CROQUIS FRIDAY

When last did I do croquis Friday!!
Well yeyyyy, it's Friyyyayyyyy!! I love Friday's just like a lot of people out there, since it is the beginning of a weekend, yea!
Unfortunately the weekend always goes by so quick!! I wish weekends have seven days while weekdays have 5days!! Who wishes so too!
Okay, I have a file of drawings!!! Plenty of them and definitely I have improved since the last time I posted, hopefully I could post more on Croquis Fridays so you get to see more and most importantly so I can have a go-to soft copy any time any day!!
Okay now, what I want to learn is how to brush up my work to look so clean in soft copies, anyone has any ideas on photoshop??

 You can see how clean and smooth they look, hand drawn and further editted but not to the extent of relieving them of their natural state. I'm I  the only one interested in having the two dresses in the second pic?? They are absolutely gorg!!

For this week, I will post my own works and even still get to feature a talented fashion illustrator.

 Can you see the Afican Print fabric, it is a popular one over here and the illustration of it is perfect

I love Kiara'S works as it is! Clear, good image quality, depicts the African Style and it is truly lovely.

And you see that shadow of a thing I truly want to do it on my illustrations too, I jus cant wrap my head around what photoshop offers all this effects! I REEEEAAALLYYY want it.

ALRIGHT, SEE YOU NEXT WEEK!!!

TWINNING WITH MY AMBASSADOR

There is nothing as good as having this lil girl in my life. My kid's ambassador Aka my cute lil sister. Apart from her love for the camera I feel the camera loves her more than she does.

BERYL TOP LOVE

   Hanging over our bodies is what we call the BERYL TOP usually matched with a similar colour palazzo trouser (but not in our case). I've loved this beautiful top for so long. Originally designed and made by a popular Nigerian designer WANNIFUGA. You can check out her page on Instagram-@wannifuga.

I first saw this on Instagram explore page and fell heads o'er heels. I magically imagined how good it'll look on me.

Too aware of how expensive it'll be to get a set for myself. I promised myself I'd love myself to one.

The drapings seemed so impossible to craft out. I tot about different ways to draft out the pattern until some months ago when I was in serious need of what to wear to my course dinner.

I met a seamstress in the hope that she would understand it best but to my surprise she called it a kimono!! -wow!! I got so angry and decided to do it myself. Luckily, I did get it right. It is one easy pattern, i promise!

HIGH LOW BLOUSE

    I have had orders for this too and boy!!! It is so loved.

I had to make a sample for my ambassador and you can imagine what she asked after the fitting, "can I own it after the photo session?" Puppy dog eyes in place as though I was even going to consider turning down such cute request. I found that so funny. And if you would agree with me it suits her so much 

We couldn't resist taking vain selfies for all I care. With the sun basking us, the joys of our dresses. It doesn't actually matter the length. I've seen some of various length short or long. If u notice my front crop is quite longer cos I cudnt stand showing off my midriff.

SISTERS

Here is a picture with the palazzo

It's all so lovely, you can order on her page if you love it so much. Any colour at all is loooovely!! 

Have a blessed week ahead. *swirls around with beryl top*
