SHE STOLE MY MAN!!

Posted by mickung
I never knew who he was till he appeared on my screen, flashing a taut body adorned with tattoos that made me drool. My eyes trailed from his head down to where the jeans he wore met the waist and covered the rest of his masculinity.
Our eyes locked for a second ,he tore them away, and continued singing the song that made me wanna move my stiff body and fling my braids from side to side. Who could move like jagger? He told me he could.
I slept with thoughts of him circling my head... we met in my dream and he did stuff I only thought happens in Fashion Heaven. We played dress-up, rolled in the sand, laughed out loud and talked about our future.
*SCRATCH* Reality hurts... Anne Vyalitsyna has stolen my man,Adam Levine. (well, in my head! But who cares!).  Rubbing it in my face in an editorial in Vogue Russia, November 2011 issue, the 2 lovebirds couldn’t get enough of each other. Further research showed they are engaged. Oh no… The dude I yearn for!
*sighs*       

That tattoo had better be marked on with a blackboard marker! LOL



THE COVER!




They are so cute though!
I hope she makes Adam Levine happy! He deserves it.
LOL

JULIA SARR JAMOIS!!!

Posted by mickung
I never do random posts except I adore the person far too much to keep it limited to 140 characters on twitter.

Okay... here goes..!

I LOVE JULIA SARR JAMOIS.

I can’t begin to explain my love for her… she is such a badass! (Pardon my language, lovers)
I have several questions for her when I finally meet her, but these ones keep popping up every time.

*I mean…why is she so cool?? I know I am cool too (hey, gotta toot my own horn too. LOL) but WHY IS SHE SO COOL.??
*Why is her Afro so lush? Her Afro gives me life. It’s really to miss the Afro and the eye-catching outfits she wears.
*Does she make money being fashion editor of Wonderland? I know making money ain’t easy, so how does she stay steady being so chic?
*Why does she have such fabulous vintage items? I know there are lotsa vintage stuff everywhere... But why is it that hers are the coolest?









*SIGHS*

I so wanna be like her.

THE BIRTH OF ANDROGYNY.

Posted by mickung



Le smoking, 1975  


This is where it all began. . .
Perfect “feminine meet masculine” look.

Helmut Newton’s iconic image of YSL’s Le smoking; a model with slicked-back hair, cigarette clutched casually in hand. AWESOME!

THROW-BACK;- KOSIBAH.!

Life is tough . . . really tough! No profession is easy!
But as far you love what you do . . . you will always do it with a smile on your face.

DOING WHAT I LOVE DOING. . .




I SWEAR... I AM NOT SHORT! SHE IS JUST TOO TALL.! LOL.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE FASHION EVENT.!
Designers' Muse is a fashion accessories store that retails all tailoring supplies such as, fabrics, trimmings, buttons, appliqués, zippers, mannequins, dress forms, garment racks and steamer, shop fittings and display items. 
They are having a show to launch our latest collection of fabrics and other accessories on the 4th of September, 2011 @ Robert's café, off Idowu Martins Victoria Island.
If you are an upcoming designer . . . this will be the best avenue to go through and shop for fabrics and what-nots.

See y’all there.

In my next life, I will like to be a photographer or come out as a dark-skinned girl. Like extremely DARK!!
When I was younger, it felt good to call any misbehaving friend who is dark-skinned, ”Blackie”. Now I see pictures of black girls, I just wanna grab a chair... run outside and sit under the sun for hours.
*sighs*
Don’t get me wrong. . . I am not extremely light-skinned, but I really wanna be so dark like these girls.
THEY ARE SO FIERCE! 







EVEN WITH THE TRIBAL MARK. *SWOONS*






FIERCE!!!


I am No photography expert. . . but is it possible that their skin colour was enhanced through photo editing.???
*scratches head*
Oh well. . .

They say an idle mind is the devil’s workshop. . . Add a brand new Camera and Picasa, the rest is history.
THAT IS THE STORY OF MY LIFE!
I am practically on Holiday. . . No school. . . Nothing to do except reply emails, write articles and rest to replenish my creative bank.
Whenever I get completely bored, I just bring out my camera and start taking pictures.
Picasa is so much Fun . . . who woulda “Thunk” that!
                                                                                               
I took these black and white portrait pictures of myself and decided to share with y’all. J

….. I will probably be on an island by now, drinking an apple martini while soaking up the sun in these JUNGLE GURL swimsuits.
*SIGHS*
But here I am, watching fashion films, reading fashion e-books while completing my FancyHub articles at 12;35am.
I WANNA BE SUCCESSFUL… SO FREAKING BAD! 


My friend, Tobbie Maguire takes awesome event photographs. What sets him apart is his personal eye and angle for capturing the pictures. Always open to capture the little details like hand movements, hair, smile and even little fashion details like a fashion blogger.

I wasn’t at the Psquare album launch because I gave up going for musical concerts, when I stood for nothing less than 7 hours at a musical award, in Louboutins than hurt my feet more than a piercing needle. If it’s not a Florence and the machine concert... NO SIR, count me out!
Oh well, Tobbie was there and he captured the people on the red carpet as well as the little fashion details, like the pro that he is.





I don’t know this lady, but I wanna be her best friend. Her sheer dress and haircut gives her an A+ in my style book. I don’t know whether its my new love for anything sheer, or the fact that she rocked it so gracefully. AMAZING.!




I love her earrings.. I need to get myself something like this.





LOVE THE FEMI KUTI TSHIRT.




HER HAIRSTYLE IS SO COOL. LOVE THE COLOUR OF HER PANTS.

COLOUR ME MALE.


I love the fact that Men are now showcasing their love for colour in their outfits. A man who isn’t afraid of colour deserves an applaud and a full hug. #TeamDeathToSideHugs
These men came out in different shades of colour and still exude masculinity.




NUDE AND ROCK-CHIC.


I Love her combination of Brownish polka dot blouse and Brown tote. The jeans give the whole outfit a twist and an edge.




BUCKLE LOVE.

Need I say more.?




TSHIRT SMILE.

This Tshirt put a smile on my face... We all know what “HAKUNA MATATA” means.
*Now humming*



FABULOUS.!! *PANTING




LOVE THE NECKPIECE AND HER HAIR.





NECK PORN.

Nothing makes me giddy with excitement, than an awesome statement-making neckpiece. Watch as this women wow you with different shape and sizes of neckpiece.
