KNOW YOUR WARDROBE.

We all have those outfits that we love to wear. It could be because it's a designer, and it cost you an arm and a leg. Or it could be it just has this perfect fit which in most cases is the reason why people tend to like a certain outfit more than the other outfits.

So you get up, decide to wear your most expensive outfit, and you realize that it's picked up dust. If you get to invest in a steamer, then you are good to go! It will save you the hustle.

The Steamer.


Get your repair kit right


One morning, you wake up, and this expensive dress you intended to wear is torn, not something major but then the hems can be seen (which can be very annoying). So all you need to do is mend it right? But how can you do that if you don't have a proper repair kit? Get safety pins, buttons, different colors of threads, scissors, marker pens all that will come in handy one day to save the procrastination that we all tend to do. Not everyone likes to go to a cobbler, tailor just because you feel that's a waist of time. Well, if you have this kit, then you will always have your outfits on point!

Stock on staples



I am 100% sure that we all have those outfits that clashes with nearly everything in our wardrobes. But funny thing is, when we bought it, we thought it's the best outfit ever to own!(I am a victim to this)  Well, most of the time this happens when we do the impulse buying. You out on a vacation with your girlfriends and all you doing is a shopping spree (which we all like) you see this nice outfit and you can afford it, so you go a head and buy it. Months later you realize you can't find any outfit to pair with. So what happens? you just leave it hanging. 

To avoid having a pile of such pieces that's always a nightmare to pair, invest in neutrals. Neutrals in one's wardrobe is always a plus!

Look different, Maintain your Class.

We all have a story to tell when it comes to our wardrobes....we have those outfits that in a month we can wear once, while some in the same month you can be spotted wearing three times a week!!!! I tend to have such outfits.

Well, some outfits are just timeless and each and every wardrobe should at least have one if not all...

The Long double breasted blazer


This is how to rock a long blazer with a long dress without having to look funny. Normally, guys opt for a long blazer paired with pants or a short dress/skirt...getting the right kind of blazer can be tricky to match a long dress. Spice up the look by wearing some kick ass heels!


Nude on nude is classy...and different shades of nudes can be playful if picked well! 

The Pussy bow-tie blouse


What makes this silk blouse stand out is the detail used in the neck. It's not only a bow tie, but the bow tie creates ruffles making it timely and fashionable. Choosing a longer bow is a plus compared to the normal short lengths.

Rock this on a Friday to the office and trust you me, you'll be trendy,stylish and classy! No lie about that.

Pussy bow tie blouse paired with leather skirt


Above the knee skirts are always the best when it comes to having those legs for days. If you've been trying to show off those legs, then skirts above the knee will be a must in your wardrobe.

Culottes


It's always good to think outside the box. Forget the boring work dress code from Monday to Friday. 

Be different, look trendy, stylish and maintain your class.

Culottes look good if paired with loose fit tops like the one above. You can choose to go for a short culotte or a long culotte. I love the style since it's comfy yet stylish!

The VMA's finest outfits!

Rihanna has always been my number one fan, and part of the reason why I watch the VMA's, is her. I love her styles, from street, sweet, to a sophisticated lady especially in this Alexandra Vaulthier Couture dress.

What a stunning way to receive the Michael Jackson Vanguard Award! She slayed throughout the night!!


Well, this was an ouch moment for Drake....just when he thought he'd get that kiss, Rihanna slides! Her gown was a killer for sure! And the detailed belt even made the look so chic and classy!


Then came this performance....pastel chaps-inspired look, and she was wearing, Hood by Air, and she looked bad-ass! Unlike her other performances where she'd rock black, this time she surprised many by rocking this cotton candy color, and she was for sure looking so gorg! 



For her after party she went for a thigh grazing shirt dress, added to the look a minimal belt that matched her strappy shoes and her bubble gum Miu Miu wallet was noticeable too! Which reminds me, her nails were pink! 


Queen B! She literally had wings around her neck with this pale blue Francesco Scognamiglio Couture gown.


Blue Ivy looking gorgeous too! Mummy, daughter moments at the Red Carpet, and it's priceless.


Britney Spears's Julien Macdonald dress nude detail was a plus. She looked, simple and chic! Her Christian Louboutin shoes added that Vaa vaa voom look!


Hailey's Georges Chakra jumpsuit was one of a kind. The fact that the jumpsuit covers up the shoes shows that the tailor was on point with the details in the outfit irrespective of it's light fabric! It's different from the other jumpsuits.


Tinashe all grown! Wearing a Juan Carlos Obando. It's simple yet elegant! Little skin too was showing which was a plus.


Minaj was looking savage in this Bao Tranchi gown that left most of the guys keeping their imagination to themselves!


Campbell was also looking good in this Brandon Maxwell dress. The length was perfect, it showed off her long legs. Simple, yet elegant.
