A Pop of Orange

Shoes: Kendall and Kylie Madden Girl
Bag : Moschino (Similar Here)

Happy Monday guys, a new week has been bestowed upon us and I am ever so grateful. It certainly has been a while, but here's a pop of orange to brighten up these past gloomy days. I walked into a Ross with hopes of returning an item, but the life of a shopaholic prevents me from walking out without a new purchase :). I walked into a Westwood Ross and perused through the dress section and as you can imagine, this number caught my eye. At first I thought it was a crop top and skirt, but a closer glance revealed it was a dress. Not only did the colour catch my eye, but the price as well, because I love a good bargain. I tried it on and it fit. I just wanted to share this number with you to brighten up your day, especially your week. Have a lovely week guys and stay tuned for more posts. Xxx

Salsa Queen

Hi Lovers, I went a little simple for my look this time. I dusted off the cobwebs on this salsa style shirt I've had in my archives. I then paired it with a pair of old 7 for All Mankind Jeans. I threw on my white Zara bucket bag and some platform wedges for elevation as I am lacking in the height department lol. It's funny how you don't need to go shopping for new items to make an outfit work for you. Take a peek in your closet, you never know what you are going to find. Have a great week ahead. Xxx

Peplums x Mellow Yellow

I have been a lover of peplum for quite some time now. I appreciate the peplum look because it works on all body types and when that happens, a woman feels more confident with what she's wearing and how she looks. My love of all things bright and colorful adds a bit of variety to my clothes and definitely gets heads turning. I decided to go peplum x2 with the skirt I got for a steal at Goodwill and pair them with my newly purchased Kendall and Kylie for Steve Madden shoes. I envisioned this look in my head for a while, so I decided to go for it and loved the outcome. My Zac Posen bag added the perfect touch of red in addition to my bold red lipstick. Remember lovers, colors are there for us to embrace and shine brighter than the sun. Keep it cheap and chic. Xxx

Wedding Attire- Iro & Buba

I recently attended a Nigerian Wedding this past sunday and I decided it was time that my Iro & Buba make its grand debut. I've actually had this for many months now, but I was quite unsure of where to wear it to, so when this wedding came up, I thought hey, why not? I wasn't planning on blogging this outfit because of the poor photo quality :( (my apologies) but I received so many compliments and inquiries about it so I thought I would share. I know some of you may be wondering what is "i-rooo and bu-baa" ? It is simply a blouse and a wrap around skirt, that can be worn many ways, including as a halter dress (maybe if you dare be as bold as I am). It doesn't necessarily have to be worn as a pair, it can be interchanged and mixed with other pieces. Mine was a gift, but fear not you can shop cheap similar items here:

Prints, Prints, Prints

In honor of #throwbackthursday , I decided to dedicate it to prints. Prints are always in style and the key to dressing up prints is to simplify the rest of the outfit. A few months ago I visited the beautfiful Getty Villa and I knew this was the perfect outfit because of the scenery and the beautiful art. You have to own at least one item that is a little print crazy, it adds a little more fun to your wardwrobe. Xxx
