A Pop Of Fushia

What I'm wearingDress - The Limited (Available  Here) || Belt - Available @ Dressed ||Shoes - Available @ Dressed || Ring  - Available @ Dressed || Bag - Kohls  (old)  ||  Sunnies -  Guesss  (old) || Earrings  - Givenchy

This dress on its own is plain and simple but this is the best thing about simple plain coloured outfits, they serve as blank canvases where you can pile on different colours and textures. Simple plain coloured dresses can be easily styled in a variety of ways with a wide range of colours, textures and even accessories and they would easily absorb it without overwhelming the outfit.....far from it they literally just make simple plain dresses pop!

Have a  fab week guys!

These are a few photos from a friends wedding I attended recently, It was a beautiful...beautiful event.The ambiance was fabulous, food was good and the guests were uber chic, It was a lot of fun like most Nigerian weddings are noted for. Have you noticed how weddings these days go on until much later in the evenings and actually turn into full blown parties? A couple of weddings I have attended this year have been like that, and I must say I actually prefer it, it saves the couple the hassle of having a separate after party because the whole event is merged into one and continues late into the evening and it affords the guests the much needed opportunity to unwind, mingle and have full blown unadulterated fun!

Wishing the couple God's many blessing as they embark on this wonderful journey! Thanks Bunmi, your wedding was super beautiful!


Have a Fab Weekend Ahead!

OD'ing On Dots

Wearing similar patterns from head to toe can sometimes be tricky, how does one wear polka dots from head to toe without looking like Minnie mouse :). A simple trick I usually apply when wearing different patterns or similar patterns that can tend to be too matchy-matchy, is to play with the proportions of the patterns.
I usually balance bigger prints or patterns with smaller ones and where possible break up the look with neutral accessories, wearing neutral accessories helps to tone down the effect and balance the whole look.

I'm feeling really buff  in these photos  that I feel the need to do an Insanity Update, weight loss goal check.... Mrs Obama's arms almost check :) . I'm still watching my portions actively but I have since reduced the number of days I workout to mostly 3 times a week. I have reached my weight loss goals and the aim these days is basically just maintaining a healthy eating habit, staying fit and hopefully firm up and tone my muscles better.

Hope you are all having a great week guys? thank you all for constantly visiting the blog and leaving all your feedback and comments I truly appreciate it!
