Okay guys, this is a Sunday and thou shalt not curse but really, i want you to caption every individual in this picture. Kelly Rowland put this up on her Facebook page with the title "Me and Beyonce and Michelle  viewing Beyonce's " Grown Woman " video" . I feel the image is really funny cos Beyonce looks super excited, Kelly looks like 'B*#!h please, yeah right' and Michelle looks kinda left out, can she even see from there? Lol! Just for fun, let's read your creative captions!

Image 1 of DRESS WITH TWO-TONE PIPING from Zara

I was a huge fan of this dress on 'Annie Macaulay' when she wore it at the MTV party a while ago. The only area's i felt she could have done better was the hair and undergarment department, but regardless she looked amazing. Guess what, i found her blue dress! Its by Zara and its now available at just $40 (N6,400) here. Our naija celebs can like to shop affordable now, don't they *winks*

The Round/Diamond shaped woman......you are beautiful!




So this is going to be my last article on women body types. I've written extensively on the pear shaped, inverted triangle, hourglass and rectangle shaped women - which are the most common types, if by the end of this  post, you can't identify with any of the body types, 'my hand no dey abeg'. I decided to write on this because here in Nigeria, it is quite a common body type with women and i felt people in this category could need a bit of help (clothing wise).

Infidelity and second chances according to Jada Pinkett Smith!

Khloe Kardashian Celebrates 29th birthday!




Na wa o! i was so looking forward to my favorite (and 'only married') Kardashian sister's birthday but unfortunately 'time difference' played a fast one on me. Her birthday was actually 27th but i guess its better late than never. Happy birthday Khloe Odom! Let me know, why you love Khloe? For me, i think shes the most original of the sisters - i saw a particular episode of their reality show where she emphatically told her family 'she was now an Odom and no longer a Kardashian', i felt that was quite brave of her. So, why do you love Khloe? 


Miley Cyrus prefers no PANTS!




Like seriously Miley, chilax already! Because you were named the sexiest woman alive doesn't give you the right to unleash it on us na. Lol! She was spotted on 4 different occasions last week - all without her pants on, yeah PANTLESS. I don't know what to say about her fashion anymore - sexy, trashy  edgy ............ What do you think or rather, can you give her a piece of advice? More pictures below.

First look of Kanye West as a Papa!

May God in his mercies grant us all greater successes in future - personal and professional, In Jesus name. I was super tired when i got in last night so i tweeted this pic where i wore a red polka dotted top by asos and print skirt from South Africa to have some drinks with the family.

How high can you go.....in HEELS!




Am 5"11 tall but i wear as high as 6" 'occasionally' tho (which makes me about 6.5"), trust me - i walk like a wounded camel when ever i do, Lol! so i try to keep my shoes not more than 5" and they must be platforms. However, we've see A-listers like Eva Longoria and Kim Kardashian pull off as high as 7-7.5" which i think is just crazy.  So i wanna know, how far have you gone when it comes to wearing heels considering safety and comfort? BTW, those red pumps are the real deal *winks*

Lets get catty........with LINERS!




Also known as winged liners, catty eye is a look every woman should try. Old school you might say, not until you read this post fully. As overstated as it may look, it is actually very easy to conquer. Originally worn by the arabs, the catty eye has emerged over the years to be one of make-ups most dramatic way of accentuating the eye. It is such a versatile look that can be worn to work, school, offices and even red carpets. Without a video tutorial, i'll do my best to explain how to master the art.

Introducing baby North West!




Lol! saw this yesterday and thought i would give you a good laugh. Happy weekend friends! This is what Kim and Kanye's baby is supposed to look like (for their mind) *winks*
