Over the years, I’ve noticed that my personal style has evolved. Apart from my preference for comfort, I’ve learned to love more feminine pieces, so much so that I now prefer dresses over trousers. Maybe this has to do with the fact that it is blistering hot right now and just the thought of putting on a constricting pair of jeans at the moment makes me feel like I will melt.

This dress checks all those boxes. Although I tend to wear it for smarter functions, I can see myself dressing it down should the need arise. I’d like to say that styling it like a skirt like I did here was intentional but it was cold when I wore this (and took these photos) so the cream coat had to make an appearance.
The black heels were the simplest shoes I had that would allow this dress to shine through. I felt the deep black colour contrasted well with the lighter peach and cream colours of the rest of the outfit.
Thank you for stopping by.
