The Cropped Blazer

Hey beautiful people! 

Its been a minute since my last blog post, but I'm back! 

So in this look here, I put together an all black ensemble with a pop of color, which was my mint green cropped blazer. I purchased it last winter, but this was actually the first time I wore it! I love the zip detail on it, because you can wear it as is, or unzip the bottom part to switch up the look! I added my pearl accessory pieces, and a beautiful pastel print ankara clutch which I bought from the Woodin store in Ghana. For my hair I've been rocking the half up, half down high bun like everyday and I've been loving it!

Check out my video on how I achieved this hairstyle here!

Anyway, on to the outfit pics below :-)

Navy Blue Monochrome

Hey beautiful people! 

So there's something about structured shoulders that really appeals to me, and for that reason, this peplum top is one of my favourites. Not only do I love the cut of the top, but I also love the stencil detail on the the front and back, the exposed zip detail, and that its navy blue, (which is a color I don't own alot of). I decided to create a monochrome look by pairing it with dark, navy, skinny jeans from Old Navy. These are the Rockstar jeans (in petite), and are the only jeans I wear! They are perfect! The fit, the length, the inseam, they stretch, and it flatters my waist to hips ratio! I can honestly say that I enjoy wearing jeans again because of these particular ones! For my accessories, I decided on my navy blue perspex clutch and this statement pearl choker, (very similar to the Zara one) which has become a popular accessory piece amongst style bloggers. I got mine from Ebay though for next to nothing! To complete the look, I had to add a pop of color, so I wore my neon yellow heels, which i think complimented the navy blue quite nicely!
