There are not many things that I adore when it comes to being bold. However this insanely beautiful red scarf, courtesy of my stunning friend Tayla, has caused me to wonder from home. It captured me and didn’t let me go, most of the morning. To be frank, I can be a very lazy person at times. My family might argue most of the time, at times when I’m not rushed with work. However, last Friday was a very fun, easy and extremely productive day for me. Between the sunrise photoshoot, breakfast date with my better half, editing and my night shift it was a very good day.
I know there has been a large gap between my posts recently but I assure you I am back! In carrying on with my 3 looks I decided to go with this very random and completely last minute vibe. As we all know, my wardrobe basics are very simple. I kept with the black jeans and the combat boots while adding this adorable patterned poncho. This was to, essentially, be my ‘look’.
However, the whole spontaneity of this day completely engulfed me and I moved out of my comfort zone. I present to you the beauty that is the colour red. Maybe it was the gorgeous day with the insanely demanding Port Elizabeth wind or maybe it was because I was out the door before sunrise on a Friday, whatever it was though, I was so drawn by the allure of this deep, almost storytelling, scarf I couldn’t leave it out.
I think overall my favourite part of this whole post has to be the day behind it. The random, the exploring and the daring that happened as we went along. It was all about the moment and all about the drama.
Play around with the bold accessories. Pump some colour on an already set outfit spontaneously. I’ve learned that the slightly miss-matched and the not entirely aligned make for good memories and lovely confidence.
