My bad date experience + Fashion tips

Image
Hi babes and guys welcome to my worst date experience. The story goes thus...  I met this guy on twitter and we started talking.  We spoke for about a week until we decided to see at restaurant on a date. We picked  Circa lagos , I have never been there. I started planning my outfit and checking my wardrobe for what to wear but I had nothing, this was the period I wasn't buying clothes, shoes, make up or any beauty products .So I quickly thrifted with Snatcheddealsthrift  on Instagram. I got a red patterned velvet slip dress for the cost of N2500 only. I was on a curly fringe wig already. Lucky me at least I had something made on my head that gave me a Donna Summer  look.   Fashion Tip : Before you go out on a date, look up the place online, check the ambiance, food, interior and exterior so you can dress accordingly.  Circa Lagos Fashion Tip : if you do not have an extravagant dinner dress, a slip dress will always be perfect no matter the body type....

Be comfortable in your body

CHIEF ANYANWU - comfortable in her body  Hi, I'm Anthonia the skinny girl. This is going to be a short one. Growing up, I never knew the difference in body types, I never knew people made a big deal about body shapes and I had a way of handling people that called me skinny, or hungry because I never cared, I wasn't bothered, I wasn't phased. I didn't think I was different or wrong to be slim. In fact, I took the word “lekpa” as a compliment. ANTHONIA DOMINGO - confident in her skin I enjoyed my body and I liked my bum a lot. I saw myself as special and that no one could look like me. I have small bosoms but the confidence I got from every other part of my body overshadowed the insecurity of my little bosoms. I got into the university and I realized people have different body types and I started to feel insecure about my breasts but not my weight at least not yet. I began feeling insecure about my body when I started to compare myself to others and that right there is th...

How to achieve a simple elegant look

Image
Looking elegant is one thing I hold in high esteem.  From the way I hold my cup, to the way I cross my legs, down to the way I talk and my gestures while talking . I live for elegance . I’m siping a glass of red wine blogging this and I feel as elegant as possible with my legs crossed to the left, my shoulders broad and my head up high .

This is not a fashion blog

 How long will it take? How long will it take for you to leave your job and focus on your dreams? How long will it take for you to decide to start what you want to do? They say you go to work to feed and build your dreams, but what if you can’t even build anything from your pay. What do you do?  Creatives, athletes, ballerinas, photographers, dancers, stylists are all under-looked in society until they become famous. Especially our parents, especially our society. If you don’t have a career job, you are seen as unserious and you just want to waste your life. But I’m sorry to disappoint you I don’t want to be a banker, or a lawyer, or a nurse or a doctor or an engineer. I want to work with my imaginations. Do you know I can make money just by imagining and bringing it to life? Do you know my ideas are beautiful? Do you think I have to get all As before I’m important in society?  If you want to quit your job and you are scared because you don’t have a backup plan, it’s okay...

How blogging improved my ward robe

Random photo of my nails  This is how blogging improved my life. I used to be a lazy blogger or fashion enthusiast. I knew I loved fashion but I never put in the energy to look good at all. I was lazy to get new things but it always pained me.  When I decided to blog full time, I realized that I’m a cloth hoarder! I hoard clothes. I don’t own new clothes, trendy outfits, I had no shoes, bags, wigs, my nails were never done. I realized I was nonchalant about my look !  Random selfie  The first thing I did was to sanitize my wardrobe . All the old clothes , worn out clothes , stale clothes were all cleared out !  I started getting my makeup kit . I got just a few things for a beginner . I got ZIKEL foundation and primer , a brown eye pencil , 1 classy red lipstick , 1 beauty blender, concealer and a mascara ( I had my powder already ) .That was pretty much it. Random in a thrifted dress  I started getting clothes , thrifted ! I was replacing them with the los...
