Hey Loves,

I'm so glad it's still cold because there's no way we're going into SS17 without me showing you guys my  RELIGION SERPENT FAUX FUR COAT !

As I  mentioned in my  previous post ONE IN A MILLION I worked at the Birmingham Clothes Show before Christmas and Religion's Boutique was right across from the shop I was working at.

I spotted this coat when we were setting up the boutique and it was  LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT.

I spent my break times admiring the cool snake print and touching the luxury soft faux fur.

On the last day of the Clothes Show I was surprised to see it still hanging on the rail and I just had to have it!


THE LOOK






I've rocked my  RELIGION SERPENT FAUX FUR COAT with many outfits but I was going for a bold textured,street vibe styling the coat with my Prey Of London Leopard Kaftan and PRIMARK LACE TIGHTS.
As you can see from my previous looks I love mixing up prints and I think multiple layers and materials adds character to an outfit.
This is a cool rocky,street look ideal for Winter and the season ahead.

The kaftan can be easily rocked with a light denim jacket for a Spring Look and PREY OF LONDON have an array of printed kaftans with cool graphics in light fabrics perfect for SS17.
Unfortunately mine is out of stock so I've linked to my fave picks below: 








Last but not least I accessorised the outfit with CHUNKY VINTAGE CHAINS and  my Vintage Miss Sixty Boots.
Check out EBAY as they have a selection of Retro Shoes.

 I hope you're feeling my latest vibe and check out the links above and my favourite pieces.

Keep in touch

and stay tuned for my next blog post.

ONE IN A MILLION

ONE IN A MILLION


Hey guys!



As promised in my COLD AS ICE look here's my second post on cool 

T-shirt brand ROYAL TEES LONDON.



I'm a big fan of Aaliyah and had been looking for an Aaliyah tee for ages! So when I randomly came across their website and seen this T-shirt I knew it was meant to be.



Aaliyah is  one of my fave artists and was a big influence on me growing up ( I loved making up dances to 'Are you that Somebody' after Primary School and I still often play the 'I Care 4 U' Album on repeat).



Her music and essence is timeless and I've always loved her street,futuristic style.



Now I think about it my boyish,hip-hop swag kind of lends itself to hers (with an infusion of 80's prints and hippy vibes).




This outfit is a perfect transition from Winter to Spring with dark,moody prints and tones mixed with light fabrics and textures.  



THE LOOK








I love being cool and comfortable so styling my over-sized AALIYAH TEE with my soft viscose crepe PREY OF LONDON GODDESS PANTS was the perfect combo.


I worked for cutting edge London Brand PREY OF LONDON at the Birmingham Clothes Show last December and I'm obsessed with their clothes.

Their street couture vibes are definitely up my street and I love their cool graphics,use of luxury fabrics and bold embellishments.

I'm featuring some of their killer pieces in my upcoming posts so keep your eyes peeled and check out their website below:


Sadly these pants are out of stock BUT I've linked to their GODDESS JUMPSUIT which is just as dope!

To finish off my street style look I wore my trusty 
This jacket gets so many complements and it's a key item in my wardrobe.

Check out ETSY for a similar style.

Thanks for stopping by and stay tuned for my next faux fur look....
;)

Shout out to my bro The Ape Ninja for the sick photography!
Check out his IG for his cool work and inquires.  

PEACE AND LOTS OF LOVE
