I Am Not My Clothes

Hey guys, how's the weekend coming up? I'm sure you had a wonderful Friday night. Did you let your hair loose or were you guarded by beliefs peculiar to you?

I was on my own this morning, preparing for my power-point presentation when I stumbled on some pictures posted on Cosmopolitan's Online Blog. I found it very interesting to share, but before I do, here's a teaser.

How many times have you tried to make a decision about what to wear and it seemed like an uphill task? Is it because most ladies sincerely don't know what to wear or because you are faced with the challenge of not creating the wrong impression in the minds of her family, friends, colleagues, admirers or/and strangers?

I won't conclude yet but I can bet that often times than not, the second instance is the reason most ladies spend hours in their closet in the bid to get the most appropriate outfit. 

Should a lady's worth be judged by what she wears?


Terre Des Femmes, a Swiss organization for gender equality, is fighting back against the unfair judgment women and girls face about how they dress with an ad campaign called "Don't Measure a Woman's Worth by Her Clothes." Along with students at the Miami Ad School in Germany, artist Theresa Wlokka created three powerful images, depicting commonly sexualized areas (like a woman's chest and legs) alongside "measuring sticks." culled from Cosmo.

There you have it. Do share your opinion with me, I'd really love to know what you feel about this.

Have a great weekend guys, Peace, Love and Stay Fit.

Mummy North!

Guys, I have come again o!. This time, its about a certain Mummy North. I will gist you all that happened since yesterday till now. Imagine how just a few photographs can stir up the world. Power of Social Media or perhaps InstaMedia (Instagram) So I was told Mummy North was on her own when Paper magazine walked up to her, requesting that she'd be the cover girl for their #breaktheinternet issue. As a sharp 34 year old nursing mother of Armenian blood, such an offer must not pass her by. Considering the amount she was going to get from it which by now we know would be no chicken fee.  My very reliable sources say it was actually Mama North that suggested the nude photos to The Paper Magazine.  Even its director told us that Mummy North said 'if we are gonna do it, let's really go there'.  According to him, it was Mummy North's idea to take off her clothes and show more butt. She was willing to take off her clothes.... Hmmmm, things we watch on TV. She must have...

#DoubleHustle - Banking meets Hair Fashion

It seems like everyone in Nigeria is an entrepreneur these days. Could it be some sort of trend that will phase out after a while, the liberating and elevating feeling it gives to be addressed as a business owner and an employer of labour? Maybe it is an attempt to break even in the current economy reality we are experiencing, or perhaps an effort to change the stereotypical impression that only white collar jobs are the best.
