Daisies.

by Jamila Pierre


I switched it up on ya!

I decided to do a little something different with my hair this time around, don't get too use to it though.

When I first laid eyes on this peplum top, I immediately knew how I wanted to wear it. This is saying something because I usually buy things not having one single clue what I plan on pairing it with, so if that wasn't a sign to buy it...I don't know what was. 

When I see something online, I usually send links to my friends and rant and rave about them/obsess about them for days, weeks, even months. When I forwarded this particular top, some of my peoples didn't think much of it, but they couldn't tell me nothin'.

This top comes in black with white daisies too, but it wasn't as punchy as this bright yellow with it's contrast of white daisies, I couldn't help but drool over the unique floral choice  for this garment.

This is why I always advise to never sleep on the inexpensive stores, you can find the most awesome morsels of style in the most unexpected places, and for such affordable prices.

The top has a mesh back panel that can't be seen in the photo due to it being the same color as my black button-down, you seriously can't tell me this top isn't fire.

I paired the top with a button-down, these cute pair of leggings that have a leatherette detail by the calves, some classic pumps, my big sunnies, and a red lip.

Let's also not forget the amazing $2 yellow nail polish that seriously rocked my socks.

Safari Chic.

Got this oversized top four years ago, it was around the time that oversized tops were becoming super popular. I didn't get it because I wanted to follow a trend, I got it because it's dope and I jumped on the opportunity of having so many oversized options readily available.  It was a great time for us bigger girls, even now this trend is going on and it just makes me so happy.

What's big and slouchy for them, fits me juuuuuuuust right.

This top just so happens to be so big and slouchy that even on me it's huge, which is something I love. The color blocking of this top and the color combo in general are tre chic. I wanted to go safari with this look so I paired the top with my snake print jeans, a taupe bag, my gifted Gucci shades, my light -colored snake print wedged sandals, a speckled necklace, and my wooden bracelets.

Loving this bag that was gifted to me on Christmas by my cousin, Forever21 does it to me every time.
