Monochrome: Part 2

Good evening, fabulous ladies!

 

Tonight I am just sharing the post I did not use for my Curves Around the World - Monochrome Theme as I decided to use the previous post over it. The previous outfit post was inspired by this one. So these pictures I took  them when I went out with girls on a Saturday night out for drinks and Barbeque. It really was a great night and I was looking hot and sexy in my black and white number. I bought the dress at Asos in 2012 and I am still loving it big time.   

 

I should really mention that by the time I remembered taking these pictures I already had few glasses of wine and I was full with Barbie and that's confirmed by my loose dress belt hehehehehe. The quality and focus of these pictures is not great I am sure my photographer was in the same state, lol. What else can we do when we decide to let loose??? Overall, I had a great evening.

 

So, dig in folks and enjoy :) Your feedback is highly appreciated.

OXBLOOD SKATER

Good afternoon my lovely fabulous ladies!!!

 

You all know that when it comes to going to work on Mondays I try my best to look Fab because that is way I set the tone of how my entire week will be i.e. wardrobe and other wise. Moreover, mondays are not the best days to be at work after being on a free weekend. So by dressing up I lift my mood and gear myself to work and be focused for the day.

 

On a trip to Aliwal North two weeks back, I happened to bump into this Oxblood Skater Dress at Jet clothing store when accompanying a colleague of mine to look for slippers after a stressful day in a Data Management Workshop. Seeing this number made me feel light and happy as it did yesterday.

 

Because it was not severely cold I decided to wear a light black velvet jacket paired with ankle leather boots and pair of black leather gloves. Looking at these pictures I am happy I did not go overboard with the accesories instead kept them minimal.

 

How else would you accesorise this oxblood number without using black? Please respond keeping in mind that it is winter - therefore accesories must be winter relevant.

Enjoy the remainder of your afternoon fabulous ladies, until next time!!!

Turban and 80s inspired

Good Morning, Fab Ladies!!!

 

This post is about my yesterdays outfit. Wokeup not sure what to wear to work as I slept very late the previous night and was not keen in the morning to even wakeup. When fixing my hair after bathing I realised two single braids have come out in front of my hair. To be specific they came out from the fringe. That really pushed me off the wall as I lack skills to make or fix hairstyles.

 

 

As I was running out of time I immediately thought of a turban as a cover up for my problem which also made me think of this 80s Styled jacket. Because I knew I have this explosion of colour it became obvious that everything else must be a solid colour which im my case is BLACK. With accesories, I wanted to do gold but opted for white because I love taking risks (am saying this because I always wear this jacket with gold accesories and I needed to explore other colours). 

 

What do you prefer? Gold or White accesories?

 

So you know, this outfit is a hit for me because I received many compliments at work and around town even from strangers. For people who know me ... I am not sure if they complimented because they are not used to me in a head gear. Regardless, I am thrilled with the outcomes of this ensemble.

 

What do you think of the entire outfit? Hit or a Miss and Why?

Hey Fabulous Ladies!!!

Hope you had a fab week so far and are ready to celebrate the Human Rights Day tomorrow. Now that, is a break I have been waiting for cause I'm tired and definately looking forward enjoying having my "ME.ME.ME.ME.Time" Whats upseting though is that I, actually WE as Department of Health employees are working on Friday and are not having a long weekend like other employees from the Department of Education and Municipal employees. Why are we so unlucky :( I could do alot from tomorrow until Sunday, really of coz if I was given the long weekend!!!Really, who decides about these things??

Ok, enough about my moaning!!! Last Sunday after coming from my church meeting, I decided to go to the salon to get my mohawk braided. I have been looking forward getting my fringed braids :) It was really overdue.

Unfortunately, my hairstylist was out of reach because I spent my weekeend in Matatiele and was going back to Fletchie on monday morning. It was a must for me to get my hair done on Sunday because when the week starts it is hard to squeeze in salon appointments as we are super busy at work lately.

Thank God, my friend Zoe has a wonderful HouseManager who is highly skilled with hair. So, she hooked me up with my Fringed Braids. They were super tight and painful on the first day ... so much that I had to take pain pills to help me.

Monday came and I broke necks honey!!! Everyone could not help themselves but were forced to just look and appreciate my Wonderful HairStyle. It is unfortunate that I had no time to take pics. So, Tuesday was chilly and I had to warm myself up.

My inspiration for the day came from my recent purchase at Zandos "H by Hudson - Black Grafton Boots" - So, I decided to just go monochrome for the day. I really loved this outfit. Moreover, my Grafton Boots because I saw them by chance at Zando's website. I desparately wanted a pair last year 2012 and could not get the size from all websites and shops in Australia. I really gaveup on this shoe after many months of searching. They are really God sent. On this day it was their second wear. They are antique, comfortable, leather everything except lacies and a perfect height.

I bought these boots for winter and Id be pleased to hear your advice on how else I could wear these Vintage inspired boots.
