ELLE UK August 2016

It is the season of group models on magazine covers and I am loving it so much. On ELLE UK August 2016 issue, we have 4 beautiful models gracing the cover; Ysaunny Brito, Bhumika Arora, Sofie Hemmet, and Maggi Jablonski, and they are all rocking Prada pieces. This cover was shot by photographer Kai Z Feng for ELLE.

I like the fact that these ladies are models on the rise and not supermodels. I like to see new, fresh faces on the cover of a magazine every now and again. I also like the fact this cover is the reader’s choice cover. This is actually ELLE’s first ever group cover shot featuring new models. The whole idea behind the cover is to celebrate fashion’s brave new spirit, and the power in being YOU. I like it.

I really like this cover. I like the fact that various races are featured on it. The beautiful faces are strong and fierce and it looks excellently. This here right is one of my favourite ELLE UK covers till date.F

I am interested in the features on the cover as well especially ‘GET NAKED – The right nude lipstick for you’. That sounds like an article I need to read after my last encounter with a nude lipstick. I am still in the pursuit of a nude lipstick that will look good on me. The ‘GET HIGH – The heel is back’ also sounds like an interesting fashion article.

I am hoping to grab a copy of this issue before it goes off the newsstands. I am quite behind on my reading this month. I am currently reading Anne Frank’s Diary – The Diary of a Young Girl, but once I am done with that, I will play catch up on the others.

What are your thoughts on this August cover? Do you like it? Have you read the issue?

Drop me a comment, lets chat.

OOTD: Styling Shades of Blue

Shades of Blue Image

Blue is one of my favourite colours ever. There is something so cool about the colour blue. I can’t quite explain my love for the colour but I am so in love with it. There is something clean and clear about the colour blue. Many pieces and accessories in my wardrobe are blue in colour and I like it that way but I have to start to reduce the amount of blue items I do have for the sake of variety and options.. In these photos, I also have a few shades of blue in the background. Can you spot them? Lol..

I find blue so easy to style, and that is 1 reason why I wear a lot of it. Here are 5 ways you could style your blue pieces and accessories this summer:

 

Pair with White

You can pair your blue piece with white like I did in this outfit post. A blue top paired with a white skirt or pants always look good.

 

Add Pair

Or you can team up your blue piece with black for a better contrast. Denim paired with black always looks spot on.

 

Wear Stripes

Summer fashion is all about stripes, and the colour blue always looks amazing when paired with stripes. So go for it! You can draw inspiration from my outfit here.

Matchy Matchy

You can always go matchy matchy with blue. Denim on denim always looks fabulous. Just add some black pumps and you are good to go.

 

Prints

Blue always looks good paired with prints. Blue prints on a white base looks effortlessly chic.

The Style Icon: Natalie Portman

Natalie Portman Image

The beautiful, talented and stylish Natalie Portman has been on my style radar for quite a bit now, and why won’t she be? That is what happens when a woman is beauty, brains and talent all rolled up in 1. Natalie Portman is the definition of a triple threat…

I have admired Natalie for a very long time now and I think she is indeed a style icon. I love how she styles her pieces and accessories. This stylish starlet always looks amazing everytime she is photographed. She is the definition of true style in my eyes. Style goals right there….

I still remember Natalie back then with her cute pixie haircut. She was and still is so cute. I kind of miss her pixie hair.

Natalie Portman is a style icon because she is not one to follow the crowd or trends. She sticks to her own personal style which is classic, elegant and confident. I love the fact that she stands out from the pack. Her personal stylists are definitely working overtime on her behalf.  She is always looking great. It is hard to believe this woman is closer to 40 than 30. She could easily pass for a twenty something year old. I like the fact that she does not seem to age or change. Natalie is truly an ageless beauty.

Natalie Portman Style

I will like to be like how when I grow up. I adore Natalie’s style. I look forward to seeing what she has on the red carpet, and so far I am yet to be dissappointed. I wish I could be a fly on the wall when she is meeting her stylists, I bet I could learn a thing or 2.

What do you think of Natalie Portman’s style? Are you a fan? Lets talk…

Thanks for reading and have a lovely day.
