Just Like Mother :)

Hello loves!

I trust you all have been well.

Today’s outfit was inspired by my mother’s dressing. She loves to wear cropped pants. It was a very common trend in the 90s. You see people; my mother has always been the source of my fashion inspiration for the longest time! When I was young I always wanted to wear what she wore, from the high waist skirts, the ‘pams’ as they were commonly called.

I bought this pants sometime back, I thought they were rather would be more fitting but it is one of those pants that immediately you try on, you just fall in love. I think they are really cool. I do some sort of internship (but only better hehe) at a local media house and I wanted to pull of the fashionably chic look.

I have been into the vintage look for a while now. It reminds me so much of my mother, who btw is THE classiest lady I have met(at this rate I may go on and on about my mother, too much love I tell you!)

Moving on swiftly…here is the full look…

A closer look at the pants…

I added the belt to kill the plainness of the outfit

The pretty little shoes(I walk a lot! Running from one corner of town to the other and flats are uber essential)

The top..it has the lace like detail…

Oohh my FAVORITE…the purse..it has this magical ability to liven up an outfit

AND finally...

Have a marvelous week!

I wanted to take a photo with the Mr. tortoise but he was camera shy L

Admiring the nature…

DENIM X DENIM

Hello lovies!!

I trust you all have been well, I finished my exams at long last!

Today I was up and about town, with a friend, initially we were to go to the giraffe centre  but we got derailed elsewhere.

We ended up going to an Ethiopian restaurant in the neighbourhood

I settled for this denim on denim as we were to go up and down and comfort is key!!

The scarf was for extra warmth, I am suffering a cold L

the great thinker hehe

a closer look at the shoes…

Went minimal on jewelery, just felt like keeping it light. This another one of my simple chilled looks

Have a fabulous week!!

TURBAN!

The turban has been around for quite some time now,  never really pulled it off before, I love my haircut too much! Am not a big fan of hats either well unless I am rocking braids…There was unexpected rain sometime last week, one of those days,all sunny in the A.M and you’re all dressed up in a sundress then in the evening, the rain just decides to pour!!that one day when you decide to leave your umbrella home!! Well my good people, I was rained on to the bone!!my hair looked like something else!!

So to maintain my oh-so-amazing hair, I had to go to the salon and have my barber restore my hair’s dignity!! Thou shalt not walk out of the house with bad hair!!

Hence the turban to cover up!fabulousity is key at all times!

I am absolutely in love the color mix on It…

Fooling around…

The sunglasses + turban + earrings, adding a vintage feel to the look

And finally the whole look…

Have a great week!

SIMPLE DAYS...

 I started my exams yesterday, I’ve been hella busy with books(ok am lying,I’ve just had one exam and it feels like I did 50 of them!) and running errands here and there, a girl gotta make money!! hehe

Today was one of those days, not too exciting, I would have very much rather stayed in bed, I‘m still feeling drained from yesterday’s exam.

I was feeling denim today, and with the denim on denim still trending, I decided to match the two and voila!

I tend to pair this denim shirt with darker denims, this was a first. I added the chain to add an oomf to the outfit... 

 Wore the pink to brighten the outfit a bit, to break the uniform feel of the outfit…didn’t want to look like a farmer (you get my drift)

These pants are actually my chill-in-the-house-pants, I rarely wear them out, I feel that they are those pants that need a certain top or a certain neck piece, I never quite feel it…(don’t  get me wrong, I  still LOVE them!)

and this is just one of my simple looks.

 great week ahead!
