I've been anticipating this post for ages. Been looking forward to showing y'all my dark side. Lol, indeed! The story behind this dress is long but I'll try to summarize it. My dad actually bought this dress for my mum. Yes! My mum! Can you beat that? He walked into a store in South Korea, saw this fitted dress with a large skull and probably thought 'Hmm, this will look good on my wife'. Lol. Trust my mum to do away with the dress once she saw it (hands up if you know typical Nigerian mums). I was the secondary recipient and I love it. I have worn it so many times but this is the first debut on the blog (round of applause).

Love is in the air, folks! Can you feel it? One of the most romantic things used to depict love is flowers and all things floral. So you can understand why I practically look like I have been dipped in an overflowing river of flowers abi? Let's celebrate this beautiful season of love, shall we?

Hey darlings. I am super obsessed with this outfit I couldn't wait to do a blog post on it. One of my favorite ways to rock a blazer is to wear them with a pair of jeans or leggings and heels. I did so in previous blog posts here and here . I have quite a number of jackets and blazers especially from working a 9-5 job so I like to incorporate them into my everyday look. 

Hey guys! How're y'all doing? This is actually one of my favourite maxi dresses. I LOVE the colour too much. You all know mint green is one of my faves. I also like the fact that the inner lining is quite short so its a bit risque! I wore my denim shirt over the dress and tied it just like a crop top. The entire outfit had a bit of the 90's vibe and I loved it.

I didn't put up a post the whole of last week and I apologize. I was super busy with bouquet orders and planning my sister's Call to Bar party. No vex! I'm back now and I wish you all a Happy New Month. December is here!!!

Hey darlings! I'm still all about promoting Nigerian brands because this recession doesn't seem to be coming to an end in the nearest future. And as if that's not enough, even with the crazy exchange rate, many banks have restricted the use of debit cards to shop on international sites. Well, I'm pretty sure of my bank and its so frustrating.

Hey darlings! I bet your week started off great. The year is almost over and now is the time to meet up with those goals before the year runs out. Its never too late, trust in God and be expectant.

Denim skirts are back! Whoop! I remember when I was a teenager, I had one or two denim skirts that I could wear 4-5 times a week. Yes, they were trending that much back then. And now, they are back in the fashion limelight. The beauty of fashion sha!

I rarely post African prints on the blog so I'm very happy to do so today. If you recall I attended the opening of the new Woodin store in Abuja here and the team gifted me a unique fabric. I promised to have it up on the blog once I'm able to sew something, so here I am.

Hi guys! Its been raining everyday for the last couple of days in Abuja. Its getting a bit annoying. I'm guessing its the season of turtle necks and high-collar outfits so this turtle neck sweater dress comes in handy.

I was going through my old blog posts a few days ago and I realized how far I have grown as a blogger. Things have changed, my style has evolved, photos are better and my content has improved. I love it when people tell me they can relate to my blog and my 'girl next door' style of writing. That has always been my aim.

Hey guys! I don't believe it, we hit 100,000 views on the blog last week. Whoop! That's a pretty good feat to achieve in just almost two years. You all have been amazing, I tell you. Making a girl all emotional and wowed. Thanks for making this possible. Let's make this 1 million, shall we?

Pastel shades are my thing. Mint, blush pink, lavender and the likes. SheIn sent this to me recently and I picked this dress because its versatile. Its perfect if you work in a corporate enviroment or it can pass for a normal Sunday outfit. I decided to pair it with white accessories to bring out the pastel shades more.

Hey my loves. I cannot believe how fast the days are flying by, wasn’t it January a few days ago? Lol. Preparations for one of the most important days of my life are in top gear, I need to catch my breath, SERIOUSLY!  Anyway here is wishing you all an amazing Easter celebration in advance and never forget the reason for the season.

I remember saying sometime on the blog that one of the easiest things I love to wear are maxi dresses. I recently wore this chiffon one to a park and it was one of the items sent to me by NewChic. This post is very laid back and easy and I tried to make the photos as natural as possible. This look is also very appropriate for the beach just incase you are too shy to wear a swimsuit/bikini. Lol.

Top of the morning to you my darlings! Lets just say that the year began well with my mailbox getting flodded with requests from different brands. Of course I only collaborate with brands/websites that potray my personal style. NewChic is definately one of them. Who knew that all the nice affordable stuff are carried by Asian companies?

Hey my honeys! Valentine's Day is around the corner and you all know what that means. Time to play DRESS-UP. The good people at SammyDress reached out to me with a gift card and sent me a couple of lovely stuff. The package got to me in a little over three weeks and it was in good condition though I think they could do better in terms of the actual packaging. Their items are very very very affordable (sorry I had to over-emphasize) and their rep was very friendly to me.

This has to be one of my favourite posts ever. I was going for an all brown 90's look. Dress, shoes, hair and makeup. I think I got this dress when I was in the university for a ridiculously cheap price. Yes, way back (we are talking 2008/2009) but I still love it. Its pretty easy to wear and can be styled up or down. Notice how I matched leopard prints with my shoes and sunnies? And oh, that lip colour! Now, that's what I'm talking about.

Trust in the Lord, be strong and courageous, yes put your hope in the Lord. Psalm 27:14

At times when I'm worried, anxious or confused, the bible verse above gives me peace of mind. I remind myself that anything you put in the hands of God never gets lost. Many people ask how I keep my sanity together especially with the challenges of having a regular 9-5 job, running this blog and currently planning my wedding. All I can say is that the Lord has been our strength, he has continuously shown himself and blesses us with his favour every now and then. My words for you today: Hold on to God and at the nick of time he will show up for you. Apply this to every area of your life and be in for a wonderful surprise.
