The Nudes.....

What comes to your mind when you see this color....NUDE?

........well, simple, the color is NUDE. So what comes to your mind is NUDE right? You are so right!

The cashmere nude dress

Spice up the look....add a detachable belt for that edgy look. Then another thing about this outfit...it's so flexible, you can dress like this to the office and look very stylish, or wear it to a meeting.....or be the boss lady and wear it to a club...I mean be different! That's what I call style!

You can opt for brown-strap heels and a brown clutch or go all NUDE....wear nude heels... The nude heels instantly elongate your legs.

I love love love love love.....anyone can rock this heels and still look the ish!

So when I say detail is key when it comes to fashion, this is the detail I talk about. After all, a girl should be two things, classy and fabulous. 

Lovely weekend!

CURVES ARE BEAUTIFUL..!

Plus size women are also sexy....Always have in mind that, "It's not about what size you wear, it's about how you wear your size."

Purple dress with lace detail. 

You can show your girls without looking too too too too...yeah!

This look is appropriate for a TUESDAY....Monday was slow and boring right? so bring in some color....

You can never go wrong with black....that's why every woman need that LBD! A slightly longer length will look good on a plus size woman compared to a shorter one. Thanks to Style network...

Shoes: MARSALA

This look is appropriate for a WEDNESDAY.Tuesday was bright right? explore your wardrobe...dress like it's your first date!!!

Black suit and purple camisole to brighten up the look

This look is an appropriate look for a MONDAY...you know.meetings and all that...It's a slow start anyway...at least for me Mondays are slowwwww....

A line dresses have that slimming effect...so always go for them to emphasize your slim waist..

This look is appropriate for a THURSDAY...Welcome the FRIDAY look...You can show some skin...and by skin I mean, the dress can be slightly above the knee for that killer look but then it doesn't have to be too tight....Tight will make you look bigger...

Grey oversize sweater

Burgundy capri pants

Grey heels with bow detail

This look is so chic and appropriate for a FRIDAY!!! You can tell from the model's look.... ''AM READY FRIDAY..."or better still, am sexy and I know it....woooh!!

I just love this look...especially her tee....NAUGHTY! 

The look is appropriate for a SATURDAY.... shopping sprees with the girls, licking ice cream...you name them...running errands...reason being, it's so comfy! Always go for flats when up and about.

Let's go to church kids....appropriate look for a SUNDAY...you don't need tight clothes on a Sunday...it's family time...the kids will be all over you...so be easy on the clothes.

Lovely Wednesday guys...hope you dressed like it's your first date....aaahhh?

Bringing sexy back!

#Fashion faux pas......

So how well do you know your DO's and DON'TS when it comes to fashion and style?

Some of the top fashion faux pas that you need to look out for this year and the years to come are;

Peeking bra straps.
This is almost like a nightmare why lie....everyone if not all have done this blunder.

Really?? this is a NO NO NO...you have your tank top and you want to wear a bra? then go for the racerback bra or strapless bra....this is what you should go for..or at least have it in your closet. You never know you may need it not only for the tank tops but for your dinner dresses, jumpsuits...

Alternatively you can opt for a criss cross bra.

Or you can opt for strapless...

Poor fitting heels 

You've bought those cute cute pair of heels only to realize that was the last pair...and the smallest size. So you decide I will buy them anyway...I had better have a bigger size than a smaller size. 

Cute nude shoes right? But aaoooo too big. Oops! That's a NO.

Muffin top

Ooops....

Just get the right pants...opt for the high waist pants and a longer tee...that will hide "that" for sure!

Wrong underwear

This could be anything worn under...bra, panty, bikers..all that's worn under.

Like seriously..?what's with all the ridges? This look has got to go!!! Opt for a thong or better still the seamless underwear. Say no to VPL...(VISIBLE PANTY LINE)

Hell no....NO NO NO...

Tight fitting clothes

You still look good without those tight clothes anyway...so let those "girls" breath...

Fashion faux pas....

Sandals with socks

Normally it's men who love doing this...you chilling in the house then that bell rings...you pick your sandals with your socks on...then open the door, then to your gate...your guest comes in...you realize you need to pick something from the shop. You then dash...with your sandals and socks on...you end up in a shopping mall....seriously?

Like seriously....how now how?

Then you realize people staring at you only to notice that your sock is torn....

Ooopsss....

Then your girlfriend will end up like this..

Be on the look darlings....

Color Pantone 2015/2016

Finally we have the color of the year 2015! Want to give it a guess?

.......well the color is MARSALA. Please don't confuse it with chips masala...yummy color I guess. Anyone would confuse it with the color Maroon or Burgundy. But I still think I can call it any of the names...mmmh?

Beyonce rocking the MARSALA color....

It's marsala...

Some of the key colors from the catwalk 2015....

Blush.....it's a shade of pink.

 Another shade of pink....BUBBLEGUM...

Some highlights for 2016 color pantone...SKY!

Then we have the PISTACHIO color...all the yummiest colors I swear wohoooo!

Then the MUSHROOM.....

So let's see the fabrics that are also trending....

The TWEED fabric! One is likely to confuse this with worsteds...or flannel fabrics if not keen.

So better be on the look for this 2015/16 color pantone and stand out. 

I am excited about the London Textile Fair 2015/2016...Better watch it...it's on January 14th and 15th...

Other fabrics are; cotton, silk, printed fabrics, fancies, synthetics...

It's all PURPLE!

Well....,

 I have never had a specific or should I say a favorite color? Normally you'd ask me, 'What's your favorite color?'  and I would pause for like a minute trying hard  not to mention more than one color. Then my answer normally is, 'Blue...I guess....'. Oh actually mustard...no peach maybe...arrrghhh I actually ain't sure what my favorite color is.

So I woke up and tried out this...PURPLE!

Purple top: Thrifted

Purple high waist skirt: KendyMe

Nude pigalle shoes: G spot

Red Moschino handbag: M&M

White Christian Dior watch: Moza

Green fields: Mayfair Hotel

It's alright shoes....I love you! You know that...

And just like that...am loving this color PURPLE!

Kill that office look.

It's that simple detail that makes one stand out. Have you ever gone shopping and when back home you feel like you actually run the world and that no one and I repeat NO ONE has that particular outfit? Well, am sure that has happened to many people especially if you shop in 'specific places'. Does that ring a bell? like 'specific places'? It actually does ring a bell at least for me, this has happened to me. You meet with someone and think that you're in a choir or something.....

So here is how simple one can dress and still stand out...am talking about that sophisticated look ladies! Once in a while it's good to hear that 'wow' when you get to your work place.

Do you have an office party any time soon....I mean an end year party or something? This skater dress will definitely make you stand out...you know why? It's simplicity is just amazing amazing...pair it with pigalle heels and you will be killing it like something else! I would go with the black pearl earrings to complete this look!

Do you want to be and look like a boss lady? Mmmh...Well, go for this snowy white tuxedo suit and trust you me, you'll just be saying...'oh thanks thanks'..oh my God thank you!! Everyone apart from the few who don't like or never appreciates when one is on point, will compliment you. Trust me on this one.

 

Remember fashion is what you buy, style is what you do with it. Always have that in mind every time you go for those shopping sprees.

 

This is the kinda detail I was talking about. The double side pockets 

 

For that killer look, the trouser should have tapered legs.

 

 The satin detail used in the pockets is another detail.

The back welt pocket is another detail you don't want to miss in this tuxedo!

Fabric used: Spandex and polyester

Color: White/snowy 

Detail fabric: Satin

Finally, it's not about brand, it's about style. And by this I mean, it could be the luxurious fashion brands but then with no style, so yeah, shop well. Actually, take your time shopping....don't just shop for the sake of shopping...
