HOW TO: Go Denim Less During the Weekend

I know many people say that during the weekend you should unwind and relax and this is reflected in their choice of dress. You store away your suits and pull out the denim. But what if you are tired of wearing blue jeans every Saturday or Sunday??? You can turn to khaki!! And just because it's the weekend doesn't mean that you throw your style out the window!!!! You can be casual yet stylish!!!
I wore this outfit last Saturday when I had a lunch date with one of my very close friends.I've worn this outfit before almost exactly as it is but I wasn't quite pleased with the turn out. So I decided to give it another go and tweak it here and there to see if it will be interesting and I must say I loved it.
I paired my army bubble skirt with a white t-shirt and my mustard coloured sweater. Then I added chocolate brown leggings because it was a little chilly in the morning. Adding leggings to a shorter skirt is a great way to transition your summer clothes into winter.



 To accessorize I wore my black ankle boots that have become a wardrobe staple!!! These shoes are so comfortable!! I can walk in them the whole day and not get sore feet. I added my black belt to add some interest to the outfit, and carried my metallic clutch. I finally got something metallic!!! I'm so happy. Anyway, moving on, for jewellery I chose my black chandelier earrings, cream coloured bangles, a black ring and black bead necklace.










While walking in town it suddenly hit me, why is everybody wearing blue jeans??!!! Thus I came up with a theme for this post. I think I'll dye mine a different colour. Blue jeans are too common.

White t-shirt: India

Style Challenge Day 6: Wear A Bold Print

 Hi guys. Phew! Last week was so crazy I couldn't keep up with everything, case in point my 30 day style challenge and weekly video. But I just had to get back to it this week. For day 6, I had to put on a bold print. I don't know if you have noticed but I am not very big on prints. Every time I shop, I automatically go for solid colours and if I pick prints it will inevitably be either stripes or florals. So for this challenge, I opted for a more abstract print. I love the colours of this tunic-style top. The chiffon fabric is light and breezy making it perfect for the warmer weather. I paired it with off-white skinny jeans and some beaded sandals. These sandals are a cross between flip-flops and sliders. I haven't worn such sandals in years so it was nice having a change from my usual shoes. I do believe however, that I need to open up a little to bolder prints and consequently add them to my closet.  Outfit Details: Top and sandals: Gift Jeans: Thrifted (G...

i2s NEWS: A LITTLE BUNDLE OF JOY

Hi all!! No words can describe how happy I am at the moment. A couple of months ago, I discovered that I was going to get the best gift any woman can wish for. I am are expecting a little bundle of joy early next year. I have not shared this news with many people and have been taking fewer and fewer outfit photos for this very reason. So now I can resume documenting this joyous time in our lives. One of the biggest perks about this new phase of my life is that every week my body is different. I’ve put on weight, moved up a dress size and can’t wear some of my favorite clothes and shoes. My heels have become unwearable because of the backache that comes after a few hours in them. I now prefer flats and when I get bored of those, I wear wedges.  As for my clothes, after I realized that wearing my old jeans was proving to be too uncomfortable, I packed them away and started wearing leggings. I now have three pairs of jeans whose waistline is still a bit comfortab...
