and sometimes annoying, but it is paying off now, in the long run can we all appreciate .I have been inspired by the way she multitask from office to business, then school, taking care of her husband, kids and relatives #supermom , I can tell most women are familiar with this. As a media lover that I am, I ta...
