Tobi: Tribal Influences

 Tribal inspired jewelry have been all the rage lately. Here's my office look today. I'm wearing a classic white shirt with folded arms + a pleated Ankara shirt with Satin trimming. I finished this look with a corset belt, tan flats I've had forever, and some tribal (Egyptian and Aztec-inspired) jewelry that's got me gushing! What do you think, hit or miss?

 All that teeth on display... I probably smile way more than the average person should (that's a good thing). [#MonologueTime#: Me: Don't you just love my tie? It's gold-plated, btw. Fun way to join the androgynous crowd, don't you think? Me (Reply):As If!]

 And here's the lovely pyramid ring I picked up at an open market close by the office.. I'm really feeling the neon nails too!

I did say I was at work, right?

 #Sigh!

Tobi: New Accessory Watch

Just added this yummy pearl encrusted statement necklace to my ever expanding collection!  I'm going to have so much fun styling this. Can't wait to show you all the many different ways I plan to wear this classy baby... *folding my hands with glee*

Life's always good  to fashion lovers! Do I hear an 'Amen'?

Dami: Matched Pair

I do so love to play around with chains... just made these stacked chains with dual-coloured earrings! 

 What do you think? Would you wear these?

Dami: Rainbow-Bright Pops of Colour ...tempered with a hint of steel

There's nothing more exciting than glamming up dull outfits with a dash of neon-rainbow-bright accessories!

                                      

Dami: Ankara Bangles

Made in total commitment to the ankara jewelry trend, here are ankara bracelets to feed your eyes, and style cravings:

Femi: How We Wore an Ankara Skirt

Tobi and I have a mild sister-tuition thing going on. Even across vast distances, we end up buying the same fabric and sewing the same styles. Well, here's another one of those..... I think it's interesting how we wore the skirt so differently...

My comfortable school look (remember this look?)

Well, here's how Tobi wore 'her' ankara skirt to work!

Tobi's work look

And the awesome accessories......

... were all lovingly made by  Dami! 

Dami: Inspired by Nature - Bracelets of Colour

With this collection, I aimed for vibrancy and simplicity. I wanted pieces that felt right at home in nature but also retained a subtle tribal inclination. These bracelets were born of my reflections on the raw, edgy beauty of rocks, trees and the earth... the wild delicacy of forest blooms, and the flowers in my mum's gardens. Enjoy...

Many hugs and kisses to Tobi for taking these awesome shots!
