Revolving fashions// fashion

OVER & OVER

Fashion really is a like a revolving door. If you look at fashion books or magazines you see styles that were worn in the 60s 70s - 90s are back. Full skirts or the off shoulder trend, worn by Bardot in the 50s, the sunhat from the 60s & 70s. Polka dots seem to be around forever and really cute. Red is also big for now - red leather boots.

The fall fashions seem to be big on blazers or jackets. I love blazers with slacks or worn with jeans for a casual look. Something about it looks polished and bit more stylish.
Love the Balmain blazer with its smart gold buttons ., a definite style that will last you years.
Blazers are really a worthwhile investment, be it for work or the casual wear. The details , cut and lengths are things to look for .

GETTING THAT FALL FEELING

Here are my favourites for fall.

Double breasted is classic but still can be worn more casually . wear that polka dot top under or something red. i.e. shoes purse scarf or lipstick.
Tip: change the buttons, to get a different look.

MORE BLAZERS

A statement fun print will definitely work with leather slacks or skirt and a great ankle boot. Styled to the max.

DETAILS flowing collar and zippered pockets

is ideal for work or anytime. Looks almost like a

jacket. so can be worn most any season.

Spring or fall with a sweater knit top, dress, or slacks jeans

SO what is your go to outfit for the fall season???

CAMOUFLAGE STYLES// Fashion, designer

SOMETHING DIFFERENT I have to say I love color and prints, and when I saw the work of this Kenyan photographer Thandiwe Murui , I was in AWE. Such vibrant prints that make a statement . The prints or the checkerboard are definitely eye- catching. ( I happen to have a checkerboard top that I wear as a coverup) This might not be for everyones taste, but sometimes it is fun to be a bit wilder! THE SWIRLS love this print and the colour combination . Vibrant and fun! A MOD- FLORAL this print that looks like a Sunflower is perfect for summer. JUST BLENDING IN CHECKERBOARD ANYONE? find out more about her work here Thandiwe via BBC images via Thandiwe Murui

INSTAGRAM REAL STARS?

WONDER IF SHE IS REAL? How many people follow their favourite instagram and feel perhaps this is what a real person looks like and maybe lives like. I am not talking celebrities like Rihanna or Kardashians or any of the other major celebrities . I am not a big follower of instagram, but for those that are there are a few surprises such as one very popular Instagram Star is actually a virtual reality image, not a REAL person.
