Ambition...



Everyone has the ability to dream big, but the steps you take, the sacrifices you are willing to make, the risks you don't mind taking, the pleasure you don't mind loosing, the insults/bad critics you don't mind receiving, the good critics you ensure to put in good use into achieving those dreams is what makes you ambitious.

It's just not enough to say "oh yes, I wanna be this or that". If you are not working towards it, every dream is useless.

Still on the "oleku" trend , I designed and made this. No one told me working with chiffon wasn't child's play (sigh), I dealt with it though, showed it I was here to stay..lol..the drop shoulder wasn't exactly the design of the blouse but great designs come from unplanned mistakes right (talk about ambition *wink*)

Get up today and start working towards achieving your dreams.

New beginning....

First dress I ever made....I finally decided to do something about my passion...I have always had this huge passion for designing and making clothes plus I hate tailors and their disappointments..lol. (Who doesn't).... I'm not exactly a fashion freak, but I do believe everyone is entitled to looking good. I really just wanna dress people and see how glam people look in my dress.

I started after I left uni instead of staying home doing nothing. I started learning with a local tailor...OMG, he is the best...he is not a literate but he is really good at what he is doing and the very first week I started, he made me make a dress and he told me I was goin to make a dress every week, I was so scared, I was like "WHAT!!!!! I don't even have any knowledge on sewing, I don't even know the basics, I just have the passion" but he really made it easy for me.

Thank God for the Oleku trend 😁....it was the easiest thing to start with but I didn't want the exact same colors for the "iro and buba", so I mixed it up by using different colors of the same material.

And thanks to my sister and my friend , who helped modeling it right 😁😁😁😁
