Top 5 Most Stylish African Male Celebrities.

Hi Everyone,
                       Today is all about the guys and I have a list of my top 5 most stylish African celebrities/ entertainers. These guys have an excess dose of swag, fashion, style and above all talent. If you are looking for a fashion/ style role model, then don't look any further than these guys. Sincerely!. I know Africa is full of many stylist celebs, no one can debate that but I chose these 5 guys they have a very diverse style and they constantly push their boundaries and step up their game. Most importantly, they seem to be living in their own "fashion world" and don't give a f***k what people thing of their style and that's what makes a Fashion Icon. lol I don't think they are icons yet but the way they are going, they will get there soon.
 Disclaimer: this list is totally subjective. So, you can leave a comment of your top 5 list.

1) Uti Nwachukwu aka Sir Uti:

         Uti is a Nigerian actor, TV presenter, model, and MC. I have been a huge fan of his since he first appeared on the big scene in 2008, Big Brother Africa 3. He was also the winner of Big Brother Africa 5. If I were to have a male style role model, it will be Uti. I have NEVER EVER seen Uti in a bad outfit. I mean NEVER!!!. This guy is a style genius. He has one of the most diverse, classy and ever changing styles, from traditional African outfits to double breasted colored suits and Cameroonian designs, Just name it, he has worn it. and the good thing about Uti is, he looks hot, stunning and effortless in everything he wears. Think I am exaggerating? Well, here you go!

She is also the founder of the cosmetics line, Aida Cosmetics and now she has released her first Single "Break It Down". I know what you are thinking, it's not a joke. She is also a DAMN good singer.

Spring / Summer 2013 Men's Suit Trends

Hey lovelies,
                   How are you enjoying the weekend? hope you are having a lot of fun. This is a very special post dedicated to all my lovely male readers. I had so many demands this week to do a post about men's fashion/ style and trends. And what better way to talk about guy's fashion than talking about the number one timeless men's style : Suits. As a guy, suits are always there for you from when you are a kid to when you die. They are your go to fashion item when you are looking for a job, going to work, attending a party, going for a classy date and even very special moments like your wedding day. So it's only fitting that I talk about the Hottest Suit trends for this season. Sincerely. I don't think there is any guy on this earth who has NEVER worn a suit. It's impossible right?
Anyway here we go guys, Hope it's helpful to you.

Three Piece Suits:

Actually these are good for cool or chilly weathers or for very formal occasion They give you a neat and tailored look even with your jacket off. To pull off this look without a matching suit vest,wear a cashmere cardigan or v-neck sweater with your suit of choice. This suit looks better with a plain or plaid shirt and solid tie.

Let's Talk Shoes 3: Wedges

Hey lovely fashionistas,

                                 How are you all doing? hope you are having a lovely week. TGIF!!. To all of you who are shoe addicts like me, I've got your back. I promised to bring you all the best shoe trends of Spring/ Summer 2013, and since I always keep to my promises, I have decided to complete the 2 remaining posts on the trends for the 4 main shoe types. If you haven't read the first to posts, here they are : Sandals & flats, Pumps. Well, i know someone people prefer Wedges to Pumps, so if you are a Wedges lover, then this is for you. I love wedges just coz they are more comfortable but truth be told pumps make you look sassier , classier and hotter. Plus it's not easy to find a really nice and eye catching wedge shoe/ sandals. Anyway, this is just may opinion oo. Everyone is entitled to theirs. ok gurls here you go! 

Sneaker Wedges:

These are absolutely my favorite type of sneakers. They have taken sneakers to a whole new level of classy and sexy. Before these shoes came out, sneakers were used mainly for sports or by men/boys. but now! these could be worn with almost everything and almost everywhere. Jeezee!! I love them.

Get yours ---> Polyvore , Aldo

The Best Cameroon Songs of All time (OLD TIMERS)

Bonjour à tous mes frères et soeurs Camerounais et Bon fête de 20 Mai. J'espere que vous amuse bien. For those who are not Cameroonians. Today is Cameroon's 53th Independence Day (National Day). So I decided to put together some of my favorite old school Cameroonian songs. Trust me it wasn't easy to narrow it down to 20 coz I had over 100 great songs on my list. I have always loved Cameroon music, from makossa to nzenge to mapoka to slows duala songs. The most beautiful thing about Cameroon Music is, even though you don't understand a word of what is being sang, you still feel, enjoy and dance to the songs. This is dedicated to all my beautifully made Cameroonians. I love you all and I couldn't have asked to be born in any other Country. Hmmm to miss out on all this great music? #HellNOOO!. Hope you enjoy what I have put together. Cameroon has was that the most talented and culturally diversed Musicians and I know our generation is getting there. Have fun dance, sing along and remember the great childhood you had. #ONE LOve

Rumta - Pam Pam Be

Put your hands up if you have been looking for this song like forever. Well thanks me later.





Marco Mbella , Kotto Bass, Tom Yoms etc  - Fleurs des Antilles 

This was one of the defining songs of my childhood. It's like the "We are the World" of Cameroon . Lovely Collaboration.

Newly Released Single by Cameroonian Artist: Melcube

A taste of glamour and class would be the best adjectives to describe the music by Melcube. As a producer, song writer and rapper, Melcube could just be the next *Puff Daddy to hit the world. Based in Cameroon, West Africa, Melcube has proven that his music is not bounded by any locality but definitely carries with it a universal appeal. It’s no secret then that he would feature on Netherland’s African Bulletin. 

Melcube recently released a new single titled MADE TO LAST which can be downloaded online by visiting his CDBaby account Here. 











Check out the Made to Last Teaser below: This guy's got talent, Mehn!!

Life in Ankara.

Hey lovelies,
                    How are you all doing? As the quote above says, "When one door closes, another door opens". 2013 didn't start on a very good footing for me. I lost two people very close to my heart but am soo happy that I can see some light at the end of the tunnel . Anyway TGIF! I bet some of you can't wait to be done with work, school etc and start enjoying the weekend. Well why don't you start enjoying this lovely post. This might give you an good idea of what to wear for any parties you have this weekend. By the way it's 20th May in 3 days. Woohoo! exciting right?. So, I got inspired this week and decided to sew one on my many designs ( mind you this is the first time I am ever attempting to sew something from start to finish), So I designed, cut and 100% sewed this lovely Ankara circle skirt. Trust me it wasn't easy but I am so excited and proud of the results. plus it fit me perfectly. Since the skirt was already colorful  I decided to pair it with a White Shirt ( who needs a short sleeve shirt when you can fold the sleeves of a long sleeve shirt?). Seriously folding the sleeves makes the outfit look EDGY which I love. Kept my jewelries simple, as usual and paired it will my Aldo clutch and Pink Heels ( Sorry it looks kinda Red in the pic). Hope you love the outfit. Let me know what you think by leaving a comment. More pictures after the cut.

Song of the Week: Blowing Ashes by GEEREIGN ft Cwitch

Sincerely I don't know why it took me this long to feature this song as the song of the week. This song is #Sick. It is definitely on my Top Five Favorite Cameroon Songs List (New Skool). As in I listen to it everyday. Everything about this song is on point  from the video quality, to the singing to the lyrics and everything in between. Blowing Ashes is Cameroon's very talented Artists GeeReign and Cwitch. Also check out GeeReign's songs here ---> No One, Da Diamond Life & Word to a wise. This guy is #DAMN Talented.

Wait oo!!! How come this song has only 1795 views? A say ehh! am I blind or what? Like Seriously! what is wrong with Cameroonians? We don't support our artists at all. It's not just fair. If it was a Nigerian/ Ghanaian song it will have over 100,000 views in one day but for Cameroon songs to have even 5000- 10000 views in one year is a tug of war. I really don't get it. I know some of you will be like well Nigeria is more populated than Cameroon. Ya I get that, that's why I didn't say one million views just even 50000 views in a year sef. Nonnnn!!! It's a disgrace, A swear.  Nobody should even complain about the video quality coz most of the recent Cameroon musics have great quality and obviously, even Greater talents. Please abeg let's support our music industry ya. Instead of you insulting our industry, try to support it and make it better. Like this is really annoying. Anyhow. A don talk ma own. Have a lovely day everyone. hope you enjoy the song as much as i do.
