oh yeah! final year........

         I remember the exact day I resumed as a fresher here in Covenant uni...those memories are very nostalgic and dear to me. I also remember how I was ridiculed and 'mocked' for my choice;  my friends laughed at me and never missed an opportunity to poke at me..."oh, you're going to Convenant ?"...."that glorified secondary school?" This constant ridicule has continued even till my final year. *shrug* I survived didn't I? And every time I remember my days as a fresher am like "wow, time fucking flies!"
         Well this is a kind of reminiscence about the days-weeks-months-years past. It is also a kind of outlet where I would be able to let off some 'final year steam', 'cuz baby, it's all about final year on here!
         I would also be comparing my 'dreams' about Uni and what I actually experienced (boy,was I let down). But I would go all cliche by saying that I gained more than I lost (yeah, yeah, whatever). So from today I'm gon be writing about my life in school and how I can't wait to get the fuck outta here (kukere)....(azonto)...(etighi).............

Sunday series


Today's service was great......and I felt great too....wearing my fave skirt, I had a new spring to my step, just because I wore my best striped skirt.:D.
Okay! Let's have the analysis of the outfit...
  1. A white top with contrasting black collars, and a handful of stars here and there
  2. black and white striped skirt from primark
  3. nude and black patent court shoes
  4. suede envelope clutch
  5. accessories were minimal...a black bangle, a couple of rings, and my fave goddess earrings. :D

















And I'm in my elements with the monochromatic trend...I love me some "black 'n' white".
Also, if you need help with print clashing,the following tips would do you good;
  • choose a "theme"! Your theme could be the prints, colour, etc.....for example, your theme  colour  could be blue. so in both separates (for example, a top and shorts), the prints should have blues at thereabout the same shade so it gives it a kind of balance.
  • be confident!!! this is the most important aspect. print clashing is a challenge so you have to be confident, else, you could end up being a fashion victim

Redefinition!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So I've finally decided to bring to your notice, officially that I'd be launching my own clothing line and clothier's services during the REDEFINITION FASHION SHOW. For non-CU peeps, 'redef' as it is often called is an annual event that takes place in Covenant Uni. and students showcase their work and also compete in a theme battle section.
Last year we had the presence of famous designers like Ohimai Atafo, Lanre Da Silva, Uche Nnaji and so on. this year's event promises to be bigger and better so I'd be briefing you constantly about the event to take place on the 14th of April.
So y'all should remember me in your thoughts and prayers.

Trend Watch

Today's trend is the ever revolving PEPLUM. A short over-skirt or ruffle attached at the waistline of a jacket, blouse, or dress. Peplum is very easy to wear as it fits almost every body shape. It gives a nipped waist silhouette making the waist appear smaller. It's also very easy to adopt into any dress, skirt, blouse or jacket and also there are variations of this trend. It trended in 2009 and 2010 and has make a come back this year.
DRESSES
Estelle

Asymmetric peplum

Long peplum

Structured peplum

JACKETS

Do you like this trend?
