LOUIS LEEMAN SHOES!!!

I am such a shoe addict though. A friend of mine calls me "shoe-holic". I absolutely love all shoes by Tom ford, Kurt Geiger, Louis Vuitton, Gucci and a few others. Hey! This doesn't mean i joke with my Zara's and co though. But when i came across these shoes by Louis Leeman i had  goose bombs all over my body. I totally love how well- made they are with modern shapes and embellishments. Like seriously,how can a guy not love these shoes? Men shoes have never been this chic and trendy. I am on a lookout for these shoes and i have my favorite there by the way... And the outfit is just waiting patiently. Wouldn't a retailer be stupid not to stock these shoes if he/she ever sighted them?
Now savor in this gorgeous Platter...

TWO EVENTS IN ONE DAY

On the 5th of Febuary when i got an invite for City people magazine fashion and style awards, i was a bit confused as to what event i'll attend because the comedian Julius Agwu had previously notified me about the Festival of love event he's having on Febuary 13th which is on the same day with the fashion and style awards.

So when i was getting ready,i needed an outfit that will fit both event and of course make me turn heads [every fashionista loves this sincerely]. 

So i opted for a red pants made for me by a Nigerian designer called Koje[who by the way made me 5 pants which i'll be rocking a few others during the Arise magazine fashion week]. Once i picked up the red pant every other thing just fell in place and this was the out come. 

I got to Balmoral hall where city people held their awards i went straight to seat with my friend Yvonne Vixen for about an hour and after she picked up her award,we left for Muson center where Julius Agwu was having his show. My battery died and no camera was in sight so i got only these two pictures from one of my favorites proudly African online mags www.bellanaija.com. 

So,just in case you see me pictured in this outfit at two different gigs,i have just explained o! Lol!!!

Pants by Koje,White shirt by Balenciaga,Blazer by Zara,belt by Louis Vuitton and my shoes by Valentino-i love how my yellow socks popped by the way. Lol!

POWER DRESSERS
My friend Victoria Beckham is such a powerful dresser any day. She has a way of making a very strong ensemble look very chic and subtle. Here's how she looked at the vanity Fair after Oscar party. This dress was from her S/S 2012 collection.
By the way, is it just me or does any other person notice that only my friend Victoria pulls off her outfit better than her models who showcase these outfits?
Just see how she used this Valentino skinny belt to make this floor length number more amazing and stunning. And did you notice the green diamond on her finger? Surely one of vickie's favorite accessories.

Victoria Beckham

Power Couple-David and Victoria Beckham[i think they are one of the worlds most fashionable celebrity couple]

On the other hand, J.Lo is another bombshell for me whom E! once called the most beautiful and desired woman in the world. I don't see how jumping from one relationship to another makes one hotter but J.Lo is making thousands of people believe that. Asides her very curvaceous body and pretty face J.Lo has made some very banging appearances on the red carpet but this look at Vanity Fair's after Oscar party was yummy!

I totally love the neckline,colour and sequined fabric

Curvaceous J.Lo who never fails to show off the backside.

J.Lo and her 24years old new beau.

I pity for this boy by the time J.Lo is done with you. Enjoy while it last is all i can say.

MICHELLE OBAMA! A HEAD TURNER ANYDAY

I had to stop and use my trackpad slowly when i spotted this pale cream coloured asymmetric mono strap gown worn by Michelle Obama to the Governor's dinner. I totally love the embellished bodice in leaf designs and the bow design on the shoulder.

Michelle Obama

the bow i love

Forget the Oscar's she sure gave A-listers a big run for their money. Two words, gorgeous and stunning.

SEX AND THE CITY

THE STORIES,THE FASHION AND THE ADVENTURES

The very high end fashionable cover with SJP.

My best friend was in New-York briefly and while she was there,she told me everyday she went shopping,she got a book but i wonder how she didn't tell me about the new Sex and the city so when i got the memo she was back,i rushed there and the first thing my eyes saw was this book. It was so rich and the cover was very glam which was why i grabbed it and ducked it inside my bag.Seriously i had an amazing time reading this book which by the way i started reading in traffic but got so into it when i kept on flipping through the fabulous pages of the very adventurous Carrie Bradshaw, Samantha,Charlotte and Miranda... Do we have friends this close knitted these days?-Question for a few years time...Lol! And please don't mind my pictures,i just had to take them with my phone...*smiles*

One of my favorite piece by SJP and it simply reminded me of a dress made by the Nigerian designer Toju Foyeh for Most beautiful girl in Nigeria[MBGN] and Miss Nigeria 2010 when they made the Thisday style cover.

 Its so fascinating to know so much that we'd normally not even think of about the movie after reading this book. Things like the set designing and their wardrobes[my favorite parts],the stories behind the locations which a lot of people believed was in Abu Dhabi.[Sadly i have a few people say "i was in Dubai and my chauffeur took me round,we even went to some of the locations where sex and the city was shot"].

Now this is a re-make of business class session and lounge inside the supposed Fly Emirates airline.

And here's the 5star hotel they where lodged in but @ that time,it was new with no running water and constant electricity flowing but how'd you know if this book wasn't written..

Reading this book got me thinking when will Nollywood ever produce such a high budget movie but when the thought of how fast they take to produce a movie here and how long it takes to produce in Hollywood,i just zip. 

How the set designer transformed an empty space into this magnificent club  replicating what the producer  originally saw in Dubai is what got me.

The stylist Patricia Field,for sex and the city who i heard has her own book centered on the movie went through some rigorous work to put up pieces and looks for this movie. From the dresses to the shoes and the accessories including the out-of-this world diamond ring worth a whooping $4.9million plus its full-time security guard to and fro the location in far away Morocco which we all thought was Abu Dhabi..

My favorite look of Miranda. Total transformation from serious workaholic to glam glam

I love this dress by Oscar dela Renta on charlotte. The detailing is o interesting. too sad in the book she didnt stand.

Ok! i have a thing for one arm dresses and this is simply spectacular.

Glam Queen... Samantha pulled off every outfit she had on in SATC. This spiky shoulder jacket is simply to die for.  Took me back to a jacket from Burberry's 2011 S/S collection.

A pic of the cloths,accessories and shoes for SNTC

One of my favorite looks of Charlotte. Very chic and the LV weekender will almost pass as a go to bag... Lol!

Keke and I think this was one of the most fabulous dresses in the entire movie.... I'm sure we just love it on SJP.

I also have to confess that i hid somewhere in the office[our audio studio to be precise] just so i can have an absolutely "me time" enjoying this book. And by the time i updated my bbm status about having a good time reading this book,my best friend Keke called me and said "so you're with that book"... Lol

HIGH FASHION DRAMA

Nobody steps out dramatically like Anna Dello Russo... Always looking dramatic in every ensemble. For some reasons,i thought she's scared of coming out and being un-noticed. Well,good thing about looking dramatic is being able to pull it off and Anna is definitely doing that always...

Here's Anna wearing the spring/summer Balenciaga Hat at the Marni show in millan two nights ago.

ONE OF MY OBSESSIONS….MAN-BAG!!!

Ted Baker Holdalls

For all that knows me,i am always everywhere with either an holdall or a man-bag. Nameless or labelled. I have a few but there's this black nameless one that i have rocked the hell out of since November last year. I got it from Woolworth. It's such a lovely bag and just because I mentioned it being nameless in front of a Fab friend of mine,she got me the new holdalls from Ted Baker… And here it is… I love it! 

Actually i had the option of picking either brown or this shade of blue but for some very thickish reasons,i settled for the blue. This is definitely one of my favorite companions for the Arise Magazine Fashion week coming up…. Are you looking forward to it?

my nameless bag...LOL!

Another pic of me rocking it... Many people won't figure out its nameless though...LOL!!!


Have a beautiful week... 

HOT BLOKE!! Yes, HOT!!!

The Feb issue of Bloke
I was on a trip to South Africa last year to cover the Channel O awards and also do a few recordings too. And while i was there i had an ample time with my friend Warebi Martha. Trust me,sometimes the life of a model is not always fun. But Warebi was an amazing person. We talked a lot about fashion-of course,life interior deco and many other things that i wished i had my crew up and about with me everywhere we went to.

After moving up and down the fab lane of Jozi visiting the  most fabulous malls shopping for bags just to satisfy Warebi's thirst for bag-gable bags,we got down to gist[you can call it gossip if you so desire] and what were we talking about?

Warebi and I heading out to Kluk CGDT's studio...

Of course about the new magazine called Bloke which is published bi-monthly by my friend Omena Daniels with his team including two of my amazing friends Yolanda Okereke and Mayreejay. And how they'd love to have her on the cover and for Feb issue. She was excited about it and from my scoops,i heard they had a fantastic shoot with Joseph Benjamin too. I looked forward to the cover but only got my signed copy from the Publisher on friday the 24th of Feb when i came out of the cinema where Ini Edo was premiering her new movie "I'll take my Chances".

Ini Edo and I @ the premier of her movie  I'll take my chances.

WHAT I THINK: Firstly,I think the cover is fresh and I love the colour blend on it. Secondly,i love the fact that the team didn't used too much of internet pictures this time,instead they did a couple of shoots and the QUALITY  of the paper and print is right on point as well. Finally,i feel like am reading a Nigeria-lized Cosmopolitan…

Grab a copy....

My Signed copy...*smiling*
