Fashion DONTS 5

21. Shorts gone wrong.
When it doesn't fit , it DOESN'T FIT!




22. A bad hair day is a big fashion don't. Wear a hairstyle that's nice and suits you.


23. When nails are too long, they make you look more crazy than stylish.
Everything should be done in moderation


34. Ladies, do dress age appropriate. Aging gracefully is a blessing, revel in it.
Even Madonna can not pull off dressing age inappropriate.

35. The same goes for your daughters. They would grow up soon enough.
Dressing them in inappropriate clothes makes them a target.

Babe for life

She makes a line of ready to wear patched ankara dresses.I just loooove her stuff.

She is another favourite of mine. She makes a line of ready to wear as well as couture pieces. She has participated in alot of fashion shows both in Nigeria and internationally.

Her pieces include casual, formal and evening dresses, tops, skirts, pants, kaftans, boubous and laptop bags for ladies and for men, traditional tunic and pants (buba and sokoto) and biker jackets.
