Double Denim Equals DOUBLE fun!

Do you have a pair of denim jeans that constantly get on your nerves that you wish to get rid of? Now cool down tiger, don’t be in a hurry for I bring thee good news. Denims since they came into the fashion world have never gone out of fashion. They have earned all the extra points needed to guarantee them as ICONIC and LEGENDARY in this business of fashion.

We wear denims to almost every function imaginable. From red carpets to house warming ceremonies to beach events to clubs. These days though the true fashionista is viewed as one that can pull off the all denim look. This as I can assure you is not an easy feat. It takes lots of balls to pull off an all denim look.



Rihanna, Kim Kardashian and Kylie Jenner are some of the many celebrities to try out this trend. You too can, if you follow these few rules.

.  1. Work with your body type. Understand that different people have different body types.
   2. Feel free to throw in a ripped jean into the getup as it is very much in demand now.

3.   As a general rule, lighter shades of denim draw attention to the body parts they cover, while darker washes create a slimming effect. So you could go with a darker shade for your lower half and a lighter shade for your upper half.
4.  Stay completely away from denim accessories. Don’t end up like Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake that year.
Lol. Go for modern accessories.
5.  Whatever you do, remember to slay.


So there you have it. Who will be rocking the denim on denim look soon? YOU!!! Alright rebels, go forth and slay!

Yours Truly, The Lagos Rebel.

The Friday Everything Changed... 12/2/2016

Last Friday was definitely one to remember. I had gone out to source content for my blog and I had an amazing time.
1.       I went to the Rele Art gallery.

2.       I got bounced at The Long Bar simply because I am a lady and I was going in alone (that is a story for another day.)
3.       On coming out of the long bar, I met with Jyd (Jide) of the bond band. Now, this is a new band and they were going to perform at hotel bon voyage and because of how instantaneous I am, I went along with them to the pool section of the hotel where they were set to perform live. The band is made of about 6 men and a lady. I had granted them an interview and promised them a feature on my blog and was really looking forward to doing so. Continue for more:

Contemporary Art meets Elegance

RELE ART GALLERY
15 military road, Onikan, Victoria island Lagos.

I had been feeling rather gloomy and desperately needed something to boost my mood when I decided to visit the Rele art gallery. Initially, a friend of mine had brought the place to my attention adding that it was a beautiful place to let off steam and get lost in the maze of one’s imaginations. On Friday the 12th of February I ventured out.
The art gallery is easy to locate. I got off at Obalende and just boarded a straight bike headed for the art gallery. Once I pulled up in front of the building, something struck me. The building is painted black! It’s rather striking if you ask me. Lol. You know how these artists are mostly mad lol. It’s all respect as I am absolutely fascinated with artistes who know their stuff. Back to my adventure… I found a security seated beside the building who was kind enough to show me to the inside of the building.
I walked into the building and was completely taken aback… inside the building was WHITE! Imagine the contrast!! It was so beautiful to witness. Believe me! I just felt so good. I got the impression that the owner of the gallery liked to keep things simple BUT dramtic…

MEET THE BRAND: Nawtimilly (the multi Award winning video vixen)

We all love to watch TV. Most times we like to tune into any of the several music channels available. We love watching our favourite songs come alive before our very eyes.
What many of us don't know is the intensive collective effort that goes into creating a sound music video. There's the producer, often times there is the music video director, there is a make up crew, there are professional dancers and there are video vixens as well as friends who come out to show support to the artiste.
Recently I got one of the foremost Nigerian video vixens to grant me an interview. She is a renowned professional dancer. She has been in almost every music video. Do give it up for the one, the only,  the delectible, NAWTIMILLY!! Stick around for the interview to get the scoop on all that we talked about.

Note to self: "I AM AMAZING... still"

Today I found out that this certain guy I had been dating some 2 years ago had actually been married all the time. Imagine.!
I have been crying ever since.

I met him in December 2013 in my hometown and we kicked things off from there. He wasn't my type as I love my men tall but I thought "who height don epp?" So I listened to my friends and decided to give him a chance.

Delicious burger, affordable Experience.

Hi everyone.
I finally broke free of the devil's clutches and went out! Yaaaay!!
Prior to today, I had been craving burgers. It doesn't help that I follow several food porn accounts on twitter. So yesterday I decided to indulge in one. One place easily came to mind and that's because I have had an encounter with them on a previous occasion.
