3 Ways to Style a Floral Skirt!

Hello Beautiful!! It's been a minute, and I've missed You!

This week's Monday was my 24th b-day, and as I styled my outfit of the day, it HIT me that the skirt I chose to wear, I had worn twice before and one of the times was for my 22nd b-day! I'm all about recycling clothes these days. So here's 3 ways I styled this floral skirt...

Club Life!

The first time I wore this floral skirt I paired it with a black corset top and black pumps for a grown and sexy look in the club. I accessorized the outift with gold and pearl accessories for a touch of sophistication and to make the outfit more formal.

You can create the same look by pairing a floral skirt with a lace crop top or sequins bustier. In that case keep your accessories simple and shoes simple.

Busy Body!

The second time I wore this skirt was for a photo shoot for Eyecon Bahamas Celebrity Minx Nails with photographer Andrew L. Newton. For this look I paired the floral skirt with a gold studded black tee and a black faux leather trimmed jeans jacket. I wore my Jeffrey Campbell inspired heeless wedges and simple gold accessories with a black clutch.

You can recreate this look by pairing your floral skirt with a blazer, and leggings or stalking during the Fall/Winter season or even for Work! Just swap the wedges for a pair of Mary Jane pumps.

Casual Mix!

The third I wore this skirt I paired it with a striped racer back tee and gold and black ankle sandals. I accessorized with a gold chain link necklace set with neon pink details. I mixed prints for this casual look.  For a better view of my necklace set ==> CLICK HERE!

You can recreate this look by pairing the floral skirt with a polka dot shirt and peep toe flats.

I hope this look inspires your next outfit! Remember, "always dress to express yourself."

OOTD: MIX, DON'T Match!

Hello Beautiful!!

I've been inspired by the creativity and braveness of a few of My Fashion Icons, as they mix all kinds of colors, materials, prints and texture into one STYLISH CLASH of an outfit!

Some looks are not for everyday wear, but there are those occasion where You can mix it up a little bit to turn heads.

This past weekend I attended the Bijoux BAHAMIAN Hair Battle and Showcase. And with so much BOLD, CRAZY, CREATIVITY filling the room, I felt right at home in a MIXED UP outfit!

Full Outfit

The Mix of this outfit is so bold and hardcore, that if I wasn't wearing a skirt and heels I could've passed for a cowboy! This shows Me that I'm becoming bolder with My fashion and style. And sometimes you just have to push that envelope...

Although I'm rocking denim, leather and snake skin, I softened the outfit and made it sexy with a sleeveless top, short skirt and heels. Also, every piece of clothing is neutral and allows me to play with the other. Think about it, you can where denim with almost anything, leather with almost anything and animal prints with almost anything as they also serve as a neutral. I accessorized with gold to balance out the metallic in my shoes, with pearls for femininity, and with this neon bag for a pop of color and reminder that its still spring and soon summer!

I hope this look inspires your next outfit! Remember, "always dress to express yourself."
