Movie with my hubby...

Hola ladies, I love going to the cinema, the smell of fresh popcorn, ice cream, hot dog, etc. but I haven't been to see a movie in a while.  My hubby and I decided to watch "Prisoners" (watch trailer HERE). For this look I decided to wear the same skirt in my previous post (HERE) because it was on the same day and I paired it with this  lovely Aztec jumper gifted by my hubby.

The Fear of Skater Skirt...

Hello everyone, am sorry for not posting any pictures last week.
So I finally got my protective style done after almost 4 months of only 'wash and go'. The micro braids/pick 'n' drop was done all by myself and it took me two days to finish and I love the outcome.
I'm a great lover of skater skirt but I've never been brave enough to take the plunge, so I challenged myself to wear a "Skater Skirt" this weekend. I decided to pair it with a black top, white waist coat and black knee high boots. The outfit came out nice and I loved the monochrome vibe as well.

Fix your foundation...

Hello ladies, first of all I want to thank everyone for all the views, comments and likes. I appreciate the support and am glad this blog is reaching out to a lot of people. I got a comment a couple of days ago about how lucky I am not having a " pouch tummy". I smiled when I saw this comment because every woman has bits of her body she likes and bits she doesn't.

The foundation of any outfit starts from our lingerie to shape wear and finally our outfit. Most of us skip the second step 'shape wear' and this step is very important.  Shape wear should be every woman's best friend and it should be the foundation of every garment. Wearing shape wear helps to conture, accentuate and smooth everything out.

Am a great lover of shape wear because wearing the right shape wear can deliver a boost of confidence. “Shape wear provides the perfect canvas underneath clothing to keep them from clinging,” explains style expert and “The Bra Book” author Jene Luciani. 

Online clothing brand Marisota launched a campaign earlier this year about wearing the right shape wear for your body type/shape. This tool helped me understand the right shape wear for my body type and am sure it will be useful to all ladies. Shape wear can be very expensive and trust me it's worth it. There are a lot of cheap shape wear from Primark and the quality is fantastic to start with. 

It is essential that we know our body type before we know the right shape wear. You can click HERE to know your body type.

Date Night Outfit

Hello Ladies. I love date night, dressing up, daughter away for the weekend, good food, raving, etc that's my idea of spending quality time together with my hubby. This particular date night was fun filled and was more like a road trip. First of all, I wanted to attend a ladies night out event but that didn't happen (it was a shame i could not attend). My hubby and I decided to go chill with our friends before we set out raving for the night and by the way our daughter was enjoying herself with her grandparents.

Style Inspiration: Ethnic Jacket/Kimono

Hello Ladies, it's great to be back on my blogging routine. The weather was fab on Saturday, but it got a bit chilly later on... My weekend was about spending time with my husband (wink wink). It's important to create time for your spouse after a week of running around with the kids, cooking, shopping, the list goes on and on but we tender to forget who we fell in love with in the first place.
