Grey Winter

December 30, 2015

The weather has been very inconsistent lately, one minute it feels like an Indian summer with some sun and then it gets extremely windy, on this particular day it was very windy! I was gifted grey over the knee high suede boots from Schuh to celebrate the Christmas season. I have been looking for a similar pair of boots that resemble the Stuart Weitzman classic knee high boots as those are way out of my budget. Schuh’s selection were the perfect alternative! I kept warm and styled the boots with a grey jumper and grey coat keeping in with the grey colour pallet theme.

I can’t believe it’s the end of 2015, another year has passed. This year has been a year of growth, experiences that are invaluable and lessons that have been difficult but I pushed through. As much as I feel like I am not where I want to be and haven’t reached my fullest potential, I am more than grateful for my current achievements with my blog, my career and my personal life. I have laughed more than I have cried, I have taken more risks than have been safe and I have leaned on God more than leaning on worldly things. There are still battles I deal with but with God anything is possible. Sometimes it is hard to be happy with where you are because you want so much more for yourself but I am learning to enjoy the moment and enjoy the journey, I hope you will too for your life!

A BIG THANK YOU to each and every one of you who have supported my blog and liked any of pictures on socials, emailed me with such positive words, it is greatly appreciated. The more I achieve I will continue to help others through advice and by any means necessary! I can’t wait to show you and launch what I am currently planning, as I have realised my talent is bigger than me and I want to do my best to share and help others!

2016 – I plan to do what I said I would do, with the guidance and blessing from the man upstairs and continue on the road of being the best version of me and living the fullest life possible of course in style!

Happy New Year guys!

Wolford Essentials

December 22, 2015

It is that time of year where we reflect on how our year has been, what went good and what went bad and what our most important learning’s. On a positive note theirs loads of parties and festivities to attend as we reach the New Year!

Styling key Wolford essentials that I also recently wore while on holiday in Miami it also is a great look for any dinner party/festivity event you may be attending, reason why? It is simple, classic and compliments your shape. The Wolford Valencia skirt is a phenomenal skirt because it feels strong but actually is a light material to wear that shapes you from your waistline down for the perfect hourglass shape. It is one of Wolford’s most desirable pieces from their ready-to-wear range. A simple elegant pencil skirt with a wide shape and control waistband that unobtrusively ensures a perfect, feminine figure! Both pieces you can create a variety of looks, with a diverse colour range to choose from.

I paired the skirt with another popular Wolford favourite, the Mat De Luxe Forming String Body. It is seductively shaped to hug around your waist and stomach and sits to snitch in your waist. I love that it makes me feel sexy and comfortable, which is extremely important.

If you like this look, shop both pieces here!
