You know I’ve had an itch to wear red a lot lately but red on red on red! An overdose of drama and glamour. An aesthetic delight. Bold, fiery, bright and beautiful if I say so myself, (I said that here too, hehe). Ok ok, how about - RAVISHING. SEXY. It’s been nothing short of an amazing month, a celebration of me, a celebration of red. 

Can I just gush some more? This look in my opinion is so absurdly wonderful! Stellar! Divine! Perfect! Jaw droopingly beautiful! Speaks volumes without saying a word. I could go on and on. How else would you describe it? Total score right? Thanks to my friend Dwight of Vindictive By D Anthony for this piece. If you follow me on the gram, you should have seen a clip of the top in the making, amazing!

I honestly won’t mind waking up like this every morning. On matching red luxurious beddings drowned in lots and lots of frilly red pillows. A fresh scent from a bouquet of long stem red roses filling the air. Gosh how I love red roses. And how enchanting the color red is becoming from where I stand. I feel me drifting off in a red world. Eyes shut with only red in vision. Come back Idu! Hehe.

Wearing one shade head to toe isn’t a no-no, it’s actually encouraged. How I love a monochrome look and how I have mastered the art of colorful dressing but never feel like red is my thing. But I've seen monochrome red looks appear so impeccable. If you choose to, you may tone reds down with neutrals to avoid looking over done. I did, with the lip color.

Are you digging it? Did your heart literally skip a couple beats? I bet you can’t help but love it too, just like me. 

The month that comes 'in like a lion and out like a lamb' is coming to a close. I chose to begin and end my birth month dressed in red. Like I stated earlier, it’s been an amazing March despite being a lil sick two weeks ago. Thanks again for all the goodwill.

Heading out on vacation to Istanbul and Santorini tomorrow and look forward to having great Spring Break getaway with my friend. 

You know what else I look forward to? Drinking wine! I drink a glass of red wine every evening but I gave up that ritual for lent. As lent comes to a close, I look forward to enjoying some wine again. Tomorrow. It’s a date. Inflight. I’m all bright eyed and bushy tailed. Let’s go!

…back to street style looks.

I get a lot of questions on how/where to purchase Vindictive pieces. The are available, hit me up on the gram, here or on fb.

Have a very happy Easter dressed in gorgeous pastels.

By the way, tea anyone?

  17. you look sensational dressed in all red...I was going to say in that red dress but is a dress or is it a top and a skirt? I remember seeing the top part on instagram and I couldn't wait to see it here! Anyway, this "dress" is such a stand out piece, so dramatic and fashion forward...I love its cuts, you sure rock it!

    Great choice starting and ending the month with red. It is a wonderful colour, so feminine and bold! I'm still getting over my cold, so I'm a bit behind....but in time to wish you a happy Easter!

    Enjoy your holiday and spring break!

  49. I always shy away from being in one colour, head to toe, except when it comes to black hehehe. But here you are ever so lovely in red, changing my perspective on this. I just adore this whole look. The top is utterly resplendent and such a work of art. I need to go search for this Insta clip now. I'm sad I missed it, I'm hardly ever on these days. Instagram has become such a chore lately and now with these changes they want to implement, it's making it even less attractive to me.
