Simply Navy

This time of year is absolutely wonderful for scenic, panoramic shots. Literally every bloggers dream. with the changing of the leaves visibility of different textures. It is a canvas that can be captured in so many ways.
 

 
With mother nature taking her own approach to the season It is only fair that my fashion should mimic her weather pattern. Ultimately it is the best time for boots, lots and lots of layering.
 
I recently acquired this faux leather jacket. In a stunning navy blue (in some angles your would think it is black) its just the right piece for light washed or faded coloured skinny jeans for this outfit I choose grey with dark toned (black) biker boots. Paired with a vibrant cardigan not only as layering piece but also a bit of warmth (dual purpose) over a basic white top offers the perfect 3 tier contrast. Minimal chic accessories off the right combination for a wonderful day.

School Crush


I am not one to usually flock the season trends I am more of a comfort kinda gyal. But there are usually a few bits and bobs that tickle my fancy. This season of course is by no means any different.

As the days have gotten shorter and the nights are a little, ok, ALOT cooler it only felt right to embrace my newly found tatarn skirt. I am pretty sure this will be a staple piece in the cooler months. Weather permitting it will be well loved.





 
With such a bold pattern it is easy to gravitate to a neutral colour it is easy to gravitate to a neutral coloured top. I felt the need to take one stable colour and that as the focal point. Accessorised with silver and white as highlight to the dark palette; creates a fabulous combination that is much loved.

Hey Yo Shortie!


I feel as if I am in a crowded room and should explain myself- primarily my reason for being so absent. “Hi my name is Dye and ...................... life took over”. That’s a fair explanation right. Now that has been sorted. With Mother Nature in absolute turmoil who knows what  wear yet alone being fashionable.

Great inspiration can be pooled from little the things. This outfit was the brainchild of my .99 cents shorts. On a good fall day shorts, tights and a blazer is my all time favourite combination with my much-loved booties perfection at its best. What can I say the pieces just fit - bouncing back from the sniffles my latest fine for the season a woolly blazer offered the perfect comfort for the fluctuating temperatures.

Frock it!


Oh, yes “Frock” a very old English expression for a dress. Not often used today but I have heard it used callocally in the Caribbean or by older ladies of a different era. With a theatre performance to attend thought I ought to get a little dressed-up.

You can never go wrong with a dress, colour blocked is an added bounce for a stylish look that is effortless. Adding a few bits and bobs very minimal (extremely comfy black heeled saddles, bracelet, watch, pearl knobs).................... voila all frocked up.

Spin that record


Today was a running errands kind of day. With multiple activities lined up thought it best to be near the ground and as comfy as I could be.

One can never go wrong with comfortable flats. These babies are supper comfy as they are padded. Worn with basic jeans, tee, a jumper (sweater) doubling as an accent piece and a bit of warmth. I am not one for long necklaces but I got this record from Asos ages ago and I absolutely love it. All paired together effortless and truly comfy to face the day.

The Come Back




With an invite to a talent event I was rather smitten to explore my wardrobe for that fitting piece. There are a number of trends floating around at the moment; although I am not one to jump on the band wagon I am most excited about the black and white combo. With endless options at hand do I go with patterns or solids......hmmm which one?

In the end my skirt was my guiding light to the rest of the outfit. It’s one of those pieces that are effortless chic and also complements my figure perfectly. With a black top and a white blazer it adds a stunning appeal. Accessorising with pops of colour: heels, arm candy, hair bow and clutch; creating an absolute stunning outfit.
