Western Fashion Meets Ankara.

Hello!!! Happy Friday!! How's your day going?

Color is one of the key factors that influences and inspires my outfits. I love colors and I use them however I want. I don't try to follow most rules... I just do! God bless whoever instituted color block :)



I brought back with me from Ghana, some African print (commonly referred to as Ankara in Nigeria) accessories like:clutches, bangles, earrings and necklaces.  This outfit was one of the results of my brainstorming on what to wear with the accessories. I ended up wearing this to church some weeks ago.

Blouse: Dynamite | Skirt: Urban behavior | Shoes: Urban planet | Earrings, Clutch, Bangle and Necklace: Ghana. (I have some for sale)


Total outfit cost: $50.5 

What I like about this outfit most is, the clutch followed by the blouse. The stripes in front are bigger than the ones behind.

DIY: Inspired by Wildfox Couture



I think this is a very creative and practical DIY. Add a little extra something to your jumpers, sweaters or cardigans! I will definitely try this out - after I'm done with my midterms that is! :)

Once a Week Chic



Hey there!

So, I discovered this new Fab website called Once A Week Chic. Basically, the website showcases one look each week. This look is made up of trendy, stylish and affordable pieces. The single pieces that come together to form the look are then sold either together as the whole look or alone (piece by piece).

The Fab thing is, you can buy a complete look each week, for just $194. This includes, accessories, bottoms, tops and shoes; so everything basically from head to toe!! Also, they are US-based but ship worldwide for only $9.95!

Although the looks change each week, you can still view previous featured looks but, only shop for the current look! (If the previous look is not sold out, you can still shop for it!)

I think it's a pretty cool idea and yes, I would recommend it to a friend. :)

Head to Once A Week Chic right now, to view and shop this week's look before it sells out! :)
