Velvet Dress & Kimono: Zara | Boots (Old): New Look
Happy Mondayyy! Hope you all are well and having a great start to the week. I sure am…
Overly, this year has been off to a great and productive start. I believe one trait that has lent itself to enable such outcome is, planning. The importance of effective planning and prioritising can’t and shouldn’t be underestimated, as they work hand in hand to keep us accountable to our goals.
I do have detailed resources on Effective Planning and Tips for Productivity; so be sure to check those out.
… Now wishing the same energy and grace flows through the year.
Onto today’s look, this outfit was actually one of my last couples for last year. I unfortunately did not get round to putting it up, so instead of letting it slide, more so for the fact that I do like the blue velvet pairing, I have decided to make it our first look of the year. Is that cheering I hear for the one that survived the backlog? Haha! Be rest assured, I’ve got lots planned for us this year. Stay tuned, and be a part of it.
Be Right Back,
Funmi xx

I agree with you, planning and prioritising are must-do things sometimes! I think I am a balance between that and being flexible… maybe too “gypsy” 🙂 But let’s talk about your amazing outfit! I love velvet and you elevated it wearing a colour that is not the expected one, like burgundy or the LBD. You look really gorgeous! Hope you have a lovely evening!
