Starting off this post with some silly pictures of me which I think really reflects who I am – Easy going, fun, never entirely put together/taking life too serious, slightly awkward and somewhat comical.
Of course, there’s the reclusive side of me also – The side that wants to just stay in bed and be left alone and finds expressing emotions all so difficult but its all part of the package and everyday I’m learning to love the parts of me that nobody claps for.
Learning, growing and becoming everyday.
This year has been really eye opening, I’ve learnt so many lessons – one of which is maximizing the little you have and not letting it be a barrier/excuse for not doing what you want.
If I tell you that for the most part, I blog with just my phone. I don’t have a laptop and I can’t make/do lots of the changes I’ll like to make to this site but I still try to keep the blog going with the little I have regardless.
Do you know how much you can do with that “little wardrobe/I don’t have much clothes complain” of yours?
Unconsciously, but I just noticed that somehow the theme of this year especially with outfit posts is really just me maximizing my wardrobe and therefore remixing/ rocking outfits in different ways.
The other day, I started out trying on a denim dress I bought and ended up with three cohesive looks put together with the dress being the center of it all.
Oh, I’m just too dope guys! (You guys don’t tell me that enough so please let me flatter myself abeg)
This is yet another look from my “capsule wardrobe” project. I’ve worn this skirt previously here and also styled the shirt in this post as well.
I wore this to church on Sunday but with my shirt all buttoned up and my nude heels instead (which I still took off and exchanged for my green sandals).
At this point, let me just add that I think I need new (6ft&above gang) friends to go to church with. I hardly wear heels to church because I make my friends look like dwarfs when I do and I genuinely just realize how awkward it must be for them, seeing as they are guys. Lol
My sister bought both this shirt and skirt for me when she travelled to ATL and she just keeps looking at me like Dang, had I known! But what can I say?
If you ain’t got this style thing , you just ain’t got it, forget having all the clothes in the world. :p
Beautiful prints love. I love silly pictures. They show passion and happiness with what you do. It is also all about remixing outfits. No everyday new clothes…hehe

I know exactly how yo feel about maximizing your clothes. This year has been all about that for me too. Let's hope next year we'd have a whole new wardrobe 😀 Love the outfit, love the girl in it!

This post is quiet funny. There is this genuineness i love about you and here love, you are allowed to flatter yourself any day but i need those sun shades plssssssssss
Aww, thank you so much Nkem! There's nothing more flattering than being called "genuine". This is one compliment I'll hold close to my heart. Lool! I'll see if I can find something similar for you
P.S – I sent you an email 😀
GO CASSIE
love the print on that shirt…beautiful you as always
Thank you Baby girl!! 😀
Blogging with a mobile phone can be inconvenient sometimes, so thumbs up to you for doing it consistently!
Love the outfit and how you styled it, the shirt is so pretty 🙂
Funny thing is that I've slowly become used to it although I have times like recently when I had to retype everything again that I just go "ARGH, I can't do this". Lol
Thank you!
Your sister has quite an eye for color. This outfit is so correct. You look like a real Georgia peach (http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Georgia+Peach). As for attending church with guys under six feet, bring back the 70's. Let them wear heals too. Problem solved!
Lool – about the 70's joke.
Oh and I checked out the meaning :$ :$ . Thank you Mr B.
Your wish is my command. Lol
Dopeness dopement dopenant!!!keep up the good work
Honestly I love the look, very retro and somewhat sexy you know; those killer legs of yours. It screams classy all the way. I would like you to try the shirt with a pair of distressed dungarees, sneakers and a hat. P>S> You are too dope!

Now this is one genuine post. Love the prints.
I can relate to blogging with phone, I just got my personal laptop about a week ago. It can be stressful without a laptop.
Maximizing wardrobe ni koko.
Kudos with consistency.
Lemme run off before my comment turns into a blogpost, love your shirt/blouse.

Yes to maximizing what you have. At the moment I only have one pair of jeans and being someone who ordinarily can wear jeans everyday, having just one drives me nuts but I'm doing my best to make it work.
And yes, you are dope Cassie!
Nigerian and Natural
Lol, I have more than one but there's a particular one I like to wear all the time :')
Thank you Jen! You are dope too :*
Oh oh oh and I blog with my phone too! First out of necessity and now, I just find it convenient. But I just got a laptop so let's see how that goes.
Oh! I thought I was the only one blogging with my phone. I totally concur with everything you said in this post. There's no such thing as having no clothes. Maximize your wardrobe! I learnt that from you Cassie and its been working ever since.No matter how much u spend on new clothes,if you don't have style,its just as good as having no clothes. And yes, you are dope! Love ur blog.
