The days that fashion overwhelms me and I find myself trying stuff that are out of my comfort zone....but then it would never be fashion wouldn't it?. It was quite a dull cold day so I decided to do a lil' bit of layering with little gothic accents I L.O.V.E houndstooth print and been on a hunt for a skirt or short for a while and when I got it, I could not wait to style it. I went all retro with the black sweater and tucked it in since its super big. I complemented the look with a plum rich tone and added gold accessories. You never go wrong with red with black and white prints....so I added a crimson belt then finished if off with black leggings. This shoes are so vavavum....I do not know what to call them but they are a cross breed of platforms with maryjanes. But I sure loved the polka dots.....Oh and they are super comfortable....they are so weird I could't help loving 'em and I thought they really complemented the hounds tooth print. I kept the rest of my accessories minimal... CLOSET:

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 CLOSET:

Cheers, ChezMaureen Of late i have been spotting these button up shirts and aint getting obcessed with them. But aren't they just off the hook Well it not everyday you catch me in flatties but a gal gots to give them mean heels a break sometimes. I totally like these pointed brown patent ones especially when am out and about or running errands and want to look chic. By now u must know how i love animal prints, this one was sheer and quite subtle than most i usually do. I paired it with these high waisted woolen shorts and added this butterfly cobalt blue stretch belt. I dressed up the shirt with this multi colored bib necklace to add a pop of color to the outfit and finally carried my croc skin leather bag. Oh and my geeks for the definition of the geeky look i was goin for. The flatties have a distressed bronze tip
This weekend was all about family and friends. On sunday I did a picnic with the gals and this is a polyvore of what I wore. I did a sheer peach blouse and a nautical striped tank inside, paired it up with high waisted woolen shorts and bandage cream wedge sandals I then did a lesso head scarf to add some color to the oufit and a pinch of green with the belt. The earrings are kitenge inspired from bridgets collection and i totally love them. It was getting dark and i did not take really good pics so this time i will just add only limited ones for you to just get the concept
