"I always feel that if you're gonna be uncomfortable and unhappy in something, just because you think it's in or it's chic, I would advise you to be happy rather than well dressed. It's better to be happy."
- Iris Apfel
Recently a friend of mine passed away, before her time and it got me thinking... reflecting... it changed my mindset, on almost everything. Make the most of today, for tomorrow is not promised. Forget about what people think of you and do what makes you happy. If you're not hurting anyone, well then, what's the problem?! Life is for living and enjoying, making the most of each day and doing what you love. And that's how I intend to live the rest of my life; making the most of my blessings and seizing opportunities that will better me and those I hold dear.
What's the point in having amazing clothes hanging in your wardrobe gathering dust, what are you waiting for? If putting on those 5 inch heels and amazing mini skirt make you feel good, wear it whenever you want. If you want to dye your hair purple and are scared of what others think, forget them, be brave and go for it. I've always been told I over-dress and you know what, I love it. I don't want to look like everyone else, I love being the odd one out, having my own style... some people may love it and some may dislike it, but hey, that's me and I'm not sorry.
'Treble' is the fourth of my six outfits from my current look-book; 'Love Denim'. The look is all about being comfortable in my own skin, embracing my curves, my blessings and what others would call my flaws. Showing that I'm not afraid to be me and I don't care what others think; I wear what I want, when I want, to where I want. Today I feel sexy, so I wore this denim wrapped dress from Pretty Little Thing (sold out, alternatives here and here), Longline Denim Jacket from Misspap and this cure blue cross body bag from Shein. I finished off the look with my favourite perspex heeled sandals from Public Desire. Who said double denim was a fashion faux pas? The more denim the better!
