Lookpost: Purely Shaded

 

Hi Beauties,

It's been a while I know, I'm not even gonna go into detail about where and what I've been up to that's keeping me away from blogging because overall life's busy for everyone right?
 I promise not to be long because it's that time of the year when work needs to get done and don't even talk about that end of year hustle and bustle. I think the pictures that Quanita from Quanita E Photography took goes perfectly with that hustle and bustle saying hey?

So jumping straight to the point, I've had the opportunity to do a collab with Roeshqua from the brand Purely Shaded .
On the pictures you'll see two looks using the same top but different skirts. I've styled it in a formal and semi formal way but these looks can really be worn formal or casual there's no right or wrong, I can easily see it being styled differently with sandals or sneakers for a more casual look. I'm mostly a formal person and that's why I styled it that way but if you would like me to show casual looks as well give me a shout.
Lastly, I really like the cut of the top, covering the arms and also the chest area and the fact that it's longer at the back is a plus!

Sunset, Sophistication and a pop of Lime.

I always get the question do you dress like that to work everyday? where do you get the time? yes I do.And believe me I don't have the time but I make the time.
I believe a female must always present herself in a professional manner whether its going to work or just a quick shopping. Its not only appearance that counts but your overall attitude towards life, others and yourself. I try my best to always look presentable when leaving the house, remember the saying about first appearances lasts forever. I'm not saying be mad like me and apply make-up when ever you leave the house, yes that I do, lol, but at least make sure you look decent. Know what looks good on you. A person doesn't have to wear expensive clothes to look good.

About the look:   A Formal/ Professional, Sophisticated  look with a pop of Lime..
On days when I don't have much time to match my outfits with my shoes and accessories etc I go for the black office look which is always the quickest and easiest option. To mix pastels in will not only brighten up your outfit but your day too, you'll get so much compliments because the black makes the colour stand out more.
I'm wearing black the ulimate formal colour mixed with lime which just brings so much energy to the outfit.I also added some lime accessories.

Even though it was windy that evening the view was just oh so stunning and it felt so peaceful and what made it more beautiful was the sunset.

I don’t understand
how a woman
can leave the house
without fixing herself
up a little, if only out
of politeness.

And then, you never know,
maybe that’s the day
she has a date with destiny.

And it’s best to be
as pretty as possible
for destiny.
