Bloggers Get Blushed Event

While in Nigeria, I attended the Bloggers Get Blushed event in Lagos, which turned out to be great and fun. I honestly didn't know what to expect and at the same time, I was so nervous how people were going to receive me. Of course, being shy makes it even harder; but when I got there, I was beyond impressed. Nneka of Neks2u did a great job in organizing the event and Blush Beauty Salon was super beautiful--special thanks for having me :)

I had the opportunity of meeting other bloggers and Jadore-fashion readers. I was just overwhelmed and appreciative of all the readers' love and support. Words can barely describe how I was received. Thank you to all my amazing readers--LOVE YOU

It was nice to meet these lovely ladies Waila and Salewa

Some bloggers/attendants also got a "Blush" makeover too...

With bloggers & readers...

These two ladies were so nice--big supporters of this site--Thank you so much for the love xo

Recapping

I am finally home and safe; but I am super tired and jetlagged. My original flight was supposed to leave last Friday, but due to the labor strike, my flight got canceled and rescheduled with a new flight and route. Instead of going through Houston, my rescheduled flight went through Germany and NY--the longest flight. I slept so much that I got tired of sleeping. I think I need my own private jet; who wants to buy one for me? :) LOL

Right now, I am trying to adjust back to the time zone here because Nigeria is 6 hours ahead. At the same time, I am getting things ready for my last semester as a graduate...phewwwww!

The bar and buffet -- great place to chill with friends

Out In Lagos

Hey beautiful people! How is your day going? I am officially on my way back to the airport and heading back to the States. I had an awesome time here despite my flight being rescheduled due to the labor strike.  I went almost everywhere that I wanted to go to and all has been fun filled with interesting experiences. 

Went out with some family friends to the beach by Lekki in Lagos. They were also having some sort of a reunion thing for my friend's school: Covenant University. It was just nice setting with our friends and enjoying the company of the other visitors at the event.

Enjoying some nice Nigerian music ;)

Pop of Color

It feels so good to just be home sleeping in today. I have finally decided to get contacts--yes, I do use prescription glasses which I dislike because it hurts the bridge of my nose and it makes it difficult for me to wear my lovely sunglasses ;-). Hope I like using contact because I don't like the idea of sticking my hands in my eyes lol. Stay tuned because I will definitely have my complains or love for the contacts.
Hope everyone is having a wonderful week. Those looking forward to the weekend, hold tight because its almost here. :)

I had a question from an anonymous reader who wanted to know places where to take kids to in Lagos or Abuja, Nigeria. To answer your question my lovely reader, I have found some few places I believe your kids will enjoy. In Lagos, there are places like the Water Park, Lekki Conservation Center in Lekki, Silver Bird Cinema, Fantasy Land, and Funtopia to name a few. In Abuja, there are Wonderland Park, Children's Garden, and Millennium Park. I hope this helps!

peace!
