Fashion Victims #yaiks#

Okay ladies, I've seen this one, two many times now my eyes hurt! Not unless you are Lady gaga, Nicki Minaj or Rihanna, please DO NOT TRY THIS ON THE STREETS all in the mane of fashion!

Exposed Bra Strap

Bra straps peeking out of your top or dresses are a hug turn-off and not in anyway fashionable. Instead, invest in racer back or strapless bra to support you gurls. Even wearing a fancy strap isn't any better. There's a reason they are called under-wears you know!

Wrong Under-garment

Come on! a white bra underneath a black see through? you've gotta be kidding me! Please note, if you must wear a see through, make sure you get a seamless under-garment  very close to your skin color -  for instance, if your light skinned, opt for a nude color under-garment and if you are dark skinned go for something darker.

Socks + Sandals

Haaaaha!!! Am so glad we have something for the guys here. Ogini? Abeg, why do my ever loving Nigerian guys do this? I can't seem to understand the rationale! Even this is totally frowned upon by the snowy nations let alone our scotching Nigeria here. Tip: If you must wear socks, pls pls n pls put your dahm sneakers or shoes on! Taaaaaaaahhhhh!!!!! That leg hair tho *eyes rolling*

Inappropriate pants

I understand this could be a little tricky to pull off. I personally have this same issue with pants especially denim. Am 5'11 and i don't ever seem to get jeans that goes all the way below my ankle - which is very frustrating by the way. What i usually do is go for the skinny design which is more fitted on the ankle rather than bell bottoms. And if i have to wear bell bottoms , i get them loosen at the bottom and properly tailored. Point is, if its not three-quarters or ankle fitted jeans, Please don't wear them.

No underwear *atall*

I really hate to do this Tiwa but the outfit during your birthday/surprise engagement was NO NO. c'mon not even a strapless bra? call me old fashioned for all i care but i will NEVER EVER find this fashionable. Hello, undergarments were designed for a reason. Even if you have to wear anything plunging/see through (which BTW i do not have a problem with, use a  goddam TAPE) and if you are so unforgettable with panties wear a C-string. So, not unless your are modelling for playboy  its never tasteful to have your 'girls or hoohaa'' flashing into peoples faces.

The ultimate Visible Panty Lines (VPL)

Yeah, the all time classic. Like how annoying and eye aching is this image? i mean, can a blunder get any worse than  this? There is just no excuse for stepping out of your house knowing you have on a trouser, dress or skirt just too tight. Its quite a disturbing picture to say the least if not plain offensive. If for any reason you must wear anything 'overly' tight (which i see no reason for except leggings), please wear a seamless pantie, C-string or body suit.

Over/too tight clothing

In as much as its difficult for us 'especially ladies' to admit that we are outgrown some of our favorite clothing, no one wants to see you looking like a stuffed muffin inside them either. Its time to face reality and embrace your age and body. There's a huge difference between form-fitting and overly-tight! Miss Uche jumbo is sooo amazingly beautiful (with a hot hubby), but WTH were you or your stylist thinking on this dress?

Exposed underwear

Even Cisco didn't have this sorts picture in mind when he sang 'thong-song'. If you must wear a low rise skirt or pants, go for a mid/lower rise thong or better still wear a longer top/shirts. If you are not on the beach, thong flashing isn't in ways attractive, trust me!

Boob explosion

MUNAAAAAAAAA!!!! why?????????? Not unless you are cossy orjiakor, this so not allowed! I mean, its okay to flash a little bit of cleavage occasionally but the whole dahm thang ain't just cool atall. Remember, less is always more!

Friends, fashion is meant to worn and not the other way around, It evolves everyday and trust me when i say you've gotta move with it. Whatever you do or wear, always keep in mind that moderation is key  Fashion will always fade but style never does! What you see Rihanna or Lady gaga wear on stage doesn't necessarily mean it should be worn as same on the streets - because a lot of people do it doesn't make it okay. So, work on defining your style and ultimately have fun with it!

Love,
SolaDunn.
