Weekend Style
Everyone should own a pair of flared jeans/pants. They are funky, comfortable and a wardrobe staple for numerous fashionistas. They definitely give off a seventy's feel which i love, very vintage. So if you are going out with friends, going to visit family members, what ever it is, this look will be perfect for the weekend.
Have a great weekend :*

Get the look: Chic Maxi
Maxi skirts are having a major fashion moment right now and it is no
wonder just look at how chic they are! On that note, if you have been
hoping to explore new ways to wear your maxi, make sure you take tips
from our latest Style Guide muse, another darling friend, Tokunbo. By pairing her blue maxi skirt
with a sleek crop top and blazer, she has created a sophisticated ensemble
that feels really fresh. (Note: this color combination is so stylish!)
The addition of a few smart accessories; specifically a multicolored bohemian style bag and black/red flats completes the look. I
think the look is ultra chic. Inspired? check out
today’s Style Guide for the key pieces needed to recreate this look.

relaxed minimalism
relaxed minimalism by tope-229 featuring stretch jewelry
Muse - my darling friend, Chidinma
The relaxed,
minimalist look is a major trend this spring that has
been sweeping the fashion industry as seen at Stella McCartney, Elie Saab and Micheal Kors shows. For inspiration, take a look at the lovely
lady pictured above, who i spotted in Unilag [looool], she is one of my best friends. I love the way my modish muse has created a fashion-forward
look by combining a few key pieces. Her teel-green cropped pants and basic tee are both wise investments, as they are pieces you
will return to time and time again. In addition, when combined with a
few smart accessories – in this case, embellished flats and a brown
leather bag and belt – they create a modern minimalist look that is effortlessly chic
and perfect for summer. I have my version in the picture too which is equally as stylish. Take a que from this style guide and get on board the minimalist train.
