How do you wear your shirt?
For years now, I have bought all different types of shirts. My wardrobe is filled with shirts with frills, shirts with lace. I have silk shirts, stripes YES, polka dots YES. They are a MUST-HAVE. I love wearing mine with a pair of jeans and with skirts. They look fabulous with trousers. I AM SCREAMING THIS NOW, THEY ARE VERSATILE.
I had a lunch date with my friend on Saturday and of course I persuaded her to eat Italian.
This is the sexiest colour ever. If i had an island, this would be the colour of the ocean
Vintage shirt
Skirt is from American Apparel
It would get windy so I had to cross my arms because I was looking like a green parachute.
The money shot.. Christian Lacroix vintage sunglasses
Sandals are from Kurt Keiger. They are so comfortable. A MUST-HAVE in a woman's wardrobe.
My money maker..my legs.
There was a time when I couldn't wear trousers out to a bar/club. I saw it as an abomination. The 1st time I wore trousers to a bar, I think I was 22. That's when I knew I was getting old.
The evening arrives and I get a phone call, Tope meet me for drinks. You are already out and you are thinking how do I dress up my outfit? How do I transform this daytime look to a night a time sexy look.
Listen carefully because this will go really quickly.
- If you can change your lipstick colour to a more night time colour. ADD MORE COLOUR TO YOUR LIPS.
Let your hair down.
Tuck in your shirt. Pull up your skirt a little, so your waistline is emphasized.
VIOLA!!!! You are good to go
Sunday and it's church day. One thing I am finding difficult at the moment is the fact that most of my clothes and shoes are in another continent and I honestly only have 3 suitcases of wearable clothes and shoes here.
One of my greatest fears is I dream of an outfit like most women do(smiling), I wake up and realize an item perhaps my shoes are somewhere else.. I can't even finish this sentence.
Denim shirt worn with Chinos from Zara(6years old).
Miu Miu suede pumps
Vintage brooch bought from a market. I bought this when I decided to move back to Nigeria. Long live the Queen.
Let me be real, I can not wear heels during the day time for a long period. I HAVE TO CHANGE into comfortable flats. These espadrilles are from Primark.
One of my favourite things, THE INTER-CHANGEABLE FACE STRAP watch. When I was younger, i had this pretty suede box and in the box, there was about 8 different coloured straps and different faces for my watch. Quite a few of my friends had it too. It was the IN thing like pop swatch.
Anyways that was a long blog. Till the next time, stay blessed. my peoples PLEASE leave comments so I know what you think.. xxx

Hi, Topstar! Here is a man from Finland. I approach to you for a little story. I like both of your outfits. About outfits: Your night look is sexy and stylish. I like that denim shirt. In my opinion: That shirt looks like a safari shirt( chest pockets and epaulets). Denim shirt and safari shirt are that kind of shirts, which I like very much. Now I go to the bedroom, because I'm tired. Before that I wish that autumn will bring all good things to you...
