What I Wore Today:Tuesday Ensemble

Hiya!

I'm back at school and planning my ensemble for the day is sometimes hectic and maybe even treacherous! But today i like what I'm wearing and thought to share it. Its simple yet effective for my loong days at school and running around. All my pieces are "comfort Pieces" that is my favourite but comfortable pieces of clothing that i love to mix and match. So today i'm wearing a beige shirt and dark denim both from Mr. Price, my belt is from Great Gear and leather purse was from my dearest mommy (Love you Mum :) )

Normally i smile but i was rushing so i forgot to smile. APOLOGIES :)

I tucked in my shirt! Making my look a little less casual.

I love the Bohemian-ness attached to this oversized bag. Perfect for anything.

My Weekend Ensemble: All Black

So i took advantage of the warm sunny weather on Sunday and decided to pop out my FAVOURITE maxi dress that i bought way back in SA while holidaying with my sister. Here i paired it with my Black blazer jacket and pastel pink purse with simple (yet comfortable) pumps and dark brown beaded necklaces i bought from the Avondale Fleamarket. My lovely dress was flowing with the wind.

Vibrant Colours Of The Rainbow

 

Over the long Heroes Weekend i did some "Summer Style Scouting", checking out all the looks and trends that will likely be popular this summer (i cant Wait) at the very popular Sam Levy Fleamarket on Sunday morning. I spotted quite alot of fun sorbet/ice-cream colours on shoes, blazers and maxi dresses. There was also a mix of leopard prints in there too, but by the looks of things or fashion in Harare; Blazers, Maxi dresses and Summer dresses are all the range this Summer. Here are A few pics to indulge in....

Trilby at Joina City's Kickstart

I’ve been showing so much love towards women’s fashion on my blog but today my attention is on a masculine piece of fashion which I honestly feel is the quintessential accessory. Show some love to the Trilby; I love the masculinity attached to the Trilby/Felt Hat which can also be androgynous at the same time. It’s so trendy without too much effort to it. I feel it’s a plus-factor accessory for the girls as you can wear it with a Maxi Dress in the summer or look sophisticated in winter with a cute overcoat, jeans and ankle boot! I recently purchased my own Trilby after having fallen in LOVE with it in the Mr. Price SA 2012 winter catalogues. It’s so versatile and stylish at the same time as it works both in summer and winter.  I’ve actually spotted it on quite a few guys in H-Town recently (sorry, no pics though).
