March Inspirations

Starting this month, I will be having a mood board every month, which will included clips of what is currently inspiring me. I am currently loving neons, ethnic prints, leopards and zebra prints, leotards, mint green, mixing prints or florals, polka dots, Miu Miu checkered pumps, and Celine luguage tote. Can't forget a clear band Michael Kors. As you can see, I get my inspiration from almost anything.

What are your current inspiration?

Lady In Red

This is my first official post in 2012... :)

Hope everyone had a lovely holiday and the new year started off on a good note. I am still enjoying my visit here in Nigeria. It is a full house here because most family members from Canada and London are all in town; this means that the house is never dull. My husband's 20months old niece Maya is definitely entertaining everyone with her few words :) 

For this outfit, I decided to keep the accessories minimal. One thing some people fail to do is knowing when to go loud with accessories and when to keep it at a minimum.

On another note, being in Nigeria and driving through developed and undeveloped areas has brought a lot of happy & sad moments. One of the days that I was out with a friend, I came across this area seeing some overworked and malnourished kids brought tears to my eyes. I love that country, but I believe that a lot needs to be done and I plan in doing my own share; but it not what I can do alone. Lets make a difference please!

Outfit: Asos dress, Warehouse bag from Asos, Aldo shoes, Forever21 rings,  Mac Red lipstick by M.A.C


My husband & I! ;) When I told him that I was going to post the picture above, his response was, "Wow! I am making another debut on Jadore." He is a big joke star. LOL!

Have a wonderful week!

Stylishly yours...

Outfit: Zara pants, clutch, shoes; Nastygal cardigan; Michael Kors watch; earrings by Guinevere from Nordstrom

When I was putting this outfit together, I was thinking of a casual work Friday; this leads to happy hour and dinner with co-workers and friends. Colored pants are here to stay. We will be seeing lots of colored pants this fall. Instead of pairing these pants with bright colored blouses, pair them with warm and subtle fall colors like burgundy or navy.

Outfit: Zara pants, bag, blazer & shoes; YSL ring, Michael Kors watch; Hermes belt; 

... a great outfit for Fashion Night Out with girlfriends. Animal print is must-have for fall, but it doesn't mean you have to be covered in animal print from head-to-toe. Adding a black tee to the  outfit gives it a more relaxed look. Also, a blazer and orange belt add color to the outfit without being too "summer" bright. 

Outfit: Giuseppe-zanotti shoes, Chanel clutch, Asos romper, Bracelet--Kendra Scott from Nordstrom

For a date night, besides wanting to wear a cute short dress, you can also wear romper/playsuit. For example, the playsuit shown above has this sexy and classy appeal. For this outfit, the statement piece is the Giuseppe Zanotti wedge. Metallics are another trend to watch. They add an edge to an outfit without going overboard.

Have a wonderful Weekend!

What's for Dinner!

Yummy! ;)

The heat really got the best part of me this weekend. Even though the temperature was between 104 & 110 degrees, it felt worse than that. Besides some errands on Saturday, I tried to stay cool with my smoothies and bottles of cold water. On Sunday evening, I went for a friend's event who had a baby five days earlier. The baby is so cute. I keep getting the question from friends when I plan on  having mine. For now, I will gladly babysit until then :)

Anyway, that was my weekend in few sentences. What did you do over the weekend? Did you experience the heat wave?

PS: My prayers go out to all those affected in the Norway incident and the family & friends of Amy Winehouse (RIP).

Lot of Love,

Stella

All night long...

HAPPY WEEKEND! WHOOP! WHOOP!! :)

I have a lot to do today besides school work. As soon as I am done with this post, I am off to a manicure/pedicure (happy now Chi & Cenie!). Later on, I am meeting with friends to check out some flea market--this is my first time at one.  

Later on, I am off to the mall to get some birthday gifts for my husband's niece and a friend. Tonight is for birthday celebration at a comedy club. I am looking forward to some fun--walk hard, play hard :)

I am still accepting questions for "Get to know me post" that I will be doing next week. Leave a question or two.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your weekend!

xoxo

All my left over

These are some of the pictures I took couple months ago before the snows piled up, but for some reason, my old camera will not work for me to download the pictures. All of a sudden , it started working again. #smh

On a different note,  Have you ever gotten lost using GPS? On our way to my friend's birthday, we were practically 10 minutes away from the restaurant, but my "wonderful" GPS kept rerouting us for 20 minutes and then on our way back the GPS will not work from about 15-20 minutes. We were so lost.

All in all, I had a fun weekend. I will post the pictures later in the week.

Besides that, life as a graduate student has kicked off. With barely two weeks of classes, the stacks of things to read and do is scary; so I am about to put my nerdy glasses on and get my studying on (doesn't that rhyme...ha ha ha! :D )

Later that night, I changed to my brogues to hit the town.

 As I am writing, I am waiting for "Closer" to come on. For the mean time, I am catching up on re-runs of "The Real Housewives"--there are so many housewives' series that it is hard to keep up with.

I wonder why Kim from The Real Housewives of Atlanta is still trying to sing talk--like, are you serious!
