GRWM+OOTD:SUMMER EDITION
Posted on July 17, 2014 6 Comments
Hello! the weather has been so lovely out here, and almost getting quite hot! I was ranting earlier today on how I needed suggestions on a good sunscreen for dark skin (please if you have a brand you’ve tried & tested kindly let me know). My outfit today was casual, and I wore jeans which I haven’t worn in a while… My top had an exposed back, but thank God for designers who produce creative under-wears. (If curious, I’m wearing a bra with a clear strap, and you can buy one here , Debenhams or at Victoria Secret). I also filmed a “Get ready with me” video on my look/makeup, 3minutes long. Watch & Enjoy.
Top: Floock
Jeans: New Look
Bag: Prada
GUESS WHO’S GETTING MARRIED??? LOL
Posted on July 16, 2014 6 Comments
YES! I intended to confuse you! I’m NOT getting married lol, but apparently my “look-alikes” are this weekend!! First lets discuss the couple on the right!
Sisi yemmie & Bobo! I first met Sisi yemmie via a comment someone dropped on my blog, telling me to check her out, the commenter felt there was a resemblance. At first I was like “here we go again”! But on checking out her blog ( sisiyemmie.com) I totally forgot why I was there, I loved her personality instantly! I reached out to her and we became virtual friends, its been a while now and honestly all I have is pure love for Sisi Yemmie. She’s been a big sister, blog mentor and very helpful in ways I can’t mention. Anytime I message her with a question, problem or enquiry she’s swift to reply and advice. I really wish I was in Nigeria to attend her wedding, my GELE would have been the tallest. I have been following her and Bobo’s story for quite a while, from her youtube videos, relationship tips and also till when they won my big nigerian wedding contest. This year has been a wonderful year for her career wise and I’m grateful to God that her personal life is also flourishing, and moving to its #permanentsite lol in her words……I’m so happy for her! words can’t express!
Adanna & David: couple on the Left , I first heard about the couple via one of my youtube stalking nights and they made me laugh so much, I subscribed to their channel, although then I didn’t see any resemblance. Fast forward, months later people started tagging me randomly on their instagram videos saying ‘ Tosin she reminds me of you”, ” Tosin see your look alike” etc. I then checked them out and followed, I still didn’t agree to the resemblance lol. However, I recently posted this picture of them below on my Instagram page and the comments I got were hilarious! see for yourself!
I was then a bit convinced that maybe there was a resemblance. But do you think so? I’d really like to know! please drop a comment ^.^
I’m truly happy for both couples and I pray God blesses their home with his pure love and happiness! I pray to celebrate more friends, family and blog readers IJN!
XOXO
Tosin!

I remember doing a post a while back on ‘fighting temptations’ and I felt really passionate discussing the topic, but what happens when you fall into temptation? What do you do next as a believer? how do you manage those emotions that accompanies the conviction?………………………
As usual, get your bibles, gadgets, notepads and lets begin…..Welcome to Logos corner.

DAY OUT: LUNCH & OOTD
Posted on July 1, 2014 23 Comments
Hello and happy new month!
How are you all doing, and I hope your week is going as planned………. Lately I’ve been very motivated to blog often basically because I’ve finished all course work for the year and I have just my dissertation left! So, I have a bit more time (even though we all know the project phase of a postgraduate programme could be tasking), but all is well by his grace!
Today is my friend, Bayo’s birthday. He also lives in my city and we decided to have lunch today before his friends take him out to flex. The weather was so beautiful and Bayo literally whined me to go back home to get my camera, and I’m glad I did. The pictures turned out nice. We went to this italian restaurant called Mediterraneo Italiano. I’ve been to this place before and I knew they had amazing food plus the staff is extra courteous and friendly (I’m sucker for good customer service). I ordered some chicken in Black Peppercorn sauce with Fries and Salad, while Bayo had some funny named Pasta I can’t spell.
I rate the restaurant 9.5/10 because the food was really really good, lovely decor, great staff and very affordable price. We ordered a glass of wine, pineapple juice and mineral water along sides our meals and it only cost £32.30. Which I think is very reasonable for the quality. Read More
