BIG NEWS
Heyy, welcome back to RnR. So its been a while and sure I have a reason but I promise I wouldn't go into that. However, I want to go into the big news, that way we can move on. So in a couple of months Reggie and Regina will have a new web address and a whole new face, so i have been planning a couple new posts for the new start.
However, has anyone noticed how hot it is currently at least in Abuja, I actually have mixed feelings about this, so yes it is frustrating how hot it is i could tear my hair out but it provides my with fodder for really amazing outfits to help you dress cool through the heat, so that i am excited about.
Another update guys for the past few months i have been rocking a wig and lord oh lord is it the best feeling, seriously every girl/woman needs to invest in a really good lace front wig. so here is a picture of me in a wig and dress for the weather currently.
so you obviously can't see the back but it is a deep v back so i get as much air with the heat. So a few tips, try a deep v either at the front or back, no sleeves and probably a cowl neck as well.
Today's post is quite short only because i just wanted to let you know i haven't forgotten you and i love you dolls.....

I QUIT APOLOGISING...
So hey guys and I know, I have been AWOL and like the post headline says, I am going to spare you guys the numerous apologies. I am taking a ten week course at The Fashion Academy, Abuja and we are in the seventh week. So my days are tied up and my nights well, I have home work and I need to sleep and my laptop has issues, I need a new one and I detest typing posts on my phone. But I'll be a lot more dedicated to you guys.
The Fashion Academy is an amazing school and right now I'm taking the course with 14 amazing, smart, creative women. Follow The Fashion Academy on Instagram @tfaabuja.
So now to the style part of the post. The 67th Primetime Emmy Awards was Sunday night and the red carpet was dominated by Zac Posen and Chain details, Cut outs and Off Shoulder sleeves.
Guiliana Rancic, Sarah Paulson, Sarah Hyland all rocked the off shoulder trend and then Taraji P. Henson, Lady Gaga and Amy Poehler rocked the Black dress trend as well as sheer and cut out details. Sofia Vegara killed it in Gold St John and that woman is the poster child for knowing her body and dressing it the right way.
The chain detail was rocked by Taraji, Claire Danes and the Chainmail and sheer trend was slayed by Kerry Washington, Cat Deely. The white trend was rocked by three winners Uzo Aduba, Viola Davis and Regina King who proved how big of a night it was for African American Women in Television. As wells as by Jane the Virgin Star, Gina Rodriguez.
Enjoy the pictures below:

What I Wear To Work
The sun has been hiding behind the clouds and trust me I'm not complaining, the heat is way reduced and the weather has been blissful.
I'm so excited about today's post and yes I teased the picture on Twitter and Instagram @gehnuywhine and @ohahanyohe respectively. There's this article series in the ASOS Magazine entitled What I Wear To Work featuring amazing young professionals and their extremely stylish work clothes, those articles inspired me to write this post. So lets get started,
Erm... I look out my window and look as Nigerian's make their way to work and yes I have seen some outrageous things but when I see professionals like when I visit the Bank, seriously its like a sea of BLACK, GREY and NAVY (sorry for the shouting capitals). Yes I know Black is my favourite colour and I love the different shades of Grey and Navy I'm a little iffy about, but really though why can't Work clothes be a little more fun and a lot more stylish.
I know I haven't told you guys yet that in the last couple of months I registered my business with the Corporate Affairs Commission and I had a meeting with a representative of amazing dress designer JOVANI and became a licensed retailer for JOVANI. Thus, Style by Ohaha my special events dress store was born. Style by Ohaha is a specialized shopping experience. email dresses@stylebyohaha for a personalised shopping experience...
So here are a couple of pictures of What I Wear To Work.
Here's a list of the outfit:
Shirt is EVAN-PICONE
Pants are ASOS
Shoes are STEVEN by STEVE MADDEN
Can I just say how in love I am with the dusty blue of the pants and the basket detail of the shoes at a certain whimsy and so does the KEKE NAPEP in the background.....
Tweet at me and instagram me pictures of what you wear to work using #reggandregina #whatiweartowork . can't wait to see them.....

FESTIVAL TO EVERY DAY
Soooo, around the world festival season is over (by festivals I mean music and art festivals like Coachella, Lagos jazz festival etc.). Sad but true. We all love shopping for festivals right; the hats and shorts and temporary tattoos and the jewellery (rings and cuffs and body chains), the music the air of creativity...... Does that have to end?
This post is about working your festival essentials into your every day wardrobe. Here are a couple of pictures and then we'll talk....
The next outfit is one of my favourite dresses, the stripes are so cool and it is paired with a festival favourite, kimono long line jackets and with some really cute sandals (sandals are MIA) and the sunnies and the rings are asos . (don't ya just love the car behind me?)
N.B
Nigerians.... when you see a chick taking pictures in the middle of the street she is not looking for a taxi and please do not stare...... hey I love my people.

REVAMP REVAMP I'M BACK
Okay okay, I know I have said I'm back a couple of times but this time I mean it. I was away on Vacay and if I were a normal being I would have posted about my vacation, but I'm not normal as previously established .
Well, I am back and from the title and my tweets you know that Reggie and Regina is getting revamped. The original purpose of Reggie and Regina was to embrace and highlight the complexities and layers of a woman's style and so we are going back to that original purpose and so it going to be awesome . I will try to post more often and keep the posts fresh.
Todays blog post will be about working one piece perhaps a dress or a jacket into two or three more outfits using accessories and of course we will be doing this Reggie and Regina style. Check out my Instagram @ohahanyohe to see my layers.....
Todays blog post will feature two dresses worked into two outfits and one is Reggie and the other is Regina .
The first dress is a navy blue lace dress with a faux pearl peter pan collar, I love that dress. the length is just right above the knee and so its still short but with a sophisticated edge. In the first outfit it was paired with a beaded hair crown to add a bit of jewellery (did I tell you I'm not a huge fan of jewellery; I only do ear cuffs and rings), a dark blue had bag with gold accents and for a pop of colour pink court shoes and those shoes match the bag as they too have a gold bar on the heel (a part of New Look's shoe collection which I looove). So Regina is it not?
In the next outfit the navy lace dress was paired with brown combat boots (yes boots make a reoccurrence..... can't help myself), a gold ear cuff and a backpack that I am obsessed with the brown highlights and the tribal print and then fringe just make that backpack steal-able and it also has gold hardware in the studs...... I'm in love.
The next two outfits have the same base of a wine short dress (also slightly above the knee) and in the first outfit it is paired with a flower hair crown (yes hair crowns are my new addiction) which adds a whimsical element to the look but for some edge a spiky silver ear cuff is added for some jewellery and a clutch purse with a big silver buckle in sky blue just adds that pop of colour... and black heels tie the look together.
In the next outfit the red dress is paired with an oversized leather jacket which has sequins on the top for some pizazz and a hat in black and burgundy make it so rock and roll. A pair of healed booties add some glam and sophistication to the look and I am so in love with slouchy bags add that for that effortless look.....
So that's how you make variety with a basic in your closet......
leave your comments, share, email me pictures of you trying this out, I want to see them.
love ya.............
