Hello there! OMG! This skirt is a dream! It’s comfortable and fits just right. I hate having to continuously tug on a skirt that rolls up as I walk. Also it has really good lining which gives it structure. I particularly love the front slit! I think I actually prefer a slit in the front……

26 Thus Far

Well 26 started off on a high of note! Last year I shared with you my 25 Lessons in 25 Years but this time around I'm sharing with you how I've just been coping with ...growing up!                                        …

How To Style The Pleated Skirt

Hi All! You may have noticed the growing trend that is pleats! The very pleats that a lot of us probably nostalgically remember our moms and grans wearing. There is actually a variety of pleat styles to choose from though the most commonly known styles are the side pleat (a.k.a the knife pleat), box pleat……

Embroidery-It’s all in the detail

Effortless Style

Hey! This... is... the most random outfit I've ever put together hence there's not much to say about it. I picked up the skirt in my hands first, looked around my room then the hat and ended up with this outfit. Voila!   This outfit is focused on the skirt. A flared skirt creates the…

Button up / Button down

I wanted a denim A-line skirt for so long,  I'd find one but they were all way too short (#tallgirlproblems) but I eventually found one at Mr Price which I shortened to the length of my choice.  Turned out pretty neat.  This is one of my favourite items because its got a retro 70s vibe…

Vintage Vibes

This vintage baroque style skirt just stood out, had to grab it! I'm yet to find ways to style and accessorize  it better but for now the white shirt and works.  Maybe a denim shirt will do. I dunno.
