YOU'VE SEEN PLENTY STYLES! NOW HEAR MY STRINGS...*ORE MI' FEATURING THE LEGENDARY TIMI DAKOLO

Soulful Singer, KQ Tomiwa aka Kingsqueen is back with a bang as she drops a new single, "ORE MI" featuring the Legendary Timi Dakolo, one of Nigeria’s top award winning male vocalists.

Produced by ace music producer, Wilson Joel, "ORE MI" is an evergreen Love song, a beautiful fusion of Nigerian High life and R&B.
KQ Tomiwa and Timi Dakolo did a brilliant job in capturing the essence of the song and brought it to life with their soulful,playful and sincere heart to vocal expressions.

In KQ Tomiwa's words, "If you are a true lover and you are one of those who miss what love use to be in the 80’s, 90’s and perhaps 70’s, this song is for you. It is a pure expression of Friendship and Love in one, the true expression of what love and friendship should be, as you cannot separate love from friendship, there is no love without friendship and there isn’t true friendship without true undiluted love. 

If you are a hopeless/hopeful romantic, this is your song, if you are an R&B and high life music lover, this is your song; For the newlyweds, already wed, about to wed and hope to wed soon, this is your song; for every lover in every age bracket, this is your song; Young and old alike, this is your song".

Ladies and gentlemen, here is KQ Tomiwa featuring Timi Dakolo in the brand
new single ‘’ORE MI’’

JUST A LIL' AFRICAN!! CAN MAKE IT IRREGULAR

So, its just my regular corporate swagger, but the Ankara neck piece, and my statement earrings Just made it more than ordinary
It's really about making your 'regular' not quite regular, by throwing a little statement piece, and then it just gives your dressing different perspective and gets everyone complimenting your dressing 
It's probably the same ol' skirt or blouse or even shoes...but you have to find different ways to pull them off and make it new every other time...
That's what Style is all about anyways...
Just saying...Holla!!

CORPORATE SHENANIGANS


Holla!! so if you do the 9-5 Shenanigans like like some of us, then you must by all means make sure everyday swag is on Point..
I always look for different ways to spice up the same old *boring corporate Parole
After all, 80-85 percent of our time is spent work...THESE ARE THE DAYS OF OUR LIVES MEEEN!!..
And we would have to dress up in a boring manner everyday? God forbid oooo
So I try to make it fun and crazy as much as possible!!!
I love variety, I love different, and as I don't have that much clothes... then by all means, I must get creative
Sometimes I spend my whole evening thinking of how I'm going to recycle the same whole stuff...
And at the end of the day I come out smiling, like I am up there...

Hope you feel inspired!!..

NAIJA FRIDAY GROOVE

Ankara (Nigerian prints) is mostly my Friday groove, as it's naturally a thing in this part of the world
We go Native or ethnic on Fridays..Fridays are usually the dress down day for people in the corporate world..So Fridays are interesting as you see lots of folk pull out their creative hat via their special ethnic attires...it's always a thing to just watch...
So I decided to Jaz up my ethnic wear with some urban streaks..
My nice multicolored shoes..my pretty red hat...and my turn up slightly faded brown jeans




Not forgetting my Teal green bangles
So that was it on my Style&Strings Friday turn-up....

I'm sure y'all are wondering, whats up with her Strings though...not to worry, keep your fingers crossed..something Great is going to hit on the strings segment soon enough....

See you soon and again..

Holla!!

I'VE GOT SUNSHINE!!!

 So I got to the office this Particular Friday...and My Colleague Obinna goes..Girl! you wearing sneaks on ankara!!! men! Only you can do that...and as usual , I told him, that's wassup homie!!
 Precisely what fashion means to me...The surprise Factor...
 The Unusual's is what makes STYLE! style really...
 Style is not a million nice dresses..in your wardrobe, you could have tons of clothes and zero style,
There are no rules..You determine the pace and you dictate the flow
 Style is basically self expression outwardly...what you feel on the inside, must reflect in your style
So go ahead! show us who you truly are. Never be afraid to express your own personal  style, even the weirdest ideas, dare to interpret it nicely, be not boxed by rules, for there in lies true creativity

And always remember, STYLEisnotamilliondresses.....It's the you within waiting to be free!!..
