Hi Everyone!How are you doing? I have missed u guys, I don't know how I am ever going to quit blogging because whenever I haven't blogged in a while, I feel so guilty!! *puppy eyes*
So what have you been up to??? The last couple of weeks have been really eventful for me but in a good way, I have been making progress with a couple of projects that I am working on be it in or outside the office so I'm grateful! Anyways, there is sooo much that I want to blog about I'll just have to take it day by day since my writing skills are back Thank God......

Hi lovely people of God/Allah! how have you been this week sexiest followers and readers by the way You know you are on to something when your first thoughts are, …”OMG! I have to have that dress/PANTS,SHOES,OR SUIT!!!” I stumbled upon H&M's spring/summer collection during my usual rounds at some fashion website which sadly i cant remember the name nKt!! and was smitten by the stunning A- line 4 ply maxi clothes. I think they cut to the chase; minimalistic and feminine ( if your a lady) and masculine (if your a gentleman). I love the cuts with bits of skin peeking which keeps the dress sexy but still very elegant for the ladies I MUST SAY

HEEEYYYYY!! Everyone, How is it going? Thanks to everyone that left their suggestions and feedback on CHULALA FASHIONS in the last post. Its much appreciated! How was your week though? My week has been crazy so far. Numerous meetings, traveling, hours spent in traffic plus I have a cold and its in the last week of December. Not fun. Anyway, as always, I like to focus on the sunny side of things so I feel happy and blessed.

I tell people that you cannot be sensitive or lack self-confidence if your from Kenya. Many people are very comfortable with giving you unsolicited opinions and advice. how do you handle it? I need some tips.....

Haallloooooooo!!!! fashion-ed people today I'll quickly write that my week started off very busy, work plus the gym which im back at to get that "the situations Body" ( jersey shore ) and then I have a new gym recruit, my friend who moved from his gym to mine because he needs the motivation so I have been trying to increase my work outs so he can join in with me at a great momentum and so far so good! For the last two days I have been having this silly dull ache in my leg, arms and shoulder which is quite annoying as it doesn't hurt really but it's there! NkT! Then today I got my first blisters ever! i mean ever ever in my life ever since i was born and no im not a SISSY *i can hear y'all shouting that*

Hallo awesome people or fashion freaks!! he-he!! hows your last week to 31st of December coming along? anyhu I’m not sure where to start…because this blog has formed such a huge part of my life that i must admit over the past 3+ months From job to job, From city to city, From makeup to breakup. You guys have been there with me on CHULALA FASHIONS Thank you soooo much!!! From all the comments to the advice to the insults and discrimination lol!!…Its been amazing!!! now come close everyone *HUGE GROUP HUG*

I have started a new chapter in the CHUALALA FASHIONS story and its sadly enough still under construction I really hope

Hey guys, so today I dug out one of my "Zuby Numbers", remember my post about my tailor in Nigeria?? , Well if you dont dont worry ill be reviewing it again soon, the outfit is one of the numerous things Zuby has made for me... A couple of years ago, I discovered this Ankara store in Lagos called "DA Viva", it stocks really pretty and vibrant Ankara fabrics... On my first visit it felt like I was in a candy/shush/weed store, it was sooo hard to choose... I went back with my mama (huge Ankara/adire lover), I knew she'd love it too and I was sooo right... This fabric is one of the ones I copped from DA Viva and it wasn't long before it made its way to Zuby's shop.

Hey there, you fabulous folks of the internet! Buckle up and get ready for a wild ride through the quirks and mysteries of life. Today, we're diving into the enchanting world of "Never Trust A Woman Who..." – and let me tell you, it's going to be a rollercoaster of laughs and surprises.

In the stillness of the night, I find myself haunted by memories of you. Memories that grip my heart and squeeze, refusing to let go. I don't know why this ache persists, but it's as real as the air I breathe. It's not just the image of your warm smile or the taste of your tender kisses that lingers in my mind, though they too were magical.

Come check-out the fashion of the awesome pictures... enjoy and feel free to comment or follow,

But wait, hold your fashion horses, because today we're taking a poetic detour. Buckle up for a tale about my newfound HATER who's taken it upon themselves to make me "famous" in their own special way. cue sarcastic drumroll.....

Heeeey!! loveely Is it really okay for young children to be models?
Should a five-year-old girl walk down the catwalk in a bikini?
Of course they are cute, and sure they have fun.
At leas we think so.But do they really have fun, or is it just their parents who try to fullfill their own failed dreams, by putting their kids on runways and beauty contests?
Is it the right thing to to to teach young children that its all about how you look?
Should kids have make up?

Hallo lovelly fashion-ed people I also want to tell you guys that as tired as I am (mentally!!), I have been meaning to update my blog with some issues that have been bothering me about the world and people in general, but because I do not want to do it hurriedly I will take my time. I do want to thank you guys who have been commenting faithfully on my blog I love reading your comments, and it makes me happy to know we have similar goals, and a similar drive in our everyday lives. However
mundane everyday activities and mantras maybe we should write about them ,

Heyyy!!! my people so This morning on twitter, a dumb twerp called ass liker(@Thighsmeller) out of the blue just called me a man-hoe because some friend of his told him that i kinda shagged his girlfriend and sister to and that im known all over the town of my ill behaviors which i so never knew off until he told me that my God!!. Actually, he misspelled it and wrote “man houre”. Aside from his inability to spell, the idiot thought he was offending me and may have been surprised as I went on to engage him on his ignorance. It was very clear that he did not know what the word means and was using the word just like some people use the word ‘nigger’ to denigrate black folks. how SADD!! NKT!!

Hey lovely people of CHULALA FASHIONS So I left London on Friday morning feeling physically refreshed but there were still some cobwebs in my head. Did I tell you about someone called Liz? Of course I did and many of you weren't too pleased. Anyway, newsflash: she was more than a passing cloud! I'd been thinking a lot about her that's why we agreed with George (my best pal ever since we got caught stealing fried chicken at some party) that we take some time apart. Let me tell you nowhere like 39000 feet up in the privacy of a Club World pod to collect one's thoughts. But by the time BA 0065 landed in Lagos Nigeria I was still not clear in my mind what I wanted to do or who I wanted to be with.

Helluurrr! Madea's voice chulala people! Welcome to my rollercoaster of emotions, love, and laughs! So, if you've been following my blog, waiting every day for something new, or just wondering what crazy shenanigans I'm up to, I appreciate you, THANKS!

wear women’s clothing brand that combines the cultural identity of African prints with the stylish influence of contemporary London. The designer Janice Morrison creates a collection with close attention to detail, resulting in bold, well-defined feminine designs.

I am so sorry that I have been away for a while now ( actually coming to think of it i'm not sorry coz blogging has to be fun not an assignment ) - life took a long and winding turn down many dark and dismal roads, but what goes down must come up - so here I am again! *SCREAMING*
We have just returned from a much needed rest in Italy, me and my big sister well it was a rest for me and part business for my sister! I wanted to share my findings with you:
Our first impressions of Italy are that it is the Italian version of Disneyland, without the rides.
In Italian land, the first thing that strikes you is the cleanliness.

So today i'm so sad kinda having one of those boring days when you u just look at everything differently and it just makes you unhappy. *sad face* when the shower is too cold because the heater has refused or acting up... when the coffee is too sugary or sour...
when the sun is shining too bright and burning into your scalp.... When the music in the lift/elevator is playing too loudly....when the weather feels so polluted and disgustingly congested....When everyone who passes you has to shove you or smell very weirdly...
Today I sob inside. I look at my past and where am from.
And it's been a journey.gosh A JOURNEY

Most people can readily discuss the exquisite craftsmanship of Giorgio Armani's suits or the timeless tailoring of Calvin Klein. However, when asked to name a Black male designer, some individuals struggle to identify anyone beyond urban hip-hop labels like Rocawear or Sean John. Yet, it's crucial to recognize that there are talented Black designers making significant contributions to the fashion industry.

From 2007 until his recent dismissal, Patrick Robinson served as The Gap's Executive Vice President of Design, making significant strides in the fashion world as a Black designer.

In 2010, an ambitious vision was born - to propel Nairobi's fashion retail industry to new heights, while simultaneously empowering working Kenyans with access to the latest trends and products. Thus, the Nairobi Fashion Market (NFM) emerged as a dynamic platform, set to revolutionize the city's fashion landscape.

Since its inaugural event in November 2011, NFM has garnered widespread acclaim from all quarters of the industry and beyond. A beacon of creativity and innovation, NFM has seamlessly connected retailers, designers, shoppers, and visitors, creating a vibrant ecosystem that celebrates style and artistry.

Get ready to be mesmerized by the captivating world of Kenyan designer John Kaveke, who took London Fashion Week 2011 by storm at the opulent Charing Cross Hotel. His men's collection wowed the audience with a vibrant display of colors and an infusion of cultural diversity. Let's delve into the fashion extravaganza that left everyone in awe!

Heeellllluuuuurrrrrr Madea's voice ... Whooosah!! Beautiful and handsome readers, today, we're taking a break from the runway and high-fashion clothes to delve into something that'll make your heart skip a beat. Ladies, lads, chix, and women, pay attention! 🌟💁‍♀️🕺

Now, we all know jewelry is a serious obsession, right? I mean, it's the stuff that makes us men bend over backward just to see that dazzling smile when we gift our beloved ladies with silver, gold, rocks, birthstones (my girlfriend has them all, find yours, hehe), beads, and the whole shebang! 💍💖

Meet the one and only Achie Otigo, a designer extraordinaire and my partner-in-fashion-crime! Brace yourselves, people, because her latest jewelry collection is so drop-dead fabulous, it'll make you say, "I heart every piece in this collection, literally!"

Picture this: statement pieces that'll leave jaws on the floor, crafted with the sassiest combo of bamboo, beads, and sequins. I know, I know, you're already hooked, but hold on, it gets better!

And guess what?

Are you ready to kick it up a notch in the fashion game while making a meaningful impact? Meet Heel The World (HTW), not your ordinary shoe company. Oh no, they are a luxury, bespoke shoe line with a twist that will tickle your fancy and warm your heart.

HTW isn't just about chic footwear; they're on a mission to uplift underprivileged Ghanaian shoemakers and show the world what they're made of. Picture this: the finest Italian leathers, skillfully crafted by the talented artisans of Ghana. Yes, you read that right, European standards might just have some serious competition!

So at times, we would like to think that after hitting "Publish post" on a new post, the seas will part, angels will sing with their cherry voices, and Moses will lead followers straight into the post, starting a flood of comments or customers rushing into our shopping carts (if you own a product blog). But that’s obviously not going to happen that fast.

One thing I've come to learn about blogging is that it requires time investment and energy – you constantly have to be publishing your original content and good stuff to please your followers.
