Last Saturday, I went to visit the Govan Stones with my partner, and it was a lovely tour. Today, I’ll be sharing what I wore and keeping this post simple. Later next week, I’ll share my entire tour of the Govan Stones and other places we visited. I’m super excited to share this with you as it is historic and, in my opinion, interesting.
I changed in the car because I knew the weather could get cold and unpredictable—one minute it’s cold, and the next, it’s raining and windy. I wore this pink short outfit to the second location, but since the first location we visited was a church, I wore black cargo pants from Route one instead.
Here’s what I wore:
Pink Shorts: H&M
White/Green Tee: River Island
Sleeveless Jacket: Topshop
Shoes: Zara

Let me give you a little background on this outfit. I wanted to look both simple and stylish, which is why I chose to wear my H&M tank top and Zara baggy jeans. I wanted to wear sneakers, but I was like, 'Hold on, girl. ' Don't you see those girls on Instagram looking all good by stepping up their look with pointed heels or stilettos? I said to myself, baby girl, you are not missing out on an opportunity to wear heels with jeans, which I rarely do, and still feel comfortable and look fabulous.
When I wore the heels, I knew this was the outfit that was going to cause a lot of attention, and with my Ghana-waved braids, I was all set to go.
I went for a private dinner for two, and then we ended up walking the streets of Glasgow before going in October to dance the night away. Well, I didn't dance, but I had a drink and moved my body while enjoying the music.
Let's talk about getting the right tank top that fits you.
In my small world of experience, I would advise you to get your size. If you are a size small, get a size small; that way, it will fit your body just as it is. If you get a size bigger, the styling sense for pairing with baggy jeans won't give as much of a fashion stamp as it would when wearing a tank top in your size.
Jeans are one of the best go-tos for most fashionable ladies. What makes your jeans even more fashionable is your top and sometimes your shoes. In my case, I must say that my JW Pei bag elevated this outfit. At night, the crystals in my bag shone bright like a diamond. This is the best bag for a night out.
My glasses are from Firmoo. I must say their glasses are so durable. I have had these glasses for more than 5 years and they are still one of my best. Use the code: jacob50 for 50% off code.
I got the gold loops from Primark, I think. Here are some options:
Sometimes all we need is a pair of good jeans and a tank top. Please let me know your thoughts on this outfit. Would you wear this on a date?
Not every perfume is suitable for summer; some scents are stronger and can overwhelm, leaving people stressed and offended. Growing up, we had what we called "Aboki perfume" - strong, overpowering scents that filled a room, making it hard to breathe and causing discomfort. If you're in the habit of wearing such, consider lighter options that still smell nice and are more accommodating. Before purchasing, check reviews or do a test. Today, I'll share summer-appropriate perfumes, highly recommended ones like two Zara perfumes:
2. Violent Blossom: This perfume is charmingly lovely and has a simple yet captivating scent. It's sweet, warm, cozy, and a bit floral, with hints of Tonka and cherry. Its long-lasting nature makes it a delightful choice. With a simple design and a uniquely alluring scent, it evolves into an irresistibly good fragrance as it dries down.
3. Zara Woman Fruity Eau de Toilette: This perfume offers a refreshing and fruity scent that is perfect for the warmer months of summer. With its lively and vibrant notes, it brings a sense of energy and brightness to any day. Additionally, its fruity aroma can also be uplifting during the cooler days of spring and add a touch of freshness to the crisp air of winter.
4. Zara Man Silver Eau de Toilette: This fragrance features a blend of citrus and woody notes, making it a versatile option that transitions well between seasons. The citrus top notes provide a refreshing burst ideal for summer, while the woody undertones add warmth and depth that complement the cooler temperatures of winter. In spring, its balanced combination of freshness and richness makes it a timeless choice.
Have you tried any of these perfumes? Let me know in the comment section below.
1. NUDE BOUQUET Eau de Parfum: This fragrance combines vibrant yuzu freshness with a delicate white floral bouquet, featuring notes of cherry, peony, and vanilla. It offers long-lasting wear and is a budget-friendly alternative to Miss Dior Blooming Bouquet. It uplifts your mood, suits all seasons, and strikes a perfect balance between heaviness and lightness. Plus, it comes in an adorable box.

Bodycon dresses are without a doubt one of the most attractive dresses you can wear on any given day, regardless of the occasion. You should have at least one in your closet because they are appropriate for any occasion. When looking for one, I'm sure you'll go for something in basic colours like black or white. Let me introduce you to the blue bodycon ranched dress by Femmeluxe.co.uk. People are correct when they say that "blue is the new black.
If you style it correctly, a blue bodycon could be the best decision you ever make. But before we plunge into the never-ending pool of how to style a bodycon dress, it's vital to note that many women avoid wearing bodycon because they believe it won't flatter them. I understand that the hourglass body shape is perfect for bodycon, but that doesn't mean ladies with other body types shouldn't wear it. Let's defy expectations and wear that damn bodycon dress you've been wanting to wear for so long.
You can give yourself an appearance that is both revitalizing and alluring by wearing a bodycon dress. This will help you stand out among the other people in the room. Furthermore, blue is a versatile colour.
How to Style Blue Bodycon Dresses
Even though I didn't wear a shapewear underneath this dress, I propose one for individuals who aren't comfortable with their flabby belly showing or want extra fittedness in a bodycon dress. It improves your appearance and conceals excess flab.
Dresses that cling to your body can make some people feel self-conscious; if this describes you, try layering up. A cape, a jacket, an oversized shirt, or a coat are all appropriate outerwear options for pairing with a bodycon dress.
Put on some trainers for an effortless and laid-back style. When you want to look classy and formal, though, heels are preferable. Block heels, in particular.
Don't overdo it with the jewellery. Jewellery enhances the beauty of the dress, but wearing too much jewellery with a bodycon dress is a no-no.
If you're unsure about wearing a fitting dress, go for one made of a thick material. The thin, silky material clings to your skin, revealing every curve. If you don't want to show off every curve on your body, you should wear a bodycon dress made of a thick material. This style of dress will cling to your hips and waist while making the other parts of your body appear smoother.
Other options to consider in summer are white dresses, black dresses, and denim shorts.

I would say that spring has sprung and summer is quickly approaching. Floral dresses are known to be worn in the spring and summer. Given that flowers bloom, the grass becomes greener, and birds begin to chirp, spring is the ideal season to wear a floral dress. The time is right to display your newest floral clothing. There are different ways to wear these designs, especially with the diversity of the prints.
Just because you have worn a certain item of clothing once or twice doesn't mean you should grow tired of wearing it. Make every effort to save the planet, even if you have enough money to buy new clothes every day. Today's post is centered on two different ways to wear and style a floral dress. Simple styling like this demonstrates how changing your shoes can alter your entire appearance.
This multi-colored dress features a high-collar dress with ruffle and tie accents. Long sleeves with an elasticized cuff and a V-neck Smocked waist with a lot of elastic. Hems with frills.
How to wear a dress with jeans
If the weather isn't warm enough for you to wear your favourite floral print dress, try layering your outfits, such as with a pair of jeans. Although I like to do it with wide-leg, mid-rise jeans because they add volume to the outfit, This combination appears more interesting and sophisticated. The brown block heels bring the look together and give it a more feminine feel. Pay close attention to the type of jeans you decide to pair with a dress. Make sure to avoid selecting a model of jeans that is too wide; you might end up looking too much because floral print is already a busy print on its own. In any other case, you are free to wear the shoes and type of clothing that you prefer most.
Wearing a floral dress with jeans and slippers
Floral dresses are perfect for beach vacations, but on days when it is not so warm, you can wear jeans and still let your legs enjoy the air by wearing a pair of slippers. This outfit is also ideal for a day spent at home when you want to dress up but remain comfortable. I wore this outfit on my way to Troon Beach, but removed the pants when I got there.
You will agree with me that most spring basics can be used in summer because most times it's all about layering and wearing lighter jackets to protect our bodies from the cold, but basically we start wearing lighter dresses. Spring and summer are like siblings—fun and beautiful—with the exception that one is more warm than the other. So in today's post, we are going to talk about spring and summer basics every woman should own.
I like keeping my outfits simple and basic sometimes. Even though I like long dresses, I will gladly wear jeans and tees during the summer. We are not all the same, which is why being versatile is important, and spring wardrobe sorting can be really important for those who have lots of items. Spring and summer basics are primarily clothing items you can easily wear with style and a good fashion sense. It's also about light and airy clothing, so let's get to it.
Tees
From oversized shirts to crop tops and frill-detailed camis, you are free to express yourself and wear anything you like. I personally encourage people to always keep it decent. I personally think that colourful tees are best for spring and summer because you can wear them without having to cover them. Wondering what options of tees suit spring and summer? Here are some affordable tees for summer. I got this cerise cotton short sleeve jersey T-shirt at H&M. If you prefer neutral colours, there are also tees for you.
Jeans
Jeans are perfect for every weather, but some jeans are thicker than others, so while picking out your jeans, be sure to pick out jeans that are made with light materials, not coated jeans. Jeans that are versatile and only one colour, such as blue, black, grey, or ash and navy blue jeans, These jeans go with lots of tops, blouses, shirts, and tees. There are different types of jeans that I recommend for summer, such as mom jeans, boyfriend jeans, oversize jeans, boot cut jeans, baggy jeans, tapered jeans, and straight leg jeans. I do not recommend skinny jeans in the summer because, after covering your skin all winter, summer is the only season that really allows your skin to breathe. When it gets really hot, some people start sweating on their thighs, which is really uncomfortable and sometimes makes your thigh a little darker, so I recommend you ditch skinny jeans in the summer. I got these grey baggy high-rise jeans from Zara.

Slippers, flip-flops, sandals, and Birkenstock
Taking fashion as easy as you can in spring and summer can do you good, especially if you enjoy wearing fashionable items. Less is more sometimes, and in summer, buy basics that you can easily pair with sandals, flip-flops, and slippers. They give a more relaxed look, which is always best for summer.

Black Sunglasses
I like wearing sunglasses, and I have recommended several pairs that we all need, but this post is all about the basics, so you need a black pair of sunglasses. A black pair of sunglasses does the magic. All you need to do is put them in your handbags, and when the sun is high, just put them on. Also, on days you aren't feeling too good with the world, a pair of sunglasses does the magic. I purchased my tinted rectangular sunglasses from Primark for less than £2, and like they say, no one will know because everything I touch turns golden and luxurious. Sunglasses are also great protection from ultraviolet rays. These classic and stylish rectangular sunglasses are a must-have for the summer.
How I spent my Easter Sunday.
I woke up, said my prayers, cleaned up, and went to church. I struggled to stay awake in church. After church, we wanted to visit a tourist attraction, but the weather wasn't friendly, so we headed back home. But just as our taxi arrived, we changed our minds and decided to go and have lunch at Wong's. The weather fluctuates a lot around here, and sometimes I don't want to go out because a sunny day can turn into a rainy one. Sometimes it gets cold, and the next moment it's a bit warm, and when you think it's okay to take a walk, it starts raining. The weather over here isn't stable, but even at that, I wore my black maxi pleated dress to church.
ABOUT MY ZARA WOMAN NWT FW22 BLACK RUCHED PLEATED DRESS LIMITED EDITION
I just came to the realization that I always choose to wear flowy dresses once the weather begins to transition to spring. They are elegant, comfy, and figure-flattering, and they are quite versatile because they can be worn with almost anything. What's not to love about it?
This Zara dress features an asymmetrical neckline, short sleeves, and a flowy pleated hem in contrast fabric. Black dress made of viscose blend fabric. High collar with one short sleeve. Ruched fabric. Pleated asymmetric hem in tonal fabric. It is made of a polyester, viscose, and elastane blend fabric, making it easy to care for. Zara's limited edition ruched pleated dress is $149.00 with various shipping options. You can get it for free at a store or have it delivered to your door. Your location will determine the additional cost for this final price.
Both the heels and the black pleated maxi dress are new additions to my wardrobe; I picked them up a few weeks ago at Zara. This is the first time I'm wearing them together. When it comes to versatility, many people believe that skirts, jeans, and other separate pieces of clothing are the most versatile. However, this isn't always the case, especially when you have a dress that can be styled in a broad variety of different ways.
My black pleated maxi dress looked so lovely on me, and I loved that I kept the look simple. One of the biggest trends for spring are flowy dresses, floral prints, and colourful dresses. I didn't have a reason to wear this dress until this Easter Sunday; it has definitely been one of my favourite spring dresses. I also love that the dress has pleats on it and is flowy with a free fit. I plan to wear this dress again in the summer when it's very warm, even though I know it's black, and I will also like to pair it with flats.
I searched for my black dress on the Zara website but didn't see it, I guess since it is a limited edition dress is sold out already but here are different sites where you can buy same dress including Ebay.

About my zara slingback tweed geometric heel
I have been avoiding wearing heels a lot, but the truth is, heels are an essential component of a great appearance. There are some dresses that, if paired with heels, would look classier; nonetheless, I like to wear comfortable heels because I also enjoy being minimal. For as long as I can remember, the colour black has been the one I reach for on lazy days when I don't feel like doing much of anything, and it served me well on Easter Sunday.
Similar options of slingback heels
Satin blouses are one of the most timeless wardrobe staples, and I don't wear them very often. It's one thing to wear a satin blouse; it's quite another to style it. When I think of orange, I think of summer, but I wore this outfit in early spring and love how simple it is. Some days, I wake up wanting to keep my outfit as simple as possible, so I just fix myself a simple outfit.
I really like satin shirts for their elegance and ability to elevate a look. I went shopping for some shirts that would go with my everyday look, and I bought two satin shirts in pink and orange. I've been wearing the orange shirt the most, but I also wore the pink satin shirt and blogged about it.
Satin shirts are elegant and stylish. These shirts are appropriate for a wide range of occasions, from formal to casual. Satin elevates your wardrobe. For a lust-worthy look, I intend to pair it with tailored trousers, strappy heels, and layered necklaces.
A satin shirt and jeans look fantastic together! Denim is one of my favorite fashion items, and I enjoy wearing it. I wore this orange long-sleeved satin by h&m shirt with a Zara cuffed straight jeans (similar options: here and here), a black leather laptop bag from Primark, and white Zara slippers.

HOW TO STYLE A GREY DRESS
It is International Women's Day, and I woke up feeling terrific and cheerful. Today is a great day for me, and I am really thrilled about it. Despite the fact that there is still a great deal of work to be done, today is a day to honor and celebrate all of the women who live throughout the world. Even though we ought to be recognized on a daily basis, today is a particularly noteworthy exception to the rule.
There's this happiness that comes with always celebrating Women's Day. Simply put, I look forward to days like this one all the time. Do you have anything exciting planned for the celebration of International Women's Day, or are you just going to stay home and relax?
Yesterday, I had such a fantastic time after work, and today I had a good time before work, so I guess that makes two days in a row. For International Women's Day, I decided to take some pictures to mark the day, and the results are shown below. I am in a really good mood and am cheerful right now, and I just want to tell all the women in the world that you are stunning, powerful, and deserving of anything good and wonderful that comes your way.
This Grey Ribbed Long Sleeve Button Detail Bodycon Midi Dress is from Femmeluxe, and I've been saving it for today since it looks great on me and I really like how it fits. I had my doubts about wearing it with these shoes, but now that I look at them together, I can't say that it's a terrible combination at all. The platform heels were purchased at Zara.
My prayer for women in this day and age is that the light of God will shine on each and every one of us. May you have a wonderful International Women's Day!
