Hello fashionettes,  I hope you are having a lovely week. A wrap dress or skirt is one of those closet staples every gal should own. This classic piece was created by Diane Von Furstenberg in the 60's and ever since its been a revolution in the fashion industry.  its ideal for every shape and size and it flaunts what your momma gave ya.

I found this skirt in my shopping escapades and loved it from the word go. It drapes so well and I love the rouching at the front. The color and paisley print was a plus, and the fact that it was midi, yea am totally obscessed.

I paired it with a lace cropped top, played peekaboo with the midriff and showed some leg at the front since the outfit is all covered up. I finished it off with ankle strap sandals to add some glamour and sexiness to the outfit, then carried this bronze clutch I was gifted by my mum.

I kept the accessories minimal and simple because the skirt was loud enough

This was a simple outfit for one of those hot days, we have bee experiencing *before the rain started in the evening and i freezed to bits* I forgot my jacket and well, i paid for it with the case of the chillys. Anywho, I went for a high- low black sheer vest and denim jeans.
              The accessories were color popping, to add an ooomph to the dull outfit and make it more glam without doing too much!
Am in love with this purple pinkish lipstick, I added the neon pink earrings to complement it
The oversize floral purse...is a carry it all though....the arms tire very fast, its overly fit for most occasions even night events!
                    Finally, the bronze ruffled peeptoe booties,I thought the peep toe would show some skin especially since i was basically covered up.

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
 
Sup'  dolls, i believe you are having a superb week. Yesterday i went for the K.U culture week opening and this is what i wore
I am still a huge fan of nautical stripes as they tend to elongate my torso when worn as a shirt or blouse, so i got two of these sometime last week. I went for the button up shirt look  and tucked into the chinos
What i loved the most about this shirt is the lace detail at the back...i find it so demure
                    I rolled up the chinos and wore this woven yellow peep toes from Belluci
I accessorised the shirt with a golden statement bib necklace, then added the red skinny belt for  the final touch of the chinos. Then added the floral print inspired purse and i was ready for a sunny summer day out.
 
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
 
This outfit combines four of my favorite trends of 2012; pleats, the maxi skirt, prints and color blocking. I decided to do a spring combination of colors.....the cobalt blue skirt with a mint green blouse. I tied the blouse to elongate the midriff and steer away from the outfit looking too officy
What i love most about maxi skirts is that they are versatile and can be dressed up for a night out or down for a low key look. I went for the casual look in this post
                        I added a pop of  neon pink with the belt and head scarf for some ooomph
I carried a printed oversized purse with an array of lovely colors to navigate from the spring look i had on.
My accessories were very minimal, just a burgundy red bracelet and a bronze ring. Not forgetting the platforms.....i got this babies just the other day and and am in love with the turqoise green suede blended with the florals heel
                  Finished it off with off-white earrings and a bold scarlet red lip
