Two Piece

Image
Hello Unique Creating and buying two piece ensembles is one of my recent fashion must have, simply because it’s so economical and versatile; it can be matched together or styled individually for a whole new look. Though I’m partial to styling it separately, but decided to try on this matching set I made recently together. I know most times two piece matchy sets like this are worn to show off the stomach area, but I was going to an event where styling it that way won’t be suitable. You see! The environment helped formed my style and the choices I make when I design or buy clothes. You see this midi-skirt is no longer like this; I transformed it into a pencil skirt because I wanted a pencil skirt with this colour tone, (The advantage of being a creative designer)that’s  the fun part of what I do, I'm able to create and recreate on a whim. I even sometimes deliberately cut out old dress in two just to have a two piece that can be styled separately. Yep! I do this w...

S.N.O.B

Hello unique. I have heard people call me snob on some occasion, and I was starting to believe it, not until I decided to check the actual meaning of snob which states that a snob is “someone who tends to criticize, reject, or ignore people who come from a lower class or have less education. After seeing this meaning I felt so much better because I realize I have never been a snob, mainly because I’m too self absorb to ignore people or care about their social status. I can understand why some people will think I’m a snob, one because most times I don’t even remember the names of people I have met until at least thrice. ( thank God for my friend Ope that helps me keep record of people I talk to for the first time). Most times I’m in my dream world. Two, because I’m more of a listener than a talker; this is  good because it helps me know how people around me think and bad because some people will think I don’t  say much when they are around because I’m  feelin...

Basically basic

Image
Hello Unique. I was having a hard time deciding what to wear the day I wore these outfits; those days when none of your clothes seem to fit properly and you feel disgusted with yourself for feeling bloated and out of shape. Yep these was how I felt that day, I couldn't just decide  to wear a pair of jean and tee, because it was a Sunday morning, which means serious dressing up(I make extra effort on Sundays when it comes to styling)mostly corporate outfits, because I won’t go to my king house dressing like a commoner. Oops! Now this situation made me decide to go basic with these black and white ensemble, black because it’s slimming and this loose fit ones makes you feel comfortably chic, and the white shirt just gives that freshness that I needed to feel; my mood was way under and although white is not slimming the loose fit ones just makes one feel better and refresh. These pumps were my way of adding character to this look, since I’m known for adding colour to my e...

Theme player or Nay?

Hello unique. I’m here trying to decipher how I manage not to post this look from last year. It’s puzzling because I have always seen this look on my system, but subconsciously thought I had already posted it, not until I recently all of a sudden I realized I have not upload this look. Woot! This is actually my thanksgiving outfits; it was a theme outfit for my church choir. We were given materials to make this exact style. I have a love and hate relationship with theme outfits, I love it because it is beautiful when in synchronous, don’t care much for it because everybody’s will be wearing same outfit; you can only stand out without breaking the theme style by making sure yours  fit you perfectly. Though I love Ankara print, I only make them occasionally for celebration, mostly weddings, I hardly wear them casually and when I do I wear it like  This I love to carry big bags whenever I’m wearing a straight fit outfits, black bag this time because of the black...

Lazy Dresser

Image
Hello unique's. Like most women I have my off days when it comes to styling; instances where I don’t feel like wasting a perfectly hardworking outfit on a regular occasion. Of course, it’s not to say I’ll go out looking sloppy on my suppose blogger off duty day. I try to stick to piece that are eye catching (mostly printed top) and has good silhouette, I make little effort like these because I’m a lazy dresser and first impression no matter where you are going matters a lot, you never can tell who’s watching you. I’m one of those people that worry about wasting a perfectly good outfit on a evening stroll or on an ordinary day. If you’re wondering if you are a lazy dresser, check if your wardrobe consists of jeans and varieties of tees trust me this is one of the symptoms of a lazy dresser. Haha. But do not lose sleep over it, like I said above just get vibrant tops and cleave to well tailored pant or skinny jeans(I’m obsessed with the high waist one’s) you can als...

Inspiration lately

Image
Hello unique. Up on till yesterday, I was super busy preparing for and writing school exams, you all know the motif; ‘no study no gain’, main reason I have been MIA. I so miss blogging, nowhere to rant my thoughts and feelings, but if you have been following me on my other social media; facebook and instagram, you will see that I have been  faithfully updating it with my daily looks, inspiration and finds, this was possible because it takes just a few minutes to update there. By now you know I get a lot of inspiration from movies, books and music, though lately I have not been getting  any from music, because songs on circulation these days don’t make any sense; it’s all about hype beat and trash talking. Anyway in the mist of all these trash I found a treasure, yep who says you can find treasure in the mist of trash. The name of this treasure (Song) is called ‘am I wrong’ by Nico & Vinz. Powerful lyrics that I can totally relate with, (you know when I li...
