A friend who had sojourned overseas for about four years called recently to inquire what is buzzing on the Nigerian fashion scene. Of course, my response was simply roses as accessories.
Just as the saying goes that diamonds are a girl’s best friend, so roses appeal a lot to women. Whether it is the rose flower, rose scented perfumes or in form of accessories, women would love them.

But have you ever thought of dressing up without any accessories? Bland and boring?

Well, dressing is simply incomplete without accessories. And for style-conscious women, they can’t do without them
Accessories like roses are vintage pieces that never go out of fashion.

Their relevance soars from generation to generation. In the pre-independence era, our grandmothers adored them as fashion accessories. The 70’s and 80’s ladies also added a touch of drama and verve to their sense of style.
Today, roses are making a bold come-back into the fashion circle. They come in bold and bright colours giving you that irresistible touch of finesse.

Celebrities were out and about recently in town all accessorized in lovely pieces of rose.
