My July 2020 Current Favourite Items!

Hello my beautiful friends and family! How are you? I hope you all are doing well! July 2020 is an awesome period of the year, many of you guys enjoy going on vacation this time of the year to visit, friends, family and more. I enjoy traveling very much. For instance, last year, I flew three times last year to Nigeria, each time I went, I traveled with my favorite beauty items and some money to prevent unforeseen circumstances so that my holidays would be very exciting and comfortable. For example, whenever I visit Nigeria, I travel with my Rituals body wash,  my biotherm body cream, my OPI nail polish, my toothbrush, hair relaxer, and so on because these items are not easy to find in the Nigeria market and my mummy and relatives like to use these products too. Below are some cool products I like to travel with;

  1. Hugo boss perfume
  2. Dresses
  3. Jeans from Tommy Hilfiger
  4. Nice skin products from Rituals
  5. Some hair care products from Etos/Kruidvat such as hair serum, shampoo, etc
  6. Travel\flight  tickets
  7. Traveling bag and box

My advice to my awesome travelers out there, make sure you have enough money on you when you are traveling, in order to avoid being stranded. Visit nice places. A few years ago, I received a special present during my birthday, I went to Paris with my family,  i also received some gift as a present, enjoyed ourselves in a great hotel room and so on. In the year,2012, then I was living in Dordrecht, I also went to Paris by car as a birthday present, received some money as a gift, and stayed in a very nice hotel room in Paris. I combined it with a great photoshoot then.

I have also been to Greece and Mallorca, got some cool presents during my trips to these awesome countries.  I have been to Modena, Belgium, Witten, Munchen, I once received a to and fro flight ticket paid by a photographer to come and shoot in Munchen, which was early 2012, I flew to Munchen, then I was living in Dordrecht then. In the year 2013,  I made a trip to Witten,  about then photographers shot me in a very nice studio. Each photographer shot me at least for one hour rotationally. I had so much fun.

Traveling is very important to all, young or an adult,  for example in November 2018, after staying in Paris for a while.  I had to fly to Nigeria with a friend of mine due to an emergency, we stayed at City lodge hotel lekki, Lagos, Nigeria before  (prior) to then, I have flown to Nigeria from Holland with other persons I knew before from The Netherlands to Lagos Nigeria and I have stayed during both occasion in City Lodge Hotel Lekki Nigeria. I always had so much fun whenever I go to Nigeria.

Travelling has helped me experience a new culture, learn a new language, eat tasty food, good for the soul.

Healthcare advice, whenever you travel, always drink bottled water, make sure the water you drink and food you eat is well prepared and well preserved, avoid ingesting bacteria-contaminated food, sleep well and have fun.

Thank you so much for reading my blog

Essential Items A Student Needs!

Hello, my beautiful friends and family! How are you? I hope you all are doing well. I have been asked very frequently by some of my blog readers, family members, and more essential items a student needs in order to achieve good grades and study successfully! Below is a list of items, amenities in my opinion in order to achieve great studies. I have a BSc. in Biochemistry, a bachelor’s degree in International business and management studies, and a master’s degree in Marketing and management. I also have several other diplomas. I was a student mentor during my master’s studies a few years ago.

  1. A good internet connection and television/radio in order to view channels such as CNN, BBC, and so on.
  2. Basic clothing such as shoes, jeans, t-shirts, dresses, tidy hair, perfume, nails, makeup, books, schoolbag and more
  3. Great accommodations for your studies
  4. Pocket money for trains, busses, groceries, and more.
  5. Blanket, bed linen and pillow
  6. textbooks
  7. A nice telephone, laptop for communication

During my first year of studies at the university studies at Anambra State University Uli, currently known as Chukwuemeka Odumegwu University, I received my very first triumph phone as a gift. I was so happy. Then I could call my mummy, daddy, relatives,  friends, and family with the phone. I really enjoyed my university studies than in Nigeria, hanging out with friends at school,  sleeping at my girlfriend’s room, I had a very small room then as a student but was able to entertain so many classmates in a day we studied together, eat together, took a nap together, motivated and inspired each other every day. Great memories!

I hope you guys enjoyed my blog post. Please do share with me how you spent your days at the university, where you always alone, eat alone, slept alone, did your home works all by your self, did not motivate your colleagues, or were you an extrovert, had many friends, studied with friends. I love to learn from you.

Thank you so much for reading.

Femme Luxe Try-On Haul 7th Edition

Hello, my beautiful friends and family! How are you? I hope you all are doing great. I am so happy to share with you these amazing dresses I received from Femme Luxe. I received three dresses and a jumper from Femme Luxe. I also bought some dresses with my money. Femme Luxe hs sent me several dresses, the dresses are so lovely and fit me so well.

I went to Rotterdam yesterday, which was on a Sunday. I have been shooting with the photographer I went to for over seven years, then I was pregnant with my second son, living in ‘s Gravenpolder Zeeland. He has shot with me several in Zeeland and at his studio in Rotterdam. I have shot with more than four hundred male and female photographers in The Netherlands, France, Belgium, Nigeria, and other countries for the past decades. I have shot in homes, streets, abandoned buildings, and several hotels in Europe, Nigeria, Uk, and more.  I received the white dress, the brown jumper, the wine-colored dress, and the white dress from Femme Luxe. I love to alternate my shooting locations each time I receive these lovely dresses all the way from The United Kingdom. Sometimes I love to shoot indoors, outdoors, in hotel rooms and at a photo studio, as the saying goes, variety is the spice of life!

The main aim of Femme Luxe sending me these dresses from manchester in the united kingdom are for me to wear them, take pictures and video with them, share them on my social media accounts, as a result, create awareness about their company in The Dutch market.

Femme Luxe has great outfits such as dresses, accessories, bikini, lingerie, shoes, and more. Their outfits are very affordable and can be worn for date nights, Instagram pictures, indoors, and for dinner dates.

Femme Luxe delivers their outfits pretty fast. It took less than five working days for the clothes to arrive at my home address in The Netherlands. I have also received several compliments from my friends, fans, and family, many of you told me that the dresses fit me so well, and suitable for my beauty and fashion blog photos. I have been blogging for over a decade and I have been buying lovely outfits from other brands in The Netherlands and abroad such as from Wehkamp, Bomont, Shein, Open32, The Bijenkorf, and Zalando.

If you are on a budget and want to look decent, sexy, elegant, and trendy, Femme Luxe is definitely the place to be.  Thank you so much Femme Luxe for sending me these lovely outfits. I really love them.

Best Hotels I Recommend!

Hello, my beautiful friends and family! How are you? I hope you all are doing great. I am so thankful to have been to several hotels in Africa, in The Netherlands, and hotels in other European countries. I am so thankful to have had the opportunity to have stayed in several fabulous hotels in The Netherlands, Paris, Spain, Greece, Belgium, Lagos Nigeria. I have traveled alone in some European countries and with my family in some occasions.

These are some of the top hotels I have stayed in;

  1. Hotel Timor
  2. Porto Platanias
  3. Eko Hotel
  4. Novotel
  5. Van der Valk
  6. Fletchers Hotel
  7. Raddison Blu Hotel
  8. Citi Lodge Hotel
  9. Sheraton hotel
  10. Amadore Hotel
  11. Hotel Middelburg
  12. Ibis Hotel Ikeja Lagos

These above-mentioned hotels have great customer service, very tidy, and care for their customers. During my stay at the Sheraton hotel about a decade ago, I had a very nice massage I enjoyed very much with a very nice masseuse at the Sheraton hotel close to Schipol airport.

I really enjoyed my working experience a couple of years ago at  Amadore hotel in Zeeland, Amadore hotel has several hotels in Zeeland, some of the hotels have wellness, an amazing place to relax.

There are several reasons people go to the hotel, to relax, visit friends and family, shopping, writing, for making nice pictures, for experiencing new culture, food, and environment.  In 2019, I spent a night at Radisson Blu hotel in Antwerpen, I had so much fun. I and four other footballers friend of mine spent quality time in my bedroom for some hours before they left.

I love food very much,  I enjoy different dishes. I like Julia’s takeout food, Panos sandwiches and other delicacies you get to enjoy when you travel. If you live alone, or have your family abroad, or a widow or a widower and feel very lonely at home, Instead of becoming depressed, I recommend you travel to a new city and stay in a very nice hotel or Airbnb. According to medical practitioners, loneliness can lead to depression.

I hope this blog post inspired you! I do have friends and family members that have a lot of kids. If you do plan to travel to a new country and wish to lodge in a hotel, I do advise you to call the hotel first and ask if you can spend the night in a room with your husband and wife and with for or five of your young kids. Some hotels might not accept large family members to spend a night in a room with their kids.

You can arrange a nice vacation with Sunweb. Thank you so much for reading my blog and have a great trip or happy stay at any hotel of your destination! I would like to use this opportunity to thank all the great hotels around the world for creating a nice, private, and conducive place for your guest.

xoxo

Hello, my beautiful friends and family! How are you? I hope you all are doing great! Men and women tend to struggle sometimes with excessive hair on the legs, shoulder, back, and chest. There are several ways to care for excessive hair on your body. Summer is around the corner, We need to care for our body hair, feet (pedicure), and hands (manicure). There are several ways to care for excessive hair on your body

  1. Shaving with shaving foam and shaving stick
  2. Waxing
  3. Trimming with scissors
  4. For women, with no hair, please wear Extention or wigs. Rosa beauty and Luxy hair has very nice hair
  5. For men, if you do not have enough hair on your hair, use the natural remedy on your hair such as rice water, or drink some hair vitamins, you can buy this from DE TUINEN in The Netherlands.

I am not a doctor but a biochemist. If you want to achieve healthier hair, nails, and better skin, you need to improve your diet. Consume more milk, protein-rich food such as fish, meat, and chicken.

If you have an itchy scalp, oily scalp or dandruff, use a special shampoo. Wash your hair every day with nice shampoo from Loreal and also use a hair conditioner.

There are artificial ways to improve your hair texture on your head such as hair transport. If you want to remove the entire hair on your hair, you need to undergo major Lazer.

I hope this tip inspires you. Please do share with me how you care for your hair

7 Reasons Why I Like Wearing Nice Dresses!

Hello, my beautiful and elegant friends and family! How are you? I hope you all are doing well! I am so happy to share with you cool reasons I love wearing dresses. Dresses make me feel like a lady. A woman needs to have a couple of dresses in her wardrobe. The more we women grow older,  our dresses style, color, texture needs to change too. A lady needs to wear dresses that accentuate her curves, not too much, not over the board, but really nice and mature. The reasons I like to wear dresses are;

  1. Dresses make me feel comfortable.
  2. Dresses make me feel more feminine.
  3. Dresses are easy to maintain.
  4. Dresses improve my confidence level.
  5. Dresses make me feel younger.
  6. Dresses make me feel happier
  7. It’s so much fun to dress up and look cute!

Brands such as Femme Luxe, Shein, Nelly, Fashionova, We Fashion, H&M, MET, Ted Baker has really made really nice clothing. My loving ladies out there, when you have to wear a dress, wear minimal makeup, have the right accessories, think about the occasion you are about to attend before dressing up. Wear dresses when you are at home, going for a dinner date, a wedding or after the wedding party. Wear nice jeans instead when going to the supermarket or a long decent dress.  My mummy advised me to start selling my dresses so I decided to build my very own webshop where I sell my dresses called www.fabulousbeautiesfashion.com.

A few weeks ago, I went to Breda to buy some cool jeans from the brand Tommy Hilfiger. I wish I was able to find a job in Middelburg that sells Tommy Hilfiger Jeans. I also bought a foundation from Dior exactly my skin shade. I was so happy I was able to finally buy a foundation exactly my skin tone. I bought the cool foundation at the Ici Paris shop in Breda. The customer service at Ici Pris shop was awesome, the ladies were very nice, wore a nice smile and very professional beauty consultant.

I also went to Antwerpen recently to buy my nice afro hair. I really love my new curly hair. It makes me feel like am a diva. Ladies need to feel happy and look coordinated. A lady with nice hair and make feels more confident more than a woman with old hair, old clothes, and tattered outfits.

I hope this blog post inspired you. Please share with me where you buy your cool dresses. I would love to learn from you

xoxo

Summer Lookbook Inspiration!

Hello, my beautiful friends and family! How are you? I hope you all are doing well. I enjoy wearing very lovely dresses. Dresses makes me feel confident and more feminine. A few months ago, Femme Luxe approached me to promote their lovely dresses, I was very pleased to do so. I have also worn dresses from other brands such as Quiz, Fashionova, Nelly, Shein, and Awbridals.

I love to make the best use of my summer outfits, I do enjoy wearing my lovely summer outfits indoors, to the beach, and also for creating my Instagram stories, blog posts, Facebook posts, and youtube post. I have received a lot of compliments from my amazing friends, fans, and family! You guys have told me that I look lovely in these dresses ( please find pictures below). The weather in the Netherlands is great these days, not too cold, so such outfits would be nice to wear during these sunny days.

The dresses I am wearing below are very fragile, I do recommend you wash such outfits with hand, If you must wash it in a washing machine, please set the washing machine at a very low temperature. Washing these clothes without care will damage the outfits. For my male fans and reader out there, please do make sure you wash your outfits regularly and properly by using the right temperature, separating colored wash, and whitewash.  I enjoy laundry very much and also has coached several persons on how to care for themselves, shoes and linen. I used to work for laundry and dry cleaning company over a decade in Nigeria, I really learned a lot about caring for all kinds of clothing while I was working for the company. If you do enjoy washing your towels, bedsheets at home nd really like it to smell great, I do recommend you use Robijn washing gel from Jumbo Supermarket in The Netherlands.

I hope this blog post inspires you. If you need some coaching on how to style your self this summer period, look and smell great! Please contact me!

xoxo
