Double Up With Flare Denim

January 15, 2017

One of my newest purchases is a paire of denim flares. I am currently loving denim especially flared denim! It is a sassy upgrade to regular pair of jeans, adding some variety. I saw these jeans on Miss Guided and I instantly gravitated towards the flared detail at the bottom. And I also bought a fringe shoulder jumper from Zara. I thought it was a perfect outfit combo to put together that works well. Simple sexy and sassy. (I didn’t mean to rhyme here lol)

I want to really enjoy the process of evolving whether it is on trend or not and build key staple piece that will last forever in my wardrobe. This explains my first style post of 2017 that I want to share with you and hope it inspires you to get back to your core style essence and just enjoy building your core wardrobe!

Personal Style – For me personally this year I want to not compromise my style and just be me. I think sometimes as a blogger you feel to follow trends. Sometimes it doesn’t always fit well with your individual style. And that is OK!

For example flare trousers may not work for you but you can take some inspiration by the colour palette of the look. Or perhaps switch the flare for baggy jeans or a skinny fit. Nothing never has to be taken as identical but if there is an aspect of my style that you gravitate too, then I am doing something right here LOL.

I also want to share my health and fitness journey with you guys too!

I started the gym at the end of 2016 and it is something I have been really enjoying and plan on weaving into my life for good!

Favourite Fashion Moments And Lessons Of 2016!

December 31, 2016

Favourite Fashion Moments and Lessons Of 2016…Well what a year 2016 has been!

Personally I have grown up so much, mentally, spiritually and emotionally. I have been tested many times, fallen flat on my face and had to pick myself back up again!

In all of my experiences this year, I feel I am at my strongest and ready to conquer 2017 like never before. I think I have learnt that, certain things need to happen in your life for you to evolve. Whether good or bad experiences they need to happen for you to come out on the other side. That is okay! Trials build character and help execute the positive, it may not look like it when you are in the midst of it but there will always be light after darkness and that is the beauty in life!

I had a chance to round up 2016 and reflect back on my destiny shifting half way through the year. Chatting with Pepper Your Talk. It is the most honest I have been about my career and hope it can help you! Check it out here.

Mesh Fits and Rip’s

December 1, 2016

Mesh fits and rip’s is all that it is, but it is impactful. Mixing and matching textures always results for a stylish, chic look. This is more of a cosy girl vibe that I am channelling but I like it. At the core of my style, feminine fits is home, but I always like to challenge myself to stretch myself with a new-normal.

I got these white ripped jeans from ASOSs not too long ago and I have worn them more than a doesn’t times. They are not so tight and not too baggy. Just right for the casual fit I have been looking for. I styled it with a mesh body from Wolford as it adds a sexy flare compared to just wearing general T-shirt. Of course Vans is the ultimate cosy fit footwear that works with everything so I threw them on, as I wear them most of the time.

Black and white is classic and perfect colour combo for this London winter. It is so cold, I can’t express it enough!

Random Thought – Authenticity

In the social world that we live in, it seems so easy for people to get caught up, follow suit and becomes sheep! I say this because as bloggers and influencers becoming the ‘in’ thing. People see this as easy and try to do anything to fit in and perceive the same image, lifestyle. Or even more commonly, get instant gratitude that the likes of Instagram gives people.

For me personally nothing feels more liberating that enjoying who you are and what you stand for. Not wanting to confirm and stand firm behind your beliefs, contrary to what may be popular or popping on the ‘gram’. Purpose over popularity! This is the key, in everything you do, embody and stand for purpose. That ignites authenticity and stability in that. With that being said…Please NEVER believe the hype!

The Return Of The Puffa Jacket

November 22, 2016

My favourite winter purchase is The Puffa Jacket! The perfect combinatin of padding, warm and a large fit. The puffa jacket is an all-rounder that you will wear every day. cool and comfortable which is the vibe I have been channelling this winter.

Puffa coats is so easy to style because you don’t have to be polished with your look. I typically wear my puffa with exactly how I styled it below. I wore leather pants which are so chic for winter, along with my leather open-toe boots from Topshop. These are really cool and chic adding a little edge when I wear them. I also bought t-shirts from Footlocker which are perfect to throw on to stye with trousers. Sometimes a logo t-shirt gives a little bit more life to an outfit, dont you think? This Adidas T-shirt is from Footlocker they have a deal on currently with 2 for £20.00! Thank me later 🙂

Ending of 2016 – Random Thoughts To Share…

I feel at peace with were 2016 has taken me. Honestly, it has not been easy at all!

It’s been challenging, hard, tough to say the least. There were times this year that I dealt with anxiety and rejection. Through this time I have built strength, knowing myself deeper and proud with what I have achieved so far in my career. The possibilities are endless! And that’s what should stick when you’re in the midst of adversity.

Now I feel I can achieve anything! Never give up guys, NEVER. Eventually you will get there.

If my thoughts resonates with you, feel free hit me up as I want to use my platform to support and share my journey with you guys and start more conversations!

Turtle Neck – Keeping warm and sexy!

November 14, 2016

Turtle neck vibes are the perfect go to for keeping warm, as the coldness is no joke in these London streets! And it got colder quicker than anyone expected this year.

This week I’m sharing a simple chic casual winter look that I wore recently. A black simple ribbed turtle neck from Mango that i got last winter. Along with these sexy, thigh-high slit culottes from Miss guided. I got these in time from my end of summer trip to New York this September, and they are very flexible to style with different looks. I know what you’re thinking? It’s cold though. And that’s my point keeping sexy and warm and testing at times! The things you do at this young age for the love of style lol.

This season I really have played with casual style looks and really enjoy being comfortable. In my last two points I have highlighted this. My everyday looks tends to be my Nike Air Force 1’s, with jeans a turtle neck and my New Zara Puffa coat.

I sometimes play with the types of tops or jumpers and make it more feminine and sexy depending on where I’m going, just like this look.

I have been really reflective for the later of the year. A lot of things haven’t worked out and a lot of things have. I guess that is life, nothing is ever really predictable. I know I just changed the subject of this style post. It’s important I always drop an aspect of substance to blogging and being a ‘fashionista’ so to speak. There is so much more to me then fashion, I’m a marketer, working in the creative industries and building a name behind the scenes. I definitely will be sharing and putting more content on here of projects. Which will be more of projects that I am working on and my business interests.

Fall Shimmer – Keeping chic and sassy during winter!

November 3, 2016

Carrying on with my comfortable style winter looks, I came across this stunning shimmer, glittery jumper dress from Zara. It is such a beautiful one piece that you can throw on and feel glam. I did wear this out with ripped jeans and it looked very chic. For you guys I wanted to style it with velvet boots.

I don’t usually wear much glitter and shimmer dressy looks but I had to, when I saw this jumper dress. Pairing the dress with a diamond look choker, it really adds sass and chic styling to the overall look. Of course ankle boots are a huge trend this winter and I am really into chunky comfortable heels, so it was an easy decision to purchase these boots!

Fall Trends This Season is…

Keeping it simple and comfortable for the winter adding a bit of shimmer, glitz and glam can sass up any everyday outfit.

Last winter I actually put together a cool casual look here too.

I actually have a few favourite winter looks from last year, so I am going to share with you another few of my top 2015 winter style post:

Starting with Black 101, as its states an all-black casual look wearing my favourite Nike high top air forces. Thirdly an all grey look featuring Schuch knew high boots which I still wear today!

Classy Comforts! – Fashion can be comfortable ladies!

October 25, 2016

Fashion is supposed to be comfortable right? Well lately I have felt so uncomfortable in some of my favourite pieces. I mostly wear jeans and they are all slim fits, which are really tight and to be honest I am over it. In the middle of my days I end up feeling irritated and uncomfortable in all these fitted clothes that I love so much. Fashion can be comfortbale ladies thats where classy comforts comes in!

Want to know why? Its getting cold in London and I am now an advocate for comfort at its best, wearing jumpers, loose fitting bottoms and trainers!!!

When I was experimenting with style as a student, I always wanted to look girly and the perfect idea what of a ‘women’ was always trying to wear heels and rock feminine fits that hugged my body. I will always love that look but as life is taking full steam ahead I don’t have time to be feeling sexy and uncomfortable. I don’t want to feel secluded in clothes and restricted to how I move. This is were my classy comforts Inspirationcomes in, I am gradually finding my way to dress with feminine fits that suit my style but most importantly are COMFORTABLE.

Current Vibes

So I styled Missguided Pyjama style loose fitting trousers white plain Asos oversized shirt and an Asos belt. I actually bought this belt 2 years ago for £5.00 in the sale and never really liked once I receive it. So it just sat there just sat there and now i have finally put it to use. P.S. there are just some things you don’t throw away you never know when it will make or break your outfit. Not to forget my choker is from @BazaarJewellery a new start up accessories brand! Check them out! 🙂

Message of the week ladies, comfort wins!
