Never knew the effect of tightening the waist until the day I dared to tuck in my Three-quatre Shirt into my Bootcut Jean, and finished it up with a slim belt. That was the day I proved to myself that I had lovely curves. This is exactly what Peplum does to our feminine body, it tightens the waist and brings out the hidden curves. It accentuates our curves in the best way possible when paired with Pencil Skirts and Slim Fit Trousers. 

TRAFFIC LIGHT EATING

Found this in http://healthyfoodfashionista.com and we need to read and adapt the TRAFFIC LIGHT EATING.

 HEALTHY FOOD FASHION STYLE GUIDE TIP

 Stock Your Closet with the Classics. When you have a closet full of basic, classic items (think little black dress, A-line skirt, wrap dress and great jeans) getting dressed in the morning is easy and you don’t have to worry about whether or not you are in or out of style. The same thing is true with your kitchen cupboard and fridge. If you follow the traffic light eating system you can always create a fabulous but simple and healthy meal with very little effort.

Traffic light eating means categorizing food into three simple color categories: green, yellow and red.  Green light foods are go or “grow” foods that you can eat anytime and as much as you want.  Green light foods include all fruits and veggies.


You should also stock you pantry with yellow light foods. Yellow light foods are “slow down” foods. They can and should be eaten every day, just not too much. Yellow light foods are nutrient dense foods that usually have more calories, fat or sugar than Green light foods. Yellow light foods include whole grains such as breads, pastas, cereal and rice, eggs, lean meat, fish, yogurt, cheese, nuts, seeds and olive oil.
We all know what’s next in this system, right?  Red light foods. Red light foods require you to “stop and think” so that you can either make a better choice or eat a smaller portion. Red light foods are low in nutrients, high in sugar, bad fat and calories. Red light foods usually contain food additives, artificial sweeteners, and hydrogenated oils or trans-fat. Red light foods include all boxed or factory baked goods, fast food, white bread, candy, doughnuts, chips, sugary drinks and highly processed meats.
There you have it, traffic light eating in a nutshell. Easy, right? (Don’t worry about answering; I know it’s easy because I’ve taught this system to preschoolers!)

The Right Shoe For The Right Occasion

There is one thing that pops up and brightens the outfit of a lady, thereby beautifying an entire outfit and adorning the legs, SHOES. Although it sometimes seem to be the smallest item of an outfit, but it makes a very big effect and difference. Yes it’s true that it beautifies the outfit, but it can also destroy the entire outfit when worn wrongly, just as Nupur Dayal wrote; http://blog.bestylish.com/tips-on-wearing-the-right-shoe-for-the-right-occasion/2011/11/ “Wearing the right shoe for the right occasion makes or breaks an outfit.” This makes it very important for ladies to wear the Right shoe for the Right Occasion.

Asides from the occasion, there are different things that determine the choice of shoes to be worn, for example; What you are wearing, The weather, and Physical Circumstances.


Where Are You Going?
Going out for Shopping or hanging out with friends; choose flats shoes or sandals. For the official look, selected flat shoes with not too many colors (single colors preferably) and Pumps are good to go. Going out for a date? Blings are so allowed, now you can choose either the New glitter Pumps or Sandals, bright color shoes are also beautiful. Going out to the beach; this is less stressful, all you need are bright colors, high heel shoes are not always appropriate for the beach, I bet you won’t even concentrate on the fun things as much as you concentrate on your shoes digging into the sand.

What Are You Wearing?
“Formal goes with formal Nupur” wrote. Most times occasions affect the dress and the shoes all together. This is simply; wearing a beach dress or shorts means wear a colourful sandals or slipper. wearing a dinner dress, means wear a sexy peep toe or covered pumps or platform sandal. Wearing a Joggers means wearing a girly Cross Trainers shoe.

What’s The Weather Like?
Most times in Nigeria, the raining season affects the choice of shoes. The new trend of fancy Rubber slippers, sandals and shoes has made it a whole lot easier for us. You Don’t need to worry about your leather shoe being socked in water or your damp feet trapped in your socked shoes. The interesting thing is that this rubber shoes and multi-purpose, they can be worn both in the raining and dry season, so you don’t have to keep it for months in your rack. During the Harmattan season, booties are your comforter, they keep your feet warm and fresh.

What Is Your Physical Circumstance?
Are you unable to wear high heels or scared of pencil heels? The new trendy Block Heels are your saviours, wearing flats all the days of your life makes your look predictable. Is it that you don’t have time to go for your Manicure? Ok!!! wear the covered Pumps, they’ll keep your secret.

Wearing the Right shoe for the Right occasion is as important as eating the right meal at the right time. The effect is always there, either Fabulous, Good, Ok, or Bad.

A John Hancock for the Ankara Fabric

Yes!!! A big signature for the Ankara Fabric. Africans and most especially Nigerians are rocking the Ankrara Fabric without a pause. There are a lot of prove that this Fabric is no longer for just wedding and any other traditional occasions, just as Imayen Ekaette Esther rightly commented "Arise Fashion week designers showed the fashion world the creativity in african prints,  the flexibility in wearing ankara to a wedding but also to shop down Sloane square"  http://themogue.co.uk/modest-african-fashion-spring-summer-2012/, they are now worn for Casual occasions and even Dinner. Right now the love for Ankara and the wisdom that comes with this awareness, is spreading all around like wild fire, as the readymade dresses can be found all over the place, in Boutiques, and Online stores such as Babe4life.
                                      

                                                                                         

This Ankara Clutch Bags were on dealdey earlier and it was sold in a little space of time. Designers are really getting more creative by the day and are ready to explore more. Now I can say we are beginning to appreciate our culture like never before. This time, it is not a selected few, but the majority. Big Ups to the Ankara Fabric.

Back from School

Are you girls not surprise at the sudden back from school shoes? I mean old school shoes, such as the Clogs and Brouge shoes. Even the shoe I never thought was good looking is now back into fashion in full force, as we can see the Brouge and Clog shoes in Jimmy Choo 2012 Fall collection http://www.vogue.com/collections/spring-2012-rtw/jimmy-choo/accessories/#/collection/accessories/spring-2012-rtw/jimmy-choo/332. C'mon check these shoes out, back in 2010, would you have thought people will want to wear them on their feet? But to prove us wrong, people don't only wear them on their foot, they feel fly in them. Girls if you don't have any of these old school shoes, then you are old school yourself. I must confess I love love love these shoes now, am even surprised at myself. Hmmm its a must have.

Almost no Barrier in Fashion

At times I wonder why some people decide to just wear whatever they want to wear, is it because they don't give a damn about fashion, or they don't just want to follow the trend, or they are tired of trying to wear the right thing at the right time or tired of wearing colour riot, well, if you are among these categories, then there is a good news for you. Year 2012 is a year that has decided to favour you, cos right now, there are almost no barriers in fashion, so long you don't decide to be foolish anyway. Barriers like colours(colour riot), old school patterns, too corporate, too casual, everything has been mixed up together with amount of freedom. Just as in the Spring 2012 Trend http://www.glamour.com/fashion/2011/09/spring-2012s-most-wearable-fashion-trends#slide=1, there is nothing like colour riot any more as long as you stick to three colours, cos in fact colours are fashionable now, there is nothing like old school pattern such as the plaid or checked, even the Vintage style which are all back in fashion, there is nothing like being too corporate or too casual cos they have been mixed together, office clothes are no longer just shirt and skirt or trouser, and casual dressing are no longer a top on a skirt or jeans, corporate dresses are loosened and casual dresses has found there way to the corporate looks, just as in you can see in these pictures. So now, no more excuses because there are almost no barriers in fashion.
