Goodbye heart break...

    Hey hey... Hope everyone is doing great, i haven't posted in ages....haven't been having the best of weeks. I am going Lagos, tomorrow on the first bus, cant wait to see my mum,brothers and my little baby favor, Been home sick all week, also been missing some1 who was really special to me. Loneliness and Boredom is a combination that makes a young girl think and as such memories start to flow. Some good and others bad... well sometimes love hurts and sometimes it makes you smile. 

   Thank God, i am leaving Ilorin for some days, leaving behind the bad memories... and saying hello to old friends. Looking forward to meeting up with some friends in Lagos, and making new 'GOOD' memories... till next time XOXO........

Cheap and stylish


    Hey Dolls... hope you all had a lovely weekend, as promised, i said for one week my post will be about other people's styles. Hope you liked the one on my Lovely friend, Alinko..... today's style queen is Magigain. She is a 6ft:1'' model and a law student. Magics is very bubbly and friendly and i will describe her style as effortless and yet still stylish. She has entered into a couple of modelling competition, last year she was a finalist in the Top model of Colour and she came 10th. (Drum rolls for her please)

     As a tall Lady,who has curves its very hard to find your size and fit, and most tall people just throw on anything because of the stress of finding the perfect fit. Magics is a example of a Giant with style. :). Her Favorite shops are Asos, Newlook, Primark and Dorothy perkins. Magics states that 'the key to finding your size and what fits well as a tall girl is patience, I love to shop a lot just like any other girl , sometimes i find it difficult to find my size, but i exercise patience and check from rack to rack,till i find what fits best'. She also states that ' most tall people have to spend more money on clothes, very few shops cater for tall people, that is  why Dorothy Perkins, Topshop and Newlook (but they have stopped selling in stores and only sell online) are my favorite shops. You do not have to spend your life earning to buy from them and you can look chic and stylish in their clothes just like my midget friend dupe'. (that is me she insulting..lol).... 'I do believe in big labels and spending a fortune on clothes, shoes and bags... I believe a true fashionista, can rock Primark and look like Grace Kelly or Audrey Hepburn of Breakffast @ Tiffany's '.

Congratulations to my friends in the UK.... Its finally summer...lol....... Over the past two weeks my friends in the UK have been complaining about, how its been raining non- stop, while i was in Nigeria soaking up all the vitamin D God  blessed us with.. *sticking my tongue out*

Now that the sun is out, Do not only make a statement with your short, mini skirts and maxi dresses ... let your hair shine (replacing SUN with HAIR while singing Labrinth's let the sun shine)..... I pride myself as someone who knows a lot about hair and especially Afro- Caribbean Hair. (I think my customers and friends will back me up on that)... pride things.....  :) Just going to share a few hairstyles off the runway, that are really hot this summer and are statement makers.. Enjoy... :)

How to spot fake Christian Louboutin

Hey dolls... wanted to share a quick one with yall. I am one person that prides myself in buying original things. I do not own a lot of designer items, but the few i own are all ORIGINAL.I make sure they are, by checking different details and making sure i buy from shops like Selfridges, House of fraser or
Bicester village, and if i am buying online i check other buyers tips on spotting the original . Some people buy fake not because they want to, but because the seller sold them fake. The link below gives details of how to spot a fake CL boot or shoe..

Hi everyone... so sorry i haven't posted anything for almost a week been so busy ... How have you guys been? Missed me? Sure you did... lol......

I decided that for one week, my post will be about other people and their style... Today's post is about Alinko, a very good friend of mine, his style is very laid back, effortless and yet still fashionable. I do not have many pictures of him, but i took this one off his blackberry display picture, because i felt it was very simple and yet dope..To top it all he did the denim on denim clash which is super dope and reminds me of the 80's and 90's so RETRO!!!.. Hope u agree with me on that?.... 

P.S Alinko runs an online shop where he sells female shoes and make up (M.A.C lipsticks, foundation,eye pencils et cetera). Cant remember the website but you can check their facebook page @ facebook.com/safyrelle and twitter@safyrelle.  He runs the company with his girlfriend and they are both darlings, so they will help you with whatever it is your looking for :)
