What is a shirtdress, you ask? It’s literally exactly what it sounds like: a shirt that is long enough to be considered a dress. A typical shirtdress looks like a long button-down shirt, and you can either buy them that way or get creative and make your own out of an over-sized shirt.

CWP Style: Female "Agbada" is Trending!

Hi lovilies, How are you doing this beautiful morning? Its another Tuesday; 

you how we do it right here huh? 

Have you notice that ladies are stepping out in agbada and they are rocking it 

like it was originally meant for them. 

(Agbada is a type of flowing wide sleeved robe, usually decorated with embroidery, 

which is worn mostly in the western part Nigeria by important men, such as kings and 
chiefs, and on ceremonial occasions like weddings and funerals). 

The Female agbada trend is worth trying, that is if you can take the risk and still come out stylish. Agbada is pretty hard to rock even for the men, 

but if you can go for something fitted and not too flowing, 

you should be able to pull this "stunt".*smiles*

check out some ladies in agbada below....
