I started typing this post earlier today but when I decided to return to it after a long fun day with
Mary, I realized that I forgot to save the post somehow.
Disappointed doesn’t even begin to describe how I felt but regardless we move still, so I’m laying in bed now thinking of future plans while trying to put up something real quick
This outfit post is one that’s long overdue as I wore it for the first time to accompany Tuke to a samsung event way before we had the
TBC Connect event but I only just found an avenue to shoot it recently.
I’ve worn it multiple times after that but with variations majorly to my choice of footwear – With flats to the samsung event although it wasn’t the most appropriate outfit for that event as I would find out later, with heels as in the picture above to the
LFDW press event and then later on with sandals to run errands/see a movie.
I just love me a good versatile outfit! And I find that this combination also works pretty fine with the shirt tucked out fully for a more laid back look.
My wardrobe consists of about twenty percent
vintage print shirts because I fell in love with them and haven’t looked back since. I think they are a must have and that’s why I’m giving away one each along sides other goodies to three people in my
christmas giveaway here. Go check it was out!
I picked up this skirt during our last nigerian fashion bloggers yard sale and I’m only just utilizing it. I have a couple of looks planned around this as well because its
capsule wardrobe perfect!

Having a serious Marilyn Monroe moment here. |
Is it beginning to look like christmas over at your end ? Because I’m not so sure I’m getting the christmas feels just yet over here. There’s a lot of knockout (banger) going off presently in the next street as I write this but still not feeling so christmasey yet.
Oh how I long for the christmas of my childhood! Of playing pranks by throwing knockouts into the next compound and trying to hide from the gateman. Of actually buying christmas clothes, making christmas hair and of course christmas money from visitors which just meant returning a little bit richer from the village.
I’ll be spending my christmas on the road, and the rest of december/new year in my home town. Although I feel a bit sad about leaving Lagos now that it seems to be fun, I’m looking forward to having a bit of relief from adulting for a little while.
Can you tell that I struggled more than a bit on finding a title for this post? I decided to just go the easy route as nothing was coming to mind. What other appropriate titles will you suggest for this post?
Oh and least I forget, let me know your thoughts on this look and how you’ll style anything differently!
Perfect. Thats all, lol.

I love the Marilyn Monroe moment photo!
The combination is perfect!
Great legs right? Lol
You look great, the look absolutely works for me. Would love that shirt on a ripped jeans and sneakers/stilettos.
You look so stunning, love all the shades of blue. And the nude shoes tie the whole look together. Braids really look good on you Cassie, merry Christmas! xx
The Marilyn Monroe Picture is wavyyy! I love the combination. I guess I'm not the only one feeling unchrismassy

Merry Christmas Cassie 😊
I love the combo..everything.
Merry Christmas, Cassandra!!
I like this outfit..
Hey Oma, merry christmas babe!
Thank youu :*
Yet another style to steal from you.. Something that had to do with 'Blue' would have also fit as a title lol.. I've actually never spent any Christmas away from Lagos so maybe I envy you.. Merry Christmas baby girl..
Riiighhhtttt??! I never even thought about the blue thing. Chai. Too late now but you've opened my mind to some possibilities for next time.
Aww, you're from Lagos?
You scored a 100% with look Cassie. You can never go wrong wearing one of my two favorite colors. As for a name for this post, that's easy. I would have titled it "Kinda of Blue" in honor of the late great Miles Davis and your style sense. Check out this link and enjoy. //www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbxtYqA6ypM
PS- Merry Christmas and God be with you.
omg, have you seen someone i-steal before? (if there is such a word) That's what I'll soon do to all those vintage shirts of yours. Love!!!
Stunning Cassie!!! Really love that Marilyn Monroe moment!

I'm not even a proud owner of a vintage shirt. It's a must have definitely. Nice one
I do not know why I'm just seeing this! I swear I'm in love like Cassie! You can rock this outfit 10 times and I still wouldn't get over how lovely it looks, talk about mixing 'tom-boyism' with a lil flirting hehehehe. You look hot boo.
