Laid Back

My last day in Abuja was for ultimate chilling because I'd been wrung like a dishcloth the previous days.

As a result of my night at PLAY I was literally dead to the world until my friend, blogger and designer Chichi of Blazyfashion came over to drag my lazy ass out of bed.

Chichi


I spent the rest of the day out by the pool

H&M maxi dress; ASOS drop earrings; ASOS flats; Prada Baroque sunglasses

I LOVE these ASOS earrings, even though I think they're a tad ratchet and if anybody got tangled up in them by mistake it could rip out my earlobes.

After a day of supreme laziness I headed out to meet friends at a bar called Beer Barn in Wuse

I saw my 2012 bride, Neks!

She moved to Abuja at the beginning of the year and I hadn't seen her since

My Neks' work chic was giving me life, LOVE!

We went on to a house party after Beer Barn which I didn't stay at long and was promptly tucked in before midnight

I had a blast in Abuja and it was so gratifying to see that if I ever had to leave Lagos I already had a ready-made circle in the capital.

Love and light xx

Virgos Lounge Aggy - 3 Ways

I was in Abuja the majority of last week for work and though I didn't see the sunlight for the first 3 days because of all I had to do, I had at least a day to recuperate before heading back to Lagos.

I haven't been in Abuja properly since I was in Law School and I was so excited to be there I felt like I'd left the country.

My work ended proper on Thursday and everybody knows Thursday nights in Abuja belong to PLAY so I headed down there to BYOB with the best of them.

Pulled out my old faithful, the Virgos Lounge Aggy blazer. I've worn it twice since I got it and it still remains a show stopper whenever its pulled out.

Virgos Lounge Aggy jacket; H&M tank dress; Gucci hightop sneakers

I'd spent most of my week in tight AF shift dresses and heels and my feet were begging for comfort so I decided to indulge them and rock sneakers.

I love the "laid-backness" of the sneakers juxtaposed against the full on glam blazer.

Rocked out at PLAY with my friend Doyin and her husband...

My cousin Charles, who owns PLAY and my brother from another mother, Achike

So I decided to compare this Aggy look with the other two times I've worn it, I think my favourite is the middle photo where I wore it with the sheer maxi skirt.

Where do you guys think I wore it best?

Love and light xx

This Week I'm Loving.......

.........Edward & Mary-Jane Nwakuche

Edward and MJ are without a doubt Abuja's most stylish couple and my personal favourites. They are a super co-ordinated, entrepreneurial, fashionable machine and I'm soooo here for them.

They are both under 30 but their growing empire spans fashion, photography and real estate.

They started with a store called Caramel His & Hers in Enugu back in 2006, before they were even married and they've now expanded to two stores and the hottest photography outfit in Abuja, Caramel Photos.

They have an absolutely adorbs son called Jayden, who I've mentioned before here as being one of the most fashionable kids I've seen. His parents swag the child out like crazy, it is so beautiful to see.

Have to confess here that I'm probably the largest curator of Jayden's photos outside of his family. Once his parents put up a picture of him I save it right quick.

No time.

Edward is a graduate of the London School of Photography and is currently a super in-demand photog. His resume spans weddings, photo-shoots, pre-wedding shots, fashion photography, family and personal photos and even a traditional coronation ceremony.

See examples of his work below

Edward and MJ are so achingly cool they were even on the cover of Know Magazine's Valentine edition.

So yeah get familiar, for affordable, amazing photos, get in touch;
