Bows in August

Hello Loviessss,

Happy New Month!!! Hope you all had a splendid weekend? I had a pretty good one half wishing there could be a repeat of the short holiday (if wishes were horses...).

Anyways i have been in a very happy mood because its my birthday month and there is so much to be thankful for. 
My mind drifted to my primary school days when we would form a big circle break time and sing the popular song "All those that are born in January...." I am not sure i knew the correct lyrics then because i used to say " All those that are born in August stand up stand up, ariya riya roses God bless you..."Hahaaha. Whatever ariya riya meant then only God knows...LOL.
Anyways, fast forward to today and thank God for my friend google, i searched childhood songs and i almost passed out from laughing; remembering the songs we used to sing then and also the correct lyrics...lol.

Well if you went to primary school in Nigeria, you would remember the following songs:
- Who stole the meat from the cooking pot, number 1 stole the meat from the cooking pot who me? Yes you, it couldn't be, then who?...lol
- Sanda lily sanda lily which i later found out was- standard living standard living...lol
- Oh my home, oh my home when shall i see my home (ireti give us food o) ...hahaha
- Old roger is dead and gone to his grave...hahahaha
and the list continues.
While I am sure the children of today would have their own moments i doubt they'll have as much fun compared to what we had then *Just Saying*
 So i have tagged August my month of celebration because God has promised me there would be something to celebrate in my life everyday in this month of August. 
 On to my outfit of the day, i am wearing a white Oasis crop jacket with tiny bow and gold button details on the sleeves and pockets, cobalt blue skirt and my very comfy RL shoes - old.
In other news, i need a holiday badly, I honestly can't wait to go away and just rest. Excuse my slightly irritated left eye, i woke up this morning and noticed it was a bit dark, this usually happens when my body needs time out. Thankfully its not very obvious in the pictures.

Have a fabulous week ahead lovies and if there songs you remember from your childhood? Lets read them in the comment box, i am sure we would all have a good laugh.

Thanks for always reading.

xoxo.

Standing Tall in the Storm & Dancing in the Rain

Hello My Loviesss, Happy Eid-Mubarak. I have been so happy since friday and i am sure you know why; the much needed break has been the best thing to happen to me since sliced bread :-p. I have been working,working and working, wondering when i'll get some time out just to catch my breath and thankfully, Eid-Mubarak made it happen. So I woke up about 5am today -can you imagine on a holiday; i guess my body is just used to it. As i lay in bed listening to the sound of rain, my mind sort of drifted to the popular saying ' Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass, its about learning to dance in the rain'. There are so many interpretations given to this saying: - Not letting bad stuff get you down - Not allowing anything deter you from reaching your full potentials - Learning to enjoy the journey and having a positive attitude in the stormy seasons - Not wasting time and waiting around for the perfect time to start living your life. - Learning to adapt to change no mat...

In Love again - My New Sunnies

Image
Hello Loviesssss, Thank God the weekend is here. Easter made friday come really quick :-) I had been planning on getting new sunnies for a while now, kind of got bored with the old ones. I am one of those people who believe in getting or investing in a really good pair of sunglasses not just as a fashion statement but for proper protection from the terrible sun these days. It might cost a bit, but in the long run its well worth it. Anyhoo, i wanted to get the Katy Perry or Dita Von Teese cat eyed look and i saw a couple that were close but this Balmain baby stole my heart. Not too cat eyed shaped but just enough to give me that look.  Its chocolate brown, got these studs around it giving it the edgy look but still has the chic sexy shape i wanted.  It costs anywhere between $350-$450 but thanks to one of my favorite people in the world, i got it as a gift.   But hey, you could get similar ones for a lot less *wink*. BTW, i had a domestic accident during the easter break; ...
