MUD & MINT

Hello Lovelies, its the middle of the week, which simply means we are getting closer to our aims and goals and the end of the year.

Just thought to share pictures of my current hairdo; I don't know what its called, but I call it Bororo hairstyle. My regular readers know how much I love experimenting with my hair. Anyway sha, I walked up to a neighbourhood hair salon and asked her to make this for me.

STATEMENT OF FACT

Hello Lovelies, it's a new week, the year is running to an end and there is the urge/rush to still make the year count. Many of us are still waiting for that big job, the long awaited proposal from him/her, that deal that will bring about the money to acquire that solar powered car, that awesome feeling of knowing we belong to someone special, and the list goes on.

While in the waiting room, it is necessary to look and act the part of that hardworking employee, perfect fiancee/fiance, cool person driving the cooler car or best partner ever. And in looking the part, simplicity and humility, slightly laced with some sense of style is key.

Which is why I want to introduce you to my silent but powerful friends; statement jewellery and accessories. They are the ones that give you that umph and command a second, third, well, even a fourth glance. You know how you leave the house knowing you will slay through out the day, and then someone compliments your outfit and you act all surprised like you didn't know you looked so good? Yeah, we all know the feeling.

I have done some looking around and I found a few statement accessories that drew me in and as usual, I thought to share.

FRIDAY FASHTITUDE : SHOE PORN

Hello Lovelies, hope you had a great week? The weekend is here, and what better way to celebrate the weekend than to engage in some healthy dose of shoe porn? I don't know about you, but I love me some shoessss, and I don't mind just staring at the pictures all day.

EXPRESS YOURSELF

Hello Lovelies, week going well so far I hope?

While I'm not a fan of labels being plastered all over clothes or accessories, especially when they are knock offs, a little dose of slogan or catchy phrases doesn't rub me the wrong way. 

  

PINK STAR UP FOR GRABS!

MyUS.com NDANI US SHOPPING

Well, I have some good news to share; all that can become history as Ndani, through Guaranty Trust Bank has found a solution to all your US shipping woes.

SUNDAY OUTFIT INSPIRATION

I put this look together, seeing as tomorrow is Sunday, and a little inspiration might be needed to help someone out there. 

I chose this dress because  it's simple yet very classy without being inappropriate. Would have been fantastic for work because of its colour, but I think the bow makes it a little too dressy. 

DIY : BLACK TIPPED PUMPS

Hello lovelies, how's the weekend coming along? 

I decided to try my hand on a few DIY projects, one of which I want to share today.

This pair of shoes caught my fancy the day I got it, but I discovered I rarely wear it, and I think its cos of lack of care use, my precious shoe started falling part (to my total dismay). Hence the resolve to have a little facelift done for my pretty beauty.
