Outfit Post – Shine Bright Like A Diamond

Hey fashion lovers! How are you? I am good. It has been a very busy time for me. The month of June is pretty much over. It has gone by so fast. I can’t believe it is July next week. The weather has also been great and we have been making the most of the sunshine as you can see in this outfit post. The amazing sunshine is making me shine bright like a diamond that I am in these photos.

I am rocking my natural hair for the first time in an outfit post and I am so proud of  how far I have come.My natural hair journey started abut 2 years ago. It has been tough, and sometimes, I am tempted to straightened the hair with some chemicals. But then I remember why I started growing my hair natural, and that stops me.

My hair is still at the stage of me not really knowing how to style it. Which is why it is usually in cornrows. But for the next weeks, I am going to be experimenting with various natural hair styles and treatments to see what works best for my hair.

I have recently started using some new hair care products and techniques which I will be sharing on Fashion and Style Police in the next few weeks. It would be exciting to see how these treatments transform my natural hair.

In this outfit post, I am wearing existing pieces from my wardrobe. Even though I love fashion and I enjoy writing about it and showing various styles, I don’t shop very often. But when I do shop, I like to go for quality pieces that would last longer and stand the test of time.

Aquarius Individual Fashion Sense

Some call us weird, others call us wonderful. Many people we are inventive and quirky, and we are!

I am not so into Zodiac signs anymore, unlike when I was a lot younger. But I do know quite a lot about Zodiac signs and their meanings, especially mine which is Aquarius. I tick most of the Aquarius boxes. I am the humanitarian and philanthropist of the zodiac. We Aquarius do not shy away from lending a helping hand when needed. We are passionate, unconventional, independent and we have the need to express our ingenuity, which is why I blog I guess. Fashion and Style Police is a creative outlet for me, and it has changed my life for the better. It is definitely one of the best things that ever happened to me.

Being an Aquarius also explains a lot of things about my life, my personality and what makes me tick. It also explains my fashion sense. I have been doing some reading of fashion in general, and why we like certain styles. Why specific designs and pieces appeal to some and not others. And I have come to realise that our zodiac signs could play a role in our fashion sense.

 

So what is the Aquarius Individual Fashion Sense all about?

Unconventional and Original

The Aquarius personal style is usually unconventional and very original. We are usually free-spirited when it comes to fashion, which is why we tend to wear pieces in different ways. Having an original fashion sense is amazing, as there is never a dull fashion moment for a fashionista Aquarius chic. The possibilities are endless in the styling department.

Predict Trends

The Aquarius woman has the forward thinking gift, which is amazing when put to fashion and style use. Aquarians can predict fashion trends well in advance and can play around with various styles in the pursuit of the perfect look.

The talented fashion designer Mary Quant predicted trends well in advance. She invented the mini-skirt, creating a uniform for the 1960s women’s lib movement. But she forever gives credit to her clients.

“It was the girls on the King’s Road who invented the mini. I was making easy, youthful, simple clothes, in which you could move, in which you could run and jump, and we would make them the length the customer wanted. I wore them very short and the customers would say, ‘Shorter, shorter.’”

5 Steps to Styling Shorts this Summer

Shorts are a cute and comfortable addition to the outfits to wear during the summer. They are casual and perfect for the warm weather. However, styling shorts is tricky. Here are 5 steps that can guide you on how you can style your shorts the right way.

  1. Select the right kind of shorts

The most popular kind of shorts people wear during the summer is denim shorts. They are cute and they look great with almost any coloured top. However, those are not the only type of shorts out there.

Shorts can come in different colours, patterns and lengths. In fact, there are shorts for almost every occasion. What you need to take note of the most is whether your shorts are comfortable.

 

  1. Choose a suitable top

When it comes to choosing the right top to complement your shorts, there are so many options out there.

You can style your shorts with a t-shirt, like your slogan tees. You can fly your t-shirt over your shorts or tuck them in to accentuate your waist. This is particularly suitable if you have an hourglass figure.

Crop tops are another option you can go for when styling your shorts. However, crop tops are not for everyone. You need to make sure that you’re in shape before you wear them.

An unbuttoned white or baby blue shirt also looks amazing with shorts. It adds a lot of definition to your outfit. A long-sleeved shirt helps to balance your outfit out.

 

  1. Play around with layering

Your outfit doesn’t only look great when you throw a cute top over your shorts. There’s so much you can get from your outfit when you play around with the right kind of layers.

You may think that just because the weather is hot you can’t add a piece of clothing over your top. The layers can help to add some contrast to your outfit and also give your ensemble some balance. Since your shorts are obviously short, you can layer it with something longer to balance it out.

Layer your top with a long light jacket, blazer, kimono or even replace your top with a long-sleeved shirt. The length of the sleeves will balance out the shortness of your shorts.

 

  1. Define your shorts with the right shoes

What kind of shoes go with a pair of shorts? For a casual look, ankle strap sandals would make a great fit especially if you’re wearing denim shorts and they are perfect for the summer. Another casual option is a pair of sneakers for your shorts. To add a little class you can put on your favourite high-heeled shoes.

 

  1. Finish it off with alluring accessories

An outfit is not complete without the right kind of accessories. First up is a belt. Most people don’t use a belt for their shorts. It really isn’t compulsory that you should wear a belt, but it could work as a good addition. Another set of accessories to style your shorts is a long necklace over your top to put emphasis on your shorts and a nice clutch purse.
