FOR A LAZY DAY.


There was a time in my life that the only brown thing i had in my closet was a Louis Vuitton bag. Now I bought so many brown pieces its time i put a stop to it. I was checking out some autumn trends  and noticed brown was taking centre stage in shows like Prada and  Stella MCartney.






I chose this light brown dress.  If your are new to this trend i would advise you to go for lighter colour. You can  also try  something with patterns. The best thing about this dress is that is simple,comfy and you can slip it on.It is the best dress for a lazy day.If you put on some black palms, gold belt and blazer you are ready for work. It's very  easy to accessorize. I wore it with brown boots but wedges would do. I wore a bronze and brown charm bracelet. The glasses add some retro feeling to the look and they look pretty cool.       
   
I hope you enjoyed this post. See you next time. I apologize for the delay my photographer was sick but she is all better now. Have a fun weekend and follow me on Instagram @lucymelight

5 SHOES EVERY MAN SHOULD HAVE.



 You  can  judge a man by his  shoes. I know you might all want to disagree but its a sad truth.More  than 50%  of women judge a gentleman by his shoes me included. Reason  being  most women can tell a man's  personality,financial  status,attention  to detail and taste by just looking at your shoes. So me being a nice person and all. I have decided to help you pick out the most versatile shoe collection ever. The best part is you  don't  have to buy a lot of pairs.Ladies this post will help you pick out his next gift.

Oxfords.
Gents if you are going to pull  out your wallet and hit a store or five . I would highly recommend you to buy a pair of oxfords. It  should  be the first shoe  you buy.The Oxford shoe is the perfect occasion shoe.  It's best paired with a suit  but can also be worn semi-casually(super risky). Get a black pair just to be safe. This shoe is perfect for interviews and time you want to make an impression.

                                                        Loafers.
Loafers  are  a classic. I like to call them sneakers for  gentlemen. Loafers are classic. You  can wear them with any trend  and any sort of material.You  should seriously  consider  buying a pair and trust me it won't be a waste of your cash. You need to be careful  how you dress  them.  You don't want them looking off. You can wear them with shorts but avoid jean short,fishing shorts or safari shorts. The best part is you can wear them without  socks. Try navy loafer  for a formal look .
