FASHION AND STYLE

 

Often times we don't know what styles to sew with our ankara, lace and native materials. There is really no new styles anymore. What really matters is the fit on our body and how it compliments our body shapes. We all have different body shapes and the pictures included here could give you an idea on what to sew. Don't be scared to diversify fashion wise. Native materials like lace, ankara etc are being used to sew western clothes these days eg evening gowns, jumpsuit, skirts, bikini, jacket etc and they look so beautiful and smart. Don't be scared to make fashion risks, what's the worse that could happen? Above all have fun while at it!! Be creative with your style. B

DRAKE MAKES HISTORY WITH HIS MEEK MILL DISS TRACK

Yesterday, Grammy announced its nominees for next year's award and for the first time, a Diss track will be nominated for a grammy. Drake's infamous Diss ass track "back to back" was nominated for best rap performance. And that didn't go down well with Meek. Lol. See what he posted on instagram not long after the nomination was announced. Sorry Meeky!!!

PHOTOS OF THE DAY

This little angel is a survivor!!! Little Jack has been through more than most people have in their lifetime. Jack was born with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS), which means the left side of his heart didn’t function properly.

The little guy from Hartlepool, County Durham has spent half of his short life in hospital, undergoing a total of nine operations, including four open heart surgeries.

He’s also suffered one stroke and has had to be resuscitated three times.

But now, at 15 months, he’s finally home with his parents, dad Chris Stevens and mum Ashton Hodge, and is doing really well.

Terrorism is not Islam!!!

With the rampant terrorist attacks in Nigeria, especially in the northern states like Borno, Jos, Zamfara, Sokoto etc. Islam does not promote terrorism in any way. I have Muslim friends, all of whom are amazing and God fearing, I have also met other Muslims who are religion crazy with very bad attitudes, in like manner, i have met amazing, friendly, God fearing, funny Christians and the very rude, religion crazy, confused, twisted ones too.
What I'm driving at is, our religion contributes to who we are, our belief makes us a better person if it's the right one and indeed our religion is a big part of who we are, but what makes us who we are, the whole definition of who we are is our character and personality. A person can be bad irrespective of whether he has a religion or not. Religion doesn't define us wholly. We make our choices, these terrorist chose their paths. They chose to kill, no one made them do that. Every human has this thing called conscience, whether you believe in God or not, your conscience tells you when you are doing wrong or about to do wrong, you could choose to listen to that little voice in your head, and you could also choose to ignore, but when you constantly ignore that voice, it tends to stop talking and sort of dies or leave. The Christian believes it's the Holy Spirit that guides us through our day to day life and action, He talks to us and similar to our conscience, it leaves after seeing He is being ignored.
Once a man has a dead conscience he does anything without caring the consequence. These terrorists have no conscience, they have no religion, they don't believe in the God of the Christians or Muslims. No true God will every request that any man be killed for Him. Let's not associate terrorism with religion, Islam is not terrorism. Terrorists have no excuses, they even kill their supposed Islam brothers and sisters, now how do u kill people affiliated to the religion u claim commands you to kill. Shouldn't there be exception? Before you tag everyone terrorist, before you tag anyone a terrorist, before you tag a particular religion terrorists. Look around you, if everyone of them are not obeying the law that "allegedly" asks that other people of different religion be killed, then there is something wrong somewhere. The world has enough of war, death, pain, disunity and barriers. Let's not create a problem that doesn't even exist.
Let's all stand against "Terrorism" as one! . We are one body and one flesh, one nation, Nigeria. May the good Lord cleanse our land, eradicate all terrorism wherever they originate from and above all may the love of God be in our hearts for one another in Jesus name. B

FUNNY PICTURES!!!

GUYS!!!! WHAT ARE Y'ALL DOING??

I don't get why most of you, I'm referring to guys now, why you choose to take a great, loyal, faithful, God loving girl for granted. It's not even enough to cheat on her, you disrespect her also and then, finally, when she finally decided to leave, your brain resets and you start begging her back just to repeat the same cycle all over again.
There is a picture I saw online one time, it says"you don't know what you have till u lose it", but the quote was crossed and replaced with, "you know what you've always had, you just never knew that they would leave and you would lose 'em.
A good girl that gets treated like trash, lied to, cheated on, mocked and disrespected should not be judged for changing into a bad bitch. Experience makes people who they are, our environment contributes to our genotype.  But, even though I could never know how hurt and heartbroken you feel, I want you to remember that you alone are in control of how you react to your emotions. Don't let your emotion rule your sense of judgement. If someone fails to see how special you are, then maybe He wasn't the right guy.
Guys, don't worry I'm coming for the girls soon. But please, how about you treat a lady how you would want your daughter treated. And if you have feelings for someone else, tell her nicely, its better than cheating and wasting her time. Above all, remember, a good girl is worth so much more than a bad bitch.  Ladies, love a man who loves God more than he love you because when a man fears God, he would try his best not to hurt you.
Above all, remember that you cannot keep hurting good people and expect God to be okay with it.B

WAIST TRAINER PALAVER!!!

           

Nawa ooo!!! Odikwa serious sturves!!! Ehn shebi if you even want to wear waist trainer, one af do!! Which one is 4?? Ndooo aunty,sorry!! Some ladies tho?? 

      The thing with waist trainers is that they are quite uncomfortable as they compress the abdomen so that the stomach appears flat, whilst also giving the wearer an appearance of a tiny waist ie figure 8.. 

     Lots of female celebrities also wear them but you cannot achieve that figure by wearing a trainer when going out alone, indeed it curbs the intake of food as you can almost not breathe already as it is, it allows you eat just a little while it's on. But if you really want to achieve the figure you desire. First, curb your food intake and rest more to allow normal digestion and breakdown of food to occur. Furthermore, cut down or better still completely eliminate soft drinks eg. coca cola, fanta, pepsi, etc because the amount of sugar in those drinks are enough to make anyone obese, you should cut down on junks too, and fatty foods. Take more water and fruits that contain water eg watermelon, oranges, etc. You can even make it fun and blend them together to make smoothies and fruit juices. In addition, skipping meals and bad eating disorders does not help to lose weight rather you tend to gain more. More importantly, exercise often. Unfortunately, exercise has not really been adopted as a crucial part of our lifestyle by a lot of people in these parts and this should not be. 

You have to move around, sweat, burn the sugar then the fat. Thank God for the Internet, there is a wide range of different exercises available for us, it's fun and not even as boring as some of us imagine it to be. Exercise helps to do a lot in our body even besides burning fat, it is important to regulate our blood pressure, for metabolism and studies have shown that people who exercise more hardly fall to the risk of High blood pressure, cardiac arrest, etc. Let's live a healthy lifestyle.B

WHO ARE YOU??

                                 Today's  Question??

         There are sometimes that we, as humans, should sit ourselves down and try to evaluate who we really are. These are the times that we should ask ourselves questions like;"who am I? What are the things that I do? Are they good or bad? Am I good to others?
Whether we like it or not, who we are is perceived as a function of our interactions with others.
         Simply put, the first time I meet u, what I notice is your skin colour, dress, whatever you lay out there to be seen, as we go further to communicating with each other, your attitude and response gives me a subtle idea about who you really are. Now, if  you talked rude, or snubbed me, or smiled politely and answered politely too, or even behaved arrogantly, I pretty much conclude that how u reacted is who you are. What I'm getting at is, your attitude depicts who you are to people. Whether you are warm inside, or nice to the less privileged or whatever,people are more likely to judge you based on their interactions with you ie. Your attitude is you. You are your attitude.
            At the same time, there are those who wouldn't get to know you firsthand or get to interact with you closely before they conclude that you are something you know you are clearly not. It hurts, its annoying, its very frustrating too, but really, why should you care?
That's their problem, if they don't care to know you, then you should not pay attention to what their opinions are. More than half of the time,  some people don't use their senses anyway so my dear, figure out who you are, improve on your attitude towards others. If you are satisfied and recognise yourself to be a warm, loving, person then what does it matter what other think? B

RUMOUR

                               RUMOURS!!!         

         Hi guys, hope you had a lovely day, and even if you are not, well... welcome to the club.  There is this thing called "Rumour". It travels even faster than the truth itself. Rumour is basically a current, circulating story of unverified account and doubtful truth. I'm sure some of us at some point or another in our lives have heard absurd, incredible stories  and version of truth about ourselves that initiated different reactions in us.  

 Some might get angry and just think;"f**k this, I'm not explaining myself", while others will take out time to explain and might even get misconstrued still. 

          All I'm trying to say is,if you ever find yourself in such situation, if explaining is what you believe will make the problem better or go away, then do that. But, if you feel you don't owe the person an explanation or the person is just waiting to hear what you have say not because they care, but they want to use it against you. Then don't! You are responsible for every action you take, you don't owe everyone an explanation. Live your life right, it's okay to make mistakes, don't dwell in the past, don't beat yourself over something you didn't do wrong and above all don't believe everything you hear.B
