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…

Wearing A Skirt As A Top For The Bloom Collection

Oyinkan

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?

Oyinkan

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

Oyinkan

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

Oyinkan

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…
