Fashion Post: Outift Of The Day - Welcoming Winters

Winters are here and long sleeve shirts and sweatshirts are already out of the closet. Today I'm sharing a casual outfit of the day to welcome the winters. 

I chose to wear a full sleeves t-shirt paired with slim fit trousers. I really wanted to do this shoot outdoors but the sun seems to hide behind the clouds every time I take out my camera!

I spotted this t-shirt online and loved the print detailing on the sleeves. To add a bit of spunk to the otherwise extremely casual attire I decided to wear a statement necklace with big bold beads. The colors in the beads actually go well with the pattern detailing on the sleeves of my shirt.

For the trousers, I swapped out my jeans with a pair of corduroy trousers that are slim fit. Corduroy is my favorite trouser fabric for winters as it keeps me warm and comfortable throughout the day. I chose to match my outfit with these pair of heels in a mint green color. I am still practicing wearing heels for longer periods of time - the max I have gotten so far without spraining my ankles is 2 hours.

Fashion Post - OOTD - My Floral Gypsy

Hi friends, I got so much love on my red carpet outfit post that here I am a bit more confident of sharing another outfit of the day with you. 

I am calling this summer outfit My Floral Gypsy

My Floral Gypsy - Flagstaff Floral Skirt & Clearwater Anchor Clutch

For a day out in the hot summers I opted for a light chiffon shirt in plain white and teamed it up with a bright bold floral skirt.

The skirt has a zippered closing and a smart plain pleat near the left knee. The length is just appropriate,  not too much of skin show and yet short enough to let your legs breathe.

I carried my phone and some essentials in this envelope clutch which has a nautical anchor pattern. I think it went well with my outfit.

For the feet I chose to wear my current favorite white sandals which I love for their ankle strap pattern.
