True Style

Hi ladies, I hope you are all well. Today, I want to present to you a very talented young lad by the name of Adeleke Sijuwade, a Nigerian designer who is making waves in the Fashion world. Pieces that have been worn by celebrities the likes of Keisha Cole, Tyra Banks and many others must be worthy of noting. And I am always one to share the love of African inspired fashion. Ladies... I present Adeleke

Frills

Pant suit

That's how it would look... I love

My favourite fashionista Latisha, showing how it's done. I love this woman, she inspires me to follow my dreams. Hey, accent with a belt ladies and give a flowing dress that extra ump

Cute little number, I could totally wear

Yes that's miss coles showing off the perfect Africa

The Fashion Bomb herself... embracing Adeleke's Africa

And here at last the Man with an eye for style. I love a man who can dress me good as well as himself. mmh!

For the things we love and those who we lost

I came across this advert that Michelle Williams shot for 'until there's a cure campaign' and I love the bracelets that make a difference in our lives! Until there's a cure many will die, until there's a cure we should continue the fight, until there's a cure... until!

And for the things we love I just fell in love with these shoes. Pure perfection!

Hey ladies, so I am feeling a bit better today after a day of being poorly! I thought, why not cheer myself up with a little fashion here and a little fashion there. So here it is

Black and red... what could go wrong!

Neon colours ladies... make that finishing touch one of a kind

Yes, I must have some white tee somewhere

Did I forget to tell you all the full mini skirts so in, well yeah they are I got me one, have you?

Elegance and sexy combined

So, I hope you've had a lovely loooong weekend. I've enjoyed it, swam a lot, relaxed a lot and loved a lot (but that's a different story). Anyway, there are some ladies that seem to not be able to quite clasp the idea of elegance and sexy being combined. One example only comes to mind...

Just had to share

"Worrying does not empty tomorrow of its trouble,

It empties today of its strength."

It's just one of those days

Today is one of those days where I am dressed as I feel. I woke up with a hung over, problem is, I don't drink. And it's not going away... that light headed feeling that makes you want to go back to bed. However, my heart feels like dressing up so if I could be bothered I would do any of these:

Oh hail the outfitted queen... love the jeans and bag

Miss Ross... always one to look demure

Basic white... love those trouses

Total knockout... it's almost like you couldn't be bothered but it worked anyway.

In The words of Miss Hepburn

In true spirit of the very long weekend! One must leave n fashion... so for those who celebrate Easter, Happy Easter and for those who don't, Happy Holidays! Here is a little something from the number 1 lady in Fashion Ms. Audrey Hepburn:

For attractive lips, speak words of kindness. For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people. For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry. For beautiful hair, let a child run his/her fingers through it once a day. For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone. People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed; never throw out anyone. Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you will find one at the end of each of your arms. As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands; one for helping yourself, and the other for helping others.

The Crazy thing called fashion

Some are fashion setters,

some are followers,

whichever one you are just make sure your style whether set for others to follow or following another, it must define you!

I love Naomi the Catwalk Super Model... she is still the ultimate it for me in Super Models haven. Too bad Naomi the person will never be my favourite.

Bey looking casual and so ordinary chic

Those long legs of Miss Campbell, and the poise is just fantastic... she makes everything she puts on the Catwalk look glamourous. On the other hand I love what Taraji is wearing she is becoming a woman of her own and recognising her style. I love it, Power to my Ladies

Catwalk trend, three quarter trousers... love the combination of colours

No it's not Lady Gaga nor is it Paris Hilton... no no no It's Nicole Richie on Black Book. I love it she looks fierce channeling lady Gaga

Pucks of the Weekend

Top Shop

Want a funky, vintage, fun and young shop... Top shop is your place! I know for me and my lil sis it is, however I am more of a boutique girl cuz of the one piece factor. I sometimes do high street and designer. I love Top Shop's image the way that it's shops are displayed visually represent what it is, young, chic, street funky, vintage and young!
