''The Duster''

''Sweeping in Style with the Duster''

Its official guys.. the ''Duster'' is definitely an autumn/winter essential that everyone needs in their wardrobe! I mean, what could possibly go wrong with the Duster?

This wardrobe essential can be worn casually in the daytime or formally for evening wear. 

If your thinking about wearing this lovely piece in the daytime, I would recommend wearing it with perhaps some trainers as it adds a sports chic element to your outfit. Furthermore, it proves to be an extremely comfortable outfit for those running around days. However, if you'd prefer to wear the Duster in the nigh time I would recommend sandal heels or chunky heeled ankle boots! These are a must as they keep the sophistication of your outfit in place. 

Another Autumn/Winter trend would be the Fedora hat which keeps your outfit cool and classy but most importantly adds a retro edge.

I hope this has helped guys, please leave comments down below :)

Also, I will be uploading a few back to school/uni OOTDs of me so please keep a look out!

Stay blessed,

''The Dreaded Reality Check Look''

Hey guys! 

I am so sorry for such a late post as I have been trying to figure out what OOTD's that I should put up since the weather has been on and off! 

However, I have spent this week going around west end looking for some A/W inspiration.

To be honest with you I thought looking for inspiration would be so easy, but it is the complete opposite! I mean, there's so many looks to wear for the coming season that it's so hard to decide which one will suit you best. So, to solve this problem (if your also having it), I would definitely advise you to try as many looks as possible and don't just stick to one. I say this because it's the only way your style can grow because you learn about what your most comfortable with, but most importantly - what suits you best. 

And so in saying this, above are two outfits that I have created which reflect my constant change of decisions. I think these two outfits are definitely suited towards the next academic month for me. Yes you've guessed it... Uni is literally around the corner, and preparing myself for second year has not been the easiest thing (I'm still in that summer laziness stuck on my couch mood). But anyway, ''the lazy look''  will deffo be an option when running late to early morning lectures or spending long dreaded nights in the library. Yep, that sound's so depressing doesn't it? I'm still trying to convince myself that I'll be able to survive it by God's grace! 

All the same I hope these looks have helped guys.

Love always,

Chezza

The Infamous White Tennis Skirt

Did someone say throwback thursday?

For those of you guys that follow me on Instagram, you will probably recognise the picture of me in all white American Apparel.
This white tennis skirt has proved to be a key summer essential as it is stylish, sporty but yet very sexy!
This skirt definitely comes to life with a crop top, (preferably a white one)
 to achieve a clean all white look.
Secondly, accessorising this all white outfit with gold jewellery creates an urban appeal ,perhaps one that is considered 'ghetto chic', which is an upcoming trend this year. I must admit, this look is definitely inspired by tumblr as I have see the mini tennis skirt worn numerous times with a nike sports bra, (absolutely love it!)

If you like the idea of that type of look, I would recommend you should jazz it up with some white nike socks and cool kicks :)


I have a quick question for you guys; do you think this infamous white tennis skirt can be worn in Autumn/Winter?

If so, please leave some comments down below and let me know what you think guys :)


Love always,

The Last Days of Summer

                                         

Its creeping up guys... sadly summer will be over sooner than we can blink!

I think I'm just going to spend the last beautiful days of August finding out new things about myself and everything else around me. The location in my pictures for this weeks post is not necessarily clear, however, I will tell you that I was surrounded by a lot of trees. I thought that taking the pictures around so much nature would add to the summer vibe;(still hopelessly holding on to summer before it ends).

Ok, enough beating around the bush (get it? bush,nature), no?

 (I'll admit I am not the best when it comes to improvising jokes).

Haha, anyways I'm not quite sure what look I was going for here, but the whole vintage scene is definitely at work.

 For me, what completes this look or creates is the best hat ever, which I purchased from H&M. I literally cannot put this hat down! If you know me, you will know that I have the biggest obsession with hats. 

As well as my love for hats, this Notorious B.I.G shirt is my all time favourite purchase from Urban Outfitters and LET ME TELL YOU, I wear this cool laid back T-shirt with PRIDE. I guess what I love about it the most is, the soft colours used against the black bold background; it works well in creating a funky and edgy look. Secondly, the jeans which are thrifted help  bring back the vintage summer scene. A bit of random here, but I just want to give a quick shout out to my girl Melody who gave me some inspo with the combo of the light washed denim jeans, and the Topshop Kimono blazer! (We literally like the SAME things, LOL).

Also, I had to accessorise with gold jewellery, and what screams retro goodness more than  a gold Casio watch?
Finally, these lush gold rings from H&M,  go with absolutely everything and help tie up the whole look.

More posts to come!

Autumn/Winter Prep?

Hey guys!

So, I can't be the only person excited for Autumn/Winter trends right?

I think I'm so excited to the point where I consistently click on 'New In' ,on the websites of my favourite brands!

Secondly, I have been using my favourite app (Polyvore) as usual to create some outfits and give you guys ideas, on how essential pieces in wardrobe can be worn! One key piece that should never stop going in and out of ones wardrobe is a mesh T-shirt or anything mesh for that matter.

Seriously though, mesh is perfect for all seasons and acts especially well as a cover up over a crop top. Currently, my favourite item purchased is my Nike sports bra which I will be wearing during the colder seasons (Im being brave here, right?). But anyways, the oversized mesh T-shirt works superbly as a cover up because of its sheer goodness. Furthermore, the combo of both the mesh T and Nike sports bra help to create a clean simplistic look alongside the transparent clutch (which I am  dying to get)

 I've added some chunky sandals similar to the Doc Marten's make because remember, it is still is warm, so getting breeze somewhere is good right?

Also, the leather biker jacket is an essential for the season approaching because it has the power to tidy up a look in a matter of seconds, but also can be worn for many different looks, whether that being 90s grunge or a girly Sex in the City look.
Last but not least, the silver rings not only compliment the silver zip lining on the leather jacket, but also adds to the neutral colour scheme of the outfit in general.

I hope this has helped a little guys!

But do stay tuned for more of my outfit posts as well as Polyvore created looks.

With love,

Just Doing It with NIKE

Ok, so I think we can all agree that the sports brand Nike is giving us all life this season!

 I've noticed recently that my style has geared towards the sports chic side; I am constantly finding myself searching for as much adidas and nike sports bra's as possible!

Let me not even start on Nike socks, (which I am planning to style with nearly every outfit possible, for the colder season coming ahead!).

 A little bit of history behind this outfit:

 So I wore this literally on the hottest day possible after coming back from Ibiza. Despite it being black, I still had to pull through haha,  If there's one thing you should know about me guys,is that I am obsessed with black completely! Obsessed to the point that my wardrobe appears as a blank space to me (because it is literally stuffed with black clothes).

 I guess one thing about hoarding so many black clothes during the summer season is that I feel pretty ready for the season ahead; darker colour's are an absolute essential for Autumn/Winter and black will always be a must have colour in ones wardrobe.

Nike Sports Bra: Urban Outfitters
 Mesh Runner Shorts: Urban Outfitters
 Nike socks: Footlocker
 Nike Air Max 90 (Mono Edition): Footasylum 
Kimono Blazer: Topshop
 90's tatted Choker: Ebay

H E L L O :)

So hey guys my blog is FINALLY here! I've been meaning to make one for a while now (those of you who follow my instagram Polyvore posts are very much aware of this, oops!)

 All the same, I hope to constantly update you guys about different outfit ideas and how I put them together with the inspiration that I come across! And yes, I will deffo be letting you guys know more about me but until then guys stay tuned for more posts!
