OOTD: The Oversized Trend & the Petite Woman

January 24, 2017 By in Fashion, Outfit Post Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , 43 Comments

I got back from my birthday vacation from Milan yesterday, and I had a good time. I have been sharing snaps from my holiday on Instagram, so you can catch up on my Milan trip on Instagram. I will also been sharing some of my holiday snaps on the blog along with details of my trip soon, so look out for that post.

I am now trying to get back into the swing of things. I travelled with my iPad Pro and Keyboard, hoping I would be able to get some work done but I was unable to. I was having so much fun, I didn’t even have time to publish a blog post. Yes Milan was that good, and I can’t wait to go back. The shops were so amazing. I was like a kid in a candy store!

I took these photos in Essex some weeks ago. It was a cold wet day, but the rain stopped just in time for me to get these shots taken.

I have fallen in love with the oversized trend. I have always liked the trend, but I seem to be picking more and more oversized pieces lately. As a petite lady, I find it odd that they look good on me. I previously wrote about style tips for the petite woman, and it is funny I broke a few rules here. But it is allowed for an oversized look.

This is the trend I am into for now. Who knows what I will be into next month!

However, there is a very thin line between looking stylish and looking frumpy when it comes to rocking oversized pieces. So thin, many cross it everyday without knowing. I think I should write a post on that, what do you think?

OOTD: An Arabian Theme Outfit

Hey peeps. Another day, another outfit post. I promised this year would be a year of outfit posts on Fashion and Style Police, and so far, I am keeping to that promise. Say hello to the second outfit post of the year – An Arabian Theme Outfit.

I got this lovely kaftan in the Gold Souk (market) in Dubai some weeks ago, and I really like it. I wore this outfit to a birthday party the other day, and it felt good to stand out. I was as colourful as the venue; it was a play center in Essex.

I remember braving the cold for a few minutes to get this photos taken. It was freezing cold on that day with the fog and all, so I had to wear sensible shoes, and my gold old sneakers came to the rescue. I am not one to just take photos for the blog. What you see me rocking on here, is how I was dressed for the entire day.

I like my kaftans short. The long designs swallow my petite frame up most of the time, so I like to go for this length. I find them comfy and stylish.

I remember going round the Dubai market with my sister, in search of the right kaftans. Most of the designs out there were longer than I wanted, so it took me some time to find the styles I wanted.

It is all in the details for this beauty right here. I like the attention to the details on the kaftan. It stands out and I can see a lot of work went into it. I love it.

OOTD: A Beaded Black Dress

January 7, 2017 By in Fashion, Outfit Post Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , 45 Comments

Hey peoples, how are we? I am starting to feel slightly human now (been down with a flu), and slowly getting back to work, which is amazing. I hardly fall ill, I can’t remember the last time I have felt this way. So this experience has made me appreciate the little things in life, which is great.

I took these outfit shots on New Year’s Day. The weather was freezing cold but clear so it was a good day for photos.

I am finally back into the outfit mood now which is great. I kind of lost my mojo towards the end of last year for some weird reason. So it feels good to be back in the game. I have a few outfit posts lined up for the next few weeks and I can’t wait to show them off.

I found this outfit perfect for New Year’s Day. The MARYANA Black Beaded Caplet dress is a delicate beauty. It is more than a little black dress. The beaded detail takes the dress to a whole new level. It is currently one of my favourite dresses.

I also found it super easy to style with a pair of boots, tights and blazer. All the pieces and accessories fell into place easily.

I think every woman should have at least 3 pairs of black dresses in her wardrobe for each season. They come in so handy. Little black dresses are super easy to style and they usually look great. It makes sense to have them in different styles and designs to help create different looks.
