Peacock dress


You know when people say "The dress does all the talking"; I think this is one of those dresses. Although, I think when people use that phrase they mean it in a sexual way, no? Nevertheless, so vibrant a dress. Bursting with colours in a very earthy manner because of the natural hues and tones. You now, the rusty oranges, yellows, greens, blues- All representing some part of nature or the other. e.g water, sun, plants.). I also love the kind of majestic feeling it has to it. Maybe its because it has something to do with peacocks. But I felt like a much more important person than I actually am whilst I was wearing it. The Irony is that the dress is from Primark. Not so majestic now eh. ha!


More photos after the jump










dress-primark, slippers- Tory Burch, 


Alert!!
Bold yellows, reds and oranges to dominate via prints and colour blocking this season -Drapersonline (august 18th 2011)


Lastly, did you guys notice my hair cut? I didn't make it as drastic as wanted to initially. My balls aren't big enough for that. On the plus side, I can still have it up easily without any hassle or pinning shii.




Above is a photo of my first ever attempt at jollof Rice. DO NOT JUDGE from the appearance! it tastes good, and you won't know because you can't taste it :p The chicken has honey, hence the blackening. It's not burnt. lol. Although, the bottom of the pot I used for the rice is. I've heard It gives food a better taste if the bottom of the pot is burnt.
