Floral & Fringe.
9:45:00 amHello lovelies! Welcome back to my blog. I had to look at my calendar twice today to make sure today's date was correct. Omg! September is almost gone. Like it all happened in 2 weeks. This time really waits for no one oh! Anywho, how have you all been? Thank God another weekend is here. Hopefully, you'll get to rest a bit. I've been doing well over here. Trying to juggle quite a few things at the same time and I barely get enough sleep at night because that's when I work and concentrate better. Sometimes, I wonder how I function during the daytime but I guess it's my nature. Now, on to today's post.
Firstly, I'm really glad that I'm making the most use of what I have to put up my style posts. The thing is, you have to maximize the little you have till you get to your desired destination. There's no such thing as perfect timing. Start NOW. That being said, I'd like to appreciate all the support and encouragement shown in my first style post here , y'all are the real mvps.
So today's outfit is a casual one. It's something you can wear to work on a Friday and to hangout with friends. I got this flared pants as a gift and at it was love at first sight. I began dreaming of a million and one ways to style it and this is one of them.
I simply paired it with a sleeveless floral top and tucked it in to give the outfit an illusion of a jumpsuit. Then again, I love to tuck in a lot so I grabbed the opportunity.lol.
I wanted to give the look a little bit of edge and colour so I opted for my brown fringe bag and vintage sandals. Fringe items are making a lot of appearances in the fashion scene of recent, ranging from shoes, dresses, jackets, kimonos, just name it. I'm pretty sure other colours like red would have worked but I wanted to keep the outfit in a neutral pallet. I like to play it safe with colours but I'm trying to mix things up a bit these days.
I kept my accessories minimal with just a bracelet, wrist watch and petal shaped earrings to match my top. If there's one thing I can't be caught without, it's a wrist watch. It just gives me this sense of urgency and responsibility...can't really explain it.
The sun was giving me so much life in this shoot and I didn't do a lot of editing coz we all know the sun is your best filter. Hehe!
I'm a proud repeat offender so best believe y'all are going to see these pants make quite a few appearances here. My sandals are thrifted, same as my top and handbag. I love thrift shopping yo! That's where the most unique things are found and for unbelievably affordable prices.
A big shout out to my darling friend Ebere for taking me these amazing pictures. I'm yet to find a photographer and I'm still working on that.
So tell me, do you like my outfit? What would you change about it? Is it something you'd try out? I'd love to hear how you'd style the different pieces put together. Please feel free to leave me your comments in the comments section below. It's always a pleasure hearing from you.
