NATIVE PANTS!

These pants got too many compliment's for me not to blog about them. I have not worn any of my native attires in over 2 years. I finally decided to experiment with one of them. I wore the native pants, but not with it's top. I wore the pants with a t-shirt and loafers. These pants got me overdosed on compliments for the day haha, but yes it did. I never thought I would get that much compliment on it. Putting all that good stuff aside, I honestly need to get a haircut ASAP. I would probably get that done today in order to prepare for the weekend ;). Sorry it took me this long to update the blog again but, I have been so busy with school work, and taking these pictures was one way to ease the stress a little bit. Feed thy eyes.







And finally my Obey hat adorned with one of the pin-back buttons my sister made for me. 


Thanks for all the comments and thank's to the new followers as well. Have an amazing weekend you all :)

AFRICAN CULTURE MEETS WESTERN CULTURE ON THE RAILWAY.

It finally arrived in the mail!! You may be wondering what it is, but it is the 'button looking things' my sister made for me. I put up a picture of them in one of my previous posts, remember? I did not tell you what I was going to use those 'button looking things' for, but I am letting the cat out of the bag in this post :) Okay they are pin-back buttons made out of Ankara (an African fabric). As you may already know, pin back buttons have a pin clip at the back of them that one uses to attach them to any fabric material. Usually pin-back buttons are used to adorn clothing; ranging from shirts, jackets, waist coats e.t.c. They are usually made out of plastic synthetic material with pictures, captions, or patterns on them, but I have not seen any made out of African fabric like these ones. This is a unique idea which is why I love them :)

I also promised in one of my previous posts that I would start taking outdoor pictures. As you would see in the pictures below I fulfilled my promise. I think this is not a bad try for the first time. It was actually fun doing this. Anyways enjoy!







The last picture simply tells you - "This is the end of my post. PEACE!" Have a good weekend you all :)

THINGS I WANT!!!

You know that feeling when you think you finally have everything you want, and then all of a sudden you see another thing you want and another thing and another thing!. It never fails! Well these are a couple of things that I am craving right now.



I don't know if I would be right if I called this a Navajo print bag, but it sure looks like one. All that matters is that it is nice, unique, and I want it! :D














I want this blazer as well. I just think it's simple and cool.
I love simplicity!















I want this animal print shoe made out of pure cow leather. Whew! I just love this shoe because of the details on it, and I think one would hardly see someone else wearing the exact same shoes.







I want this jacket maybe because the middle part looks like it is made out of jeans material. I know it is not made out of jeans material, but it really does look like it. As my friend said "It is convincing enough"





Finally, the last of all I want FOR NOW is this Blucher shoe made with a tweed pattern. I just like it because it is simple and it seems very comfortable (I may be wrong though) :)





I am so glad my sister mailed the things she made for me to me today. I would probably take pictures of/with them in my next post. Be on the look out :D

I know some of these songs are a couple of years or months old, but a good song is never too old :) If you never heard any of these songs, they are worth looking up (Google, YouTube) :D. You should like a few of them, depending on the genre of music you prefer. I would appreciate if you could share with me any song you think is nice. I am more than willing to listen. Hope you all have a wonderful weekend. :)

BUTTON LOOKING THINGS?

In my Last Post I said I had something up my sleeves with my sister. Well she just sent me a twitpic on twitter which is a sneak peek of it. I don't think you can tell exactly what I want to use these button looking things made out of African fabric (Ankara) for, but that would be unveiled in my subsequent post. Be on the look out ;) Shout out to my sister though.
