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…

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…

Tan Bathing Suit

I wish I can wear a bathing suit or a bikini every day. They’re so comfortable and for some reason, immediately makes me feel super relaxed. I love this tan bathing suit so much that it wasn’t until it shipped to my home that I realized that its the exact same bathing suit I wore for my birthday last year. One of my good friends, Laneesha Ford is the founder of Cali Swim. When she decided to name a bathing suit after me, I knew I had to have it. So I…

Is Crushed Velvet Still A Thing?

It feels like every girl has a mini velvet dress in her closet. At one point, velvet dresses were quite the trend but things have changed a bit. Although it’s no longer trending, it’s hard to find a girl without a velvet piece that she loves hanging up in her room. When I bought this dress, I knew it would be perfect for a night out. As the world is still in a pandemic, I’m currently not partaking in night outings but its definitely great for a cute evening. Is…

Can We Still Wear Bandeaus + Short Skirts?

Happy September! At this point, many are yearning for jackets, blazers, sweaters and beyond! I’m still loving a good 2 piece set (or creating one by monochroming). Some may wonder if we can still wear bandeaus and short skirts and the answer is yes! It’s not cold yet. Although our air conditioning is not at an all-time high anymore, the weather is at such a perfect temperature that whether we go for a bandeau or a long-sleeved top, the body still feels just right. I paired an orange skirt with…
