A little under the weather, so I’ll make this short. Hope you all are having an amazing week/day! So weird to have nice weather and have a cold at the same time, innit? Wearing: Elizabeth and James boyfriend blazer. You can purchase the white...

Apr 10, 2012

I had a really nice write-up describing what I did on Sunday, links for my outfit and suggested styles, but lost it all. Somehow, it didn’t save. I can’t begin to tell you the amount of time and effort it takes me to research and link my...

Hope you all had a lovely weekend! I spent my Saturday shopping for suits for Greg – pretty happy and giving myself a hi-5 because it was a success. Haha. The rest of the evening, I had a GNO (girls night out) with my sister-in-laws. We...

Thank God it’s Fridayyyyyy! Chilling out and painting the town…not red, but rainbow colors? Yeah, I have the kids in tow and we are going to be all over Los Angeles Zoo & Botanical Gardens. Wearing: Boyfriend shirt (from the...

Apr 5, 2012

Yesterday, Greg and I had to attend a parent teacher meeting at our teenager’s school before going about our day. Maybe it’s just me, but I tend to tense up before school meetings. I guess because I was a bit of a problem child growing...

This Jil Sander-esque dress was “love at first sight.” I recommended it on the pinterest page several weeks ago. While on vacation, my big sis and I walked into this boutique by her house and our jaws dropped. She fell in love with a...

This is the outfit I wore to chill out on Sunday. I made these lace pants 12 years ago – from the very first collection I ever did. Can you believe that? You all know I was just on vacay, right? (went home to spend time with my family). Well,...

Hope you all had a great & fun weekend?! It was quite windy here in Los Angeles – so much so I almost had a Marilyn Monroe moment twice in this skirt. Wore this ‘fit out to dinner to celebrate my SIL’s birthday on...

I am sooooo glad it’s Friday. The kiddies are going away for the weekend – I couldn’t be happier…haha. Mama needs a break! What are your plans for the weekend (if any)? Wearing: Orange polka dot shirt c/o Romwe. Looks like...

For those that have been a Style Pantry reader for a while, you know I like loose fitting clothes. Occasionally, you’d find me wearing a fitted piece…like skinnies or the flirty cut-out maxi in this post. But for the most part, my tomboy...

Mar 28, 2012

Had to wake up super early to be at a meeting in downtown Los Angeles for the kids clothing line. Not a happy camper, as I’m running on a few hours of sleep. It was my girlfriend’s birthday yesterday (Melody Ehsani) and we partied till...

It’s amazing how fashion & style comes back full circle. This peplum look has been around for years. In fact, one of the reasons I love it so much is because it’s a traditional and cultural style back home (Nigeria). The peplum...

Mar 26, 2012

Yesterday was our last day on the East Coast. Wish could stay longer, but it has been 10 days – Greg & I have to get back to work, and the kids….school! On the plane right now writing up this post and sobbing. Miss my family already....

Mar 23, 2012

Yesterday was such a crazy fun day – spent it with my big sis. Went to all of her morning meetings with her and enjoyed a few hours of retail therapy after. Running into a Style Pantry & NaturalBelle reader at the store was such a pleasant...

Mar 22, 2012

Shopping in my sister’s closet is so much fun. She doesn’t even remember she owns half of the stuff in it. She is so blessed to have a little sister like me. If I’m good for anything, it’s taking her clothes and never...

Mar 21, 2012

Hope everyone is having a great week so far. Enjoying some time away from home, though I’m still working (full-time) and also trying to adjust to the time difference. Two things: The weather has been beyond amazing and I have been eating like...

Mar 20, 2012

As you know, I’m currently on vacation and I packed really, really light. I’m going to try to work the little things I packed over and over again. There’s also the option of shopping in my sister’s closet. The jacket, scarf...

Mar 19, 2012

I have been having a blast on vacation having fun with my family. It’s like an unplanned reunion because everyone is here, not just family…but close friends too. I’m going to try to talk everyone into taking pictures for Style...

Mar 16, 2012

Hey, lovies! I’m on the plane right now writing this post. Saying that I am exhausted will totally be an understatement. Traveling and packing for five people (we’ll be gone for almost 2 weeks) isn’t an easy task. Haha. Took these...

Mar 15, 2012

Keeping it simple and casual while I run around town – Last minute errands before we have leave for our trip! Wearing: Blazer from Zara (old) – Alternative here in about seven colors. Blouse is from Nasty Gal. I have on this pair of J...

Mar 14, 2012

Here’s another piece I recommended for purchase on our pinterest page. I take advantage of the deals I find too, and I couldn’t resist this skirt. It’s orange, pleated and tiered. Yeah, that’s a no-brainer for me. Sweater...

Mar 13, 2012

Getting ready for a trip to the East Coast. Will be there for almost 2 weeks, so I have a full schedule the next couple of days . One thing is for sure…outfit posts will be really interesting because I tend to pack really light –...

Mar 12, 2012

Yesterday, Greg and I ran errands with kids, enjoyed the weather and grabbed dinner before heading home to prep for the week. This was what I wore. Boyfriend shirt is literally from the men’s department via Bloomies.  My jeans are a few years...

Mar 11, 2012

It was such a nice day yesterday. Greg and I have had a very busy couple of weeks, so it was great to hangout solo. A few hours away from the three little ones. We went for a long drive along the beach and had lunch at one of our favorite spots in...

Mar 9, 2012

A day at the park with the kids to run around and go wild. They love the swings & slides, while the littlest one is obsessed with throwing sand in the air and at everyone in her vicinity. Went with a super comfy outfit: Biker leather jacket,...

Mar 8, 2012

After having a long stretch of beach weather in LA, it got a little windy on us. The sun is still out and feels good, but I get cold so easily…that it’s possible I’m exaggerating. Wearing: Dotted sheer shirt – similar shirt...

Mar 7, 2012

Really glad I got this kimono top. I recommended it for purchase on our facebook page a couple of weeks ago. It was only $18. The fabric is amazing – quite soft and silky. The oversize fit, embroidery and dragon on the back seals it for...

Mar 6, 2012

This is another weekend outfit. Wore this on Sunday to hang with Greg and the kids. It was a really hot, but fun day driving along the coast and people watching in Malibu. Wearing: Zara scarf print scarf. I also love these two from topshop here and...

Mar 5, 2012

The weather has been so awesome in LA. It was in the high 80s all weekend, so I pulled out this jumpsuit on Saturday. It’s a very light fabric and perfect color for the sun. Rolled up the sleeves and pants during the day, but when the weather...

Mar 2, 2012

It’s casual Friday! Went for a laid back look with denim/leather/leopard print. My favorites. Denim shirt – Can’t go wrong with a GAP denim shirt, or this wash here. Faux leather pants on sale for 50% off here. I completely adore...
