Chunky Chunks of Love!


I looove heels! I wear heels everyday, not that you would find me tottering about in 6inches but I do love my gait when I am wearing at least 3 inches.

So, just when we thought we were doomed to a lifetime of painful fashion, designers went and did it with the block heels

Most Lagos fahsionistas have no trouble styling these shoes, but just in case there is some one reading this who is lost, here are some ideas

You can go all out Boho-chic in chunky heels for the totally casual and relaxed days, or add some comfort to busy work days in your formal wear, as seen below

Block heels have also featured on the red carpet too!

Into The Blue.........



Blue......
vast.......wide
infinite and complete
the sum total of depth
strengthening my soul in resolution
confounding the treacherous in its journey
 - Olufikayo B.A

Perhaps that poem will make sense in some years to come. Lol! But seriously it came from deep within and it just summarises my thoughts on my favorite colour - BLUE.

Wikipedia describes BLUE as the colour of the clear sky and the deep sea. It is the colour most associated with Harmony, faithfulness, confidence, distance and infinity.
Here are a few facts about BLUE:

  • It is overwhelmingly the most popular choice as most men and women choose this colour as their favorite.
  • According to wikipedia, planet Earth is referred to as the Blue Planet
  • At certain times in History, Christians or Jews wore blue, because only Muslims, in Moorish Spain, were allowed to wear white and green.
  • Blue is the colour most featured in stained glass design os cathedrals and mosques but also in Mosaic art.
  • Blue became associated with holiness, humility and virtue in the 12th Century, when in the veneration of the Virgin Mary, her clothes were depicted as a high blue




Fashion-wise, blue is a great colour to use to pull together an outfit, or for more conservative personalities, a great way to add a pop of colour without drawing too much attention to yourself. For me, I can all out! Below are a selection of some of our shoes in blue. All of them are available for sale!
