Tribals

Hello dolls,

So I just wanted to share with you something that i really think is trending at the moment. We've seen the crazy take on the maxi dress and skirts, Chiffon blouses, but one thing that is consistent are tribal patterned clothing. It seems to me that Africa has had a positive influence on clothing. The material used to make blazers and skirts resemble ankara and other native materials.  Feel free to mix up your outfit and go tribal. It could be a blazer with tribal patterns or a skirt with a plain top. Either way it brings out your personality and makes a bold statement. I tried this look out last sunday and i feel it was rather stunning. My top definitely did turn a few heads. Here are a few pictures so you guys know how to go about it. Also check out the boxing kitten website, a majority of their products are made out if ankara!! :D http://boxingkitten.com/

Hey Chiffon

Chiffon this summer really is a must have. Apart from the thin material with makes it absolutely fabulous to wear in warm weather, its more than fashion able. Worn in different shapes as sizes - usual with leggs but beautiful with anything. Favourites of mine are both printed/floral & plain colours.

check it out homies..

Turban

Yes ladies. This religious wear has not become one of the top trends of summer. Worn in many styles - this simple accessory can take an everyday street look to a very high fashion look. Many of you should have seen how Solange does it. Some dudes are even starting to pull it off & yes, they're pulling it off in the right way.

Grab a blazer

This summer really involves a lot of colours & one way to add them to your outfit is by wearing a blazer. Plain colours, bold colours depends on you, only make sure you dont have too many colours on unless your gonna go round looking like a circus. Yet again it all really depends on you & the look your tryna pull off. Ill advice everyone to try a patterned or coloured or printed blazers.

NOTE: Guys just watch how Kanye does it ;) You know its swag when Yeezy taught 'em.

Cropsss

As we all know ladies, this summer is all about the smallest shirt you can find - be it crops, bralettes, or tube tops. Whether home made or bought, these tops can be worn in hundreds of ways; with maxi skirts, body cons, booty shorts & etc.

NOTE: these are best worn with a flat belly, thank you x

Leather Slippers (Stubs & Wooten)

(As worn by Kanye West)

I look at these shoes & a little voice in my head goes #SWAGG. 

They are sold in Palms from #N80,000+ depending on the shoes detail, but you could find them online for probably about £110.

Snapbacks

Snapback hats are from the 80s & 90s. Go retro!

Make up tip - Summer look

Summer is all about looking happy. The weather's perfect, no school, all of your friends its the perfect time to express yourself, your opinion and what you stand for. Don't be afraid to shine. Speaking of which using a little white liner (preferably pencil ) on your lower lash line helps to bring out your eyes and illuminate them. So they have this lovely natural glow.

Feel free to try this whether you're going out for lunch with girls, a date or just lazing in at home. Don't forget t email pictures to sherry_amusan@yahoo.com or themakeupfanatic@hotmail.com

The almighty wedge heel

The wedge heel. Where would a majority of girls be without this magnificent shoe. Fair enough stilletos seem to be the it thing but who says the wedge heels isn't working it out. This summer I can guarantee you there'll be wedge heels all over the place. They're comfortable, easy to walk in and stunning. Now tell me this isn't much better than a stilleto. Fashion has progressed over the years so don't be freaked out by the crazy designs coming out for wedge heels. Below are a couple wedges that are in style this summer.

The Maxi dress

The maxi dress is most definitely an it thing at this time of the year, it gives you room to work with colour, shapes and lengths. The beautiful things about the maxi dress is there is one for everyone be you short, tall, plus size, or slim. I have definitely invested in a couple this month as a matter of fact i bought one today from internacionale at 29.99. It's absolutely gorgeous and fits like a glove. Below are the maxi dresses reigning this season. - shannelle

The long skirt (Maxi)

 

 Long skirts arent exactly the first choice of bottoms with most girls. I mean who really wants to cop that "Mariam Amaka" style. But they do in fact make one look elegant plus are very simple to pair with tops/blouses. When worn with heels they can make a "tall" illusion.

Prints On Prints

Now prints are going to be seen everywhere this season. There are Bohemian prints, animal prints, floral prints, Aztec prints and hey lets not forget about the prints seen on Ankara.

Best Ways To Wear Prints

1.) With a brightly coloured top or bottom (basically a solid colour that complements the prints)

 

 

2.) Prints on prints, be bold.. You don't have to settle for ordinary try something new. Mix different colours as seen on Koro (third picture). Her outfit literally makes a statement.
