Are you a thrifty person? Do you shop for the year on black Friday? Just so you know, even when you’ve waited so long to spend, you can still make unwise choices. Before you join the bandwagon this black November, make sure you have a list of items that you really need. But before you make a list, here are a few things you might include in your fashion pieces.
Let’s EAR it for the girls!
When was the last time you wore nice earrings to work? Fun gathering? Date? Maybe it is time to overhaul your old collection and get some new earrings.
Go from Sole to Soul
Everyone needs a sturdy shoe and a classy shoe for black tie event. Check online to see new trends and go for it. Avoid buying any pair of shoes that look abandoned or have a protracted shelf life.
Secure the Bag
Your bag is a window to your soul. Bags are powerful fashion statements that reveal a lot about the people who carry them. Tote suggests that you’re organised; crossbag says you’re free-spirited. In all, get bags that give Timeless appeal, functionality and exude confidence and style.
Smart Casuals
Smart casuals have gained popularity since the pandemic. Many organisations have loosened the rein on their staff in the area of wardrobe and the hybrid nature of work has embraced this professional dress code that combines casual and formal elements to create a semi-formal look. It’s versatile style and often suitable for a range of settings, from the office to social events.
Join the Pyjamas Party
Don’t get it twisted. Pyjamas aren’t only for bedtime. They are great for photo-ops and holiday steeze. But beyond that, you can give yourself some pampering with satin-textured pyjamas or whatever works for you.
Be Waterproof
The rains are here again, ushering in winter or harmattan. Get yourself a whole waterproof kit to protect yourself, shoes, phones and other things from the downpour or relentless showers.
Make-up is Sweeter than Break Up
It is widely believed that women wear makeup to cover imperfections and appear more attractive within societal beauty standards. Also, many women want to look attractive in order to land a job interview or date. When used in the right way, you can use makeup to impress like Chidimma Adetshina. Be demure. Wear what suits your skin type.
When in doubt, Where A Jacket
Have you ever left your home without a jacket and then regret it some minutes later as the cold weather hits hard? Yes, your jacket is your best friend when it’s cold. It provides an extra layer of insulation and you should get one this Black November.
Sock it Up
Socks are essentials, providing protection by adding a layer between the shoe and your foot, easing friction and preventing blisters. Modern socks also have cushioned soles and padding to provide even more comfort. Get yourself some pairs.
Life is A Gift
Buy a gift for someone this Black November. Don’t make the shopping all about yourself. Has someone been kind to you this year? Are you in love with someone? Has your spouse or children impressed you lately? Here’s the best time to reward them.
