Pink

        One lazy morning I was going through the pictures on my phone when I noticed I wasn't over the color pink. I use to like pink when I was a teenager and I'd always thought that as I grew older I'd get over it. I'm older and still not over it, it's such a refreshing color that accentuate a person or thing when worn properly. I'd love to say you can't  go wrong with pink but sadly that's not true, you can go helluva wrong with pink if not done correctly.
       Pink is fun, exciting, youthful and vibrant. It's a color of happiness and gives a boost of confidence. Pink is also perceived as a feminine color but I love a guy who wears pink and personally think it looks sexy (when worn correctly o), it gives me the idea that he is in touch with his feminine side. Good thing pink has many shades, so you can easily pick one that goes with your skin tone and color.
Enjoy a few pictures from my pic library of friends,family,celebs and myself .

GG 2012

       Awards season is here again and I'm so excited. I get to mull about dresses,
and accessories, approve and disapprove, dress them up in my head and all. The
just concluded 69th annual Golden Globe for 2012 left a lot on my plate, my
mind is still in disarray but let's see if can assemble my thoughts and dish on
my observation so far.

Angelina Jolie literally took my breathe away in this dress by Atelier Versace.
Three words for this dress; Elegant, Stylish and Poise. She accessorize with
Brad Pitt who in turn accessorize with a walking cane! Lmao!

Paula Patton looks like sunshine in this bright yellow gown by Monique Lhuillier.
She looks gorgeous and breathe-taking. She accessorize this look with Kwiat
diamond earrings.

Kelly Osbourne looks 'Okay' although it baffles me why anyone would rock a
granny look when you are still young and hot! Maybe she is just living out a fantasy.


Sarah Michelle Gellar in a cobalt and white ruffled gown by Monique Lhuiller.
Ermmmm, too much is going on here, the ruffles at the middle, the color splash. I guess this is what you get when you ask your 2 year old daughter to pick the gown for GG.



Sofia Vergara in custom Vera wang design. I just want to say one thing, with a
body likes hers you can't go wrong in any dress, any dress at all! If anyone could pull a dress like that it would be Sofia.
 Ariel Winter, the modern family actress looks amazing in a ruffled Purple Dolce
and Gabbana cocktail dress. Its great to see Ariel looking all girly in contrast to
her bookish look on screen. The black bow pumps completed the look
perfectly. Did mention that she is just 13! WOW!



Katharine McPhee nailed it with a palette of nude. Imagine yourself wearing nude from head-to-toe and still look amazing. The dress is by Donna Karan. I have just two words; Simple and Elegnant.


Jessica Chastain in high neck white Givenchy gown. She sparkles here thanks to Harry Winston jewelry, pearl and diamond earrings, a diamond feather ring and a vintage diamond bracelet! *sighs* What more can a girl ask for.


Nicole Richie in Slinky Sliver beaded Julien MacDonald gown. She looked Classy and simple,and those gorgeous bangles gave it a nice touch.


Sarah Paulson in a blush-hued-off-shoulder Pamela Rolland evening gown. There is something off about this look, it looks flappy. An off -shoulder gown is some-what difficult to pull off, you need to have that confident pose, but she looks relaxed...ermmm not good. This hue of blush does not go well with her skin and hair color.



Freida pinto in peacock blue strapless silk cloque gown by Prada. She is effortlessly beautiful, like a princess waiting for her prince.

Iconic Ladies in black

                   Iconic Ladies of all times have been known to pull off the color black. They carry themselves gracefully, with such elegance and poise. I have gathered a few pictures of them and i am amazed at how gorgeous they look. Some of these pictures are old and were taken way back but yet they exhibit such awe and character that cannot be mistaken. Audrey Hepburn is one classy lady that would never be forgotten in the history of fashion. This British  actress is a fashion icon that took black to another level, she would forever remain in our hearts.

                     Coco Chanel.....sighs, just the name alone takes my breathe away. She is one of the biggest name in the history of fashion. She would forever live on in our world in so many ways. When i look at her pictures, i see a lady who isn't afraid to be a trend setter, in these pictures  i see a lady who is strong, relevant, unafraid, her demure charm can't be ignored.
       Others include Beyonce Knowles, Michelle Obama, Genevieve Nnaji and Princess Diana have also given another meaning to black dresses. These are women who would forever be remember for their impact to the society and also for being "iconic ladies in black."

Clutches are an absolute MUST for ladies today. When heading for night out with the ladies, or a quiet dinner with the hubby, there is no need to grab a bag, just pick the right clutch to go with your outfit and look fabulous in an effortless way.

RED ALERT!

I'm loving red lips and i decided to share some gorgeous pictures, you too should try it(i mean the ladies o). I'm taking my advice and rocking it too!

Kim K cracking me up!

                                                            
I have been cutting down on my expenses for a while now, in order to save for important things. One of the things i cut down on is magazines, i already have a very big box of them and i reassured myself that since i already have access to the Internet on my blackberry 24/7, why not read the magazines online and save my five thousand Naira every month. So for a couple of months i have stuck to this deal. You all know i love weddings, so imagine my disappointment when Kim K got married and i couldn't buy the magazine to get all the juicy details. I saw the pictures and details online, and saved my favourite pictures from the event on my phone and laptop, but that wasn't enough for me. I just had to have a copy of the magazine on my laps, in my hands and within easy grasp.
    However, i knew that if i broke this one rule for Kim K, i would break for another and another until the rule stops existing. So i decided to exercise discipline and i didn't, i just consoled myself that all this would be over soon and i would buy all the magazines i want.
So imagine my surprise when i went to visit my friend and he had a copy of Kim K wedding exclusive magazine. I was glancing through it and said i would love to have a copy non-chalantly and he replied that i can take it.
Ha! i couldn't get enough of it, after my morning chores i would pick it up, when i have a break at noon i would glance through it and when I'm waiting for sleep at night i would use it to occupy my mind. After two weeks i was slightly satisfied. My cousin Queen wanted to take it home with her one day during her visit and i discouraged her and persuaded her to read it in my house. The next day i was feeling guilty so i gave it to her. The next couple of days i was busy working and i forgot all about it. I had a break and decided to check on twitter, that was  when i saw Ryan Seacrest tweet about Kim K filing for divorce.
Then next day my cousin came to visit and she tossed the magazine at me and said you can have your nonsense back. Immediately we busted into the thrills of laugh, we laughed and laughed and since then (to the time of this writing) i haven't been able to pick up the magazine to stare at those gorgeous pictures. 
P.S  Sadmuch cuz Kim k just wasted those three Vera Wang dresses.......sighs

White and Black ):

White and Black has been around for ages, and its not going any where any time soon. The thing with this color combination is that its  classy and it never fails. Its a classic that never gets old. It exhudes this confidence,and current fashion trends still supports it. Personally,I love it and always look for ways to wear and mix it up. Also I notice it goes with all type of skin tone. So don't forget to throw on black and white once in a while, and rock it like you just don't care.
