Happy new week fashionettes, hope you had a fabulous weekend. It was all about appreciating the women and Happy belated International Women's day to all the ladies out there.

You guys, am obsessed with skirts.....like I can't stop wearing them. If you have seen all my previous posts from this year, its skirts and dresses. One thing I love about them though is that they are super versatile, there are 100 ways of wearing them. Another is that if worn well, they are uber stylish and they bring out the feminity in you.

I got this coral printed one sometime back, i have no idea how long I have had it, but I just happen to fish it out of my closet and boy was I sorry I had not thought of it before. It was fun and flirty, the mini length was just perfect for the hot sun outside and how gorge is the print on it. I decided to do a color block, its been a while since I did a flurry of colors. Since the skirt was a high waist, I went for a burgundy red Victoria secret top

In the spirit of color blocking, I went for mint green capped toes, neon green earrings and an emerald green neck piece. I added the black geeks for an edge to the outfit

                                          MY ACCESSORIES

Am not much of an arm candy person, but this time round, i decided to pile it on. I am in love with the British flag guitar ring, currently my fave accessory.

Happy new week my good people, My name is Maureen and I am obsessed with stripes....I seriously cannot keep my hands off. I have blogged about these pants before here and this time round I decided to combine it with neon accents.

A simple luminous green blouse seemed to be my perfect choice...then I added little pops of neon pink with the earrings and the heart shaped purse

Finished it off with these cobalt blue platforms with the matching bib necklace and my lovely animal print geeks and a red bold lip.

What do you think of my outfit....drop me a line below!

Happy Friday my good people......mmmh the smell of the weekend just drifting and I could not be happier....you know what am talking about! Lets talk fashion....right?
This is an outfit I wore last friday on my way to run a few errands....I have wrote about this maxi before in my blog archives,. so this time I decided to add a touch of boho and a lil' glam to it and brought in the cropped top with the pop of color and the accessories. I love how such a tops can change an outfit in a snap...I wore mine off shoulder for that peekaboo effect on the maxi.

       I had a thought to cinch it up at the waist but decided against it at the last minute.

I held my hair up in a high pony to show off this gorge emerald green drop earrings and added this cobalt blue bib necklace.

      Finished it off with a bold red lip, black booties and this magenta satchel bag!

Chez Maureen!

I don't do preppy looks often but this time I decided to go all out and incorporate a bow tie and colored geeks.

This was my Saturday wear for a friend's event and I totally love the pin  striped white and blue blazer. The weather was a ishy with the sun getting hot and dull at the same time so it was a struggle to find the perfect lighting for the pictures

I did a lil' bit color blocking with the crazy green button up shirt, green shorts and hot pink pointy pumps

                                      I balanced the craziness with a black patent purse

If there is a trend that is inescapable, its denim! Thats where I bring in the denim vest, this trendy piece is versatile, flattering, and adds edge to even the girliest pieces in our wardrobes. Thats why I decided to pair it up with a turquoise green pleated skirt and color blocked it with a hot pink tank

I went for  this faded, sun-kissed light blue that looks great with just about every other color, especially since my outfit is color blocked to give it a color clash rather than a match. I love the back at the back....the tiny bows are just soooo cute.
 

                                                I adore pleats....they so flirty and fun

                               I accessorised the vest with a silver neck piece and yellow loops

                                 Finished it off with these sexy leopard print booties

Toodles,

I find styling jumpsuits to be really tricky, you have to consider your shape and figure, otherwise you find your self in some fashion police cap. This was my outfit for my brother's graduation,I got this butter yellow one in my thrifting escapades....its a lil' baggy which i prefer because it doesn't crinkle around the hip and thigh area.

I particularly loved the collars at the front and back. The back is has a low neck while the front is shorter and peter pan. I threw in the jungle green vest to bring some seriousness to the outfit, but threw it off when it got extra warm

I did the little pops of color by adding a neon pink skinny belt, color blocked earrings and the cobalt blue platforms and matching tweed purse borrowed from my sisters closet.

            I totally love the back it soo party at the back while business at the front.

             I added a tangerine scarf with black polka dots to serve as my hair band.

How are you good people, am hoping you had an awesome weekend. Mine was quite a mixture of sorts but yesterday crowned my weekend up. I met my gals and its never anything short of amaze balls when we get to catch up and all esp since one of us just jetted back into the country from abroad.

I decided to do a lil bit of everything, color,demin, the sweater, nautical stripes.....

I love this tangerine capris.....and I paired em with this turqoise knit sweater that is quite my fave knit oflate

I had a nautical hi-low stripped shirt inside and it was quite chillly in the evening so the sweater came in handy and I totally forgot to take it off as i was taking the pics. I then added a neon pink scarf to add some color and ummmph to it.

And finally my geeks and a janelle monae inspired hairstyle, then my nude and white sling backs. And oh....not forgetting the teal purse.

My sweater is baggy and it looked funny when i tucked it in, but i did not want to belt it up so i added a brooch at the back.

Hallo hallo y'all.... well today is my birthday and can't believe how the year has ran out so fast. Wow and a year older, and as am aging i notice my style is too getting more refined and am doing lots of growing sexy outfits. If only i had a blog years ago, you'd see why. But, am liking it as i still try to incorporate my evolving style into it.

I came across this denim skirt in my thrifting escapades and was so drawn to it. It was once size bigger and i got my tailor to resize it to my specifications. I wanted high waist and fitting but not tight and this is the end result.

I loved the button detail and wrap effect of the skirt paired it up with white ruffled blouse and my all time favorite cobalt blue platforms.

I added the multi- colored oversized purse and colored blocked earrings to add some oomph and color to the outfit

Oh my its been rainy chaos offlate and the cold is not making the blues better. Well i decided to show you how to look stylish in this cold weather. Starting up is DRESSING THE SWEATER. You can add a sweater to your ensemble and loook really chic in it. Take a look how i did it:

I paired up this navy blue high low sweater with this DIY turqoise green high waist trouser skirt. Initially it was a vintage dress but i decided to cut of the top and make it a skirt and voila! i came up with this skirt.

I had a hot pink vest inside since it was really off shoulder and i needed a popping color to add some ummph to it.

A slit always gives some sexy vibe to any skirt and i loved the one on this skirt, especially because i could walk in this pencil one.

Remember to always add some hot heels when u are wearing such skirts because you can end up looking frumpy in flats especially for the pint sized gals like yours truly here.

            Remember to over accessorise your sweater. Add as much bling as you can

And finally i got this vintage Chloe bag. I so love the purple with the gold details then this gold peep toe platforms.

Hello my good people.....yey its Furahi day....yea been wishing for this weekend, so much happening and lots to choose from. Been off a lil bit but now am back with this tangerine ensemble.....2012 has been all about that pop of color and i could not resist this bold hue for a sunny day. It is a spring color that still translates to the summer.

This shirt dress is a Bombes international 2012 spring collection and i liked the zip details on it and the boat neck...well which i translated to an off shoulder for a flirty look

I added an electric lemon scarf that i used to cinch the dress and add more color on it,then made a pussy bow at the back

My accessories were also bold....the pointed deep sky blue pumps and the statement bib necklace.

Finished it off with this multicolored weaved purse and a floral ring
