I love wearing bright colors but neutrals also have a special place in my heart. My love for a brown monochrome look is influenced by how amazing it looks on my skin tone! I initially laid my eyes on this brown off-the-shoulder top in Zara while in Los Angeles and to stop impulse shopping, I decided not to get it. Seeing it again in New York was the only sign I needed to purchase it. The best part is it was on sale in New York (a bonus sign) so…
Many may think I’m crazy for saying wear tweed in the summer as tweed is a fabric usually reserved for cooler seasons because of its very thick fabric. Being the Queen of wearing anything throughout all seasons, I’ll always find a way to make things work. When I laid my eyes on this tweed dress from Zara, I knew I had to have it! It was easy for me to wear this tweed dress during such warm weather because it’s not as thick as the average tweed material and the…
I find that black women are constantly told to humble themselves when partaking in the finer things in life. Whether it’s going on a simple excursion or buying high-end items, black women are normally told not to show up as their full vibrant selves and of course, I disagree with that! Some people tend to put others down when to feel better about themselves. Whether they tell others they don’t belong in certain spaces or they shouldn’t be buying certain things (even if they have the money for it). It’s…
I normally only speak of brands that I love on Befitting Style but its hard for me to talk about a dress that I love without mentioning that I’m not too fond of most of the pieces from the brand. Many love to shop at Boohoo because its affordable and trendy so I tried Boohoo a few years ago. I purchased at least 10 items so that I can properly review the brand’s quality of clothing. Out of the 10 pieces, this white off-the-shoulder peplum sleeve dress is the only…
It’s impossible to discuss any of my festivities without mentioning that I finally got my hands on the Christopher John Rogers x Target collection! When I knew that I was attending the Live Art Market Opening Reception and the Sunset Rendevous Rooftop Series, I knew I had to throw on this immaculate red dress with the Befitting Style Dashing Earrings. Starting the festivities at the Live Art Market Opening Reception was definitely nostalgic. This day reminded me of when I used to intern as I would unwind regularly at art galleries.…
If I bought 4 Brandon Blackwood ESR bags during my first order, is it fair to call this post my first? Let’s just say this is 1 of 4. As I expand my black-owned handbag collection, its only right that I treat myself to a few Brandon Blackwood bags. Take a look at my full review of all the Brandon Blackwood bags that I purchased in the video below. I was introduced to the Brooklyn-based brand on Instagram. It was during the time that there was a bit of outrage…
I’ve been monochroming a lot lately simply because its easy peezy lemon squeezy. I’m also trying to challenge myself to see how much longer I can monochrome. I find that my default is to mix things up so its always fun to do something a little different. For this day of monochrome, I opted for a blue high-waist pant and a printed blue top with matching blue sunnies of course. I’ve loved these pants for years because they fit so great! My only issue is that it gets loose throughout…
It feels like summer is coming so fast! For one of the last few days of spring, I threw on a red stripe 2 piece set from CMEO Collective. I’ve had this piece for about 2 years and I’m so glad that I’m finally able to wear it (as if anything was keeping me from wearing it before LOL). I actually wasn’t too familiar with the brand as it was gifted to me by a colleague who felt that it fits my style much better than hers. Once I learned…
Getting dressed can be quite difficult for some people while it also comes easy to others. When I get dressed I normally throw anything on and if it doesn’t work, I switch out some pieces until it works. While I enjoy mixing things up, I find that wearing monochrome looks is one of the easiest ways to get dressed. When I was going to brunch, I felt a little minty so I threw on a mint top with a pleated mint green skirt. Theres a new restaurant that I love…
I’m so glad this weather has allowed us to be back to outdoor eating. I love outdoor eating so much more than eating indoors. Something about the wind in my hair, the blue skies, and the warm weather excites me and elevates the dining experience! I paired a sleeveless mint green top with a pink skirt that I’ve loved for so many years. I really think I’ve had this skirt since middle school but if you’re not new to Befitting Style then you already know I keep a lot of…
