The Style Cheapskate: dress

LAVENDER RUSH

Pastel shades are my thing. Mint, blush pink, lavender and the likes. SheIn sent this to me recently and I picked this dress because its versatile. Its perfect if you work in a corporate enviroment or it can pass for a normal Sunday outfit. I decided to pair it with white accessories to bring out the pastel shades more.

BROWNIES

90s

This has to be one of my favourite posts ever. I was going for an all brown 90's look. Dress, shoes, hair and makeup. I think I got this dress when I was in the university for a ridiculously cheap price. Yes, way back (we are talking 2008/2009) but I still love it. Its pretty easy to wear and can be styled up or down. Notice how I matched leopard prints with my shoes and sunnies? And oh, that lip colour! Now, that's what I'm talking about.

DASHIKI DRESS

So a while ago my dad was away for a whole month and trust him to return with a goodie or two. This pretty dress was my gift from him and I like that it is not the usual dashiki style in tops and straight dresses. I've worn this casually but I thought to dress it up a bit. I figured this will go well with an edgy pair of shoes so I opted for these caged heels and a vintage mini-bag. I took these photos myself! Yippie!

THE MULTI-COLOUR SHIFT DRESS TWO WAYS

The generous people of Jumia sent me a voucher recently (as usual) and I shopped some really nice pieces. This dress is one of them. I could not resist the colours and the print. I think this particular dress is sold out but there are similar and even prettier Vera & Lucy dresses still available. Check all the links below and oh, I'm showing you how to wear this dress from day to night. Plenty more outfit posts coming soon.

RED BIRTHDAY GIRL

ITS MY BIRTHDAY!

I feel like so many of us say the same thing on our birthdays but really what is more important to say than THANK YOU GOD! I'm thankful for the gift of life itself, for being alive up until this very moment. For all my experiences in the last twenty six years (I can't believe its been that long and yea I'm not one to hide my age). For the gift of family and loved ones. For good health of mind and of body. For everything. I am so thankful.

LEMONADE

Few months ago, I saw this dress on On-Air Personality, Toke Makinwa and I knew I had to have it. I really had to. So I purchased it from PayPorte a while back. It was the first time I shopped on that site and its safe to say that I was not disappointed. I love this dress, love love love it.
