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!

How is everyone doing? I have been battling cold, sore throat and a slight fever since Friday. I was sneezing so hard on Friday it felt like I was going to sneeze out my brains. :)  I didn't want the cold to get the best of me, so decided to grab some dinner and drinks with friends/coworkers Tracey & Chaun at the Cheesecake Factory.

On Saturday, though I was weak and felt sick, I attended a friend's wedding, which was really fun. I was able to catch up with friends--lots of laughs and jokes. The whole event was fun. I can't wait to post the outfit I made from the wedding material or "aso-ebi" as we call it.

Sunday, I relaxed and tried to make some food before squeezing in some studying. All weekend, I consumed so much green tea and lemon, which has helped quite a bit. Right now, my nose feels  congested and I have a coarse voice due to the cold.

Outfit: H&M pants, scarf and cape; Aldo shoes & bag; Michael Kors watch; Lipstick is a mix of MAC Cyber & Ruby Woo

Don't forget to follow me on Twitter & Facebook because I post and tweet pictures of things that I love, trends, or whereabouts.
