FLARED SLEEVES + HIGH WAIST TROUSERS
Hey guys, how was your weekend?
Mine was hella busy.
It's funny how weekends are supposed to be for rest but
nope especially with one being an adult. I miss being a child most times.
Over the weekend, I actually went to my tailor to pick up some of my items and
was disappointed to see that she didn’t meet my expectation. Standing there,I
felt like crying as I had imagined how I would style it and blog it. Though we
move still, once I get my sewing machine, this will be over.
Looking back at 2016 fashion
trends ranging from chokers to off-shoulders, the flared sleeve trend has to be
one my favourites. I love the added drama to a basic top which just changes
everything up. Today I paired this nude flared sleeve top previously styled here with one of my
favourite clothing items, these high waist pink trousers. I then opted for nude
single sole sandals to complement the top so as to keep everything minimal and
centred on the blouse. And little pop of leopard print in my purse added a
little extra spice to the outfit.
Now if there is one thing I
regret about my Bangkok days here and here, is the fact that I did not hop on
the thrift bandwagon earlier. These pants bought for about $1 almost three
years ago,has to be one of my proudest thrift finds along with this purple
high-waist pants (styled lookbook here and here)
And each time I rock it, I receive compliments with people
proceeding to ask where I shop. At the end of the day it’s not about the
brand or how much money you spend but about how you rock it. Because trust me
some of my favourite items are almost always thrifted like this flared sleeve blouse styled here.

Thanks for stopping by Rachel
DeleteI totally agree dear it’s not about the brand or how much money you spend but about how well you rock it. That's what I say all the time, I tell my friends here it's all about 'packaging' like we say. Anyways love the way you've styled the entire outfit.

Hi Rita thank you so much.
DeleteHahah Nigerian tailors disappointing since the beginning of time; I don't even get excited tnsew sec cos the style might not match at the end of day lol. Style definitely has nothing to do with brand or price just how you style what you've. Love the touch of print with the purse and. I'm coming for your pants
ReplyDeleteLol girl but initially I tested her and she did good. Even with my sister's item which we collected the same day. My issue with her was how she cut and positioned the material. Thank you for the comment. And lol you can have the pants but I want your plaid bomber.
DeleteYou kilt it as usual Sarah <3 :D
ReplyDeleteThanks girl
DeleteThis 'adulting' thing isn't a joke at all but we'll surely pull through. You can never go wrong with high waist pants. I totally love this look!
