FASHION, OUTFITS
January 24 2015

ZARA Coat, Turtleneck, Boots & Bag | TOPSHOP Jeans Just popped the kettle on, I’m about to make some tea – chamomile & honey, my favourite – and warm up after a morning of running errands in the cold. Glad to say that my knits and polo necks have been keeping me warm, but still feeling every bit as stylish as I feel when the weather is warmer. This is a very simple outfit, something I’d normally go for on a day when I want more function over fashion, like today. I love that in all black I feel ready for… Read More »

My Autumn Style | LOOKBOOK

FASHION, LOOKBOOK
November 11 2014

This Autumn I’m so excited to be layering it up with my favourite sweaters, jackets, boots and the lot! Mind you, we did have a few sunny spells and warm weather at some point, hence the brave minimal heel, but now it’s getting a lot colder so I’m definitely switching those staples for a pair of boots! Don’t you just love it when you have a vision for something and it all comes together the way you intended for it to? I felt that way about this video. I tweeted earlier about how much fun I had creating it, from picking… Read More »

 Hello lovelies! So I thought it’d be fun (and hopefully helpful) to make this video, as I’ve discovered so many tricks that have been working so well for me, right from hair styles through to bras that work perfectly with various garments! I also had a little camera play, hence the shots! 😉 My top is a gorgeous number from Reiss. It reminds me of a dress that Beyonce wore to an awards show recently… white, lace, elegant…what more could you want? I hope you enjoy the video!

October 10 2014

Hello everyone! I’m currently on holiday (Lagos, Nigeria), but I pre-filmed and edited this video for you. I’m a huge fan of Scandal and Olivia Pope’s style so I thought it’d be fun to do a Lookbook inspired by her. I hope you enjoy it. Which look is your favourite? I’m thinking of turning this into a series, what do you think? I could do a couple other on-screen sirens? Thinking it’d be fun, and i’ll get to experiment with my style a little…even try more colour, textures, patterns etc! Hope you enjoy the video, and be sure to click… Read More »

August 25 2014

Pssst! Notice anything different?? A brand new Blog Design! Woohoo! I am so excited to bring you the new Shirley’s Wardrobe. In the last months I’ve been working on making a few changes here and there, to be able to express my creativity more fluidly. Shirley’s Wardrobe as you all know has been part of my life for a very long time, and it has evolved so much since the first day it begun. It started off as an offshoot to my YouTube Channel, where I’d share little snippets of my life, photo diaries and such. Today it is recognised… Read More »
