OUTFIT POST: BLUE SHEER

 Holla dolls, 

I hope you all had a wonderful week and enjoying your weekend. So I want to start by saying that I had a somewhat ok week because I was able to go to Toronto Fashion night out. Omg I wish I could do a video about my experience because I have so much to say about the night. You might be thinking "she had a wonderful night " WRONG. Maybe depending on where you went  your night ended up being ok but I went to Holt Renfrew and I really had higher expectations about their party and for me it was just Blaaaaaa. You know what ? the bottom line is I had in my head that I will seeing all these celebs and have some cocktails here and there but the only cocktail  I got was some citrus juice from H&M  and diet coke from Coca Cola(LOL).  For a few months now I have thinking about making videos. I want to talk about my wigs , natural hair, fashion and more . If you have any questions for me you can just leave it in the comment box or shoot me an email.... So did any of you attend  FNO in your city ?What was your experience like?

Today my  look is effortless to say the least. My hair was a bit messy so I used a turban to cover it . Blue is one of my favorite colors ,so when I saw this sheer blue shirt  I had to have it . I got to say Forever 21 plus is heaven for a plus size girl on a budget.

OUTFIT POST: KENTE INSPIRED SHORTS

 Happy Tuesday dolls, 
I have been officially instagramed if thats actually a word. Instagram is the best thing after sliced bread. I am so loving the pics I am taking with this app. My skin looks amazing in these pics if only it was the real deal.  I got this kente inspired fabric during my trip  to Mali a few months ago.  I bought enough fabric to make myself  a skirt and these shorts. As you can tell I cannot wait for the warm weather.The photos were taken by my little sister who was visiting from NYC. Anyways I wish all a happy and great week  and don't forget to follow me on instagram @ciaa. More pics below

OUTFIT POST : THE CECE DRESS

african fashion dresses
The weather was just beautiful the last couple of days in Toronto. I won this dress from a giveaway a while back but never got the chance to wear it. Its from Jessique designs  maybe you might remember my post about their line here.  The dress fitted beautifully and because it was  little cold I threw in my little  blue Cobalt blazer. Oh! I almost forgot to mention my Fulani earrings. The first thing I did when I went back home last month was to get myself 3 sets of Fulani earrings ( small , medium, and big). Call me crazy but I really love me some earrings.  I thought this was also a great way to wear you little african print dress to work. To be a little safe you can use a black blazer instead of blue. Here is what i am wearing.

OUTFIT POST: NEW HAIR IAM ALL SMILE !

Salut tout le monde,
I just finished doing my hair and I am all smiles. I have not done my braids this small since I think 2001 or something.  For me these are really tiny but the good thing about it is  that it only took 3 hours to finish it. Yes that is a dream !!!!!. The two women that did my hair were so fast I  could not believe it when they told me my hair was finished.  Here is what I am wearing

OUTFIT POST: LAST SUMMER




Summer is the best time to wear my African outfits. I don't like wearing prints from head to toes unless its a dress. Its best to mix it with something else. This skirt comes with a top but I never where them together. I can't recall exactly where I was going this day but Snapping the pics was really fun . I was wearing
