The sun was out... albeit temporarily, so I seized the opportunity to shoot another outfit post, the last of the Tropical Tribe look-book. This time round I opted for neutral tones, instead of the typical hues people thing of when they read or hear the word 'tropical'.
This almost-sold-out skirt from Warehouse, was in my ASOS wish list for quite a while, I was a bit sceptical about how it'd look on me, given that I'm petite and the skirt is quite long. But I bit the bullet and purchased it anyway, a wise decision. I absolutely love this skirt and since purchasing it I've worn it plenty of times to the office, so much so that I've given it a rest - don't want people thinking it's the only skirt that I own.
Anyway, with this look I decided to team it up with my new favourite heels from ASOS (unfortunately, now sold out), a black cold shoulder ribbed top and a cute mini cross body bag from Michael Kors. I finished off the look with these cool round sunglasses from Shein and a smile.

Well well well... never did I imagine picking up such a top from Next. The retailer has done well and nailed the tribal look, making the piece the perfect fit for my current look-book; Tropical Tribe. You'd be forgiven for mistaking the top for a one of piece, from an African designer. But no, it's available on the high street, available to all.
I decided to keep the focus on the top; teaming it with white skinny jeans, a silver clutch bag and barely-there silver heeled sandals. A last minute addition of silver aviator sunglasses completed the look.

I'm so in love with the tropical vibes on the scene right now, especially the designs in Oasis. Not a store that I frequently visit, Oasis has come out with some amazing designs for the Summer season... in floral and tropical prints. I couldn't wait to showcase my recent purchase from their current collection; this amazing tropical print midi dress.. oh it's to die for.
I decided to keep all the focus on the statement dress, teaming it up with strappy knee high heeled sandals, cool black round sunglasses and this funky palm leaf clutch bag from Forever 21, that I wore in a recent outfit post. Perfect weather in London gives the impression that I'm in a tropical environment.

I've always loved a good bargain and Shein is definitely one website I'm able to get my hands on plenty. From crazy heels to funky tops and sexy dresses, the website is a dream come true for not just a blogger like myself, but for anyone who wants to look good and not have to spend a fortune in order to do so.
Now, I must confess, my love for the website has slowly turned into an obsession. Every day I make sure I go to the 'daily new' section to see if there's anything worth spending my hard earned cash on, and as you can guess there's always a gem or two. In actual fact, I've got between 20 and 30 items saved in my wish list and a further eight in my basket (I try not to place a new order until I've received my last one).
My last order included this cool tiger print bomber jacket... which although initially I thought was a little over-sized, I really do love. I decided to team up the jacket with these comfy but stylish bottoms from my favourite store, Zara. I paired the two with simple white heeled sandals, a white staple crop top, a plain clutch bag and limitless attitude.

Wow, this is really bad. I don't like to start my posts off on a negative note, but it has been almost a month since I last posted... yep, not a good look! But in all honesty, one of my best friends just got married and if you know Nigerian weddings they tend to be in two parts (the traditional engagement and then the main ceremony) and very time consuming; so as a bridesmaid I dedicated my time to helping make her special day one to remember (and his of course, lol). So the blog had to be on the back burner for a while. But fear not, I've shot 8 new looks for you to view, and will be shooting a few lookbooks over the next 2 months. in addition to a few styling projects. Anyway, here's the first of my looks... 'Purple Tropic'.
