I am back!

Hi Goddesses,

It's been a while since I have been on my blog....this blog. That said, I continued to blog, just under a different name, Pheora or @pheora1 on all social media paltforms.

You are probably like..."what?"..."goddesses?". Yep, that's what I call my followers on my social media platforms. I chose the name because my aim is to empower my communiy...my followers. Ithought...Why be a Princess when you can be Queen?...or better yet, why be Queen when you can be a Goddes?

I know i've been quiet...for nearly 5 years...wow! But, I will keep this blog. This blog is specifically focusing on fashion, while @pheora1 is a blend between fashion and beauty. My goal for the remainer of the year is to show this blog some more love and share my fashion favorites.

If you are new here, welcome! <3

Be sure to follow this blog and my other social media handles.

Promarkers

It's reflection time, a little throwback and recommendation for aspiring fashion designers!. I love my Pro-Markers. I bought them from a company based in the UK, they are a cheaper alternative to a company based in the US. I used to draw in black and white but 2.5 years ago, I decided ti draw in color to illustrate what how the product will look like to a client. I only got the 12 piece set (you get one blender pen to help blend the colors better), but it works just as good because i know how to mix colors (thanks to my high school art class!). SO FAR, I LOVE THESE MARKERS! I also use a lot of colored pencils. 

Here are some of my designs with Promarkers!

Beautiful places

I love beautiful places, especially for the summer. This right here is an Alacati, Turkey I believe. I took the photo from Instagram, it's gorgeous!!!

 

I believe this is in Italy, I am not too sure but it's a beautiful place as well!

Who is the Twama Nambili man or woman? Work and Lifestyle FashionCollage

Having decided to be a Fashion Designer ever since my first sketch at age 11,  I have over the years thought about and decided on the type of woman I want to cater to. So who is the Twama Nambili woman? She is classy, elegant, sophisticated and enjoys the lifestyle of luxury. I want to design for the modern sophisticated woman who wants her clothes and accessories to compliment her lifestyle. She is confident and knows exactly what she wants to achieve in life. I want to start with woman's wear and gradually move into men's. The Twama Nambili man is one who can hold his own next to a Twama Nambili woman in terms of aesthetics and lifestyle.

Chic bags

So I love these amazing bags! Pictures stollen from fabulous instagistas! Thanks for sharing your lovely picks ladies. Now, you know I'm more into classy and sophisticated fashion. I like edge mixed with clean, I like clothes and accessories that leave an impression. If you can find these bags or anything close to it, you will be sure to keep 'me talking! 

For those people who worry saying "it's too fancy, they will judge me", have I got advice for you! NEVER APOLOGIZE FOR SOMETHING YOU'VE EARNED. Besides, people will always judge you; whether you look like Beyonce or homeless. It's in our nature to analyze n draw clonclusion on things, so my advice is for you to be confident comfortable in your own taste and style.

Remember to feed your fashion hunger!!

The New School

Hi my fashion lovers,

You remember I told you that I am entering The New School Competition for a chance to attend my dream school, I had been working hard in finding someone in my country to produce the video and I am greatful my amazing cousin volunteered to help :) I think that the video portrays me an artist and the way I view the world, so I hope that comes across to all who watch it. I will share the link within the next 24 hours. I'm nervous and excited at the same time .  Are you excited?!? 

Before I leave, I want to share some of my favorite pics and looks of the day 

Try this at home and your lips will love you for it. Grapefruit with sugar. 

Keep it stylish and chic from day to night by mixing casual and formal elements in your look. Ripped jeans are still in so don't be afraid to rock miladys! I understand my friends in colder places, you are afraid of this; however you can still work these inspired looks with stylish combat boots, booties, or high heeled boots.

How stunning is this look? I want to try it in my next youtube video, an in-depth tutorial. So you can look forward to a tutorial on this look very soon.

That's all for today! :)

Don't forget to feed your fashion hunger! :-*

Are you with your herd?

Be sure you have a clear vision and you are in an environment that inspires your dreams rather than destroys them. Reevaluate the people in your life and gradeaccordungly

Wedge Sneakers: redefining height and comfort

Hello my fashion lovers!

So today i have a little scoop for you on a fashion trend. 

So recently, in shoe news, there has been a new trend! Ladies and Gent, it's the Wedge Sneakers! I mean the shoe is phenomenal, it's like high heel meet basket ball shoes, but with a modern and sophisticated look! I'm telling you, these shoes are very comfortable and for those shorties out there (like me) who like an extra length and comfort at the same time, you can't go any further than this! This shoe style is popping up everywhere and celebrities such as Rihanna, Beyonce, Kim K and Ciara are also wearing 'em. This is of course not something entirely new, but it's something that is just beginning to gain a spotlight.

Let me know what you think!

Nail Art

EMBRACE YOUR NATURAL HAIR: Hair Pride for Curly Hair Women

Deciding to go natural is only half of the battle. Getting your curls to look their best can often be much more difficult and just plain frustrating. We put together a list of 5 curly hair tips that will completely change your life and the love you have for your curls.

1. Stop Straightening Curlies in numbers agree that the hardest part about being natural is simply doing it. We are often accustomed to changing the texture of our hair, so it is hard to quit and embrace how we look with the hair we were given. Once you can put down the straightening tools and products, you can embrace who you are and work to get the best possible curly version of you. Say “goodbye” to heat damage!
2. Deep Conditioning Moisture is key when being curly and one of the best ways to get moisturized curls is through deep conditioning. Conditioning daily is important, but deep conditioners are made specifically to penetrate your hair’s many layers and give your roots the moisture they need to stay frizz free. Instead of using per-made condition, here is a way to use less chemicals and protect your hair. Use natural oils such as extra virgin olive oil, coconut oil, morocan oil, or organ oil on your hair. Simply rub these products in your hair daily and your hair conditions 10x better than the conditioner you buy. Here is the secret: all the conditioners you purchase have one of more of these oils in them! 
3. Trims Every 6 monthsThe length of time that you can go without a trim depends on the length of your hair, but most stylists will suggest that you come in every six to eight weeks (but i suggest 6 months for those with slow-growing hair). Once you get in the habit of getting your hair trimmed on a regular basis, you will notice your hair looking healthier; something many curly girls strive for.
4. Sleep on a Satin Pillowcase Second day hair is not something every curly girl can get, but one way to improve your odds is by sleeping on a satin pillowcase. Just as you don’t want to use a typical towel to blot your curls, you want to take that same care at night when you are rolling all over the place. The right pillowcase will reduce your frizz in the morning as well as keep your curl pattern intact.
5. Use a Sulfate-Free Shampoo or Co-Wash While all of these habits are extremely important, this one will make such a huge difference in your curls that you’ll never go back to your old ways. If you shampoo in order to cleanse your hair, switch to a sulfate-free shampoo like DevaCurl No-Poo since sulfates can be drying and damaging to the hair.
   Some curly girls are lucky enough that they need no shampoo at all and can get away with only using conditioner (co-washing). If you are not sure if you fall into this category or not, spend one weekend finding out. Your curls might love you for it and you can put that money you typically spend on shampoo towards other great products!

Gatsby Street Style: New Yorkers Celebrate the 1920s

ELLE.COM reports....

They may have happened 90 years ago, but the Roaring '20s are officially back—at least where fashion is concerned. From Ralph Lauren's Downton Abbey-inspired collection to the latest Great Gatsby film (and its many product tie-ins with brands like Tiffany & Co.), it's getting harder to resist the urge for bow lips and fringe.

Enter the Jazz Age Lawn Party, a yearly gathering on New York's Governor's Island. The eighth annual event (which happened last weekend, as well as August 17 and 18) welcomes '20s enthusiasts and features big bands, Charleston dance-offs, pie baking contests, and (this year, especially) a lot of fashion masqueraders. In between gin cocktails and rolled stockings, ELLE.com searched for the best speakeasy style—and found that although vintage is best, '90s slip dresses can also be repurposed. "Don't tell, but mine is from Free People," whispered a fashion-forward party-goer at the picnic. 

She needn't worry: Much like a bootlegger's address, her secret is safe with us...
