My kind of Charm…

Accessories never get the hype they deserve… Is it because they are too small to notice?, maybe….

The charmed jewelry speaks volumes about an individual. I, love my bracelets chunky….. I love them too much that nothing in the market seems to get me, and so I have resulted into making my own .

Check out below for some ideas on how to have yours customized.

Of Heirloom lovers

Of the statements makers

 

Of the unorthodox thinkers

and of the sentimentalists

The NYFW 2016 runways…

 Fashion Week, when a designer can dream beyond…and as much as most of the clothes that walk down the runway cannot be put down to the streets, it is always amazing to see how far our designer’s minds go.

When in doubt wear red…..Bill Blass

Valentine Cliches 🙂 🙂 🙂

The argument that everyday should be a day to celebrate love doesn’t suffice. I do think that we need a special to put everything else aside and celebrate mankind’s greatest weakness….Love!

…but do you have to have a night out to celebrate love!….and are cliches so bad?

Celebrate Love the best way you know how to. Express your kind of love with your style

Who doesn’t feel like celebrating love all cute!

That comfy kind of love

That kind of love that we feel but do not have to shout about!

That kind of love that we want to shout about!

The Dreamy kind of love

The old classy kind of love

The free kind of love

The daring kind of love

The no one else understands but us… kind of love

The crazy kind of love!

The pure kind of love!

 

 

Whatever you do do not forget your red lip!

Mucho love from yours truly (who is into ‘geeky’ kind of love)

whoop! whoop!

Button up ladies!

How you wear your clothes can make a whole lot of difference. That one shirt or buttoned dress, can earn you more points by just buttoning it to the top.

Peter pan your pants!

Peter pan……#timeless looks (1)

Thee Peter pan collar, classy vintage, modern…..timeless things, should I say. This post only features vintage inspired looks

White tulle! Princess y moments

 

The Red tulle skirt

 Cutest skirt ever.

 

The Free size LBD…… You need it!

I have to say the biggest fashion cliche ever is the LBD, yet it is a  very convenient ‘accessory’.  It doesn’t matter the design or what you want to pair it with the fact remains that every girl needs it. Then comes the free size LBD…..

 

 

 

 

Perquisites of being black!

One thing we can’t argue about is the African hair. There are a million things we can subject our hair to without loosing it or looking weird.

That full, kinky, strong hair is nothing but a blessing

What other type of hair can accommodate such creativity?

You have to be black to pull some styles!

 

If you have Caucasian hair please leave braiding and locks for your darker counterparts

Did I say blacks can get away with anything when it comes to hair. Yeah we can even pull white people hair…Thank you hair factory!

 

   Short, Colored… the list is endless

 

Let’s give nature credit where it’s due

That perfect blazer :-)

 What is your definition of a perfect blazer… Mine is a slim fit blazer because it goes with just about everything and does not look borrowed…

Going back to the basics!

Black and his longtime crush white….true definition of subtle.

 

The boy in you!

 Sometimes you need to embrace and unleash the ‘androgyny‘ in you. The style is…wait for it ………legendary.

 

sophisticaTED, slit-tED and totally maxi-FIED!!!

 I have grown to love this look, maybe it comes with age…dayyymm, hands up!

This is ess…

Joy kendi

Scarves galore!

 I am a sucker for scarves, that is for sure. I am most naked when I am not in a scarf and so, I guess, is Jessica Alba. Girl knows how to work her stuff ~ Steal her versatile style

Those pants though!!!

Ankle length pants….greatest invention ever, yeah! I said it. I don’t think anything else can blend better with  everything on so many levels.

(Ps. This post doesn’t include pants with a turn up)

 

Have a splendid weekend loves!

Hounds tooth 2′

Here co meth the second post on the finest print. I can never get enough of this print… Check out how you can style your hounds-tooth print skirt

The Palazzo pants!

 There is one rule I however have when it comes to these wide legged pants…tuck in the top or wear a fitting top. It makes it less tacky and so chic but one thing is for sure, these  pants are comfortable and every girl should own at the least….two pairs

A simple vest will work any day.

Pair it with a top of the same color for that jumpsuit like look

See how the stripes work with just about anything…

A fitting leather jacket will give it that kicky look

Keep it young and fresh with a printed vest or small tee

Give it that formal nudge with a buttoned shirt

Lace…..need I say more

Something Striped 1′

Black and White Striped outfits have done their time…or so I hear, but I refuse to decompose mine, plus I don’t like following trends, I love being the odd one out …

You have a striped top… you can still make it work, see how to

Everyday kinda look – Street style simple

Some serious color add

Appreciating Boy Girl Moments with a pop of color

Glam it enough for an event….If you pair it with a neutral color do not forget to add something that pops

See how different colors blend so elegantly

Nudes….I tell you stripes can work with pretty much anything, just be sure to go all the way……………

Chic in Plaid’

We are used to putting on our plaid shirts when we want to dress down and end up in what I like to call the plaid cliche. I mean who hasn’t worn or severally seen someone who pairs up their unbuttoned plaid shirt with denim…. See how you can take your plaid shirt to the next level
