Hi beautiful people,
How are you all doing?
I am doing great, I can not wait for spring. At this stage, I am counting down the remaining days in February. It is really cold right now in Ireland, I don’t think I have experienced a February colder than this one. I hope this means we will get a hot summer.
In relation to fashion blogging, I would like to clarify that fashion is an interpretation or a representation of various things such as your personal style, job title, comfort, exposure or background, culture, religion, mood. It could even be based on how you want to be addressed. I believe fashion is a form of visual identity.
One of my favorite things to do is mix and match. I buy new clothes and mix it with my old clothes which is what I did with today’s look. I randomly walked into Penneys (Primark) and spotted this pink corduroy skirt. I wouldn’t usually buy skirts or trousers in Penneys (I find they don’t suit curvy women) and I don’t ever buy pink clothes. This is actually the only pink clothing in my closet right now! But this color just stood out, I love the fact that it looks pretty and vibrant.
I paired it with casual old tops. The grey top was a dress before I decided to cut it. I love the navy jumper on it, it made me feel sophisticated. Thinking of it now, the jumper could work with the skirt paired with tights on a mild day. The jean shirt top was an experiment and it turned out nice surprisingly!
One of the reasons why I don’ classify myself as a fashion blogger is because I don’t necessarily follow trends. I also don’t want to feel under any sort of pressure to look a certain type of way if it does not truly represent me. This would then take away the fun that blogging really is for me.
I am aware that as a blogger it’s important to show creativity and flexibility but within your strength. I will stick to my regular lifestyle and occasional travel posts. I hope this answers the questions I have been getting, I simply strive to feel comfortable and look beautiful at the same time and it seems to work for me
Let me know which of the tops was your favorite, I would also love to know how you would pair it.
See you soon,
Florence
