CALVIN KLEIN NOW SAYING THEY NEVER SAID LUPITA'S DRESS WAS WORTH $150K

When word came outt that Lupita's Oscars dress was worth a hefty $150k because of the handmade Akoya pearls on it, the dress designer, Calvin Klein didn't come out to refute the allegations but now that one thief has revealed the pearls were worthless....hehe...they are now saying they never said the dress was worth that much or that the pearls were real. They are blaming Lupita's publicist for that misinformation...lol. Read the full story from TMZ below

It's turning into the greatest Oscar story in years. Lupita Nyong'o's stolen Oscar dress -- which was reportedly worth between $150,000 and $10 MILLION -- appears to be all smoke and mirrors.

TMZ broke the story ... the thief called us Friday afternoon and said he took 2 of the pearls down to the Garment District in L.A. and learned they were fake. That's when he returned the dress to the hotel.

Law enforcement sources tell us ... Calvin Klein's people never told them if the pearls were real or fake. We're told the only person who represented the pearls as real and valued the dress at $150K was Lupita's stylist.More below...

THE ALLURE OF THE WRAP DRESS

There are so many reasons why womenare passionately in love with the wrap dress making it one of the trends that will never go out of style.

But here are a few
1-It suits all sizes
Ofcourse it looks better on plus size figures,but the fact that it comes with a belt means that its adjustable to fit perfectly on women of all sizes.
2-It can make it to the workplace as well as it can to a party.

Every women wants that one dress that she can wear anywhere and not be bothered with having to change.Its for this reason that we think the wrap dress is an absolute godsend because it makes the transition from day to evening so perfectly.
3-It flatters a woman's curves
From revealing cleavage to hugging your curves,the wrap dress is one to show off your womanly bits when you want to,say for that date night.
4-Its very easy to wear,there is no clutter,or mess to deal with and also very easy to remove.

TRENDS WE LOVE:THE DOUBLE SLIT DRESS

Daring clothes are very big this season.And now we have not just the single slit dress, but the double slit dress as well.This new trend has dominated the streets as much as it is ruling the runways and now everyone wants a piece of it.
Given the level of conservativeness in this country its important that you wear something underneath this dress lest you risk being lynched by boda boda men.You can get a pair of short shorts from owino for less than 10k to wear underneath this dress, for a day look.If you cant get a pair of these a micro mini skirt should be able do the trick as well.
At night you are free to let all loose especially if you have a car.

Opt for the double slit dress and flaunt some thigh in style.
