I have been shopping the sales online, and it has been great. There are quite a few bargains up for grabs now so get in there now if you are looking to add some pieces to your collection. Some stores that currently have the spring sale going on are Debenhams, Illamasaqua, and Matalan. These stores have also added the new spring/summer collection to the stores and online, so it is worth popping in or browsing online, to see what is on trend at the moment, or you could just wait for me to wear it on here, lol.

However, I should add that knowing what styles and designs are in vogue does not mean you should go all out and shop all new collections. You can add few pieces and accessories to your existing wardrobe, to update it and give you new pieces to be excited about, and you should be able to style those few new buys with your current spring/summer pieces. The secret of having a stylish wardrobe is to avoid impulse buying. Always shop with your current wardrobe in mind, just so you buy pieces and accessories that would complement what you do have already. Shopping until you drop every season is not healthy or wise, that is why I always go for quality over quantity. I need my clothes and accessories to last longer than a season, that is why I am very selective of where I shop, you won’t catch shopping in many stores, names withheld to protect the innocent.

So over to what I have on, I am wearing a Navy Blue Ditsy Tea Dress. This dress is one of the new pieces I got in the spring sale some days ago and I love it. This dress is the TRUTH. I adore the colour, the floral print, the length, the way it feels, everything about this dress I love. I will be wearing this stylish dress a lot. It is so easy to dress up and down, a great choice.

OOTD: Spring/Summer Outfit

Looking Summery Image

The weather this weekend at my end went from one extreme to the other. It was nice and sunny on Saturday, and I made the most of it. I went for a swim, had outfits photos snapped, went for long walks and had a few errands sorted. Then came Sunday, and it was like we were back in winter again. It was very cold and wet, rained pretty much all day, and then we even hailstorm in the evening. It was a proper mental weather, you won’t believe the days were just next to each other, with the very different weather.

Speaking of weather, and how we are in meant to be in spring, getting ready for summer, but it still feels like winter on some days, we can start rocking our spring/summer pieces and accessories now. As long as you layer right on the chilly days, you would be fine. If not half the year may go by with you still rocking your autumn/winter pieces.

Spring Look

The good way to start slowly introducing your spring/summer wardrobe is to start with your shoes. It may not be warm enough for summer dresses and skirts, but you can get away with rocking sandals and summer shoes now, as long as you style them properly. There are so many amazing summer shoe collections in stores now, Kurt Geiger has so many stylish additions available this season, and this shoe candy I am rocking is one of them, so keep an eye on their new shoe collection section.

Spring Outfit

I adore the slightly curved small heel, I found it super comfortable. The ankle straps and the glossy khaki upper with the blue detail at the back, finishes it off beautifully. It is a shoe for both day and night, perfect choice!

Charm Bracelets Image

This Marilyn Heart Charm Bracelet by Corbico Jewellery London is the cutest piece ever! The three gold colour bracelets with heart dangle charms is from the Dainty Collection, and it comes in three colours; rose gold, gold and rhodium, and looks amazing. They can be take you from day to night effortlessly. I will be wearing these gorgeous pieces for as long as possible.

OOTD: Back to the Roots

African Skater Skirt Image

Say hello to my first outfit post in the month of April, and it is an ode to my African roots. This skater African print skirt was a gift from my mum. I wore it for the first time some days ago, and I got quite a lot of good compliments from so many people. I guess it caught so many eyes because it is a very colourful, different skirt, just what you need to see on a dull, gloomy day.

Outfit of the Day Image

Growing up, I wore quite a lot of pieces like this skirt. In fact, half of my wardrobe would consist of african printed skirts, trousers and dresses, and I loved it. You won’t see this skirt or anything like it on the high street, which makes it even more precious.

Every now and again, I will like to mix my African pieces with my regular pieces, and create a very different look, so keep reading Fashion and Style Police, a lot of fashion and style inspiration coming your way.

I found it incredibly easy to style this custom-made skirt. I love seeing lace paired with African prints, maybe because I have seen a lot of lace African outfits over the years. I think they complement each other perfectly so I went for the look, and I think it turned out great.
