What is more fashionably reliable than an LBD (Little Black Dress) worn all year round. It is very elegant, works with every woman's shape & can be combined in so many styles & outfits.

I've had it for almost 5 years & has been combined it into so...

Remember when Sanaipei Tande (a Kenyan musician & Radio Host) was once featured on Pulse Magazine in a Slip dress at some Award Show, and everyone (me included) was like, ''Why on earth is she wearing a a nightdress out of the house?'' Well, now I've been forced to eat my words because here I am wearing a Slip dress from my new collection, not once, but in 5 different outfits.

I love Strawberries & can eat them all day long, & that’s why am always excited for Summer to get here. We are blessed here in Hamburg to have a lot of small Farms where Strawberries are planted and in early Summer, they open up their Farms for the Public and you can pick & eat as many Strawberries as you want and take however much amount that you want, which they weigh and then you pay for.

The Little Black Dress is a must-have in every woman's wardrobe, not only because of it's versatility but also how flattering it can be on women of all shpaes & sizes. It can be styled in various ways to fit different occassions, all you need to do is to switch up your Accessories. Simple jewellery & some classic Pumps for a day look, then to change it from Day to Night, a Statement Necklace, some strappy Heels & a cute Clutch bag & you are ready for your Hot Date.
