Animal Print Dress + Green Sandals

        Animal prints is usually a big trend in the Fall season but not so this season. Somehow, the styling of the prints moved from main clothing pieces like tops and bottoms to accessories like boots and bags and sometimes statement coats. This H&M animal print dress was love at first sight for me because the print is very subtle. I styled it with a pair of green sandals and white pouch bag. I think it is a great idea to have a subtle animal print dress like this in our closets. What do you think? Thanks so much for stopping by.

Summer Style: Lace dress + Straw Bag

 

        My obsession with lace dresses this past Summer was real however these dresses have just been laying low in the closet all these years and not new purchases. Since this past summer was really hot, it was a no brainer to live in these dresses. This piece right here was purchased about three Summers ago from Boohoo.. I styled it with an orange color scarf and a pair of crisscross mules and a straw bag which is always my favorite accessory in the Summer. There is just something about straw bags and accessories that make summer outfits pop. Scarfs have also become my favorite accessory too. Thanks so much for reading.

How to style: Animal Prints for Fall

 

        Animal print is a staple for Fall however wearing head to toe print is not trendy right now. The key to styling animal prints this fall is by choosing one statement piece either in an accessory or in a statement coat. The styles in these collages can inspire you on how to style animal prints this Fall. Happy viewing, happy styling.

Monochrome Look: Brown top + Satin skirt

        This is an old look from the archives, and it is a monochrome look as usual which has really been my favorite way of styling in recent times. The brown top is a panty suit which is very great for work wear; you tuck in and stay tucked in all day without any fuss. Again, the mix of textures is the best way to style a monochrome look so the outfit don't look like a uniform or boring. My floral pumps add extra interest to the whole look and the orange purse, a little punch of color. Thanks so much for reading.

Style / Trend Inspiration: Faux Fur Bag

        My latest trend inspiration for this winter is the faux fur bag or shearling bag which has been popping up in the stores in different styles and price points. Although faux fur bags have been around for a long time, this recent trend might have been spurred on by the Bottega Veneta shearling bag. I love this affordable mini bag by Steve Madden because it is so chic and stylish and did I say affordable? Yes, I said affordable...

How to style colors for Fall

       Outfit collage adapted from: @Styleboardcreator

       There is a sure way to add colors to a Fall outfit and that's by the use of colorful accessories. Sure, we all like to wear rich jewel tone colors like wine, browns, orange and greys in the fall and lots of animal print but just imagine pairing these colors with pops of pink and blue and a little bit of yellow? The result will be an outfit that lifts up the spirit like the one above. And the blue sandals can be swapped out for a pair of brown boots if you so choose. Happy viewing, happy styling.

Polka dots Dress + Square toed Sandals

 

        Polka dots pieces are essentials in a closet in my opinion. The print is a classic and never goes out of style. Every spring and summer, polka dots prints emerge on the fashion scene and what differentiates it from one season to the next, is the way that it is styled. A polka dots dress is the piece you need when you need to add some interest to your wardrobe. The dress that stole my heart this season is this Monique Lhuillier dress here and here. 'So, so gorgeous! 😍

 My dress that I am wearing in this post was purchased from Boohoo a couple of summers ago. I styled it with a pair of black square toed sandals from Ego Shoes, an online shoe store that sells a lot of inspired dupes and variations of luxury shoes. The quality and price point of their shoes is great for fast fashion if you want to get into a trend without spending a lot of money. I completed my look with a white pouch bag and black tassel earrings. Thanks so much for stopping by.

Pink Pantsuit + Pink bow blouse

 

       It's no secret that I love pantsuits and blazers. I just love the versatility in styling and wear. I like that pantsuits can be worn as one outfit, the blazer can be paired with other pieces and the pant can be styled with other pieces in my closet too. So, you always save a lot of money when you buy a two piece suit especially if you love corporate style. 

I styled this hot pink pantsuit to wear to Church weeks ago; paired the suit with a pink bow blouse I purchased from Zara a while back and square toe Sandals. I really love the bold pink color and big bow on this blouse and I look forward to styling it with jeans and a pair of slides next time. My styling is always so simple and I hope you think so too. Thanks so much for reading.

How to style: Vacation Dress + Fendi Tote

        I fell in love with this Fendi tote the very first time I saw it online but the price is quite steep so I can only admire it from afar. It is a bag for someone that is consistently on the move especially if you travel a lot; the perfect vacation bag I would say. I am of the opinion that it is not appropriate to splurge on a designer bag and just let it collect dust in the closet. Anyway, If you have purchased this fabulous tote already and need some styling inspiration, this post is for you. Happy viewing, happy styling.

Blue lace Dress + how to style

       This Summer is one of the hottest so far on record; at least, in the state of Minnesota and one of the ways I have been keeping cool is by wearing lace dresses. I have a stash of lace dresses that I reserved for weddings, baby dedication and baby showers (because in my Nigerian culture, lace is a fabric that is mostly used in the making of special event attire and outfits called "Aso-ebi") which I turned into weekend dresses this summer.
