The Colour Scheme - A/W 15

No Comments »


I've always wondered if there is a fixed colour scheme that one must adopt during a particular season. For instance, summer usually reveals a pastel blue, green, pink and yellow colour scheme in the streets. You might also find that there are various prints and bright colours that are found on every item possible. 

Winter for me usually entails a lot of black, white and grey. Monotone colours is simplistic and can be styled in various ways. This season was no different for me except front he fact that I'm now more of a stylish comfort dresser. This usually involves a fitted pair of jogging bottoms, polo neck top and a pair of trainers. Although, this is usually only for my 9am lectures. Being warm and comfy is incredibly essential for this season as the winter nights can be quite brutal. Nevertheless, it is nice to add a stylish piece of clothing to create the final look. For me, its usually a jacket.
Here are some of the examples that I'm loving for this season in line with my preferred colour scheme.

As I Recently stated in my previous post, I'm an avid lover of the colour black , so I thought I'd create a look with some of the items I'm loving and hoping to purchase in the next upcoming weeks. Who says you can't wear black and look stylish? 

How you all style an all black outfit?

As you get older, I guess your style may change. This has clearly been apparent for me as I've noticed that I've become more drawn to the more simple staple wardrobe pieces that look much neater and cleaner. These pieces can be worn in both summer and autumn, with a little bit of a tweak in each season. For me right now, I'm L O V I N G H&M and their simple and cheap items that I don't even know why I didn't like H&M before? Beats me. They have really nice staple pieces with lovely shapes and such cheap prices that I can happily afford. 

The White tee can easily be paired with a lot of items that you can easily throw on when you're in a rush or on your way to school, which I will be doing quite often and it can look really nice with a pair of jeans. Whether its black denim, light wash denim or a dark navy denim pair of jeans, you simply can't go wrong. 

I also really love the light blue blouse which I've been seeing on Hannah from COCOBEAUTEA on her Instagram page which I love!

Anyways, enough of the rambling, hope you all enjoy the rest of your summer.

This is just a quick outfit I put together for the sweet summer were hoping to have here in England. Lately the weather has been amazing, sometimes even unbearable but I hope it stays this way as I have a lot of plans this summer to have some fun before my last year in school!

Hope you all enjoy your day.

What a casual look this is, isn't it? Sometimes it good just to stick with comfort which is exactly what I thinking about when creating this look on polyvore for my media project I'm working on. Who knew editing a picture on Photoshop could be so hard, thank God I had peers who were willing to help. Sorry I 
haven't posted in a while, exams are in literally 5 weeks and I just cannot believe how fast the year has gone. Soon, I'll be off to University, yay. Well that all requires hard work and effort so sorry if I run off for while. Check out all my social media in the mean time as I'm quite active there. I've also got some great news to share... I had my first ever photo-shoot as assistant stylist a couple of weeks ago!! I still can't believe it, don't worry I will be be able release some pictures once I get a heads up from the designer for, who by the way I'm interning for. 
 Hope you are all having a great week so far. More to come in my next post, see you then!

Recently, I have been loving 'white' clothing due to its simplicity and although I haven't really got a lot of white clothing, I think there is no harm in looking a little bit chic even in the winter. it also reminds me of snow which mean....Christmas!! One of the best holidays of the year! is anyone else excited about Christmas because I know a lot of stores are, since there are already so many Christmas decorations up.

Unfortunately my camera just recently stopped working and to be honest I am so gutted but, Thank God for my 2 year warranty. So, hopefully I will be able to get my camera fixed soon so I can get some outfit posts up which I have been hoping to do for a while.

Hope everyone has a lovely week!

 If you haven't heard of Polyvore then let me introduce you...
Polyvore is a photo collage website that many bloggers use to create unique collages with the help of some lovely templates on the website. I've just downloaded the app on my iPad and I really enjoy putting things together and getting creative. 

I will be creating some A/W looks since we are in autumn/fall now and some people might need inspiration. Follow me on Polyvore here.

2012 Summer Essentials and Trends

No Comments »

Recently, I went to the shopping centre with a couple of friends, and we had a little look inside some of the shops. The one thing I noticed that was consistently appearing on the racks were amazing new shapes of the peplum dresses and tops, electric blue chiffon dresses, and long maxi dresses. I decided to put together a few images of this seasons essentials and must haves. I will also be showing you ways in which you can style these pieces and create many fabulous looks. 

 



The first look was my interpretation of how to style a really classy Peplum dress from (New Look) which I recently saw on the online store. I paired it with these classic pair of black heels that can transform any look form geek-to-chic! Since I went with the more simple, classic night look, I paired it with simple jewellery as I think the neckline needs to avoid big statement jewellery, but don't be afraid to experiment with pieces. 

 
I decided to go with a paired down down daytime look with this amazing shade of blur chiffon dress with a frizzy cut in the front. Wedges are always a nice way to pair this dress with, without looking tacky. But, you do have to be careful with what colour you choose (I'm even not too sure about this colour), but remember, fashion is about experimenting and adjusting key trends to suit your personal style.
