Ankara Collection: Blue Horses

Hey Loves! I am completely obsessed with this dress! The colours and the fitting are everything. I popped in to visit my tailor who was swamped with a mountain of December orders and I spotted this mustard-orange-yellow piece on his material rack. It was the very last 1.5 meters and I just knew I had……

Ankara Collection: Two Piece Play Set

Hello loves! It’s official, my love for Ankara print and tailor made clothes (Read: Tailored Paisley) has gone next level. I’m not sure how far this will go but there’s nothing quite like clothes meant to fit your body seeing that I’m a tall long limb-ed girl. … So I got this set made, ironically each……

Ankara Collection: A Dash of Orange

 Hi there! I have strangely developed a keen liking to not only the colour orange but off-shoulder gypsey tops! My mom gave me a tiny scrap piece of material left over from a dress she made for someone and this popping dash of orange on blue was just too pretty for me to stash away.……

Ankara Collection: Pink Print Friday

Hold up! Am I the only one who is broke? Like dirt broke? I keep asking myself what on earth do I spend all my money on?!!! And how is it that I’m always pennyless the week before payday. Jeez! This hurts! *sigh* Adulting… This is an outfit post I meant to share a while……

“Must you wear that thing?” – The headwrap struggles

“Must you wear that thing?” Yep! That is something I have heard my mom exclaim a number of times in our house as either of my sisters or I leave the house for work. She always has that ‘Oh no! Nobody is going to take her seriously,  she’s going to get a warning at work’……

Ankara Collection: Print Perfection

Three blog posts in one day!  Yass I’m on a roll today 😊 This is my ‘I don’t feel like getting dolled up today so the bold print can take all the attention’ outfit. Sometimes the print and colour combination can make or break an outfit. If there is one combo I don’t like is……

Ankara Collection: Kaftan Kasual

Hello loves! I’m in a good mood today, hope it stays a while =) So! My dear sister who always buys me the cutest stuff bought me this shift dress. I can’t lie, the dress was tight around the hips but I insisted on it anyway with that crazy “I’ll lose weight in a few……

I cut up my graduation dress!

Hey there! Finding the perfect graduation outfit can be a mission because you want to look exactly how you envisioned yourself walking across that stage to receive that degree you slaved so hard for. For my graduation I wanted something completely different from the typical cocktail/smart formal dresses and I knew I definitely wasn’t going……

Because #blackgirlmagic

Heeeey! I highly  doubt I'd actually wear this as an outfit on a regular day, it was just for creativity's sake.  I'm not even sure how I wound up with this look,  my mind is always and forever on a trip but hey I love it.  I'd probably wear it to a music festival or…

That. Wool. Skirt. DAMN!

Hey there! I had no idea this wool skirt was going to be as warm as it is,  like no really- its very warm! Still looking for similar skirts.  I really don't like having to wear jeans or pants for weeks on end when winter hits its peak,  with layers of leggings and stockings (pantihose/tights) …
