It felt like spring

It might not be as warm as summer, but one of the days, it felt like spring. It was so warm that it felt unbelievable for such warmth in February here in Maryland. I had to quickly pretend like it was summer for a second (disclaimer: don't try this at home--it was a bit cold LOL). 

Where at thou, warm weather? I miss my summer outfits especially after being in Nigeria for nearly a month with sunlight and warmth.

Anyway, this is a short week for me because I was off on Monday. I am looking forward to the weekend already. I have a wedding to attend this weekend. What do I wear? Since I don't have the "Asoebi" (couple's uniform), I am thinking of wearing a long skirt or a capri type pants similar to this post here.

Outfit: Zara blouse, Forever 21 polka dot shots (from 5/6 yrs ago), Christian Louboutins, Michael Kors Rose Gold watch

I can barely stay awake...on that note, sweet dreams!

Blue Sky

Hello loves! How is everyone's week been so far? I hope you all had a wonderful Valentine's day? I had a lovely Valentine's day though I spent three hours of my evening in a strategic management class. 

Earlier in the day, I got a surprise delivery from my hubby. I was so shocked when I got a call from him asking me to come outside at work. Initially, I thought he was kidding because he told me earlier that he was at work. When I got outside, he was actually standing there with 2 dozens of pink and red roses. I was blushing like a new bride :) Then my shy self, I had to carry the huge flowers back to my desk and everyone I passed screamed, "awwwww" :) The surprise and flowers definitely made my day--Love you babe!

On another note, did you guys watch the Grammys? Any favorite performer? I couldn't get enough of Adele--love her! I also enjoyed Bruno Mars and David Guetta. My least favorite performer was definitely Nicky Minaj. Her whole performance was just weird. 

Wearing a H&M necklace turned around

Outfit: H&M pants & blouse; Zara blazer, Aldo shoes & bag, Michael Kors watch, Rebecca Minkoff for Vogue glasses

Look out for the next giveaway coming before the end of the weekend...hint: It is red and round ;)

Love you all and thanks for always support me :)

Mary Katrantzou for Topshop SS12

At only 28 years old, Mary Katrantzou is one of London's brightest talents and the person behind these impeccable designs and vibrant prints. She has recently partnered with Topshop to create a ten-piece capsule  with stand out pieces with dresses reminiscing porcelain vase. 

These pieces features structured dresses, slim pants and tops covered with prints. Being so obsessed with prints and florals, you could imagine how I felt when I saw these Topshop pieces. I have been in love with Mary Katrantzou's creations since her spring 2011 collection. What is there not to love!

The Topshop collection is set to hit selected stores on February 17th -- prices ranging from $63-$550

Here are a glimpse of her prior collections...

I am in love with the chaotic, unique, but yet thoughtful prints and fabric. It is hard not to love her creation.

Trend Alert: Spring/Summer 2012

Are you ready for spring? It is almost time to update your closet and put away the constant grey and black and embrace florals, neons and everything that comes with spring.

1. Graphic Prints: If you are tired and bored of your usual print like polka dots, plaids e.t.c, experiment with prints such as tribal prints,  artistic, modern, futuristic or abstract prints.

2. Peplum: Short flared ruffles that sits right on the waist: classy, elegant and a little bit of flirt! It can be worn in a skirt or top form. 

3. Floral Prints: You can wear floral prints with a solid color and if you are bold enough, you can mix two similar tone prints. 

4. Neon Colors: Think neon red, yellow, green, blue.... Find out what color work best for you.



5. Pastel Colors: Pastel hues reflects a sweet, ladylike & whimsical vibe

Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

Hugs & kisses
