Like most
women, I feel good when I look good. I cannot say for certain how it
works for others, but for me, on those blessed days that I do manage a
good look, I grow inches taller with every positive remark on my looks.
Now, I am one of those that walk with my head “drooping'' 80% of the
time, - you know like I'm going to fall or trip if I don't do a “good''
job of watching my feet. This policing of my footsteps N-E-V-E-R happens
on the “look good'', “feel good'' days. On such days, my head stands
straight on my neck & when I say hello, Good morning! It has a different
pitch to it.
Overtime however, I realize that looking well for work on Mondays -
Fridays and weekends has become a tough call. I could manage the good
looks on an average of twice a week & to muster that feat is as tough as
preparations for a major league game! Why? It all boils down to one
thing: C-H-O-I-C-E-S. Or more appropriately, the lack of it.

Where
do I get that purple bag that I need to ''complete'' my purple
ensemble?
-
My
office end of year party is next week and I don't have a clue as to
where to get the right outfit for it?
-
Where
do I get the perfect dress for that cocktail?
-
Who in
God's Holy name knows where I can get Dumond shoes in Lagos?
-
I got
these lovely Louis Vuitton slippers from my last trip to Paris, I
have searched high and low for a bag to complement it and it looks
impossible, what am I going to do?
These are
all questions we seek to answer from the stable of FrancescaMay
magazine.
From the award winning interview with the ageless queen of fashion,
Erelu Abiola Dosunmu, to style and stars, featuring the style diary of a
superstar, we have your questions answered.
Mobos is one lady you will be glad you know, I stumbled on her outlet on
a shopping (and tiring) day & I have not been let down ever since.
Fashionable sports and strut your stuff are the icing on the cake. With
life talk, we hope that you get an energy dose to go get it!
The fashion directory properly so called is just what you've been
waiting for, you only need to see the all glossy, colour infused and
beauty inspiring ensemble and you will agree with me. What you have in
your fashion directory is your shopping made easy, you only need to look
through and voila!
Most of what we have featured in this edition is the prêt-a-porter
(ready to wear) collections & a spattering of indigenous designs from
Lagos. However we will by God's special grace bring more from outside
Lagos in subsequent editions so that you can shop in Abuja from your
Lagos office! (IT'S A PROMISE WE INTEND TO KEEP) Did I hear
w-o-n-d-e-r-f-u-l! May God help us all.
