Bows, bows, bows

Every little girl wants a bow on their hair, outfits, socks...you name it, or their belts tied like a bow. I remember as a little girl, I will always insist that my mom tie the belt of my puffy dresses into a bow. I will always make sure the bow was perfect with equal lengths :). Recently, when I noticed a lot of bows surfacing on runways and in stores, I became an excited kid hehehe...am loving it!

Light Denim

I forgot about this dress for months now. I received it as gift last year but never wore it. Finally stumbled into it today and decided to put a twist to it with my never ending addiction to v-neck tops. Again, another reason for wearing the top was because the top part of the dress is too big--same story regarding the belt.

Am trying to post some fall items but still trying to figure out how to make clipboards. if i don't in a day or two, I will go ahead and post it as individual pictures. Anyone who can help?

JURY DUTY

Yesterday was my first jury duty. It felt kinda weird because I didn't know what to expect. It was one long boring day because I didn't get to participate in any juror activities; instead, I sat down in a room watching movies and feeling so sleepy from 8:30am to 0400pm. Such a long day--felt so tired doing nothing.



After my duty...different twist to the vest

My Country...Nigeria

Today I am inviting you all to a piece of me. Apart from being a twenty something year old fashion obessesed girl; living in a state where there is little fashion around. My life started in the continent of Africa; precisely, West Africa Nigeria--where I was born and raised before moving to America in my early teens . A lot of people that I have met don't really know much about Africa except what the media portrays: poverty, crime, diseases... to name a few. I have never watched any TV documentation that actually sheds light on the good things about Africa. I have decided to tell you about my country Nigeria. Nigeria brought one of the best-known writers, the first African Noble prize winner in Literature Wole Soyinka and Chinua Achebe know for the novel “Things Fall Apart”. Nigerian music includes different kinds of music from folk, Fuji, to hip hop. Some famous and budding artists from Nigeria are Fela Kuti, Femi Kuti, Sade Aduand (better known as Sade), Psquare, TuFace Idibia, 9ice and many more. Nigeria is also the 4th leading gas exporter to America. Here are a few pictures to enjoy
