Toyin Lawani flaunts it too!

I am sure by now a lot of you would have seen photos from the Eloy Awards that held on Sunday 30 November, at the Intercontinental Hotel, Victoria Island, Lagos..  lots of beautiful ladies and dapper men were in attendance to celebrate women of excellence.

Toyin Lawani of Tiannah styling dared to bare her cleavage in a see-through sequin black frock. Sometimes you've just got to flaunt what you've got- well, I blame this on Kim Kardashian. We all know Kim is a professional at flaunting cleavage, and she has been showing off her assets a lot but watch out Kim, there are many more naija celebs who have cleavage and want to show it off! Are you feeling this look?

Genevieve: Beautiful on Black Dress Trend

Miss Genevieve Nnaji shimmered and sparkled in a long black dress and gold link detailing at the closing night of the 2014 Africa International Film Festival (AFRIFF). She looked effortlessly stunning. Even though her make up isn't on point in this photo, I still love her style anytime any day! Do you like?

Let's Talk Wide Leg

When you start adding up all the fashion trends, you actually wonder if we’re ever going to come through with something new? We all know fashion is cyclical…I must confess. I am longing for some new fashion movements, ideas and controversy in style that will sweep me off my feet and have me stare in shock and wonder at some new unseen-before fashion & styles. Until then we’ll always have the comfortable safe past to look into and take inspiration from. Such is the case of the bohemian 1970’s wide leg pants - 70s is the new 90s! Again (without intention I tell you) I have discovered yet another fashion craze from back in the day. If a while ago I was so excited over heavy coloured outfits, today I decided to give in to the Flared Jeans & Trousers Trend. Though I wasn’t too keen on the bell bottom, high-waisted retro looking jeans… I stand corrected, and for that I blame Kourtney Kardashian, Rita Dominic and Kate Moss. I mean have you seen how these women look in flared jeans? Ridiculously cool, feminine and chic!

There’s a little something for us all from the classic retro look to the opulent extravagance some of us are willing to try. But really, Is this trend worth the-back-in-time fashion journey or not? Here are few photos

 

 

 

 

 

Wardrobe Crush; Genevieve Nnaji

Take your cue from Genevieve Nnaji's wardrobe combo. Frocks, flats, bare legs and braids- it's all you need to know. She recently re-launched her St. Genevieve clothing line in collaboration with online retailer Jumia. I simply adore this talented Nollywood actress. Check out her styles below and be inspired.

 

Celebrity Sunglasses Trends

Sunglasses are an important fashion accessory that are worn by everyone and you can never have enough pairs of them. Aviators, cat eye, wraps, butterfly, keyhole, the possibilities are endless!
My pick are these ones worn by our naija celebs. We all know celebrities take out their best attire and inspire our fashion choices. But since it's sunglasses I am interested in, let's have a look at some of the most popular styles trending.

Cat eye sunglasses have been around for a while, but it looks like they’re moving away from their ’50’s roots and into more modern shapes. They now come with embellishments of sorts, in irregular shapes, and can even be worn by men (if they dare). 

 

Clear frames. These look great on both glasses and sunglasses, they’re unisex and very versatile. You might see them on round, square, cat eye or butterfly-shaped frames. They are light and eye-catching.
