Men in suits! Ooohh ohhh!

First off can I say how gorgeous the weather is right now!? I mean, it's still a little nippy but the sun is shining oh so beautifully! Actually makes me a little bit more excited to hit the gym (just a little, lol)!

Moving on, how many of you enjoy a man in a good suit? I know I do! Especially when its tailored for the gawds! Yess! Halleloo! I came across this picture on Instagram:

Spring/Summer 2014 "Man About Town" Collection

And instantly I was in love! From the red and white polka dot socks to the matching tie and the contrast of the deep olive green vest and pants. Attention to details is everything and this designer made sure of that in his collection! So of course I had to find out who is the designer! This is Rodney Emeka, the mastermind behind the menswear McMeka:


Rodney Emeka
The Nigerian designer was acknowledged last year as the winner of the MTN Young Designer of the Year award at the 2013 Lagos Fashion & Design Week. But would you believe that he started off with a background in Accounting!? Some people believe that once you start off in one degree or career there is no changing that. An irrevocable (my word of the day!) decree one must follow until the end of days! On the other hand, we have people like Mr. Emeka who breaks out of that mold and shows the world one can do, create or build anything if they set their mind to it! I borrowed (teehee) a few of his pictures from IG to share with you guys! But you can find more of his work on his Tumblr page and Instagram! If you wish to learn more about Rodney Emeka check out the interview by Bella Naija on their webpage. I wonder if he could create a woman's suit? Hhhmm.....
