Homie Lover Friend Tee: YouWorkIt
Jeans: Topshop Joni
Booties: Gina Tricot
Lipstick: Wet N Wild's Cherry Bomb and OCC Lip Tar in Black Dhalia

If you follow me on Instagram you would have already seen this but I just had to share my win with you guys!
You know when you forget about a item of clothing you once brought and then you find it literally MONTHS later and you're ecstatic?! 
Yeah! This is what happened here.

I brought this Homie, Lover, Friend tee almost two years ago after I had first fallen in love with it from seeing a picture of it on Tumblr, but back then I wasn't too sure of my personal style and so quickly left it in the back of my drawer.
Last week I happened to be rummaging around some of my unpacked uni belongings when I found it!
I had plans for it immediately.

Risa has really inspired me to give tees more of a look in, so I popped it straight on with the amazing Joni Jeans for Topshop (I seriously love these jeans guys but bare in mind Primark do a dupe of these for a tenner!) and my Gina Tricot sling back boots.

I love the retro look I've achieved with this.
The possibilities with tees really are never ending, I will definitely be purchasing more in the future!

Are you a tee lover?
Can you recommend some great tee vendors?
How would you style this t-shirt?

Eye Of The Tiger

Mr Gugu & Miss Go Lampart Sweater in Small
Say hello to my new beau Sasha...I genuinely love him.
I ordered this sweater from Mr Gugu and Miss Go what feels like decades ago and it finally came through today.
And it was totally worth the wait!
This super daring sweater features a large Lampart snarling on the back and front making it the definition of a statement piece!
You could pair this daring piece with a pair of black super skinnies, black heeled sandals, a gorgeous clutch and good ol' faithful Ruby Woo or for more dress down days a black jersey midi skirt, white converses and beanie hat!
I can't wait to showcase this out, let's hope the weather allows this to happen soon because I'm getting tired of Winter-Spring!


How would you style this piece?

What statement pieces do you own?

Soldier Status

Camo Jacket: ASOS Marketplace/Jeans: Primark/Boots: New Look
This was my running errands look today.
Lately my main aim has been to keep warm.
Cold seems to be my best friend so I make sure I am layered up to the fullest whenever I leave the house nowadays. 
Today the weather was just crap however I had some last minute Christmas shopping to do so I donned my camo gear to show the world I WASN'T PLAYING AROUND! *hard face*

I've never been so excited for Christmas, not because of the presents but the company. 
I feel as though I haven't spent enough times with my loved ones lately being caught up in my everyday life however around Christmas, 
I just FEEL THE LOVE! 
(Darius would be so proud of me!)

I can't wait to see my friends and spend time with my family.

Tune I've been LOVING lately...click below:



In case I don't blog before Tuesday, have an overly blessed Christmas guys!
Thank you so much for reading. 
Means the world and then some.

Vamp

Jacket: ASOS/ Crop Top: eBay/ Disco Pants: Glamorous/ Heels: Primark/
Sunglasses: eBay/ Bracelet: ASOS/
Lipstick: Wet N Wild Vamp It Up & NYX Xtreme Lip Cream in Absolute Red
I felt like a BOWSE wearing this despite it being cold.
Initially I put this ensemble together for a styling post but loved it so rocked it out for a bit today minus the heels. You can also find this on my Instagram (@NatalieKayo)
I was cold as hell but at least I looked good in these Glamorous Charcoal Disco Pants...priorities right? I really like these bottoms as they are high waisted so they make my waist look smaller, WINNING.

On my lips I have another new combo: Wet N Wild's Vamp It Up with NYX Xtreme Lip Cream in Absolute Red on top.

In life I still feel like I have a lot going on and not a lot of time to do it in but I guess you have to give yourself time to adjust to the real world. 
Sometimes I feel as though I am still in uni mode.
I think I have to find something to look forward to, does anyone else feel that way?

Song I've been loving lately? Press play below!

Nineties


As I sit here shouting at Nicole "I've been hiding my stupidity away for years until now" Scherzinger on X Factor I thought now would be a perfect time to share one of my new purchases.

I've wanted vintage high waisted Levi's for the longest and I managed to snag two on eBay both for less than £25, can someone say BARGAIN!?!
I teamed this one with my ASOS crop top and will probably team with my black Timbs or black heeled sandals.

I haven't had the courage to wear this out, when I drop another dress size then hells yeah!

In case your wondering on my lips I am wearing
Wet N Wild's Vamp It Up & 908C, loving this combo!

Casual

Beanie - Unknown/Top - Miss Selfridge/Jeans - H&M/Converse Trainers(sorry you cant see) - Footlocker/ Lips - Ruby Woo/ Earrings - eBay
This is what I wore today to work, on the weekend formal dress is not required so I decided to change it up a lil bit. I went for the casual look but dressed it up with some lippie. Lipstick is really becoming my fav new accessory!

Recently I have made a conscious decision to work out my style.
 I know what I like but it is a case of pulling it off which I am always anxious about so I play it safe. I love this casual look, I feel it's a stepping stone to actually conveying my personality through my clothes instead of just dressing to comfort.

After work did some shopping in Oxford Street which was a COMPLETE nightmare, soooo many slow walking people, NEVER AGAIN!

Hope everyone is well! Can't believe summer is officially over but to be honest it never really began, sigh!
I have a HUGGEE beauty haul coming up as I have been going beauty crazy, also watch out for my next post...more about BB creams - the real stuff!

Neon

Sunglasses - eBay/Jacket - ASOS/ Top - Mums/ Leggings - H&M/ Boots - H&M/ Bag - eBay
Today was HOT! A LOT hotter than I had expected so for work I donned a jacket, I also donned some sunnies and placed my umbrella in my bag, because, you know...this is the UK.

Alas, it did not rain and yes I was BOILING in this combination but at least I looked cool-ish for a while!

I tend to steer away from bright colours but I really love this neon accented bomber from ASOS, the perfect accompaniment to an all black outfit!

Tee And Scones

I've had a fab day! 
It's been a HOT minute (no pun intended) since I have been out and enjoyed myself. I had arranged with a friend to go to Hyde Park (my favourite destination on a hot day) and float around on the Serpentine but my friend surprised me at the last minute and treated me to Afternoon Tea in Central London.

I have never had Afternoon Tea before but I LOVED it! We went to the St James Sofitel Rose Lounge near Piccadilly Circus.
The experience was LUSH! A very decadent room with a harp player and gorgeous surroundings!

We indulged in freshly baked scones, finger sandwiches and french pastries!
My friend who had remembered me saying that I wanted to try new things hit the nail on the head with this one, I definitely recommend Afternoon Tea! It was indulgent but great and a great way of seeing London on sunny days like this!

As the weather was suuupppeerrr hot! FINALLLLAY! I wanted to keep my outfit as breathable and easy as possible!
I teamed my H&M casual tee dress with ASOS sandals, my Ebay bag and my H&M aviators. This dress has short sleeves but I rolled them for more comfort.
As a bigger girl sometimes I feel self conscious about showing so much skin but today I put all that nonsense aside and let the sun do its work!

I hope we get a few more days like this before winter comes around!

What did you get up to in the heatwave?

Soo...I Did It










Yeahhh so I had a vain moment, there really is NO NEED for all the photos but I had to show off my NEW DO!

Yeah I went and got it chopped off and I LOVE IT!
It's very choppy and sort of punk rockish which I love!
I have a shape up and all sorts!
I guess the hard part comes with maintaining it now but we all learn as we go along.

The first pic is salon fresh and you can see my dogs cheeky face in the background too!

Was not sure how everyone would take the drastic change but I have had an awesome response from my FB family! :) 

Got my hair cut at Radiant Salon in Bermondsey if anyone is interested.

While I'm here thought I'd do a quick outfit post too!

Went to meet a friend today for a spot of shopping!

Wanted to keep it quite casual!




Jacket: Primari, Top: Topshop, Riding Pants: H&M, Snood: H&M, Heels: Ebay

Apologies for the state of these photos and my militant stance...I have no excuse!

I also want to bring attention to my new shoes!



JC knock off's! Yeah I'm NOT ashamed! Not for the price I bagged them at! £30!!! BARGAAAIN! They are ridiculously comfortable!

I've seen another pair that look exactly like Lita's, may treat myself to those in another colour!

Hmm...

Anyway guys, I'm off to decorate the Christmas tree...BADLY.

Stay tuned to DOS will be making some well needed changes in the new year!

Also a big mahussive THANKS TO ALL READERS AND SUBBIES!

You make blogging worthwhile!
