I am Idu, playfully called Iduuuuu by some including myself. I'm a mother. 6th child of a High School Principal / Education Inspector Mom and a Medical Doctor Dad. 

Aside from family I have other loves. Teaching sits pretty at the top of the list, naturally. Grandpa was also a teacher before mom, and never stopped gushing about his own teachers back in 19 'ot' 9 (1909) like he'd tell us. Hilarious! Gotta love working with kids, having popped out 4 myself.

My second love is none other than F F F Fashion. When I am done teaching school I live in a fashion bubble (my happy place) and dream up all sorts of glam. I adore fashion shame on me! My love affair with fashion first took root when I was a kid playing with dolls. I enjoy travelling and even though I'm petrified of flying I have literally travelled the world with my husband, loving and connecting to style/fashion from all over.

Anyways for years I've been urged to start a fashion/lifestyle blog. I feel like I'm finally ready to ride the waves. There's one thing I never get tired of and that's celebrating women who live life to the fullest. I can't think of anything more inspiring than an array of stylish, beautiful and accomplished women. My vision is to inspire and empower women and men for that matter. A glam/fashionable life style is at your fingertips before, during and especially after raising kids. Can I get an Amen? I plan on having fun on this platform sharing straight up outfit posts showcasing my style, sneak peeks of things I do and places I visit. The moment it stops being fun for me the curtains will come down but for now, I'll pick up my pen and paper, scratch that. I'll put my fingers to keys. Let's have fun exploring my new niche, this brand new baby I just birthed...
