A Saturday in Lagos

It's another Saturday in the ever bubbling Lagos state , sadly i'm without a wedding or any event for that matter today (although I have 1 next week, whoop whoop ), which almost never happens, so I'm going to highlight some of the things i enjoy whenever i attend a wedding .

 





















Bella Naija is literally the no 1 place to go for beautiful pictures of events, it also provides a one stop guide to the popular an top notch wedding vendors available

last but not the least; ITEM 7 .  Depending on the quality of the event ,the refreshments served ( or not serve ) could make or break your event, in my professional opinion, any wedding without small chops is incomplete.













Hope you guys enjoyed  my "wedding party", i had  loads of fun organizing it. pls leave a comment , i'll leave you guys with the SHARP BAND :)

JULY 22

Hi guys,  July 22nd was my friend Temilola's birthday , so me & the gang sojourned to her place for a parlor party , i have to say it was definitely a journey of love , especially since her house is at the end of THE WORLD (jk but it's really far) but thanks to copious directions & the good lord , i did'nt get lost


Here are some pictures,

                                eyebrows of life
                               shine bright like a like a Diamond 
goofy gurls


I'm not really a picture person , like taking pictures is the last thing on my mind when I'm out , got these from my friends & i think they turned out fine.

Anyways, we had loads of fun, kicking it old school with musical chairs, ''Temi says'' & some choreography ( khona khona khona).
 Have a great weekend guys

A FEW OF MY FAVORITE BOOKS





Hi guys, i mentioned in my previous post that am a novel junkie. Some consider it a waste of time, but I love me a yummy juicy book and i'm positive, I'm not alone.

Today, i'm going to make a list of  some of my favorites, I hope you  can find them to read and enjoy them as much as I did, without further ado ( drum roll)

The no 1 spot goes to........

1) Bet me by Jennifer cruise.   

i read this book for the first time in SS2 (all those secondary school novel hustle) well I had it for 2 days i think and totally fell in love (hehe)

2) The Black Dagger Brotherhood series by J R Ward.
The Black Dagger Brotherhood         
I think i stumbled on this series while browsing for the twilight book collection, I have to say , this series is utterly fantastical, unreal and wrought  with exaggerations of unbelievable dimensions, the books were however fascinating ( although there were still some *rme* moments hehee)

3) Duchess series by Eloisa james.
 The Ugly Duchess

I was introduced to this book by a friend and I have to tell you, the books were a delight, 18th century English setting featuring young duchesses , sisters with a unique sense of humor and interesting vocabulary

4) Highlander series by Janet Chapman
.Highlander Series #8
Actually just finished reading these and they were quite good, my first time of reading books by this particular author and I was quite impressed with her imaginative and continuity skills.

5) Half of a Yellow sun by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie.
    
This list would be incomplete without mention of this FABULOUS book, her first book, Purple Hibiscus made me fall in love with her, her writing takes me inside the pages of her book like few authors can do, can't wait to read her latest, AMERICANAH.


And with that, I have come to the end of the list, not to say that these are the best I have read but they're definitely high up there .
Hope u enjoyed this post as much as i enjoyed writing it, please leave a comment on your views, thoughts & i would love to see your top 5's.

Much love

FIRST OF ALL



Hi hi, my name's princess Obi (yes, princess is my real name), I'm a 400 level law student in unilag with a passion for everything beautiful & glam, from weddings,  clothes, food , interior decor, small chops, to movies, poetry & books ( I'm a novel junkie)

This is not a 'fashion blog' nor a 'gossip' blog that we all hear about on twitter. I'm on here because quite  frankly i need an outlet, plus i think am a blog addict, i go on at least 10 blogs per week & I'm always on the lookout for new & interesting ones, soo it seemed like a good idea to have one.


I hope we would have loads a fun on this space, until next time,

see y'all on the flip side,
