Welcome to a brand new week beautiful people!
How was your weekend?
Around Christmas, I wore this “bell sleeve blouse” which I styled with Analogous colours. You can check out that post on what Analogous colours are if you missed it.
My believe about maximising my closet hasn’t changed so I decided to style the blouse again today. For this look, I paired the bell sleeve blouse with a silk multicoloured print midi skirt and finished the look with nude heels. For accessories, I wore an emerald green drop earrings.
I love the pocket detail on the skirt. It is super chic.
Fashion TIP Today ::: How to tone down floral / print
One of the simplest ways to tone down prints or floral is to pair them with nude heels. As you can see in my look above, I paired my print skirt with nude heels so the look is not too busy.
Another way is to choose one of the colours on your floral/print to pair your look except you are going for a print on print look.
If you are not sure on how to mix/pair print on print, check out my article on how to mix print on print. You will find it helpful.
Motivation for Monday ::: Take charge of your day
Either you run the day or the day runs you…..Jim Rohn
How you start your day is very crucial / important to the outcome of your day. Starting the day in a good state of mind or positively puts everything in place. It affects your mood and how productive you are for the day.
If you wake up on the wrong side of the bed which can happen sometimes, it is important not to set out in that kind of bad mood. Take a minute to reflect, meditate and ensure to set your mind in a good state before you set out for the day. One way to do that is to think of something that has put a smile on your face before and show gratitude by being thankful for it.
Another way to take charge of your day is to CONFESS positive things to your self. If you like call it affirmation or declaration for the day. A simple line like; as I set out today, favour will follow me or all shall be well with me can make a lot of difference in your day.
I personally have a quiet time / pray, set goals for the day/week and confess my affirmation for the day/week. So far, this simple steps make my day/week go smoothly.
Even when challenges arise or come, I do everything possible to reassure myself that all will be well. You should try it too. It works.
So tell me, how do you take charge of your day? Do you pray or do you meditate? Please share what you do with me.
So tell me, how do you mix or wear your prints/floral? Would love to know please.
I want to thank you so much for stopping by today. I am always very happy to see you stop by.
Wishing you a fantastic week filled with blessings from above.
Much Love, Mojisola.

What a pretty skirt! The pocket addition is definitely a nice plus – and the blouse looks very nice with it!
Every morning I thank God for the day and ask for His blessings upon me and my family…
Have a great week Mojisola! 🙂
Thank you dear Linda. YES, it is indeed very good to be thankful and pray on behalf of our family. Great woman you are.
Cheers.
Okay, I am so getting this skirt. Like girl you slayed!!! You look absolutely stunning . yassss!
Thank you dear Lydie. Glad you liked the look. Yes, you go ahead and get the skirt. It is from the HM trend collection.
Take care of you.
This skirt is fantastic and I love how you styled it! You look so beautiful and I agree with the nude pumps to tone down a colourful look.
Prayer and meditation is the first thing I do each and every morning I wake up for the last 3 years. I also do daily practices for gratitude like writing down the things I am grateful for 🙂 You would be an exceptional motivation speaker my dear!
Enjoy you day & bless you!

Take charge of the day? You took charge of this look. Wow! I love everything about this ensemble. The billowy sleeves, the rich jewel tone of the knit top, the length & fullness of the skirt as well as pattern. Truly elegant. You’re ready for the theater, evening event, fab dinner and/or a day in the office to show people how you slay it!
You’re on another level.

Lol to taking charge of the look. Thank you girl. Honestly, I am so happy to see you. Hope you are better now. And the get away? Tell me about it.
Kisses.

I had a great time on holiday. 10 days away from the office and normal life, I probably enjoyed it too much! I’ll email you over the wknd.
Btw, happy to be back. Now I have to get up the energy to start blogging again. That being said, I hope to be back at it come this Monday.
Lovely outfit Moji. The skirt is really pretty. I love emerald green.
I do agree that the way you start your day is very crucial. If you start the day cranky, your day might end up becoming crappy. If you start with a carefree attitude, you will end the day joyful. Last Thursday, I decided I would start my day at work with a no worry attitude and not allow the workload to overwhelm me but to do what I can and leave the rest. Let’s just stay is one of the best days I have ever had. It was a stress free day. i started the day chilled and I ended it chilled.
