Curves Around The World: Timeless



Hey, guys!!!
 
Finally I am able to write this post, wheeeuuww......
 
This weeks theme for Curves Around The World is Timeless. What pops on my mind when I hear this are pearls, black dress, lace, heels, red lips, denim, effortless look etc. I also think of classic outfits.
 
I am posting late because I travelled to Jo'burg on Wednesday this week for an interview on Thursday. Attending this interview was an opportunity to wear a classy outfit that relates to our theme.
 
Whilst waiting to be called in - my friend Pumla took few pictures of my outfit in the NICD foyer. I think I was dressed nicely for this interview and the weather was pleasant too.
 
I love timeless looks - I think I do them best especially with my casual wear. Yes, casual can be timeless too. Think about demin pieces, converse high tops, white vest, leggings etc... it all depends on how you ensemble the entire outfit.
 
What are your views for my timeless outfit???

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?
