The Only Boohoo Dress That I Like – White Bodycon Dress

Oyinkan

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…

Live Art Market Opening Reception + Sunset Rendevous

Oyinkan

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.…

My First Brandon Blackwood Bag – Green ESR

Oyinkan

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…

Monochroming in Blue

Oyinkan

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…

Last Days of Spring – Red Stripe 2 Piece

Oyinkan

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…

One of The Easiest Ways To Get Dressed – Minty Monochrome

Oyinkan

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…

Back To Outdoor Eating – Preppy Pastels

Oyinkan

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…

Oversized Sweater For Spring

Oyinkan

One of the best feelings about trying on clothes is when it actually ends up looking better than expected. I bought this Free People sweater from Lord & Taylor during their close-out sale (yessss girl I caught that epic discount!). I actually expected nothing of it as I thought it would just look like a regular oversized sweater that I could easily spice up with accessories. Little did I know, that it can be worn as a turtle neck, off the shoulder, and even a one-shoulder top. I love convertible…

Wearing Brown For Spring – Brown Faux Leather Dress

Oyinkan

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

Oyinkan

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…
