Introducing; Guest Post--Different Shades of the Red Carpet

Hope the week started out good everyone?

 Today I want to introduce a guest post on my blog,the author's name Simi and she would like to contribute and share with us some of her thoughts and ideas. She is originally from Nigeria, and she would be mostly talking about Nigerian concepts, so she would try to explain in deets some of the concepts so that the non Nigerian readers would have an easy flow of things. 
Hope you enjoy and relate to her article, don't hesitate to drop a comment. xx 

                       Different Shades of the Red carpet
                                -- Simi O. 

  

"So I’m sitting on my bed and going through pictures of what our dear ol’ celebrities wore to the Cannes Film Festival that was recently held in France and in my head I can hear Joan Rivers (who everyone loves to hate) scream out at some of the ridiculously dressed stars. Personally, I love Joan. She has no problem telling you what you’re wearing is total rubbish. If only we had our very own “Joan Rivers” for our Nigerian Fashion Police… Although I think Patience Ozorkwor would be a perfect fit. Yes? No?(for non-Nigerian readers, Patience Ozokwor is a Nigerian actress, she's known to be very bold like Rivers)
   
       If we did have a Fashion Police show back home and it wasn't airing on TV stations like NTA, Channels, or OGTV, (major TV stations in Nigeria) the presenters would probably be people who also need good fashion skills…it’ll be a case of the pot calling an electric kettle black. I remember watching a Nigerian imitation of E!’s Fashion Police a while back and literately rolling on the floor with laughter! So, we shall begin by comparing the clothes that celebrities wore to some Nigerian Red Carpet events to those of other celebrities in Hollywood  and you can be “Joan Rivers” for a few minutes…"

Who says you cannot wear an outfit twice?!?

I have noticed over time that people, mostly fashionista and celebs feel that it is wrong to repeat an outfit or even an item of clothing. Well definitely everyone has their own opinion, but I personally feel it does not really make any sense. Why would I buy an item of clothing only to wear it once and do away with it? Yes I know i'm not a celebrity , but even celebs should not have to go through the whole pain of trying not to be caught in the same clothing twice because of the media. That's all kinds of wrong! There are plenty ways to re rock and switch up an outfit, so why do away with em' when you can have plenty do overs with em'?

Anyhoo while some celebs think its wrong to repeat, some dont care and have rerocked their clothing over again. Below are a couple photos of celebs rerocking their outfits.

(p.s, if you do not read the caption under each photo, you might miss the point.)

Khloe Kardashian was spotted in this casual yet chic K-DASH maxi dress while running errands (bottom) on May 15, 2012. However, this wasn't the last time Khloe was snapped sporting this look...on June 19, 2012, Khloe Kardashian recycled her maxi dress for another day. (left) Freshening up her look with a denim jacket by JET and bright a red Birkin bag, Khloe gave her maxi a second life as she caught a flight out of LAX.
