LONG COATS/KIMONO WILL NEVER GO OUT OF FASHION+MY COMPLETE SUNDAY LOOK.{PHOTOS}.

Image
            Long coats will never go out of fashion again because it came back with full force with a lot of different design and wearable material textures.Long coat in form of a robe or kimono was mostly worn at home or during cold weather but now,it is well designed and redefined that people now wear it everywhere including the red carpet.The good thing about this new trend of long coat is that you can wear a very simple outfit,but once you wear the long coat or Kimono,it transforms your look from looking ordinary to extra-ordinary.Just because of the Nigerian weather I decided to use our African wax to make a long coat,with green lining,and a short above the kneel strap gown which I wore on sunday Easter day.I wore nude shoes,carried a black bag,but my necklace is green,mixed with white pearl to give it a unique look.Remember no matter how you bought your outfit/cloth,if you don't style it very well,your expensive cloth might look cheap.More photos below.

       Thomas Markle, 73, knows hundreds of millions of people across the world will see his daughter, Meghan, 36, marry Prince Harry on May 19. The former Hollywood lighting director apparently approves of the nuptials because Harry “worships the ground she walks on.” But family members claim the reclusive 73-year-old, from Rosario Beach, Mexico, will be nervous ahead of the big day. However, Thomas Markle hopes to shake off health fears, including a knee injury, to attend the ceremony at St George’s Chapel in Windsor. It had even been suggested that Meghan might have both her parents, who married in 1980, one year before the actor’s birth, give her away at the lavish reception. Royal biographer Andrew Morton has written a book, ‘Meghan: A Hollywood Princess,’ about the family relationship. In Mr Morton’s book, Thomas Markle Jr said: “I know how proud he will be to take her arm and walk her down that aisle. “But I also know how terrified he will be.“If he do
