When it comes to sunglasses, they are more than just an accessory to me—they're a statement, a vibe, and, let's face it, a necessity. If I told you how many pairs I left behind in Ukraine, you'd probably think I ran to a sunglasses boutique. Over 100 pairs. Seriously. However, an unexpected turn in my life forced me to make difficult decisions. Yet, even now, sunglasses remain a key part of my style, whether it's the blazing summer sun or the icy brilliance of winter.

Yes, I wear sunglasses in winter too. Think about it—snow reflects sunlight like crazy, and those bright, clear days can be harsh on your eyes. A stylish pair of sunglasses doesn't just shield your eyes; it elevates your whole look.



Speaking of excellent pairs, let's talk about Dima sunglasses . I'm smitten. The quality, the designs, the way they sit on your face—it's like they were made for me. I had one of those “feeling myself” moments when I first wore them, posing left and right while my partner captured every angle. On a side note, his photography skills have significantly improved.

Are you planning anything special for Christmas this year? Honestly, I’m not sure what this Christmas will look like for me, but one thing’s for sure—if there’s a chance to attend any festive events, I will be showing up looking my best!

I recently dug out this stunning blackless dress from Uoozee that I’ve had in my closet for a while. When I finally wore it, the fabulous flare sleeves were the perfect fit for me. The dress is a solid color, high-neck, backless mini, and I like it! Since it's already freezing, I paired it with pantyhose, and honestly, it didn’t look bad at all! A little layering hack for winter parties, you know?

Speaking of parties, the holiday season is officially upon us, which means it’s time to plan those Christmas and New Year looks! I’ve got a bunch of holiday outfits lined up that I can't wait to share, but for now, let’s talk about the top trends this season. If you haven’t picked out your outfit for the office party, family gathering, or just a fun night out, there’s still time! Trust me, you don’t have to go overboard. Sometimes the best outfits are the ones you already own.Here’s a little secret: I’m not big on over-planning my outfits. I usually just visualize something cute in my head, do a quick ironing session if needed, hang it up, and I’m good to go. Trying on too many outfits just leaves me tired and confused, and I end up picking the wrong one anyway—can anyone relate?

But seriously, finding the perfect Christmas outfit is all about striking that balance. You want to look unique and original but also honor those classic traditions (yes, I’m talking about wearing something red! . You really don’t need to splurge to look fabulous—chances are, you’ve already got some great pieces in your closet. Just add a little sparkle here and there, maybe a shimmery bag or glittery shoes, and you’re all set to dazzle!

So, go ahead, grab that dress you’ve been saving, throw on a touch of glitter, add some fun accessories, and make that outfit shine. Oh, and don’t forget a cozy pair of hose—it’s giving me all the holiday vibes!

Now tell me, any fun Christmas plans on the horizon? Or have you picked out your perfect holiday look yet? Let’s chat in the comments!





You all know that when I share a product I genuinely love and that’s worth the hype, I go all out. I'm beyond thrilled and proud to introduce this gem to you: the Deux Float Portable Laptop Monitor.

I've always wanted an extended laptop screen, and since getting the Deux Float, my productivity has genuinely hit a new level. This product is perfect if you’re looking to boost productivity or make work more enjoyable. I can multitask so effortlessly, and on days when I want to make work more fun, I can stream something on one screen while working on the other. It's honestly a game changer.

What makes it so special? For starters, it has a super-responsive 1080p touchscreen, so you don’t even need a mouse to interact with it. It’s a spacious 15.6-inch display that pairs perfectly with 15 to 16-inch laptops.

Setting it up couldn’t be easier. The manual is clear and even includes photos, so you know you’re doing it right. I was excited to try it out with everything I own—it works with my Chromebook, my laptop, and even my phone! Just plug in the cable, and it connects instantly, no extra setup needed.

The Duex Float also has a built-in kickstand, which is amazing for using it on its own without attaching it to the laptop. The kickstand works with any laptop size, but if you prefer the magnetic attachment, they include four magnets for that option too.



I love how portable it is. Its compact, foldable design makes it easy to carry around. There’s also an option to adjust the screen’s color to protect your eyes during long workdays or late nights. The dual-hinge system is incredibly flexible, offering three modes: dual-screen, presentation, and desktop mode. So you can set it up in whatever way suits your productivity needs. As an independent display, it’s perfect for gaming or working with documents, and you can flip the screen around to easily share content with someone in front of you—great for work presentations or even just casual viewing.

One awesome feature is that the screen rotates both ways. You can easily show someone something on the screen without having to move your whole setup, making it perfect for collaborative work. Another person can use the Duex screen while you’re working on your laptop screen, which makes it super practical.

It’s also compatible with Apple Stage Manager for iPad OS! Instead of mirroring content onto a smaller 4:3 view, iPads with M-series processors can display active apps across the spacious 15.6-inch, 16:9 screen. I tested it out with an iPhone 15 Pro Max, and it worked flawlessly. Plus, it’s also compatible with Android devices, so it’s got great flexibility.

When I unboxed the Duex Float, I recorded it because I wanted to capture just how unique and practical the design is. I’ll be sharing my review on YouTube and Instagram reels soon so you can get a closer look.

Here’s what comes with the Duex Float:
  • USB Type-C cable with USB-A to USB-C adapter
  • HDMI cable
  • Magnetic plates
  • Adhesive stickers

And some standout features:

  • Stacked design
  • Two USB-C ports with pass-through charging
  • One mini HDMI port
  • Built-in kickstand
  • Three different viewing modes

Product Specifications:

  • SKU: 101-1011P01
  • Screen Size: 15.6-inch touchscreen
  • Resolution: 1920 x 1080 pixels
  • Refresh Rate: 60 Hz
  • Brightness: 250 nits (adjustable)
  • Dimensions: 14.2" x 9.1" x 0.87"

For me, the Duex Float is a total winner, especially for anyone needing a larger screen on the go without much desk space. The HDMI and USB-C ports make it simple to connect to almost anything, and the pass-through charging is a huge plus! Its aluminum alloy frame is both durable and lightweight, which I really appreciate. The stand and monitor are sturdy enough that I don’t worry about it tipping over.

Now, it’s a bit heavier than my laptop, but I can still throw it into my bag for a quick cafe visit and travel with it. But it folds up perfectly, with the screen facing inward for protection. This screen has truly improved my remote work setup, saving me from neck strain and making my workflow smoother. And honestly, it’s making me look forward to work even more—it’s just fun to use!

If you haven’t tried the Duex yet, I highly recommend giving it a shot. I’m sure you won’t regret adding it to your office setup. Plus, they’re offering a discount code: HAPPY20 for 20% off. This product’s durability is unmatched, and it opens and closes with zero noise. Everything about it is high quality.





If you've read my travel post to Dumbarton Castle, you've probably seen what I looked like walking up the long stairs while enduring the rain. I wore this Just Pray Boho Rainbow Flowers Butterfly Long Sleeve Shirt.I like to wear casual shirts that are free and breathable yet cozy and that have unique designs. The material feels comfortable on the skin. The materials used to make the shirts are soft.

Do you recall my previous post where I wore a grey sweatshirt? It is from BoldOversize. The brand has this retro style with a bit of a contemporary twist. If you check out the website, you will see lots of cool vintage American fashion clothing that features old school cars and retro music, etc.

Top Christmas Sweatshirts for 2024: Cozy Styles to Celebrate the Holidays


Good morning, beautiful people. I would like to kindly remind you that natural oils and creams are more beneficial for your skin. I started using skin oils at a very young age. My grandma always applied them on cold mornings; she would massage the oils into our skin, and we all looked so fresh.

During cold winter mornings, I like to take hot showers before applying either coconut oil or shea butter because they help me maintain a radiant glow while also hydrating and revitalizing my skin.

Why Your Skin Will Love the Ultra Rich Anti-Ageing Face Cream

If you love natural, long-lasting skincare products like I do, let me introduce you to—the Ultra Rich Anti-Ageing Face Cream, Night and Day Formula. Handmade in Scotland, this cream is packed with natural ingredients.

Ultra-Rich Anti-Aging Cream for Improved Skin Hydration and Radiance

Here’s what makes it special:

1. Frankincense for Wrinkles

This cream’s secret weapon is frankincense, a natural ingredient that’s fantastic for reducing the appearance of wrinkles. For centuries, people have used frankincense for its skin-smoothing and anti-inflammatory properties. If you’re looking to fade age spots and smooth out fine lines, frankincense is a must-have in your skincare routine.

Ultra-Rich Anti-Aging Cream for Improved Skin Hydration and Radiance

2. Intense, Long-Lasting Hydration

The blend of natural ingredients in this cream is an ideal solution for hydration.
  • Beeswax locks in moisture, preventing dry, flaky skin.
  • Avocado butter provides natural sun protection while deeply nourishing your skin.
  • Virgin Organic Shea Butter ensures your skin stays plump and moisturized around the clock. This rich formula works wonders day and night, leaving your skin feeling smooth, soft, and rejuvenated.
There’s something so special about using handmade skincare. The love and care that go into each jar of this cream are evident the moment you apply it. Made in Scotland, it blends nature and science perfectly, using no harsh chemicals or animal testing. Plus, the eco-friendly packaging means you’re caring for the planet while treating your skin.



How to Get the Best Results with the Ultra Rich Anti-Ageing Face Cream

This cream is easy to incorporate into your routine, whether you use it in the morning to start your day or as part of your nighttime routine. For the best results, I recommend applying it after your toner and serum for a dewy, glowing complexion that lasts all day. At night, allow the deeply hydrating ingredients to do their work while you sleep, resulting in softer, more radiant skin when you wake up.


Why Shea Butter is My Skincare Staple

You are all aware that I am an avid advocate for shea butter, and this cream contains the highest quality version: Virgin Organic Shea Butter. It locks in moisture like no other, leaving my skin feeling soft and plump. Combined with frankincense, it’s been giving my skin a youthful glow that I’m obsessed with.
Eco-Friendly Beauty That’s Good for You—and the Planet

One of the reasons I love this cream (besides how amazing it makes my skin look) is the eco-friendly packaging. The brand strives to make their products beneficial for both your skin and the environment. This brand meets all the criteria for sustainable beauty!


I love fall, though not as much as I love summer. However, there's something special about those golden-yellow leaves falling from the trees that brings me joy, along with a bit of sadness as it reminds me that winter is just around the corner. Maybe it’s just me, but fall is a beautiful season in its own right.

While I don't decorate my home for fall, I definitely dress for it. Fall is all about cozy vibes, and I’m excited to share a simple yet stylish way to wear a sweatshirt this season while staying both warm and fashionable.






Fall Fashion Staples: Sweatshirts and Beyond

When it comes to fall outfit ideas, fashion-forward ladies know that trends change. What was hot last year might be a no-go this season, but there’s one fall fashion trend that never goes out of style: the sweatshirt. It’s a true fall wardrobe essential, and no matter how trends shift, a cozy sweatshirt remains a staple.




Personally, I’ve always wanted a grey sweatshirt because it’s just as versatile as the classic black. Whether you’re going for a casual day out or layering for those chillier fall evenings, sweatshirts are perfect. In winter, we may cover them with heavy coats or jackets, but in fall, a sweatshirt alone can be enough for warmth, especially in milder regions.

The perfect fall outfit is all about being both comfortable and stylish. That’s why I’m loving this oversized Gingerbread Bakery Christmas Sweatshirt—it's bold, cozy, and perfect for autumn.







How to Dress for Fall: Key Pieces for Layering

Fall is officially the season for sweater weather, and layering outfits is a must. Whether you’re pulling on cozy knits, neutral tones, plaid shirts, or fall jackets, there are certain fall wardrobe essentials that complete the look. Here are my top picks:

1. Sweatshirts: For that cozy fall vibe, go for oversized sweatshirts. I’m currently rocking the bold, oversized Gingerbread Bakery Sweatshirt, which is perfect for keeping me warm during my autumn adventures.

2. Rain Boots: I can't stress enough how important rain boots are—especially in Glasgow, where it rains all year round! Rain boots are an absolute fall must-have, and they’re essential for staying dry while still looking stylish in this unpredictable weather. I got mine from Tk maxx.

3. Cowboy Hat: Yes, you heard me right—a cowboy hat! It may seem unexpected, but it adds a cool, laid-back element to your fall look while offering some protection from the wind.

4. Light Layers: I’m the queen of layering, though you’d never guess how much I’ve got on! I always wear a shirt or polo under my sweatshirt to keep warm. Layering light garments underneath is key to staying comfortable without looking bulky.

5. Scarves: Scarves are another essential for fall. Not only do they add to your outfit, but they’re also great for keeping your neck warm as the temperatures drop.

This eyeglass is beautiful, durable, and simple for everyday wear. It was sent by Firmoo Optical, the popular glasses brand. I appreciate the versatility in complementing any outfit. Clear frames, also known as transparent frames, are a fashion trend at the moment. I like that they fit any face shape and give a subtle appearance. This glass is affordable, and you can check it out here.






If I told you how angry I was while taking these photos, you’d probably laugh. My partner was putting in his absolute best effort, trying to capture good shots, but I was so focused on the pictures not turning out how I imagined. I wanted to look chic, but somehow, I ended up looking more sexy, which was not the plan at all!

At one point, I honestly felt like I had no photos that I could post, but he kept encouraging me the whole time. When we got home and relaxed, I ended up finding plenty of photos I liked. He looked at me and said, “If only you had let me take more shots and stopped frowning, I could’ve taken even better ones.” If you're a fashion blogger, you know the frustration of photos not coming out as planned. It can be draining because you want to look beautiful and have your outfit appear stylish, just like it does in real life... lol.

Halfway through the shoot, I realized that my shoe choice wasn’t the best, but honestly, it was still an okay option for the outfit.

So, how did this look come together? Well, I wanted something different to pair with my black stretchy slim round neck knit vest from Prepreworks. I didn’t want to go with pants, which would have been a more expected styling. I just wanted something unique.

What I love about the top is that it’s airy and slim-fitting. The material is lovely and has a great texture, not the usual fabric you see. Can you guess what I like most about the skirt? Definitely the length and the vintage prints! I’m a sucker for vintage prints because they always stand out in such a cool way. I paired the two pieces with my blue heels from River Island to finish the look.

What are you up to today? Got any weekend plans? I’m staying home all day, and I’m so happy about it because I’m watching Selling Sunset on Netflix!



Uoozee Two-Piece Set Review: Stylish and Modest Outfit Ideas for Church

Discover the perfect church outfit with our Uoozee Two-Piece Set review. Explore stylish and modest options, and get tips on what to wear and avoid for church.

Hi everyone! Happy Sunday. I want to start by saying a big thank you to everyone who has been commenting on my blog, sharing my posts, and offering suggestions. I truly appreciate your input. Today is Sunday, and it's another day to shine in my world because I go to church every Sunday and sometimes attend weekly activities. So, welcome to another blog post about what I wore to church.

In a previous post where I showcased my church attire, I received numerous comments about how people dress for church, and I must say, you're all correct. I'm not here to judge, but I believe we all know what is appropriate to wear to church. Last week, some outfits caught my attention, but one really stood out because the person wore really tight trousers. The pant line was so pronounced, and she was standing in the middle row.

 
Try to avoid wearing anything see-through or too short, like above the knee. It's probably a good idea to skip outfits that might seem disrespectful in a place like church. Clothing like low-cut or backless dresses, tank tops, or anything that shows your stomach or goes above your knee aren’t the best choices for church. You can still look cute and stylish while keeping it modest!

The church is a place for everyone to worship, but it is also a place where we should respect and honor God in the right way. It made me wonder why some people feel so comfortable wearing clothing that exposes their sensitive body parts to church. I guess I might never know.

What to wear to church: Uoozee Two Piece Set Women Batwing Sleeve Top and Flare Pant Review 
Now, I’m always excited to share my outfit with you all, and today I’m featuring another classy look by Uoozee Fashion. This two-piece batwing sleeve set is perfect for work and formal events. It fits perfectly, and I love the length of the flare pants. I styled this outfit in two different ways—flowing or tucked in. Did I mention the quality of the material is great? I'm not sure I would usually go for this style, but I’m really happy with the choice.

Initially, I wanted to wear black heels, but I changed my mind and went with these turquoise blue pumps by River Island. You can agree with me that it was the perfect choice.

Stylish and Modest Church Outfit Ideas: What to Wear to Church and What to Avoid


There are a few trends that I’m really investing in this summer, like cowboy hats, fitted tops, matching sets, and classy dresses, but I especially love this gorgeous shade of lime green high-waist pants and loose off-the-shoulder blouse! 💚 It’s such a fun, vibrant color. Lime green was not a color I thought would match me, but I might be wrong, because this two-piece from Uoozee.com is proving otherwise.

Lime green is not the easiest to pull off, in my opinion, and I didn't expect the camel-colored cowboy hat to match so well. I was not sure about the shoe color, so I went online to browse for lime green outfit ideas, and that's how I went with white.

With its lightweight polyester fabric, this two-piece set is the perfect choice for a summer vacation on the beach and gatherings. There’s so many ways you can style this set depending on the vibe or situation, but I really wanted to play safe, so I paired the set with my white cover heels I bought from Temu.

What do you think about my lime green outfit?



One hat style that's totally trending lately is the cowboy hat! When I wore this hat, all I could think of was Beyoncé’s “This Ain’t Texas” song. I caught the cowboy bug and now I really want a pair of cowboy boots! I’ve always loved the cowboy style, and starting with a hat was a perfect first step.

It’s been ages since I wore denim on denim, and what better way to spend my day off than in skinny jeans by the seaside? 


Denim on denim can have such a fun twist, especially when you’re rocking it by the seaside. The Western look can be tailored to your personal style. There are no rules to getting it right. Western-inspired wardrobes are super comfortable and suit everyone.

If you're curious about how to rock a cowboy hat, you've come to the right place. I’ve been obsessed with this new trend, and there's no sign of it slowing down.



Cowboy fashion is all about comfort and versatility, and the best part is there are no strict rules. Whether you go for a full-on fringe look or just a hint of Western charm, you’re sure to make a stylish statement. So grab your cowboy hat, maybe those boots, and embrace the trend with confidence!

It does not matter if you’re a hardcore fan of Western style or just want to add some personality to your wardrobe, mastering the art of wearing a cowboy hat can elevate your fashion game. When Queen Bee herself, Beyoncé, wears it, you know it’s gotta be good. 

The classic cowboy look has been a staple in American fashion for over a century.


Our guide explains how to style a black dress with gold-tone buttons for a sophisticated church outfit.

My parcel arrived on Saturday, and when I opened it, I was so happy. I have shopped for different items in the Uoozee online store, and they all looked good and caused a stare. 

When I saw the dress, I wasn’t sure about the fit. I always want my dresses to look extremely flattering. This black loose sleeveless solid-color split-side shawl collar maxi dress turned out to be more stunning than I expected. The shawl collar that flows to the back is something I like; it adds a little fun flare to the dress. I added red lipstick, and it did the trick. This dress is absolutely lovely. Guess how much it cost? I am waiting...

Well, you were wrong. It was only £42.57, but now it is £29.04. I know, right? I love a good dress at an affordable price.

I love when I see people pair both colors together because it has a rich, or, I would say, a luxurious, touch attached to it, and I absolutely know that I look so good in this dress.

 If you have ever seen or used a Jw Pei bag, you will comprehend the hype. I personally adore their bags and would like to own more bags from the brand.

I have decided to add more glamour and glitz to my wardrobe. I discovered this when I purchased a silver heel with glitz, and I adored it. When I styled it with my black abacus crystal bag, I thought to myself, "This woman is fierce, and she needs to add more silver glitter and crystals to her wardrobe." The crystals bring your whole outfit to life and add a touch of glamour and girly flair.

Have you ever gotten dressed up for a night out and decided to show off your crystal bag under the lights? It's absolutely stunning, and so today I'll be sharing the best crystal bags and jwpei bags in general for a night out.

Exploring JW Pei Crystal Purses and the Silver Trend

Has anyone else noticed that people are really into silver lately? My friends and I all had a touch of silver in our outfits for graduation, and it wasn't even planned. I also noticed a lot of other people wearing silver jewelry and accessories. I have used this bag twice, and it has been nothing but stunning and elegant. The rhinestones are on fire.


If you are looking for lovely bag, then consider adding a crystal purse to your collection to instantly upgrade it, whether it's for a formal gathering or an exciting night out. This sparkling purse may give a sophisticated touch to even the most basic outfit or add even more sparkle to one that already exudes glitz.

JW Pei purses are great since they are trendy and not boring, which is why they are so popular among the fashion elite. They pretty much offer any color imaginable, so it doesn't matter what you prefer.

ABACUS ARTIFICIAL CRYSTAL MINI TOP HANDLE BAG - BLACK

JW Pei bags are the understated purses you have seen all over Vogue and on celebs but most likely not even known about since there is no brand branding visible. The best part is that They are still rather fashionable and forward, but also rather reasonably priced.

You may have seen the bags that Gigi, Emily Ratajkowski, Megan Fox, and others are carrying. If you're searching for a fashionable, affordable, and eco-friendly bag, read on for a complete JW Pei review.

These stunning items are all available for under $100, and there are many more on sale!

My bag, the JW PEI Abacus Artificial Crystal Mini Top Handle, elevates the bow-shaped bag trend to new heights with its one-of-a-kind ring-handle detail.



I would like to commend the designers of this bag for one thing in particular. Most items with stones and studs that I own start to fall off after a while, and some even fall off almost immediately after I use them for the first time. However, this JW Pei crystal mini bag is incredibly durable. Not a single crystal has fallen off, even though I have handled it like I would any other bag I own. I will definitely be shopping from this brand more in the future because of its durability.


I'm going to tell you a true story. I went to Aberdeen for a friend's graduation and I wore my bag. At the end of our trip, a friend of mine was holding my bag and forgot to drop it off. She traveled with it to another country, but then sent it back to me when we both realized she had it. She sent it back, and I got it on Friday in a well-packaged box. My bag is back home now!

Let me know what you think about my bag.
