FIVE THINGS ON MY MUST-HAVE LIST

I'm loving so many items right now, from lipsticks to tshirts,  but these five top my list and I'm going to show you why.

1. AFRICAN PRINT WRAP SKIRT BY NAADU


It is number one on my list for so many reasons;you know that feeling you get when you see an amazing fashion item and you're already thinking of different ways to rock it?
Well, that is exactly how i felt when i saw this wrap skirt.
In a matter of minutes i had already paired it with a white long sleeved shirt, a crop/tank top , sneakers and even a Tshirt all in my head. lol 
You can stop by their pop-up shop at the African Regent Hotel from now till 23rd September or contact them on +233234974530



2. VASTIES RETRO SUNGLASSES


They are about the coolest sunglasses in Ghana right now, so chic and fab. They are the perfect accessories on any sunny day ,thankfully there's sunshine all year round.
I can't wait to lay my hands on a pair or two.
They are available on vasties.storefoundry.com




3. JADA PONCHO HOODIE BY NUNA COUTURE



Cool is my favourite word today, and for a good reason too.
This hoodie is unisex and can be worn in different ways. Comes in coal black, royal blue,blue-black,light oatmeal, white, orange-red and turquoise green.
Now isn't that cool?

4. MSIMPS LAPTOP BAG




I love the Africa print and leather combination and to make it even better, it can be customized to suit your lifestyle.
And yes it'll make the perfect gift item too. *gift ideas*
Place an order at info@msimpsgh.com


5. KAMOKINI SWIM WEAR


This being on my wishlist has nothing to do with the fact that i love water (well I'm an Aquarius). I can't say much about my swimming skills, but going to the pool or the beach is always a good idea to me. :-)
I love swim suits, probably my favorite fashion item ever and these kamokini swim suits give me a reason to love them even more, so so stylish.
They are available on luxoca.com


So there you go, here's my list.
What's on yours? Tell me...

Cheers...Laurie

VANGRESHA COLLECTION BY JERMAINE

                                 

                                   

Young and talented Ghanaian designer , Jason Jermaine Asiedu has recently released a mini collection , "VANGRESHA". Inspired by the different tastes in music, arts, and fashion, that is characteristic of today's urban society as well as an unquenchable desire to redefine the African woman's look. 

     We particular love the fabrics he used , and those earth tones definitely gave the clothes a surreal look. 
The creative director of JERMAINE also had this to say ;

      "The Mini Collection captures the heart and mind of an alter ego VANGRESHA, a mix of Class and Sexuality. VANGRESHA captures the essence of modern women showing SKIN. This collection gives off vibes of women with power. Each piece gives the person variety and power to interact with different people. Made with chiffon,cotton,lace,rayon. "

Enjoy the collection.

PRINTS, NUDE AND BLACK .ROBERTA FRILL PRINT SKIRT ON JUMIA GHANA

Jumia Ghana is a year old and apart from the amazing discounts their clients get to enjoy, I am collaborating with them to bring you at least one look a week from their fab fashion store.
So if you haven't already checked them out yet, now is the best time to do that .

For today's look we picked this very stylish NMA Roberta Frill print skirt going for 80 Ghana Cedis, available in sizes; small, medium and large,

FRONT
BACK



DETAILS


It is a very beautiful and colourful skirt, so we need to go easy on the other pieces we are going pair it with. It's very feminine and definitely a good mood booster.
For a top I chose this black bralet which is because I love all things black , black is a classic and the skirt stands out.





I then went for a Frida nude high heel ankle strap sandal and finished the look off with an elegant jeweled nude clutch.






THE COMPLETE LOOK






Quite simple right?
This look is perfect for a date night  or a girls night out. It can also work as a day look.
Follow our tips and style it your way, remember being confident and comfortable is key, and don't hesitate to tag us in your pictures so we can feature you on our social media media pages.

BREAKFAST AT MUKASECHIC EATERY




Earlier today I was in Osu and had a few minutes to spare before an event I had.
I decided to grab a quick breakfast, it was 10am and the reporting time for my event was 10:30am.
I had to make a decision on what and where I wanted to eat.
I'm not really a foodie , I'm more of a meatie lol ,and when it comes to food how good it looks matters to me.
I had seen so many posts on Instagram and personally heard the owner Jay, speak about how her eatery started. 

MUKASECHIC Eatery receives a lot of positive reviews on social media and I had waited too long to try them out, I needed to make sure it wasn't all hype. 
After missing a few turns I finally found the place....First customer of the day Yipeee
Two young men welcomed me nicely and offered me a seat, I was given two options Angwa mo ( oil rice) or jollof rice with chicken or pork. I chose jollof rice with pork.
I had no idea pork could taste so good.

Did I enjoy it? YES
Did it meet my expectations? YES
Will I go there again? YES
Will I recommend the place to others? YES
As Ghanaian as I am , I believe jollof tastes even better after a day or two, so after a few spoons and half of the pork later , I asked them to pack it for me. Did I say i wasnt a foodie? Well!!!

Get in touch with Mukasechic on 0540688682 or 0208787248 to place your orders of for directions to their restaurant. My direction giving skills are nothing to write home about.
find them on instagram @mukasechic_eatery
