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.

OOTD: Spring is Here

Outfit Post Image

It is officially spring and I am so looking forward to rocking spring wears this season. I had fun rocking winter fashion, but it felt like it dragged on for so long, and to be honest it still doesn’t quite feel like spring on most days, where I live anyways. So this post is more about me ushering in spring fashion, and hoping the lovely sunshine fills  my window.

This week has been very busy for me,and it is going to get even busier with the short week/Easter holidays coming up. I have quite a few posts I need to get ready before the end of this month, so wish me luck. A lot of writing and scheduling will have to be done, which means multiple daily content for you my dears.

Outfit Post Closet Bolero Lace Jacket

When it comes to spring fashion, I like to layer lightly, just incase it suddenly becomes stupidly cold. For this look, I paired this blue Marchelle Crop Top Jumpsuit I got some months ago with my good old lace bolero and it worked. I felt comfortable all day (travelled down to Essex for a family event), and I looked good, if I may say so myself (wink wink).

Also, for this look I shopped my closet – all pieces were either sent to me or I bought many months or even years ago. The gold lace bolero jacket, I have had for more than 4 years now and it still looks as good as the first day I wore it. That is why buying quality pieces is so very important. When it comes to little things like socks, tights, children’s play clothes and stuff like that, I am happy to buy cheap, but when it comes clothing and accessories, I intend to wear to events and have for years, I like to go for more pricey pieces I like, because they will likely stand the test of time and wash.

OOTD: Wearable Viscose

Outfit Post FSP Image

The weather is getting warmer and warmer over here in Cheshire, and soon it will be time to ditch the tights and start rocking lighter pieces. I can’t wait for the spring to come officially. The weather has been amazing for the last couple of days, and I am keeping my fingers and toes crossed, so it remains this way. I need to start rocking some trendy spring pieces.

The lovely weather allows me to take as many outfit photos as possible, which is great. So you can imagine how excited I was when this tan Zelda Side Tassel Suedette ankle boots by Online Avenue came knocking on a beauty Saturday, while I was getting ready for a photoshoot session. I immediately ditched the original boots I was planning, and went for this beauty instead.

I fell instantly in love with the bright tan colour, and the tassel detailing. The block heel is also the perfect height for me, and very comfortable to walk in. I will be wearing a lot of this beauty so get ready to see a lot of it.

I paired the ankle boots with this Claudia Jersey Tunic, and I can confidently say that this dress is the most comfortable dress I have in my wardrobe at the moment. It feels so good next to the skin, super soft and you can tell it is made from a top-notch material – wearable viscose. I will be looking around for dresses made from wearable viscose henceforth.

The knotted front detail, and three-quarter sleeves give a flattering shape, which is an extra plus. I love figure enchancing pieces.

I am also in love with this pair earrings by ALEXI London. I love anything rose gold so this is right up my street. It is beautiful and delicate in everyway, and I can see myself rocking it a lot.
