NEW VIDEO! CLOSET CONFIDENTIAL TAG - CHIT CHAT!

I missed you guys soooooo much! So first things first. I know you're probably wondering what in the world I've been up to. As I said previously, this is my busiest Summer yet; however, I have found myself writing poems in the form of spoken word recently... I know!

It really helps to lift the weight off my chest. gladly. A lot of them center around my personal struggles (obviously) and society's standards. Is any of you into open mic/spoken word? 

On the note of speaking from the heart, I decided to do the popular 'Closet Confidential Tag' on my YouTube. I had a blast recording it. Step by step I'm getting less awkward in front of the camera and personality is shining through. Haha. Editing and uploading was a nightmare but I'm glad I finally got through with it. :) You can click here to watch it bigger on YouTube.

I hope you guys enjoy. See you soon!

Back to My Roots: Duro Olowu

Some of you many not be aware, but I am a Nigerian by birth. I lived in Nigeria for 12 years, then I moved to Ghana in 2006 and now I am in Canada. Most of you guys have never heard my voice. No, I do not have a Canadian/American accent. I have a mix of Nigerian and Ghanaian accent mostly because of the people in my immediate surroundings. However, most people would say I'm more of a Ghanaian than a Nigerian, but my full name Kikelomo Omolehinwa would, no doubt, tell anyone that I'm 100% Nigerian. Lol.

Blouse: Forever 21 | Shorts: Duro Olowu For JCP | Shoes: GoJane | Bag: Louis Vuitton | Earrings: Ardene | Wristwatch: Avon's Men's Wristwatch

Total Cost: Approx. $61

About the Outfit: I was very pleased to get my hands on this pair of shorts from the Duro Olowu - JCP collection during my trip to the States. Duro Olowu is a Nigerian designer based in London, UK. I found this pair in the clearance rack and I quickly grabbed it because I absolutely love the vibrant print and pattern on it. I'm not really a shorts person; however, when I saw Ms. Sole of Love, Life & Pearls in a similar pair, I knew I wanted one for myself!

Do you currently live in your country/place of birth, or have you moved? And how many times?

Vintage Gold Necklace

Hey you, thanks for reading (not everyone does). How's it going? How gorgeous is this necklace? Ever since it was sent to me by eFoxcity (affordable and fashionable clothing and accessories), I've been wearing it almost every single day! I mean... it goes with almost anything, and it's very lightweight so it's not my fault. :p     I love it so much!

However, after wearing it a couple of times, I noticed the golden color on the chain started to fade off. I know it's not an actual Gold necklace, but I was a bit disappointed by how quickly it lost its color. Other than this, it's perfect! When I put it on now, I make sure the neckline of my blouse/dress covers the chain, then I'm good to go.

What do you think? Would you buy a piece of jewellery even tough you knew it would start to fade/wash off eventually?

New Month, New Obsessions

1. Gold-tone metal octagonal clutch by Kotur. Many of you already know I love gold; apart from that, this clutch is so unique which makes it one of those statement pieces a girl's gotta have! Get it here

 

2. I must say, it was very difficult narrowing down my obsessions for the week to ten! This boot is effortlessly chic, and the gold zipper just adds a lot of spice to it! I also think it is very versatile. Get it here

3.I'm really loving this Black leather Rockstud Ankle Boots by Valentino!!! Why not? It's bad - black, leather and studded.  This might be a little too much for some people, but remember keeping a versatile closet can be very profitable! Get it here

4.  Sometimes, you just want to look sophisticated and I think this would be perfect for that (considering the current freezing weather). It's Knee-high with an almond toe and suede by Micheal Kors. Get it here

5. This Dolce and Gabbana handbag is just gorgeous. It proves a black bag doesn't have to be boring! It's brocade (which is in style right now) and velvet, plus the gold chains give it an extra edge! I LOVE it! Get it here

6.  This Geo Print pants from ASOS were made for comfort - stretch fabric! Print bottoms are very trendy right now, and this is more conservative and versatile because it's not too loud like many other print bottoms! Get it here

7. I thought these earrings were cute, unique and gorgeous! Get it here from Topshop.

8. This dress is the definition of classy, elegant and sexy! I really like the antique-inspired lace and sequins! You can bring sexy without showing off too much skin, you know! ;) Get it here

9. I actually found this, this morning, and I love it! I just couldn't wait to place it in next week's list, so I decided to squeeze it in here! It's called 'Taste Sandal' - hmmm I wonder why. Anyhoo, this sandal is pure architecture! Agreed? Get it here

10. Last but definitely not least, is this ASOS Pleat Swing Front Coat. I have a thing for swing coats - if it isn't already obvious. Get it here

It's a new month, you might as well add something new to your closet! :)

Which items are your favorites? Can you guess mine? 

Enjoy the rest of your week, and thanks for stopping by. Don't forget to check back next Wednesday for next week's list! :)
