Hello beautiful people! Another week and closer to May! The month May is looking like the best month--birthday + graduation...I am excited :) Hope everyone had a great weekend. 

I spent my day as usual in the library. In fact, if you follow me on Facebook, I posted a comment complaining how tired I was because I was in the library on Sunday until 1am working on 40 page paper. Thank goodness that is over now because I just submitted it about an hour ago. Now, all I need is sleep. The word "sleep" is missing in my syllabus.

Outfit: Zara pants & shoes (old)

Rowme blouse

H&M clutch

Lipstick: Mac Red

Jewelries: Forever21 heart ring, H&M ring, & Bar II bracelet

Strips & Prints

How is everyone doing this week? Hope you all enjoyed your Easter weekend. 

Did you guys do anything special? 

For me, I really didn't have much celebration or anything special. After working on Saturday, I headed to Panera to meet with my study group since the school library closed earlier.  We spent Saturday working on two reports that are due in the coming week. Studying at Panera Bread this weekend, I am beginning to think that the store's marketing strategy is to intentional make the environment cold because it was so cold in there that we had to constantly consume coffee and soup. I don't know how many caramel latte and chicken noodle soup I consumed this weekend at Panera. Smh!

Then on Sunday, after the dancing and church fun, I picked up my bags and head to school again. This time, I had to divide my time between two groups. I met with my "Financial Statement" group before continuing the night with my "Strategic Management" group. Exhausted is an understatement on how I feel. The good news is that I have three more weeks of graduate school. :)

Don't forget you can catch up with me on Facebook here for more interactions. On my Facebook page, I post a lot items from current obsessions, items bought, or where to buy something that I love, editorial & street style inspirations. Also on my twitter here, I interact with all followers and I answer all questions that you may have right away.

Wearing: JCrew Pants (here)

Enjoy the rest of you week!

The Fashion Items Making Its Mark

Traditionally worn by skydivers, FormulaOne racers and small children, the jumpsuit has made its way onto the catwalksover the last few years. Kate Moss, Emma Watson, Blake Lively and Eva Longoriaare all fans of the fashion forward look. But if you’ve invested in some of thefabulousplaysuits and jumpsuits at Very, what should you be doing to ensure you’rerocking the look?

Firstly, adapt your outfit to the season. During the cooler months, team a bright playsuit with a blazer jacket, black, high denier tights and cute pumps for daywear and patent heels for the evening. This is perfect for those blustery days when the perils of wearing a dress are all-too-obvious for us ladies. A playsuit will avoid those awkward moments and mean that you don’t have to spend your days holding down your skirt.

And we all know that a good outfit can be accessorised for all seasons. As soon as it’s warm enough, ditch the tights for some fake tan and super high wedges. A cardigan and heavy statement jewellery will finish off your spring or summer look and help you embrace the youthful element of the playsuit. Perfect for the poolside, shopping with friends or a sunny date, this look will always be a winner.

So, when can a jumpsuit go wrong? Avoid a full-legged jumpsuit if it comes in orange; you’ll look like you’re an extra on Prison Break. In fact, be wary of long-legged jumpsuits if patterned, too, for the same reason you’d never wear a patterned top and trouser set. Floral or patterned looks will have a great effect in a playsuit, because your legs break it up a little. Avoid a jumpsuit if you’re tall, since it’s likely to end up being too tight as a result of your longer torso or the legs will swing round your ankles. For the tall ladies out there, your long legs will look fabulous making their way out of a playsuit or go for the tall maxi dresses collection.

Now wardrobe staples for fashionistas all over the world, the jumpsuit and playsuit are fabulous ways to show off yourplayful and glamorous side in one look.

Virgos Lounge: Spring/Summer 2012 Collection

Over the years, I have fallen in love with Virgos Lounge, a Nigeria-owned, London-based label. They never disappoints. If you remember the shorts that I wore for a bloggers' event in Nigeria [here], it was from their collection from last year. Love the detailing and vintage look that their collections exudes.

The label just launched their Spring/Summer 2012 collection yesterday, which means that they are available to shop at Virgos Lounge and they ship to U.S & international.

Love the pastel colors, the beading, and details. You will definitely be seeing me in some of these pieces.

On another news, the label recently annonnced that they will be launching its "High Summer" collection at Topshop's flag store in Oxford Circus store, London on April 29th. 

Have a fabulous weekend!

Peek-a-boo

How is everyone doing? Another new month--Happy New Month everyone! Wishing you all a wonderful month filled with love, happiness, and peace :)

How was everyone's weekend? I finally got a chance to go to the movies after months of procrastination due to my busy schedule with school. I saw the movie "Safe House". Has anyone seen it yet? Love the movie and Denzel Washington never disappoints. He is a brilliant actor--love his attitude in the movie. I was also surprised to see Ryan Reynolds is something besides a romantic comedy and I loved it.

Regarding my outfit, I wanted to wear something simple, but yet sexy and edgy. I love the shirt. As soon as I received it from Sugarlips, I was eager to wear it even though the weather was saying otherwise. I love the peek-a-boo at the back--so sexy huh ;)

I can't wait to also wear it as a coverup on the beach paired with destructive denim shorts or maybe a floral shorts. As you can see, I can't wait for my vacation trip to Puerto Rico next month...Whoop! Whoop!

Outfit: Blouse courtesy of Sugarlips, Forever 21 neon jeans, H&M bag & crop top, Zara shoes, Michael Kors watch 

I have to get some sleep now because my alarm will be going off in 4hours 

Have a fabulous week!

J.CREW: Fall 2012

Jenna Lyons the president and creative director of J.Crew never disappoints. Love the preppy and eclectic style of this collection. The use of color, prints, and textures is just amazing that I could not take my eyes off these looks.

I will definitely be wearing some of these looks once their hit the stores.

I love J.Crew for their statement pants and prints: tweets, paisleys, and plaids--always unique. 

The shoes and the patterns are simply gorgeous. These are the new J.Crew collaboration with Manolo Blahnik.
