*cliché alert* Sweater Weather

I had to do it, it was too easy!

With fall settling in at my doorstep, I can't help but think about trips to Starbucks in cozy sweaters and boots; My pockets won't be filled with lent and rusty pennies *texts dad begging* for long, so you can expect a pile of new clothes waiting to be worn in an outfit post! For now you'll have to settle for these virtual oh-so comfy and oh-too expensive-for-my-wallet-right-now sweaters/cardigans (check out my polyvore for where to get them) and the items I paired with them.

p.s. God knows I need some New Balance shoes in my life.

ShopPablo

After many months of thinking about opening up a shop, I have finally done it! This past week I've opened up an etsy account 'ShopPablo' where I sell a bunch of great thrift/antique finds that I know many will appreciate and love; Thrift stores (specifically Goodwill) have recently upped their prices which is why some of items are more costly than I would like, but overall its still a good deal, especially if you live in an area with mediocre thrift stores. On that note, feel free to check it out and tell me what you think!

YAYA DENG for YEN MAGAZINE

I'm going to pretend like these past 2 months of not blogging never ever happened... ever. So on that note, I came across yet another editorial; This one having to do with the ebony beauty, Yaya Deng. It seems like every other ebony model with a low cut carries the last name Deng (Ajak, Ataui, and now Yaya). Yaya was featured in Yen Magazine by Renee Carey, and looked absolutely stunning while sporting colourful printed ensembles.

It seems like every other editorial I obsess over is right out the page of a Yen Magazine... I just might have to get my hands on an edition or two.

Summer Ensembles

Clutch - Daily look // Shorts - BOOHOO // Sandals - Warehouse // Sunglasses - Trend Boutique // 

Top - Monki // Kimono - H&M

With just NINE days left till I'm home (Nigeria), I've been searching the racks of both the mall and thrift stores for some Summer essentials... so I put together three ensembles using three different pairs of the main Summer essential... SHORTS. With the scorching heat of Lagos showing no mercy, there is nothing to do but embrace it with shorts of different colours and cuts. Hope you love the looks and feel free to comment below with your go to Summer look/Polyvore.

p.s. despite Spring being long gone, I still plan on sporting some Spring colours
