Print-a-coat

Hi Everyone! I am pretty much excited about today's post, you know that feeling when you finally achieved something that has been taking you a while to do. Yeah, right? I had this outfit planned for last sunday but i had to change last minute due to some uncontrollable circumstances. It wasn't funny at all but I learnt from that experience.
My experience made me realize that my attitude towards people and things around me is very important. Its more important than skills or gifts, facts, failures or successes, education, money or even what people say or think. Our attitude can make or break a relationship, a home, a company, even a church. You and I have that choice regarding the attitude we portray everyday. We can't change our past...we cannot change the way people act. The only thing we have is our attitude, life is 10% what happens to you and 90% of how you react to it. We and we only are in charge of our attitudes.
So, I have resolved that to truly show that I am in charge of my attitude; I will first of, be more grateful to God to be alive.
Secondly, be more generous and expand my heart to accomdate lots of love for many many people.
And Lastly, humble myself to be of more benefit to others, helping them to acheive their greatest desires.

Wined and Dined


Hi Everyone!
A very happy new year to you. May this year bring you all that you truly desire.
I am sorry I have been MIA, trying to juggle schooling, family and business. This year i hope to do a lot better so help me God.

No one is in control of your happiness but you. You have the power to change anything about you or your life that you want to change. This year, make it a priority to be happy. Happiness isnt a destination but the manner of travelling. It is really a by-product of working, playing, loving and living.


To be truly happy; Love someone, anyone and shower them with loads of love. Work hard, Work smart and Lastly keep a clear conscience.

I had a wonderful new year celebration. As a tradition of ours, Hubs and I had dinner with friends. I wanted to look different and with a bang too. What better way to do that with a Jumpsuit and in a lovely colour at that.


Hope you love every bit of it. Dont forget to drop a comment, thanks!

 Hi lovelies,

I love it when your accessories make statement, especially if it is handmade. This bag from accessories by mabeli is beyond gorgeous. It can be paired with anything. I look forward to remixing this gorgeous piece. This umbrella dress is from mabeli's latest collection 'tres chic'. I will be wearing pieces from the collection. This dress is easily one of my favourites, from the colour to the fabric. Its made from knit fabric, so it stretches. I absolutely love it (of course i made it).

 
Hope you enjoyed it?

Houndstooth and leather

Hi lovelies,
How was your week? Hmn! My week was busy as usual in between preparation for my bestie'wedding and sewing for two bridal trains. I am not complaining, I am extremely grateful for this oppourtunity and the people around me who encourage me.
I dont follow all trends, I pick the ones I love and take my time to recreate it. I feel it is more appealing to try out trends when its declining. The monochrome trend is one trend that will never fade, it will always be around. The first time leather skirts, shorts ,trousers and houndstooth trend started I knew i had to have one but of course i waited.
So here is my take on the three trends.
Hope you enjoy....

Hi lovelies!

How was your week? Been a while eh! I am sorry i haven't available for a while. Between my internet service provider crashing and my busy schedule. Blogging had to be on hold but am back.


Jackets are one of my favourites pieces, especially ankara Jackets. They are very versitile and can be paired with pants, jeans, skirts or dresses. I love the prints on this one.

Rainbow Vibes



Hi lovelies! How was your sunday? Hope you had a great time in church? I had such a wonderful time in church, I danced and sang like never before. I was so exicted today, being the first day of a new month. Last weekend was my birthday, we had a couple of friends over and it was awesome. Sorry didn't take pictures.

About today's post, I made this dress over two months ago and never really got a chance to wear it until today. I love everything about this dress, the colours, prints and the style. This dress is very femine and flattering, hugs me in the right place. The colours reminds me of the rainbow, which signifies a fresh start and new promises. I pray this month brings me just that.

I do appologise for the picture quality. It will get better, I promise. What do you think about my outfit?

I am glad its begining to take form now. *Don't worry details will coming on the blog soon* Today I deciced to share a post I found in my archives. I got this ankara fabric from a local market. I just couldnt resist making a Jacket from it and whew! I am so glad it turned out well. It was fun sewing this Jacket. I love the little detail at the back, it sorts of adds an edge to the whole outfit. I paired it with my yellow pumps I got from Jumia.com, a black handmade clutch from Clover creations and gold chain necklace

Beyond Resolutions

HI, Happy new year y'all!! 2014 was an awesome year for me, a lot happened and I remain grateful to God. I took a step further in my business and added an accessories line. I also started some projects I have been meaning to start in a long while. I am thankful to everyone who was a part of my 2014 and made visible impact in my life. My friends and family I say thank you! I hope we do more this year. I am not one to do 'new year resolutions' but this year I am making an exception because 2014 was a very great year, so many things started that I would like to continue. I am not calling them resolutions per se but goals, dreams. firstly, blogging of course, I would like to blog more often this year. Secondly I want to take new risks, do new things and break new grounds this year and lastly, I want to be a better person, wife. What about you? Are you making any resolutions this year, what are they? Don't forget the most important thing is implementing the changes you want. Thank you for stopping by. 'Damola
