Betty's Weekly Banter : Who is a Blesser ?

Image
I didn't give Betty the permission to apologize for late posts today . Let's just go right into it ! Hi guys today I'd be talking about the new trending word #blesser.. I know... I recently also just stumbled on this word, while some of you might already know the meaning, but for the sake of people that might have never heard the term blesser before, it refers to an older man that 'spoils' a younger lady financially, that is the blesser takes care of the finances of the blessed. Hehe..  It is what most of us usually or typically refer to as sugar daddies. The term blesser is mostly used in South Africa right now and on social medias, the ones that use this word believe that there's a slight difference btw a blesser and a sugar daddy, a blesser is assumed to be slightly richer than a sugar daddy, I don't know how they reached that conclusion but that's the belief. The term blesser has now officially become the in thing. The relationship between a bles

My new Obsession With African Designers

I love African Designers and I can not lie - if this line didn't come out as a particular song, I'm your aunty now. Working with an awesome site like 360nobs in the fashion department I see a lot of awesome designers from Africa - Nigerians to be specific.

#AFWN2016: Much ado about Snap-chat filters

Image
I got to my press conference that was scheduled for 11am by 1pm and my boss was there before me.  Not entirely my fault spent 3 hours on the road within VI!!! Talk about playing yourself.... I didn't wear make up but I took some pictures in the car.... Much ado about snap-chat filters ; My Olodo self didn't adjust my jumpsuit right, so no full photo... maybe I'll share later.

Big week for me!

I made my way to the fashion world some months back, and i'll be attending my first fashion week.  I pray I take sensible pictures & I find a suitable glam squad - so help me gawd!!! For now I have a press conference tomorrow and I don't even have anything to wear... while I sort that out, I'll be working on some stuffs.  Wish me luck...

#MidweekFlow: Post/Snap and delete

Image
Public display of affection isn't my thing, I'm not going to be holding hands and kissing about the place. I think it has a lot to do with my past relationships & my nature. I have never really done the matching t-shirts long birthday posts & cute videos to share on social media - because who asked me . But I take pictures and make videos with whomever i'm officially seeing share it with my friends ,look over it and stuff. When I make a decision to get into a relationship I don't regret it .... I wrote some lovely things about my ex on here I wont delete now because we ain't together no more - That's even if my new partner requests for that. My point is, don't post if you'll delete, live for today & in the moment. I was going through my gallery this morning and it's flooded with pictures of le ex, so I made up my mind not to delete it... so no post/ snap and delete for me.

#RandomTuesday : Sanitary pads < Tampons

Image
First!!! Growing up Nigerian, you get your period and they buy you "always" (Made in Nigeria) and if your parents love maybe you'll get imported sanitary pads. See ehn, the first few times I used pink always (now old one) I spent the better part of my time washing school uniform and tying sweater around my waist - majorly because my flow was heavy but blue was for big girls. And the reaction the dusty ess pads gave me wasn't even to be seen. Finally my mum saw me one day and just took me to a major supermarket and we found the most expensive cotton pad & the fairy tale begun. Then when I thought I have found my last bus stop, I had to use tampons one Christmas holiday I spent with my 'Janded' cousins. That day I went into the store with my last 5k and bought 4 boxes of tampax & panty liner... Tampons are great! Don't let anyone tell you tampons will pop your cherry it won't. Well I'll like to say I never looked back but, pove

#BlackgirlMagic: Alicia Keys

Image
Alicia Keys really inspired me over the weekend, talking about redefining beauty. I stopped wearing make up back in January - I can't say I stopped completely if the occasion calls for it, I get glammed up. Any ways I have no problem with make up, I don't even care how full the face is done, I just prefer not to wear and it's very encouraging that Alicia is doing this. Because I loved her photo shoot so much et me share some pictures of Alicia Keys without make up & one of myself ! I know I said one.. lol
