All the fine girls have
joined gang, lol. That’s the tune that keeps playing in my head as I sit
writing this post. Well it’s official. I’ve joined gang, the off-shoulder gang.
I’ve never been the type to
follow trends but this particular trend has refused to go out of style. So
yeah, I finally decided to join the off shoulder gang not only because it is a super-hot
trend among fashion bloggers (the cocopolitan, Grace Alex, Toyin with fashion, DeeMako, Sogie, Cassie Daves, The brownie etc) but also I recently decided to start
playing outside my comfort zone.
Let me explain that sentence.
In this Post, You will remember that I described my style as very simple,
laidback and conservative. I’ll like to add evolving to the list now. My style
is still evolving and right now I’m currently trying out new things.
My perception about this
trend over the years has been a bit shallow(covers face) I always believed that this trend
was only suitable for the endowed girls (big breast and all, lol) what do you
think?
Thank God my mind set has
completely changed and now I’m a believer that anyone can actually pull off
this trend.
The Off shoulder trend is the
epitome of femininity and sexy all combined in one. The trend go way back to
the 60s, it is a true classic.
I decided to pair my blue polka dots off
shoulder blouse with my DIY frayed denim jeans which I thrifted at Yaba for 500
naira. I thought the jeans looked a little too boring so I gave it a makeover
which cost 2 whole days of my time but it was totally worth it (inclusive of my
lunch break, sleep, Tv time etc.)
For the accessories, I chose
a pair of white shoes and bronze purse which I’ve had for quite some time now,
gold hopped earrings and a pair of sunglasses

shoulder trend? How did you rock yours? What do you think about my outfit? How

lack of regular posts. I’ve been struggling with my 8-5pm job and finding time
to blog but believe me it has been a workload but I truly appreciate the opportunity.
The last couple of weeks have been pretty hectic and also fun. I attended the
NFB yardsale and I’ll dishing out the deets in my next post. Thanks for reading guys
