Blend it while you trend it

Blends blends blends,
Unison, uniform, unity

Lol pardon my play on words but to be trendy theres need for your outfit to be blendy. Blend with your skin tone, blend with your environment, blend with your accessories, your dress needs to blend with each other. You shouldn't go around looking like some joker searching for batman. We should understand when you are clowning and when you wanna be tagged #hotSauce.
This is where the COLOUR WHEEL comes in . We all know the rainbows colour ; red, orange, yellow,green, blue, indigo, violet. When joined end to end it forms a wheel. And this is the easiest way your colours work together to give you that desired look.

HOW TO COMBINE COLOURS

WARM AND COOL COLOURS
Hues of colors like red, orange, yellow, brown, etc. are warm colors – they make things look smaller in size, and that’s why
most of us prefer wearing warmer

colors when we want to look slimmer. Cool colors, like hues of blue, purple, green, etc., are soothing colors.
In using the colour wheel there are some principles to matching your wears

Complementary

Red and green, violet and yellow, blue and orange – complementary colors, as the name goes, work best when put together. These are exactly opposite to each other on the color

wheel. They might seem bold to look at, but the outputs will be perfect. So rotate that around the wheel when next you wanna wear something nice

Analogous

Matching two or three continuous shades on the color wheel that blend well with each other is called analogous color matching.
the color wheel and work with that.

When you put an entire outfit together based on this, it looks both striking and stylish. If you are wondering how to style that orange or camel trench coat of yours, pick a shade on either side of the color wheel

Triadic

The combination of colors that are
equidistant from each other on the color wheel is called ‘triadic.’ They look great together, but some might argue that they can be. However, you can choose the muted shades of these colors to make your outfit. A pair of green cargos with a pastel pink top and powder blue accessories or shoes will look sophisticated and tasteful.

Keeping It In the Family
Keeping it in the family is a mantra you
need to remember. The safest way to do this is by blending different shades of the same color.
There are many and various ways you can play around with the colour wheel and obtain something really nice but in doing this do not go looking like joker or a pack of crayons in the nursery.
Feel free to drop your comments and questions. You need to dress the Wright way

5 REASONS WHY I DONT WANT TO GET MARRIED

5 REASONS WHY I DONT WANT TO GET MARRIED(THE ALTER EGO ISSSUE) A couple of weeks back I was on my way to Metropolitan Supermarket where I went to get some hair products for my hair. I alighted from the Tricycle popularly know as #KEKE in this part of the world and was about to pay the driver when a feminine voice interposed; "il take care of it". I turned around to find my friend Ruth (real name withheld) standing beside me. To cut the long story short, I learnt that she was going through some crises in her marriage. She couldn't help but show her sadness in form of tears that rolled down her cheeks while she talked. And I was compelled to write something about Marriage. I questioned more than a couple of people to give me reasons why they wanted to get married. But surprisingly enough some of them never wanted to get married and with legit reasons. Most of their reasons all boiled down to what I'll call the #ALTER_EGO issue. Now before ...

"ACRIMONY" the Movie Controversy

Have you ever asked for a die-hard movie lover and I didn't present myself to you? Well im so much a sucker for movies but about a few weeks ago, I was sucked up in thought after I was done watching the highly controversial movie ACRIMONY. And it dawned on me more like a self realisation that in as much as I can cry when I watch a sober movie, I can equally get very upset. After much thought I decided to do a review of this movie based on my personal judgement and a few others. Just before I begin to add my own "versy" to the already existing controversy, Here is a a brief synopsis of the movie plot 'ACRIMONY' for the benefit of those who have not seen it yet. As the clearly aggrieved Melinda relates her story to the shrink, the story flashes back to the early days of her relationship with Robert (Antonio Madison, playing the younger version of the character), whom she meets when they're both in college. The young Melinda (Aijona Alexus, who seems...

Pick-Up line or FuckedUp line

Okay, today I decided to take a brake from fashion and how we wear what we wear. Reason being that, im beginning to realise that most of us even after appearing appealing to the eyes; fine, overly dressed and with a lot of charisma Actually do not know how to talk. And by talking I meaning having right Pick-up lines or Chyking(like my Nigeria brothers would call it). Cos frankly I think most of you wouldn't have been born if the only line Daddy used was "You are the Sugar in my tea" which tea please? ? #thinking. Let me pause a Sec to explain why I think so: Did you know just about yesterday, out of the 7billion people in the world, in a corner of Uyo Nigeria there was a certain guy who told a girl "Baby im not staring at your boobs, im only using my eyes to find a way into your heart" Prior before now I felt like those lame pick up lines only existed in comedy movies or vocals of Okon Lagos aka Bishop (our Nigerian kevin Hart) but yesterday got me thi...

Why We Fall In Love With The Wrong People

There happens to be a lot of uncertainty resulting into questions when it comes to this Falling in love thing. Its either a case of: "Falling in Love is beautiful but what if I'm falling into the wrong hands?" Or "Sometimes the person you fall for isn't ready to catch you." Some other times its: "Bottom line,we never fall for the person we are supposed to". Now this brings me to the point of interest. Have you ever Wondered why we often fall in Love with the people who don't Love us back? Chase people who don't want us? I could still recall way back in highschool, I use to have this beautiful seat mate(my young eyes really admired) who really was so into me but I never treated the feeling with any much respect, perhaps cos I was the one being chased? or maybe I wasn't just cutout for any of those childhood dramas. But one amazing thing was 'she never stopped'. This is same case with many of us(men/women). Many...

CROCS AND HOW TO WEAR EM!!

CROCS OR NAH! Okay, today I was sitting with my friend and the sister came along. She wanted to go get food and since we were just a bit free at the time we decided to tag along on her request. While we walked down my friend kept saying Hi to almost err one, so there was a repetitive momentary stop we always had to observe to wait for her. While I waited for her with the sister I couldn't help but notice the CROCS she had on. I really don't do well with compliments though but I had I to tell her how nice they looked. Because she wore em neatly and correctly. Now im not a croc fan, to be earnest enough I dislike them and I even dislike them the more the way some people get to wear them. Now the multi coloured rubber clogs which made way into the light in the year 2002 has been overly abused and in #LASISI_ELENU'S voice il say "im so upset right now!". How can you wear a shirt buttoned to the neck, wear a coperate pant neatly ironed and shirt neatly tucked i...

RoadsideOpinions: One Minute Man

" Says he can go for hours but pops before the toaster does"- Kermit the frog It is no more news that a lot of things are wrong in my country. Ranging from the religious crisis to misappropriation of funds and lack of intercourse between the three tiers of the government to conceive effective synergy. Which do I talk about and leave the other? Is it the People who frown like they own the vehicle when they order Uber,Opay etc or the ones that look at you like your brain is a vacuum when you try to flag down the Keke (stop that nonsense)they Ordered from Opay. Well that's not where the problem lies. The major problem my country faces is these people who Keep polluting the peace with a lot of noise about "doing your work Kakaraka as a man" You don't know them? Herbal drugs oooo.

LAYERING(SHIRT ON SHIRT) We decided to come through with something for err one, as long as you're male or female then this is for you. But if u not any of those then....... Before I proceed il like to take the time to sincerely apologise for leaving my readers with nothing to read and catch up on. Good thing is im back for better and im back for you ♥. Now take a close look at this picture and tell me what you noticed. I know the traffic would be very congested with the number of people who noticed a green light first. Some others might notice the individuals Resin glasses, but that's not it. You never noticed he was wearing a SHIRT ON A SHIRT. YES! That's not a jacket. You know the shirt on shirt is a style which is quite delicate, meaning that with just a slight error everything gets messy and not nice to behold. There's a thin line between looking cool and looking stuffed up in this kinda style. Wearing a s...

THE CONFESSION STORIES: She Made Me Do IT

CONFESSION: SHE MADE ME DO IT "I promise to tell the truth, only the truth, and nothing but the Truth" There's a first time to everything right? Maybe my first time was behind time or perhaps it was at the right time but the first time I was touched by a girl, female, woman, lady,which ever you want to call it was too intriguing that I can barely forget. Maybe you know my name but for people who don't, thank God. Just describe me as (W) and for privacy sake which matters in this situation, this lady would be described as (W). Confusing yeah? Read on! I'm sure when it comes to sexually oriented contents or that have a bit of erotism, you hardly get confused even if I said "Men are swords" (now you're trying to read a dirty meaning into that, *Laughs* means nothing any ways) I was in Junior Secondary School at the time. Smart,Quiet and Naive would be the adjectives that best described me. Plus I was very antagonistic towards girls and m...

YOUR SELF ESTEEM AND YOUR WARDROBE

YOUR SELF ESTEEM AND YOUR WARDROBE Walk into any fast food restaurant around you or perhaps pay the cinema a visit. You are sure to find the following set of people; Guy and Girl sitting and talking. Most times it always seems like the guy is trying to convince her to believe something. She smiles at intervals and then maintains composure. I call these set of people the LOVERS. Asides the LOVERS we have those that come all the way down from their houses to these public places to charge their phones. I'd call em the PACIFIERS because they're so obedient and try to please err one around. The waiters or security most times are good at ordering these ones around knowing fully well that they wouldn't protest or argue since they are only charging their devices and paying no dime. But out of all the categories of people you find in these public places, there's a category of interest and it's the STEAMERS. I call these ones the steamers because they feel so HOT, sexy, a...
