July 2016 Fashion Illustration

Hello lovelies,

Its July and I've got something a little different. Didn't think I'll be able to get an illustration ready this month and considered a throwback illustration but was finally able to make out to make out time for this cute number. 

About this illustration . . .   I planned to illustrate and old sketch but ended up tweaking it and it ended up being something different. I designed the blue print with the aide of the Photoshop brush tool. And something I really love about this illustration is how the shades and highlights came out on the blue print. When I was done, I almost didn't want to part with it, but, here it is. A friend named her 'Halle' after the actress, Halle Berry so say hello to Halle, my July girl. From Halle and I, have a July as great as you.

Which Nigerian or foreign celebrity do you think can rock this look?

OnStyle: Power Monday

Hello lovelies,

Don't let the thought of Monday weigh you down. Be happily OnStyle with this menswear fashion idea and stay on top of the Monday madness. If the pressure gets to you, remember to breathe and smile because you've got swag and intellect and no one can take that from you.

Monday is just a day in the week. This is just a phase in your life. Style is eternal. Keep believing in your dreams.

OnStyle: Style Attack

Hello lovelies,

I've been a bit swamped with other things but I didn't forget about your style needs. Say hello to the first 'style attack'; a compilation of styles for your viewing pleasure, to help organise your wardrobe and keep you preoccupied if you're feeling a little bored.

June 2016 Fashion Illustration

Hello lovelies,

How was your May? Mine was cool, made a trip every weekend in May which is why I was a little off the blog. And its amazing how I get messages asking why I haven't been posting much even though y'all barely leave footprints in the comment section or share . . . e . . . t . . . c . . . but thank God for stats which let me know y'all pass through. And thank you all that do take out the time to read, comment and show concern when I don't post in a while. Kisses! 

Anyway, its June and you know what that means! Fashion illustration!!! Now to the inspiration behind the illustration- as you know, I'm not just a blogger or illustrator, I'm . . . more. lol.  I made a kaftan for a client and loved the style so much I decided to illustrate it. I also wanted to try out a set of felt pen I got which I cobined with my Caran D'ache Prismalo Aquarelle watersoluble coloured pencils. I've honestly missed hand illustration but I haven't found the right set of markers to replace my Letraset markers here in Nigeria. If you have ideas of markers you think I should try, feel free to let me know.

Have yourself a June as beautiful as you are.

OnStyle: Happy Children's Day!

Hello lovelies,

It's children's day! Thank God for the kids we have and hope to have. Let's put a smile on their faces, love them, provide for them, keep them safe, be active in their lives, build a relationship with them and support their dreams.  

I've got an OnStyle Special for you all to mark this children's day. I put together some styles and trends from the little ones. Be it denim, a bow tie, agbada or an African print style, the kids have got style and are not afraid to show it. Of course they are dressed by the adults but I must say, they are stealing the spotlight with all that cuteness, got-no-worry smile, fresh skin and young swag.

Enjoy!
