SOCIAL MEDIA AND FASHION

Social media has become a part of our globally connected world in multiple ways, and most recently the fashion industry is seeing a major shift in its inspiration for designs and trends, all thanks to Facebook, Twitter, Instagram etc.

  










Fashion houses now use social media to engage with their fans, but it's in a very controlled way. Social media can also influence fashion designers in unique ways that are changing the way many fashion designers create their fashions.

Another major shift that social media has had is simply that the average person can now influence fashion in ways never before possible.

The naturally interactive qualities of social media also make social media an effective tool, allowing people to be a part of the process of fashion making.

Yet not all the big fashion houses have embraced social media due to concerns over the potential loss of control over their brand image.

So the point is, with social media it’s a brave new world for the fashion industry and retailers

FASHION BOSS!

Don't forget who the boss is!

When people are constantly chasing the next trend, they can easily forget who the boss is. You are the boss, I mean “you” with the wallet, ‘you’ with the money. Without you, there will be no fashion. You keep fashion designers in business, you keep tailors in business, and you keep fashion entrepreneurs in business. You set the trend. You decide on fashion. You pick a trend, flex it and customize it as well as fashion. You own the style. It’s yours.  It has been yours from the beginning.

Fashion designers, tailors or fashion entrepreneurs are here to serve you and not you them. Treat yourself like the boss. You are the boss. You have been the boss and they understand that.

Stop trying so hard.

Fashion is here to work to fit you, not to make you work to fit fashion! Dress simply and have great accent pieces." 

What You Should Take Away From This

Ignore the fashion world.

Ignore trends. Don’t allow your mind to be occupied with it.

Start building a style that is based on timeless classics.

Add little trendy stuff to your style, do this because you genuinely like the trending item, not because it’s trendy.

Don’t follow fashion; fashion should follow your style

Invent your own trend; no one says it’s only fashion designers that invent trends

Don’t  follow the crowd. Follow your own senses.

Focus on becoming stylishly you.

What Nigerian Celebrity Slayers Thinks About Make Up

Think guys don't care about makeup? Think again. They may not know much about it or understand exactly how it gets applied, that's fine, we don't expect them to. But they definitely have an opinion when it comes to how much of it you should be wearing.

If you have ever wondered what men really think about women’s makeup, then wonder no more. Lets judge with what Male Nigerian Celebrities think about make up.

These celebrities are perceived to be wild and are known to use extreme make up girls for their videos, yet they have this to say about make up.

Many bloggers think Don Jazzy is ugly, I' for one don't think he is, not when you catch him in a nicely fitted blue suit. Thump up sir. About make up " i think a lot of makeup actually makes women look worse"

    D'prince, with his "six pack" show off, though uncalled for, has this to say about make up. "You don't want to overdo it, if you don't exude beauty from within, no amount of make up will be able to cover it up.

                                                                                             

 

D coco master, D'banj, an entertainer to the core. With all his here and there lifestyle, don't think he doesn't notice. His thoughts "I love seeing ladies in make up, but not heavy amount of it. Let it only highlight your natural beauty not change you to something you are not" 

I must give it up for the fashion designer who made this suit. Your look cute in that black flowered suit.

This is another suit i admire here, i bet they were all made by Nigerian fashion designers. Olamide  is another your celebrity that many girls can kill to get his attention. His thoughs " I prefer it simple and sexy, no man want kiss a clown" 

 Iyanya, with all his tattoo, still have his opinion about make up. I am not a fan of tattoo but i will report guys reports on make up " make up should enhance natural beauty not defile it. Less is more" 

I am the last person to suggest that any woman change herself for a man, especially when it comes to our appearance, but these findings are to help give women the confidence to pare back the amount of make up they wear and let their own natural radiance shine through

No-makeup makeup” is a beauty technique people use to give their face the natural appearance of looking like they’re not wearing makeup even though they are, in fact, wearing makeup. Try this technique and see your man fall in love all over or even more.

Runway Fashion Can Be Hilarious

Are fashion shows actually meant to represent clothes people wear? Or is it more about what this designer can do, and challenging the status quo, etc., things like that? Because so many items are so unpractical and actually quite ugly and ridiculous in real life

 Wow! Can this fashion designer claim that the devil made him do this? I couldn't look at this twice. I wonder how many Nigerian fashion designers can make something like for fashion runway.

I often see pictures from runway shows where the garments look uncomfortable, impractical, and horrendously ugly, and this is just one of them.

 No way! hmmmmm at least no one will ask if she brought bodyguard, because sure she did. Whats this cage doing behind the supposed wedding gown. i wonder the kind of suit the groom will have to wear after seeing this.

 Oh I see, such a befitting suit for the groom. Really? what is this fashion designer thinking?

I just don't have words to describe this masquerade of a hard-work. Fashion designers can be cruel sometimes. What is this person thinking?
