Spring is when many finally begin opting for brighter hues! I love to see it but I just wish most people didn’t limit their bright attire to warmer seasons. Because I believe in wearing all colors all year round (especially the brights), I decided to throw on a brown Zara faux leather dress with the Befitting Style Dashing Earrings for brunch. When I decided to go to brunch I honestly wanted to wear a gown. I’ve been in the house for so long that I wanted to throw on a more dashing…

Spring is Here – Tweed Suspender Dress
Do you wear tweed in spring or is that just a winter thing? As you may or may not know, I wear almost everything all year round. Although I have many posts thats pertains to seasons, my body knows no seasons so I just throw clothes on and go. I briefly wore this tweed suspender dress last year (mid-fall) but since I didn’t give it as much love as it deserves, its only right that I wear it again! The suspenders are a bit too long for me so I…
Wearing A Skirt As A Top For The Bloom Collection
I wore this pink floral skirt sometime around my birthday and I’ve always been drawn to it because of my love for tulle. While seeking for items to wear for the Befitting Style Bloom collection, I immediately thought to myself what if I wore the floral skirt as a top? It worked! The tulle provided just the right amount of volume that I wanted right over my shoulders. I’m not new to this. I’m true to this. I’ve previously worn a skirt as a top during fashion week 4 years ago… back when fashion…
Are Cape Dresses Still A Thing?
Are cape dresses still a thing? Cape dresses were all the rage a few years ago and now it seems like its just a part of history. It’s previous popularity came at no surprise as cape dresses fit a variety of body types. While some people only wear trending styles while they’re trending, I’m quite the opposite. I tend to wait till a trend dies down before I give it a try and I only consider styles that I love. With that being said, I’ve always loved cape dresses. Because…

A Crochet Bikini Turned Crop Top
Does this count as a crop top? I began crocheting this pink bikini top before spring and I learned that bikinis should be made from softer yarns. The yarn was so thick that I was discouraged to finish the bikini. I messed up but like many of my DIY projects, there’s always a lesson learned from it. Because I love the style of this bikini, I’ll definitely recreate it with the proper yarn so in the meantime, I’m wearing this bikini as a regular top (although it’s technically not finished).…
It’s Still Bikini Season
Yes I know its December and its cold in many places but I just wanted to share this bikini that I finally got the chance to wear. I caught an epic Matte Swim sale last year and didn’t get the chance to wear the bikini until this fall. It was absolutely worth the wait! Pairing this bikini with the Befitting Style Dashing Earring was a no-brainer. I’ve always loved how neutral tones like light brown accent different shades of orange.. especially burnt orange. I’ve also preferred wearing tassel earrings with swimwear. These…
The More Texture The Better
I just realized that I’d love to invest (a cool way for me to say buy LOL) in more clothes that feature bold textures. This orange dress is a simple halter top mini dress and I fell in love with it simply because of it’s texture. I paired this Zara dress with Tory Burch Sandals and the Dashing Earrings from the Befitting Style Holiday Collection. The Holiday Collection is filled with so much texture and really makes me proud of the woman I’m becoming. It was actually hard to decide which earring pairs…
My 3 Step Skincare Routine
My skincare routine is only 3 steps. I stayed away from sharing my skin care routine for so long because it’s pretty basic. I don’t do much and when it comes to skin, I believe less is more. Sharing my skincare routine has become necessary as I previously shared that I tried Fenty Skin. Now that I no longer use Fenty Skin, I feel inclined to share what works for me. Take a peak at the video below to watch me discuss why I no longer use Fenty Skin. Skin…
New Year – Elevated Me
Its my birthday! New Year, elevated me. Not new me. Just an enhanced version of myself. I am now 29 years old on the 29th of October. I’ve been looking forward to saying that for quite some years now. 29 is a pivotal year for me as I finally launched a shop for Befitting Style! Its something I’ve wanted to do for soooo long and I’m so glad that I finally began walking in my purpose. My first collection launched today and its so befitting that I name it O Ti…
