Lace.Midi.Vintage.

Hey Guys!!!

Happy new year to y'all. Hope you guys had a good holiday season.

Well 2013 is here and its time to set the tone for the year, in every aspect of life and with God on our side plus hardwork, testimonies are on the way!

I wore this beaut! dress gifted to me for my birthday last year, to an engagement party last weekend. Loved the style, length, fit, everything, i guess that's the reason its mine lol!

I hate people in my background but these pictures were taken in a hurry so bear with me....

There was a vintage meet at this point haha!

It was more of a concert than an engagement, Lagos people tho!

Have a nice evening

PS: i started wearing spectacles.....

I Love Vintage, a lil' too much!

Hey People, happy wednesday to you : )

Anyone who knows me personally, probably knows my love for vintage pieces knows no bounds. I love thrifted stuff, while in school i had myself walk into stores off the high street looking for something different, something not trendy, something old!

I intend to sell vintage stuff on the blog at some point, so the love can go round. Interestingly, Nigerians are beginning to love vintage as well and a few people have started lines and stores dedicated to vintage stuff alone.

An easier way to acquire such amazing stuff is from the parents and this was the case with this blouse. My mum gave me this red polka dot blouse a few months ago and i fell in love with it instantly. The colour, the fit, the look....everything i want in a vintage blouse. I paired it with an equally vintage midi skirt to tie both together and achieve a look as 60's as possible lol!

I kept my accesories in the today hence the python skin effect collar and skinny black belt.....

The thing about vintage pieces is you have to be able to pull it off to avoid looking off lol! I know some very fashionable women who have vowed not to go that route at all but hey, live a little.....step of out of your bodycon zone and try a frumpy dress, a beautiful woman will always be a beautiful woman : 0 )

"Classic pieces never go out of vogue"

Ipod playing- i just wonder, do you ever, think of me, anymore, do you.... Neyo!

Lovely song, unfortunately no one sings stuff like that anymore : (

Before i forget, a special thanks to my beau for werking on these photos !

ROAR!!! Leopards in Jumpsuits

Aloha folks,

Hope the week has been good so far! i recently went to the jungle and guess what, Leopards had jumpsuits on! Yup....not kidding!

Okay, maybe a little....*now looking away*

Animal Prints have been in trend from last year as we saw a lot on celebs like the kardashian sisters, Sarah Jessica Parker, the Olsen sisters and many more!


They are dramatic therefore always cause a stir when worn, but are definitely beautiful. I got a good bargain at my friends store, of a casual Persian leopard print jumpsuit and wore it to lunch with the boo

Jumpsuit- Be Beau

there's something about animal print that just makes you feel jungle...lol 

Ring- Greece local market; Sport watch/ Bangles- Next; Purse- Ghana local market

Neckpiece- Oasis

   

i am looking unto the hills, from whence cometh my help!

i had these gorge police sunglasses on at some point, you can shop various styles on their website

i like this purse because of the color and style, very vintage

Rubber flats- Dollhouse; see my post on rubber flats here

Jumpsuits i love because they accentuate the curves of a woman (if she has any lol) and makes her look mature.

Jumpsuits also hide the extra baggage like a pot belly and what not....that is not to say you shouldn't keep your body banging oooo!

i have been in a lot of print stuff lately- jewellery, shoes, clothes, you have seen some and should see more.

Its funny because i never rocked them when they were trending 100%; i hate to follow trends!
   
By the way, i hooked on to bloglovin and lookbook.nu today!

I'm really getting serious about this blog this year lol!  i'd finish the process soon enough so you can enjoy my posts via both amazing conduits

i have to go....i'm literally dozing!
