Being a shoe lover, I had to get my hands on a lace up heel. Its been trending for a while now and it stills a style I feel every lady should have in her closet, its quite sexy and can enhance any look. A lot of fashion bloggers are in on the trend and celebrities. Here are a few inspirations below.

Do you love this shoe trend?

XOXO

Happy Holiday!! where the ram at? I'm definitely doing some little movement today for some ram, right after spending some family quality time. I am really loving these accessory and fashion pieces I got from Jumia. I actually wore this outfit yesterday to get a few things done. I am in need of a serious vacation foreal. Being a full time mum and trying to get things done is not as easy as Instagram makes some mothers look.

I have had this kimono for a while, but I don't know why It never made to the blog. It really gives me life, and I'm a lover of bright colors so its just perfect. Also, the white mule heels are so comfortable. I can actually wear it for a whole day. I made direct links to where I got each of the pieces I got from Jumia. Check out the full look below, enjoy!! and send some Sallah meat my way.

I recently did a little shopping on JUMIA, just to add a few nice pieces to my closet. I think this is my first time doing a haul with all the items from Lagos, pretty cool right? its really hard in this streets for a plus-size girl here, but good accessories make me feel better.

1) I got a pair of white mule heels, I went for the 3 inches heels because I finally realized I need to have some shoes that are easy to wear and I have on for the whole day without thinking I need a chair to sit on from time to time.

2) As you all know, I love funky, colorful and edgy pieces "did I just say funky?", well I can't hide how I feel. This clutch caught my eyes while I was shopping, can't wait to style it.

3) lastly, just a simple dangling earring. I don't have much, so I just decided to get an extra piece.

check them out below.

Here are the following links to the products:

Hey guys, I hope the month is looking great and promising so far. Mine has been quite interesting, packed and feels very promising :D. I actually wore this outfit to a meeting yesterday, which I'm quite excited about and hopes it goes well. The weather was quite hot, which I'm sure most of you are quite aware that stay in Lagos. I had to wear something quite light, that's why I have my white vest on with a very light open shirt with a slit at the back. Check out more of the pictures below.
