The beauty of knots ...
Hey guys, its been so long !! Hope everyone’s been well and has been having the best summer . Todays post is on the outfits that I wore in London when I went a few weekends back ( for those of you following me on Instagram may be aware ) . The two outfits are quite similar in a way where they both consist of the same aspect that makes them different.
Okay so to make this post a little more easier to understand I' ll first begin by telling you what that aspect that the two outfits hold are ! So it is the fact that all they consist of knots on a garment , which was completely unplanned but I found my self doing it quite frequently , as I feel like just adding a knot somewhere on something loose and baggy can make it look completely different , and give it a very fresh and distinctive finish to it , so I thought i have to talk about this on the blog and mention how a little tweak on an outfit can literally the change the whole thing - for those of you that may be looking for new ways to style your clothes .
Now that we have gotten the entire ' aspect ' out of the way , I can begin by talking about my outfits .
Outfit 1 :
So we travelled to London at like 10 in the morning and I’ am absolutely not a morning person at all which is why that is super early for me , so I wanted to wear something very comfortable that would of course allow me to take a nap on the way there. I chose to wear culottes with a long baggy jumper , now guys , these white and black culottes I wore were actually wide legged trousers which I cut up , yes at 9 in the morning because I just wasn’t feeling the other ones that I own ! Then I put on an oversized long jumper and stood near the mirror and looked at my self thinking wow ! I look like a joke , but then i thought you know what , lets just give this a knot and get to the car . I ended up pairing the outfit with these simple flats just to keep the outfit casual , also they are so so comfortable which was needed for a day that was going to be spent shopping and exploring . I finished the look of with a yellow satchel as I thought the outfit needed abit of an uplifting effect with so much black and white going on .

Outfit 2 :
The next day we were going to be exploring the city and going around on the tubes , so I chose to wear something super duper comfortable that was easy to move around in . I wore light grey jeggings with a simple shirt like blouse and finished it off with a long denim shirt ! This outfit was so basic and simple which is why I knotted the two long panels at the front together which made it look like a completely distinctive outfit. I finished it off with adidas superstars to allow for it to be super casual , and comfortable too .
