Any one who has ever been a model would understand this look. By the way, I was once and I loved every moment of those days.
I know your next question will be why don’t you any more? My answer is always and hasn’t changed that in life, there is time for everything. For now, it is not time for modelling, may be in the future. I do pretend as if I am modelling in photo shoots though…lol.
On a model’s off duty day, all they want to do is relax and dress down with little or no make up on. The only thing they have time to do is to run errands and then prepare for their next “modelling gig” in whatever city they have to go to.
That is not to say models don’t glam up on their days off, they do indeed and they do it well too.
This look is also a perfect one for a casual Friday.
Outfit of the Day!
For my look today, I wanted a look that is laid back but perfect for running around so I paired an ankle length dark wash denim with a navy sweat shirt with gold detail on the sleeves. To finish my look, I wore a striped summer flats with a pair of pantyhose to keep my feet warm, carried an over sized tote to hold my many things, a blanket scarf to keep me nice and warm and some glasses for some “swag”.
As far as the colour mix for this look goes, I played around red and blue and did a little contrast by mixing the print on the scarf with the stripes on the shoes.
Fashion TIP today!
I am a lover of mixing high street and high end together, it works for me that way. With this look however, everything I wore in this post are from the high street and I love them. I spotted that while writing this post. This goes to show that you do not have to spend much to look much. It is how you wear what you wear that matters.
Allow me share my little secret with you. I was wearing a skin tone tight/pantyhose under my denim. It is from a brand called PENDEZA. They are specialized in making tights for people of colour.ย

Wow! Good to know you were a model. I kinda drew that conclusion when I saw your post post about meeting Funmi. You guys looked like a Nigerian version of Tyra and Naomi in the pics. You are a gorgeous woman and I love your relaxed look.
Good to have a sister who can truly let you feel special. Thank you Sade for all your kind comments always. I do enjoy hearing from you. And yes, I will tell Fumi.
Have a great weekend.

Love your jeans and the scarf! So beautiful โฅ
Thank you Dee. You are a darling.

I love that chunky blanket scarf. It looks so warm and cozy. The coloring is pretty as well. As for that tote/bag, I totally remember it. It also came in black. Isn’t it great when you take care of your pieces? I love to put some items away for a few years and then bring them back out once everyone has tossed there’s. Looking casual & cute girlie.

You are so right about that bag. They came in teal blue too. I guess they sold so much they kept making it. I kept this one away and decided to bring it out now that is is over trending…haha.
Cheers Love.
