Autumn Winter Looks

Hi Lovies,

I have finally jumped on the Polyvore train, still working my way around the site and trying to get used to it, however i have managed to create two collages for your viewing pleasure.

The first collage is an AW versatile look that can easily transition from day to night without losing the wow factor. Classy and sophisticated was my base and i just added a few things that i am really loving right now; which are leather, mustard and these little gorgeous clutch bags, all the while cautious of the fact that i didn't want to break the bank from a budge standpoint.

what do you guys think?


The next one is all about the bodycon trend, i think this trend is going to be here for while irrespective of the weather. What i love about the bodycon is that there is something for everyone, polo neck, long sleeve, mesh panels etc all worked into this ultra sexy look.

For winter i have my eyes on the polo neck bodycon dresses, both the long and sleeveless ones, i will definitely be wearing a lot of them this winter.

For the long sleeve polo neck dress below, i would pair it with a statement necklace to give it that WOW factor, these dresses are what i call 'licence to thrill', women with curves will definitely stun in these.

The Peplum Craze

It seems like every corner i turn, i see peplum, it is a key trend this season and i absolutely love it. It is a piece that literally everyone can wear for any occassion, and it is flattering for both curvy and slim ladies.

One of the things i love the most about peplum is it's versatility, the flow between formal to casual, exaggerated to a 'touch of pep', sexy to sohpisticated, with peplum you can do anything and go anywhere.

Here is how I've worn my peplum bits in the past and a few peplum pieces available from high street stores and online.

The Outfit Diaries : London Fashion Week

Day 1 : I chose a somewhat understated & almost business like look for the start of fashion week, mainly becuase i had to attend a meeting later in the day which was unrelated to fashion and didn't want to alarm anyone.

I have always loved anything peplum, it is very feminine and does wonders for ladies with curves, so naturally when i found this skirt on the Warehouse sale rail for £5, i snapped it right up with more than a smile.

Day 2: I decided to jazz things up a bit and what better way to do this than with this gorgeous Jacquard skirt from Asos Revive, worn with a high neck crop top also from Asos.

It was great to meet up with Henrietta of Henessys Beauty blog whom i went to college with and haven't seen since, lots of catching up on life, fashion and everything in between,  i also met promise and Wunmi for the first time too.

In the evening i headed off to my friend Chichi's Birthday party, for this i wore a gorgeous ultra feminine lace pencil skirt from Warehouse with a denim shirt to dress it down a bit. I think the denim shirt is an absolute God send to every wardrobe, i find that it works well with almost every fashion item, I've definitely got my money's worth from this shirt and would recommend it.

Day 4: It was a bit breezy on this day but i still felt like wearing shorts, so i simply wore it with tights. To be honest, not much thought went into putting this outfit, it is a very simple and quick look that can be replicated any day.
