Styling is about telling a story with your client; translating what she feels on the inside outside, I styled this piece telling a story about a lady who's a guest at a wedding party and desires to be a stunning guest indeed. She's going to the event a guest, but will probably be hosting the next wedding event. That is The plan!!!

Hi Esteemed readers

I'm so sorry for the long silence, it wasnt planned at all. Trust me! I was all fixed on completing my certification as a Fashion Stylist and Personal Shopper.

It's been quite tasking yet a very worthy investment, lots of knowledge gained. I'm also pleased to say that you all can expect some professional advice from this blog or personal consults from "Yours Truly" Certified Fashion Stylist aka Impression manager aka Image Consultant *winks*

I missed blogging & sharing tips, also missed your comments, views/opinions. But "The Cubed Woman" is back with a bang.

As part of giving back to society, I'll be having a free consultation period for the next one month. If you require any of these services, consulting, fashion styling, wardrobe edit, personal shopping hit me up on stylemergers@gmail.com and I'll be glad to assist with your styling needs.

Much love!!!

This post is dedicated to my mother - Lady G.A Awunor , mother In-law - Mrs Patricia O. Amadi-Emina, Ebi Abiyou and all those who have fallen asleep in the hope of the resurrection.

Welcome to the month of love - February, and as is the culture at this time most persons are busy strategizing, budgeting and window shopping gift options for their loved ones.

As much as this sounds good, my observation in this part of the world is that most people are afraid of being expressive about LOVE every other day. Simple words like" I love you" go a long way to pacify a scared partner, parent, sibling /friend or better still assure them that someone truly cares. 

Whenever we bottle up these feelings it back fires with a dose of guilt when we lose them to other people or life's circumstances. Expressing your love by way of saying it or showing it doesn't make you a lesser man or woman than your peers. It's simply the wise thing to do. 

“Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love.” 

― Mother Teresa

"There is no fear in love, for perfect love casteth out all fear"

―1st John 4:18a

Make a resolution today to tell someone you love them, if you really do and don't wait till you have them no more, also show some love to someone in need no matter how little.

The 70th edition of the GG has finally come and gone, and we saw our fave stars glam up the red carpet in some truly flattering designs. Many entertainment portals have aired the event and made it accessible to all interested to make their input on fave celeb outfit, hair, accessories etc.

While we are still at it, i.e observing the best dressed, best hairstyle, outstanding color combinations, lets also understand that trend patterns for 2013  are being created from the sightings at the red carpet. Though some  of the trends we can see already exist, a few others are pretty new like the full body lace worn by Nicole Richie, the complicated black lace dress worn by Eva Longoria (that dress sure has a lot going on, though cute but in my opinion would have been better if it showed less thigh)


Eva Longoria in a black lace/sheer Emilio Pucci dress. Key features of the dress  "wider than"key hole bustline, backless & high leg slit. Not for the faint hearted.

For the hair styles, I notice a come-back of the side swept waves in 2013, It was quite common on the GG red carpet. 

From top left: Heidi Klum, Jeessica Alba, Racheal Weiss, Jennifer Lopez & Megan Fox rocked this look.

To achieve this hairstyle: Simply choose an 18 inch and above weave, the longer the length of weave the lower it drops to create the red carpet look you can see above. You can also choose two weave lengths as desired. For Human hair weaves a straight one will require curling for this wavy look, for naturally curled weaves you just need to use the flexible rollers daily.

Decide on a suitable  part, or allow your stylist make that decision. After hair has been fixed, use the flat tongs on your natural hair to create a nice permed finishing. The outcome should look just as good.

I love the styling of this white one shoulder dress on Heidi, STUNNING!!!

We look forward to the month of February which hosts the Oscars. Wishing you a blessed week ahead.
