☆.D.I.Y Ankara Skirt & OOTN + Ankara Styles.☆

Heyaa guys,

So I'm back with another ankara D.I.Y woop woop! First of all let me once again state that I am far from an expert, I do not use a pattern and pretty much go with the flow!
At first I wanted to create a maxi skirt with the fabric but it didn't look how I imagined it so I later cut it and made it a midi skirt. So lets get to it shall we =]

What I Used:
+ Sewing Machine
+Tailors Chalk
+Ankara fabric
+Elastic


Heres how I did it

Step 1:

First I made sure the fabric I wanted to use was folded, then using tailors chalk I traced around a skirt I had. Here I use a maxi skirt because I wanted to make a maxi skirt to begin with but changed my mind towards the end.

☆.OOTN: Pinks & Lace.☆

Heya guys,

So last weekend I went to dinner for one of my closest friends birthdays. My Omobs she's just an amazing, entertaining and loyal friend! I appreciate how much she has been there for me. From my first friend at uni, I know our friendship will last a lifetime (even if its by force) hehe! Here are some pics from the night =].

☆.Love Lounging It Up-OOTN.☆

A couple of weeks back I attended 'love lounge' with my friends, it was a night of live music and comedy. I thought I'd make the effort since I always opt for the easy option of a top with leggings (I can be so lazy when it comes to dressing up) so here's what I wore....

☆OOTN: Red Hot Rhythm.☆

Heya guys, 

So I'm back with another OOTN. Excuse the toilet pictures but no-one ever helps me take pictures so you gotta do what you gotta do right?!

If you haven't noticed by now I am not a skinny girl (I know shock horror! lol) and It is kind of a struggle finding certain outfits that fit my body right, I'm sure a lot of you can relate! Well I came across this lovely little boutique in Walthamstow market (East London) which surprisingly stocks very nice formal dresses for a range of different sizes. I can't remember the name of the store  (do forgive me) but the label on the dress is called 'Closet'.

☆.OOTN: Casual Show.☆

Yesterday I went out with one of my girls to a show that another University was putting on and here are our outfits of the night.

☆.OOTN: Ankara Styles.☆

Like I told you I would be uploading more ankara styles, so here are some pics from my mums 50th birthday which was held last year. The pictures are some of the styles my friends decided to make with the tailor, hope you like it :)

This is a simple dress with a pink band sewn onto the dress.

☆.OOTN: White Party!.☆

The other night I went to an all white party with my girls and here is what I wore. I went for a simple up-do hairstyle (always doing up-dos i know) to add to the classiness of the outfit.

☆.OOTN: Yellowing it up!.☆

I'm always one to go for the easy simple styles when it comes to dressing up, I recently found a shop on ebay that has some really nice simple styles at affordable prices. What is also good about the store is that there are so many different colours to choose from ( I love my colours!).
So I went out with my girls last week and this is what I wore:
