5 items that will give your wardrobe a pop!!

As another month is coming to an end, salaries and allowance have people thinking on how to spend their money. I'm no financial expert but I know how we walk into a shop and later regret most of our purchases. I hate being in that position even though I recommend every once in a while impulse buying. Here are the lists of things you might not have realized but will go a long way in transforming your look.








1) BROOCH
 They come in all sorts of design and colours plus they are easy on the pocket. you can wear it the classic way which is on the lapel of a blazer or through the holes of your skinny belt right next to the buckle. You could even gather a bunch of necklaces and pin them together with a brooch or tie a scarf in form of a headband and pin the brooch to hold it up.
there are lots of ways to incorporate a brooch to your look.














2) COLOURED/TEXTURED/PATTERNED BLAZER
  Unlike what most people think, these blazers would go with most even of outfits if co-ordinated well. wear it with a frill dress or lbd or even a prim pencil skirt or denim. It will bring a new statement to your outfit. Personally I love the red blazer paired with gold and black chunky accessories.


































3) STATEMENT WATCH


4) CARDIGANS
  Yes! even with our weather, you can rock cardigans, the light material ed ones though. I'll advise you stay away from the embellished one as they are not as versatile as most, if you don't want the regular plain cardigans, you could go for striped ones like the one in the picture or just pin a brooch to it. they come in long sleeve, quarter sleeve or no sleeves so they can be worn with almost anything. if you choose to leave the buttons open, wear a skinny belt over it for a more defined look.







5) FEDORA HAT

As seen on mo cheddah in my last post. fear not, you don't need a professional stylist to know how to rock this look. Wear it with a maxi or mini dress or jeans. It is a casual look, please DO NOT wear it for a formal event as I've seen many Nigerian celebs sporting it on the red carpet. a brooch can also be pinned to it to give it a twist.
