80's Bridal Shower

Hi guys these are the pictures from the bridal shower i planned in December for my bestie isioma, i promised to post them ages ago really sorry about that.
Anyhoo the theme was 80's grunge and to my surprise everyone really got into it and came dressed appropriately!

decided to be innovative and have a candy stand as opposed to a cupcake stand

Nurah! she had to leave early tho.

 Lade, i loved her take on the whole 80's thing, and don't get me started on her waistline. i really need to take my crunches more seriously

 i was kinda like a punk cindy lauper typa 80's girl as opposed to the Madonna look we had all decided on.

 The bride issey!!! you can see her rocker jacket and purse

 ike did hers with a jerry curl like weave and a cropped top.

 It's kelly baybay! i think kelz was the only one that really hit the grunge look on the head

Zmama! posing with my disco curtain which i was sooo proud of. Set it up myself n shiii

 not really sure what kelz was drinking here *cough* anyway don't you just love her dark lipstick?

 This was after we just finished a rigorous round of musical chairs, which kelz won i might add. (bum bum power)

 yea i made all the guests play freeze, musical chairs and all those other games from when we where kids.

  kelzibob!

Part 2. All dressed and ready for the second part of the night. we went out and had a fabulously merry time!
*I apologize for the poor picture quality.

THE END.

Beaded Blazer

This is what i wore to church on the first Sunday of the year. Uchechi was so nice to me and gifted me this  Chechi Arinze blazer. Paired it with my mum's bag and favourite pair of shoes from Zara. I'm back in London now :( it's so cold. No suya, no 'The Place' coconut rice and asun (peppered goat meat), no Ebeano sharwama, how shall one survive?

Kelechi's 'Whats in my bag'

Hi guys! sorry for the break. I am now back in Lagos to spend Christmas with my family. I left days before school closed so i had to rush my essays before leaving, speed shop and pack for Nigeria. Got to Lagos ready to blog, THE HEAT!! Like i don't even get it, it wasn't like this last year. To top it off i got an instant cold and i've been plagued with it for a week now. I didn't want to abandon the blog for too long so i decided to take a cue from my favourite youtubers and do a 'whats in my bag post'. An outfit post is totally out of the question as i am covered in mentholated dusting powder as I type because of heat rash. I loved this bag from the moment my mum bought it. Now many, many many years later she finally let me rock it. Cerrutti isn't popular in Lagos so people can't be like "OMG that bag is like soooo 10 years ago" (in annoying cool FM presenters' accent. u know now, that annoying 'I just got back from the states' accent)

I never really have much to put in my bag when I'm in Lagos, because I don't drive, work or school here. Most of them are just girlie things I can actually do without but that I've convinced myself I need.

Body Shop Lip Butter I love the body-shop's Chocomania collection. smells so yummy.

Boots almond body butter For moisturising on the go, as I have very dry skin and can't carry my big bottle of coco butter with me.

Lolita Lempika perfume Stole this from my mama. Love it. I'm usually a daisy by Marc Jacobs girl, but I've run out.

Dental Floss I never plan for  eBar's nkwobi. One must always be prepared.

Miss sporty lipstick in Malaga For touch ups. I don't have any other miss sporty thing, and i don't even think of them to be perfectly honest but I love this shade and it smells divine. Best lipstick scent of all time. 

Chanel eyeshadow set I use this as a mirror when I'm out. Hi look at me, I have a Chanel mirror, I'm fancy! ;)

Ted Baker Wallet Got this as a birthday present. Love.

Blackberry Charger My blackberry's battery is wack. enough said.

Oyster card and University ID Even though I don't need these in Lagos, I carry them about.

Blackberry Torch, iPod touch and iPhone5 My phones are obviously for communication; bbm, twitter, instagram etc and I'm always listening to music to ward off random people. They just like to talk to me for some reason. (iPhone not in photo because I was using it to take the pictures)

James Patterson's The 5th Horseman Haven't started yet but I adore James Patterson and I never know when I might have to wait for somebody or get stuck in 3hr Ozumba traffic.

Sunday Funday: At the National Army Museum.

Since we couldn't make it last Sunday, we decided  to go see the National Army Museum yesterday. It was absolutely freezing yesterday! The sun earlier in the day tricked me into thinking it would be another warm Sunday, so I decided to  throw on an outfit that was you know, not winter appropriate, got outside BOOOM! Antarctica. i couldn't even feel my fingers by the time i had walked to the station. Anyway we went to see the war horse exhibition. Quite interesting, definitely want to see the movie now as I wasn't interested in it, at the time it was showing in the cinemas.

I'm loving this new Sunday tradition I've started of going somewhere different and new.

they had crayons and cutouts of horses for kids to colour in and stick on the wall. Being a big kid I joined in. marlene was so not amused. lol

i found this funny, "by George age 10 from Chelsea. Not my best drawing =)"

apparently this is the skeleton of Napoleon's favourite horse, Marengo.

Shopping tip for short skirts; Try sitting with it on in the dressing room. This skirt made so much sense in the dressing room, but when I sit down in it goes up, way up and I can't tug it down easily because it isn't lycra or jersey. Another thing,  I'm strolling down the road, I look down and the side seam has moved to the front. Le worst.

No liquid or powder foundation just moisturiser, haven't worn any since september and my skin is rewarding me for it. 

@sloane square. getting so excited for christmas!

Halloween

I decided I was looking too pretty and not scarey enough. So I slapped on some white face paint. 

Put on my feather necklace that Uchechi gave me last year. Swans, birds, feathers . . . It's all in the details. :D

Geisha and Wednesday Adams.

errr Kelz, black swan doesn't have claws . . .

The shame . . .

Thats more like it!

My friend Seun had an awesome Halloween Party at her flat. Flat party of life! I decided to go as the black swan simply because being Igbo, I wasn't about to buy a costume for just one night. So I painted my face and viola! black swan. Loads of cool outfits and laughs. Haven't had that much fun at a house party in a while.  What did you do for halloween?
