One of the ever grateful and refreshing things about blogging and social influencing, is the impact and inspiration I get to make in the life other people. It gives me great joy and serves as a reminder when I don't feel really inspired to blog and take photos, that someone is waiting for me to post, someone is saying you inspire me, another person finds my work so artistic and relate-able and to mention, this is a daily fuel with keeps burning in my heart to do more. I have a lot artist and painters have created very good art work of me but this one really got me because of how deep the photos speak.Earning money is not always the ultimate in life for me, it is very important but creating to inspire others is fulfilling also.

Crossbags are perfect for everyday use and running errands, but the style craze didn't stop there, a stand out crossbag brand every fashionable man can't get over is the exclusive crossbody bag by Cocconero.com from the Napoleone collection which has an outstanding design, very practical and stylish men's crossbody bag..
The Cocconero cross bags gives you confidence to express your individuality, as it introduces crossbags to the mens formal world, which is one reason Men are obsessed over this brand aside the quality and amount of stuff the bag can hold. The bags are also known for there versatile designs and neutral colors which can be combined with any look. This bag makes everything so much more convenient.

Beside, there re different names for the crossbag which is also known as slingbags (though they go by many other names, such as crossbody bags, shoulder bags, or waist bags), which are majorly trending in the street-wear world.
This has been a topic a lot of media influencer and bloggers ask, what do I wear to a fashion show?. For me styling is about being comfortable and doing it the way it suits you. Fashion shows are always fun to attend, it is a lovely time to show off your street style and capture the attention of the media. You can get featured on fashion magazines and websites which can help boost your media awareness. But in the midst of all this, how do you prepare for a fashion show? I have listed
I will give you some tips and donts to attending a fashion show.
1. Be yourself
This can never be overemphasized, you need to always do whats suits you. Personal styling is everything, stocking up on a few trend based items can certainly help.
Do not stress yourself and get to anxious about the event. At the end of it all, we all go home to our families and loved ones.
2. Do not go out of budget
A lot of people tend to think that you need to wear designers outfits just because you are attending a fashion show. No dear, all you need is to look stylish and lovely. Some celebrities basically are paid to attend this fashion shows, the clothes are made available to them. Always try not to go out of budget. Be moderate.
Even if the pieces being showcased have such an incredible price tag. Chances are that you will barely even be caught on camera so just go with the flow and try to be a bit more like you.
If you have the money not withstanding you can spend it.
3. Who are you going with?
Honestly, is it more comfortable to have a friend by your side, especially if you are attending a fashion show for the 1st time. Generally, I recommend you need someone to talk with during the breaks and whisper to when you sight a lovely outfit on the runway. Who is gonna take photos of you? you need someone to take your photos. lol.
4. Keep it casual.
Less is more always works for a fashion show. People captured amongst the great street style images on fashion show events looked really casual yet sophisticated. You can wear a detailed jacket or accessories to compliment the outfit.
Sophistication: You can look be causal and yet look sophisticated. Causal does not mean you have to look normal. Go for printed pieces that stand out, I don't advice showing to much skin, too much sensuality is not needed, to avoid looking cheap in any respect. You are at a fashion show and not a frat party so it would do you good to look up the latest trends and really pick up pieces, which follow the designer hints.
5. Accessorize well.
This is very important, the shoes, the glasses, the bags, these details always stands out from your outfit. Thrifting sometimes wont be bad, even vintage pieces can also do the magic. Designer bags and shoes are also cool.
6. walk that walk, don't be intimidated.
The street is your runway, walk that walk. Enjoy every moment at the fashion show, get some coffee during the breaks, converse with great people who are willing to talk, get new tips and learn new things. Just be you and go shine.
How is the week going so far? Mine has been less stressful physically, taking selfies and eating a lot despite the weekly challenges and trying to be in my best state of mind always.
Do you always look smart everyday? I wrote a post on how to look stylish everyday. A lot of people struggle with looking good and smart everyday, this post will help you focus on the basis which will also guide you with wardrobe organization. One key point I mentioned was purchasing the right the right items especially the right type of shoes that can fit in easily.
Right Pair of Shoes
Style is not just about clothes, it is as much about your accessories and yes shoes of course. Always think about the occasion, the look your want to create, and whether you are comfortable or not. When you are planning to out for a part then you can consider slipping on stilettos. But you you are planning to dance through the night consider a pair of polished flats or wedges are they are more comfy. The Nike air force 1 is sure a good investment, I have basically been wearing my Nike sneakers which is a go to. Always ensure you purchase shoes from trusted retailers like footshop.ua.
The cold season is fast approaching are you getting ready? I am totally not ready physiologically. I wore my 1st fall outfit which featured a cardigan scarf from Szaleo.pl and this cute Jessicabuurman glend basic bucket bag which I also featured in my fashion show review video.
I like minimal fashion accessories that can stand out and uplift a look real quick. This bucket bag caught my attention at 1st sight. I wanted to add a mini bag to my collection of bags and I think this is a perfect add. This bag is a little on the high side price wise, but generally this is a very good bag. Nice leather with a beautiful inner check design material.
Polka dot is a pattern consisting of an array of large filled circles of same size.
Polka dots are most commonly seen on children's clothing, toys, and furniture, but they appear in a wide array of contexts. The pattern rarely appears in formal contexts, however, and is generally confined to more playful attire such as bathing suits and lingerie. Occasionally, white-on-black small dots appear on more formal clothing
Polka dot surprisingly is a versatile print. Cropping up repeatedly on the spring 2018 catwalks of labels like Balenciaga, Self-Portrait, Mary Katrantzou, Giorgio Armani, and Dior, offering multiple ways to wear polka dots, from Demna Gvasalia's chiffon dresses worn with sock boots to Maria Grazia Chiuri's monochromatic sheer skirts and blouses.
