Outfit of the Day

Another outfit post, lucky you! ;)

I bought this Akira skirt just before Christmas and I’m totally obsessed by it. Like my thick sister, Beyoncé, I love accentuating my curves (much to my mother’s horror!) and this skirt, with its fitted waist and large, origami-like, overlapping panels most certainly has a pouf factor.

The material is padded like a quilt and I love the print and all the colours in it. Despite how many colours I have to work with, I seem to always want to wear red and pink with this skirt. I actually really enjoy mixing red and pink together in fashion, mainly because it always freaks people out because it’s ‘against the rules’. Pfffftttt! For an example of how pink and red can look amazing together, peep this story by my friend, stylist Lydia-Jane Saunders (third one along).
