I'm a Pirate!!!

(October 24, 2011)

Yes! I'm a pirate lol. This entire outfit happened in 5 minutes. I was getting dressed for school, put on my jeans, and thought.."I want to wear stripes!" The top is actually a dress, second time I've doubled a dress as a top in the past two weeks, and they're both striped. Threw on the jacket, then my scarf, the boots were the last addition, but they really pulled it all together. I didn't mean to look like a swashbuckler that day, but ehh, it happens I guess.

A little bit of culture

(October 23, 2011)

So, since I haven't mentioned it before, I'll say it now. I'm Ghanaian; I was born in Ghana, West Africa. That isn't a random statement, lol. The top I'm wearing for this outfit is part of a 3-piece ensemble my aunt had made for me on her last trip to Ghana. I love it! So pink and pretty ^_^. I'll likely wear the entire outfit at some point and post pics.

Shout-out to mirror pics!

This post is almost a week overdue. On Friday, I took my sister on our first trip to Plato's Closet. I ended up spending money I wasn't prepared to spend (life story of a shopaholic..but I'm in recovery ;] lol). Anyhow, my best friend met up with us; we had a ball. 

I'm sorry for being bad

So..I've been lazy, lol. This past week, I didn't post any OOTDs because I didn't have time to take pictures. I did, however, wear some cute outfits; boots&cardi combo on Monday, nothing on Tuesday (bummy no class day lol); another boots&cardi combo on Wednesday, and Oxfords on Thursday. Outfits for Friday and Sunday are coming :). ALSO!!! "Ways to Wear a Square Scarf" is coming up, too ^_^.

It's a Man's World . .

(October 16, 2011)

Not really, but it's an appropriate title. I have ventured into the world of menswear inspired looks, thanks to the lovely Stephanie at Chocolate Laced. Ever since I saw her look for the 21 Day Challenge, I decided it was time for my wardrobe to experience a man-over. 

Finally got to wear my socks ^_^

(October 14, 2011)

Hello loves! So two days ago I had a lazy day. Sorry ooo. lol that's my African coming out :p. Anyway, I literally stayed in all day wearing yoga pants, a tank, and sweater..smh. Oh well. Yesterday, however, I did errands with the BF =]. Annnnnd, I finally got to wear this pair of socks I bought a few yrs back.

Red Cheetah come before my forest . .

Hiiiii. So I loved this outfit. I've always adored cheetah print with red. It's such a vavavoom combo..when it's done right. It reminds me of Fran Fine from The Nanny lol. 

For another day . .

Good morning Divas,

I had an amazing idea for an outfit today..sadly, it will not come to fruition. So, I may just post it tomorrow, even though I don't have much of anywhere going *sigh* ahh well =]. Back to the drawing board.

Rumpelstiltskin made me this top . . ;)

(October 11, 2011)

Not really..but this gold tone, loose-knit, high-low, dolman sleeve top (that was a mouthful) is very versatile. Originally, I paired it with a simple black jersey knit dress, but I changed my mind =p. The weather was unseasonably warm today, so it was a great outfit for doing my errands :). 

I can't *cough cough* I'm sick . .

(October 11, 2011)

Good morning Divas,

I'm currently feeling under the weather..so I might not do an OOTD today =[. I might, though lol. Hopefully.

Sheer Genius

(October 10, 2011)

The star of this post iiissss..*drumroll*..my favorite, sheer tunic :). I snagged this lovely floral piece a few summers back, when I first decided that leggings were ok by me (that's another story, hmm). I used to wear it over leggings, a waist belt and cardi now and then, but it has since migrated to every season of my wardrobe, and I sure ain't mad about THAT! I wore this outfit on a day out with the sis♥.

Kinda nautical . . but nice ;)

Sunday night=movie night! (when there's a 3-day weekend) *btw, Real Steel, awesome movie!*

Annyyyhow..I was still drifting on my new-scarf-high, which I picked up Saturday afternoon, and wanted to use it SOMEHOW! A necktie was a bit too.. prep-school for the movies; belt it is! (ways to wear a square scarf..coming reeeaaalllyyyy soon ^_^).

Savvy Sunday

(October 9, 2011)

Hello Divas! So..this past Sunday, I decided to implement my new wardrobe staple, a square scarf *love*! I wanted a more studious look so I wore it as a necktie (coming soon: ways to wear a square scarf). I loved the primary color scheme; enjoy!

A new beginning..

Dear Divas

today will be the first day of my new blog..the unveiling is just around the corner. OOTD and OOTW will be coming soon ^_^.
