Hey y'all!
I'm back again with another #OOTD look this week. During the winter months, the main priority for most is staying warm, therefore being stylish may be put on the back burner. Well, at least that is sometimes the case for me since winter is my least favourite season. However, I have begun to get more into large knitwear and the colour grey as I have been noticing more stylish fashion pieces of them lately. As a result, I have been having fun trying out fashion looks for the winter using knitwear...

Happy New Month!: November Orange Feature of the Month - Bouswari Handbag
Happy New Month!
Wow, I can't believe we are already in November! The year went by so fast!!
As we have come closer to the end of the year, this means my binge shopping online spree is about to begin lol. The first thing on my list to get my hands on was this beautiful Bouswari satchel bag. I had been eying this Senegalese brand of bags for the longest time and have always been interested in gettinga bag for myself. Therefore, as soon as I saw that they had added an orange bag to their new collection, I was immediately sold!!
Thus, my orange feature this month is my lovely new orange leather Bouswari bag. I especially love that this is a local Toronto brand and that all her handbags are crafted and handmade in Senegal.
