When orange is the new black hit our screens about two year ago, we wouldn’t have thought it will last long. Because of the hit US-series, the orange jumpsuit became popular.
MINIMALISM
There’s this popular saying that when life throws lemon at you that you should make lemonade. This was the case of a couple over the weekend. They decided to make lemonade out of the lemon Nature threw at them.
In case you don’t know, there was a heavy down pour of snow in some part of the US for some days. While a lot of people stayed in doors, the couple decided to do their pre-wedding shots in the snow.

Shopping For Your Prom Dress The Easy Way

How Tomboys Can Dress For Prom
It’s always a little shocking seeing a girl at prom dressed in a suit or pants instead of a dress, but why shouldn’t they? Tomboy-chic always lands up on the best-dressed lists. While it may take some confidence to pull off, there’s no doubt you can garner many compliments. However, finding formal prom dresses that…
WINTER WHITE
If possible, I would wear white everyday!
That may sound impossible to some but to me, white is always my go to whether dressed up like my look today or dressed down.
Not only does it work magic on my kind of skin but white generally attracts light to the face or illuminates the face. When the face is illuminated, you look fresh, youthful and awake.
KHAKI & BLACK
When it comes to day time or work outfit, I always look for a ways to “jazz up” or “spice up” my look. I look for statement blouses with ruffles, frills or some kinds of details. And when it comes to skirts, I look for skirts with peek-a- boo details like the pleat on my skirt today.
GOOD SKIN :::: THE 3 STEPS SKIN CARE SYSTEM (cleanse, exfoliate & moisturise)
I am very passionate about good skin and good skin care products. When you have “good skin” (healthy, clean and & clear) you will not necessarily need to wear make up daily. When you don’t wear make up daily, your skin get’s the chance to breathe. Wearing make up daily clogs up your pores.
Many wear so much make up daily because they have something to cover or hide under the make up.
BASICS ON REPLAY
On my last look here, I shared everything you need to know about basics, wardrobe essentials and why wardrobe essentials or wardrobe staples are easy and reliable all season.
My look today is an example of basics on replay!
Basics on reply as in I was wearing the same pieces in both looks and on a different day…..
BASICS ON CASUAL FRIDAY
You can never go wrong with pairing basics. On a day when you don’t know what to wear and no matter what the season is, turn to basics, they never let you down.
What is Basics ?
Basics are wardrobe staples or essential pieces in a functional wardrobe.
Some of the things I consider basics and I highly recommend that every one should have at least one of each in their closets include a denim, a classic white button down shirt, a black pair of pumps;low or high, a structured blazer and many more basics which you can see in my wardrobe essentials or wardrobe staple here.
COMPLIMENTARY COLOURS :::: PURPLE SKATER & YELLOW HIGH NECK BLOUSE
In my last post, I started the Basic Colour Theory and my look book featured both Analogous colours and Complementary colours. Please read more on that post.
Today, I decided to focus on just complementary colours.
ANALOGOUS COLOURS ::: YELLOW SKATER & BELL SLEEVE BLOUSE
Colour for me sets an ambience of elegance, warmth and tranquility. I also gravitate towards colour when I want to feel very youthful and playful.
Colours make my mood light, lifted and they make me feel confident. Depending on the colour, I feel very sexy when wearing bold colours like the one I wore on New Year’s eve.
HAPPY NEW YEAR ::: It’s the New Year, NOW LET GO !

Give yourself a pat on the back for all you were able to do or achieve, forgive yourself for the mistakes you made and do everything possible not to dwell in your past.

MEMORIES & LILAC LOVE | MONO STRAP DRESS & SACCO HEELS
Memories they say last forever especially the good ones. Some of such memories are the pieces I have on in this post. It was when I had Daniel, my first son that I got this dress I have on and it was when I had Sammy, my second son that I got the pair of heels I have on and I have had them since then.
How long you may ask? It is been 9 long years for the heels and 11 long years for the dress. Too long right? Because I cherish the memories this these two pieces bring, I will be keeping them forever please God.
OPPORTUNITIES & HARD WORK | MILITARY STYLE COAT & TAN BOOTIES
A statement coat is one of my favourite things to wear in the winter. I love coats not only because they keep me warm but because most times in winter, our clothes / outfits are buried under our coats when outdoors.
In my humble opinion, wearing statement coats is one of the ways to feel chic and stylish in the winter or colder months.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS | ALL BLACK & SILVER
It is my last day of work before Christmas and honestly if I could have my way I would have been finished by now. All the same, we have to do what we have to do. I know in my mind that it was going to be a short but busy day with last minute rush of shoppers & travellers trying to get home to be with their loved ones. I also had in my mind that there was going to be so much traffic.
On short but busy days like this, I love to spot an all black ensemble. Not only does it flatter the body or make you look slimmer, it is perfect for days when you want to feel like you didn’t try but look well put together.
Every other thing you need to know about black and wearing an all black ensemble and so many different look books can be found here.
