Once again and as always, thank you all so much. Have a great week!
Take Care,
Gbemi & 'Molara
Vendor of the Week
Ms 'Tosin Dekalu, Director - Lady Cobbler
Name of Company:
Lady Cobbler & Co. Nig. Ltd
Lady Cobbler & Co. Nig. Ltd
Nature of your business:
We repair shoes, bags, suitcases, belts and most leather accessories. We also cut keys i.e. house keys, car keys, etc.
Why and when did you decide to take over the company or go into shoe repairs?
I really can't say when I decided to take over Lady Cobbler, but I’d always hang out at my Mum's place of work (Lady Cobbler) as a child after school & during the holidays so I knew all the ins and outs of the business i.e. where my Mum bought her machines, materials from, how she hired staff, how she dealt with customers etc.We (my siblings and I) would actually help count how much money had been made at the end of everyday! I was probably about 18/19 years old when I knew I would definitely open my own L.C one day, I guess growing up in the shop only made it natural for me to go into that line of business when I grew up. That aside I have a passion for shoes as well.
What service does Lady Cobbler provide?
Our services regarding leather repairs include expansion, size reduction, dyeing, top heel, protector and so much more.
Why do you feel couples need your service:
Our services are needed because everyone wears shoes, carry bags, used suitcases, wear belts, etc and all these things will in time be in need of repairs. E.g.: A lot of our customers bring their brand new shoes to us for expansion, to put a protector on the sole, to cut the heel because they are too high and so on & so forth. It is not a necessary service people want but a service people need.
How affordable are your services?
The services we offer are very affordable and range from N500 to N7, 500
Where is Lady Cobbler located?
We are located at Wuraola House, 82 Allen Avenue, Ikeja, Lagos 01-7919051. We are open Monday to Friday from 09.00am to 06.00pm and on Saturdays at 10.00a.m to 04.00p.m
Do you have other branches?
At the moment we do not have branches anywhere else but will be opening a branch in Victoria Island Lagos before the end of this year.

Advice for brides:
My advice is not only for brides but for the groom, bridesmaids, groomsmen, mothers of the bride etc. Brides should look for shoes that reflect their personalities and a shoe that makes her very very comfortable. (I cannot stress that enough). Do not go for a shoe that is not your usual style just because it is your wedding, stick to what you are used too. Classic is always chic; they never go out of fashion. It is okay to accessorize your shoes but keep it simple.

CORRECTION
When we featured Bisi Adedugbe's company 'Simply Beautiful Creations', we posted the wrong telephone number and we have been receiving calls about it. Sorry about that!http://weddingvogue.blogspot.com/2007/11/simply-beautiful-week.html
The correct telephone number for Simply Beautiful is 240-603-0555.

Hey guys nice to have u back.Really missed u girls.Ok wats with the "fine" thing.Orishirishi in that Nigeria.Only in Nigeria will you find silly laws they should spare us jo
Gloves :U wont believe i saw a couples wedding website(www.promiseandpeace.com)not only was the bride wearing gloves ooooo the guys were actually putting on a ladies finger gloves i had to laugh my head off but seriously wats wrong with some people oga ooo
Boobs : I saw a burial in Prime magazine where the ladies practically had their boobs out i was like WTF N worst of all wats up with grown women i mean iya arugbos ooo(Grandmas N Moms) with tattoos on their boobs n showing it all i think they should leave that for their grand kids ojare
Lovely wedding DayoNDayo.Beautiful couple and very well excuted use of colours.Wishing the couple all the best
Thank Goodness u guys are back.. i've been stalking this blog.. been a silent reader but i have decided to start commenting.
Fine 4 praying ke! I sure hope that ban would have been lifted by the time i am getting married cos i intend on offesetting some of my wedding costs that way lol.. not that it would amount to much..but money rain is always good!
Welcome back and keep the pics coming!!!
Goooooooooooooshhhhhhhhh, i've missed u both and I LOOOVE this blog!!! geez, addictive and the rants make me lauuuuuugh!
Gbems & Mollie Mols, me I have just been chilln for una ... I know that getting back must have been ruff especially with Papa passing. Well we thank God all the same.
Ok you have started again this year ... I am not quite sure what the deal is wit Nigeria, they make a law only because they know it definitely would be broken and more "Egunje" will come from trying to stay out of "Alagbon" or "kirikiri" than if they should just come and camp out at the party looking for small chops ... Wow. People I say just put the money in d envelope and dont let the curazee Police Force fine you 50k for spraying only 2k ... ha ha
Ok I think we went over this gloves things last year ... My opinion, it is a big fat NO NO NO! it does not look kosher and definitely does not complement the wedding frock and guys c'mon now? STOP IT! Don't let your bride to be's bad fashion sense begin to influence you.
And ladies keep your boobies in check, makes u look like TARTS! U will not catch fish that way and in the same vein dressing like a school marm is equally a turn off, so keep it simple and classy. If it is good for the club, then it is not good for your friends wedding/party/engagement/burial or whatever.
U guys check out thhis website:
www.chiomaandakolisa.com
U need to get them on ur website ... Too Too beautiful couple
Aawww the love the pictures from Dayo and Dayo's wedding.. they are so mnatural and they make such a lovely couple. May God Aalmighty bless thier union!!
OK now im really feeling ur rant about ladies showing of breast instead of cleavage. I have witnessed a couple of eye popping accidents at weddings and dont know why women cant just sew asoebi which is trendy and classy and yet not accident prone....lol
I have never been a fun of gloves as part of wedding accessories... i think they look kinds surgical after a while....lol. i honestly think think that they are definately a no no and so played out.
Welcome bk girls...lovely wedding pics of Dayo and Dayo...wishing them a happy married life
Won't say anythin more abt the rants...but i definitely agree with all ur rants....
Hmm abt the spraying..why now? wat's d reasoning behind it?? I hope it's not the old story of abusing the naira 'cos they haven't stopped market women from squeezing the naira and putting it wherever neither ve they stopped bus conductors frm abusing the naira...lol..
@ Anon 11:51 yeah Chioma and Akolisa's website is really nice..actually know the guy, very lovely wedding pics...
Anyways stumbled on d few wedding webbies so enjoy y'all...lol

I was wondering if you guys know where dayo and dayo had their reception in Ibadan. Thanks.
Can't wait til the next update.
lol @ finger gloves. Naija pple never kill pesin finish.
hehehe....and i thought grooms wearing gloves was a thing of the past. Can't believe some people still wear that thing at this age.
About the money spraying, i was really shocked too when i heard about it. Even myself and my mum were still talking about it two days ago and apparently u can spray but u can't let the money to stay on the ground like the way igbo people spray(no offence to my igbo 'bredas & sistehs' o).
Chaai...i still remember Lady Cobbler like yesterday. They used to be the IT then. I even still remember the theme song to their advert.
I think the spraying law is STUPID! It is OUR CULTURE! We need to stop trying to copy what we see in the west...geez! Personally, I'm not into it and I don't plan on being sprayed at my wedding but people that do should be allowed to. Spraying does not de-value the Naira, corruption does.
