PeekaBoo Skirt

I am still in love with Maxi and Midi skirt though it is not really summer anymore ! I just bought this Peekaboo maxi skirt in purple and love it so much !

To make this work in the fall, pairing it with a sweater and booties will be so perfect !

This is the skirt I got just recently on sale from BCG Max ! The inspiration to buy this came from Rachel Bison’s look !

Other ways to wear it this fall, would be to pair it with a smart cropped jacket or tights !

 If you can still lap up the sun then the maxi peekaboo skirt is a perfect way to dress feminine for a party or just girls day out ! It could would be worn with tanks or cropped shirts and plenty of accessories :)

I love all these styles ! tell me about your ways to style a skirt !

Hair Mask that I am loving

I am always experimenting with what is going to make my hair have more volume and shine, so I tried this mask and really loved the result better than any of the volumising conditioners I have been using ! It was messy and smelly but after I washed it out, my hair felt thicker and shinier ! Loved the result so much !

Ingredients:

1. 1 Egg White

2. 2 Tablespoon Yoghurt

3. 1 Tablespoon Honey

4.  2 Tablespoon Olive Oil

5. A squeeze of lemon (for oily hair/optional)

Mix all the ingredients well and apply on your hair, cover with a shower cap. Wash off after an hour and enjoy your hair that actually feels stronger. Dont forget to do this every week for a while for maximum results !

Dont forget to subscribe and leave your comments of what you think of this mask ! Would you try it?

First Ladies Forever Part 2

While Jackie O looked so amazing and is clearly my favorite, it is impossible for me to not be swept away by the grace, gown and glam accessories used by Michelle Obama for her inaugural ball ! It was such a stunner and she looks so fresh and beautiful in her ivory gown by Jason Wu.

She looked amazing in the dress and her style statement is fresh and uniquely her own for a First Lady ! Bravo
