On some days, we wear slippers. Most days for me actually. This a recent development (blame it on Unilag's casual style) but I think it suits my style well- slippers make every outfit look... slightly undone. Right?

Outfit Details:

So I decided to give this another go. I would love suggestions on how to go about this. Really, any suggestion is welcome.
Hat: Macy's (old)

Dress: From an individual seller

Shirt: Hatico

Slippers: Random store at Yaba

Necklace: A market in Benin Republic

Remember the hat? I did in fact use it to cover up a "bad hair day" ;)

So I sort of changed the look of the blog. You like? Would you wear this outfit? How would you put your spin on it? How have you worn your vintage shirt? Leave a link, let me know in the comments, I'd love to hear from you.

I wear maxi dresses and skirts a lot but I noticed I only had one outfit post of me wearing a maxi skirt so I'm going to be incorporating more. How comfy are maxi dresses though? Although, I would pick a dress over any clothing article any time, a maxi dress is a must in my opinion. You just throw it on and voila! You're set.

It's that time again- back to school shopping (yaaaaaay!!!!) I know this is coming real late, my apologies. I don't believe in totally changing your wardrobe every time a school starts, just taking a few pieces to spice up your basics. Or to stock on the basics if you don't have them already. Here are my picks...

Baseball jackets literally borrowed from the boys

1, 2

 I like the way masculine/masculine inspired clothing looks on females. I think it accentuates our femininity. Plus, they look really funky. Throw one of these on a dress and voila!

 

Brogues

1, 2, 3, 4

  Awesome shoes brogues definitely are. They are complement any outfit from a girly dress to slouchy pants. Gotta love them.

Ballet flats

1, 2, 3

Not just typical ballet flats, the more interesting ones that can dress up any look. On those days one rolls outta bed for classes, one needs a funky ballet flat handy to just throw a dress on. Same basics, different look.

Maxi dresses

 

 

1, 2, 3, 4

Because of it's versatility, style and comfort, a maxi dress is a must-have. For those days you don't feel solid, go print! (lame pun, I know)

 

 

Backpacks

1, 2, 3

 

They're funky. Check. Comfortable. Check. Practical. Check. What are you waiting for?

clutch bags

 

 

Perfect for a night out. So...why not??

 

Asymmetrical skirts

 

 

1, 2, 3

Because they add structure...

 

 

Stripes

 

 

midi-dress, mini-dress, skirt, tunic, blazer, shirt

Stripes = classic. They go with everything in your wardrobe. Everything, including prints! I am actually stripe crazy at the moment. Bonus points if you combine two different stripe separates!

 

 

Awesome jewellery

 

They totally complete an outfit and portray whatever you want to portray. plus on lazy days, they literally dress you up. Score!!

So that's it guys.
