MisSue's style & identity

I documented what I was wearing twice a week for the past 4 weeks. I selected the top 5 looks I liked the most, to share with you! My style is constantly changing but here is my latest styles...


When I got up in the morning, I picked this outfit because I was in such a happy mood.  I think this outfit is pretty and  cute. I love the colours grey and cream together; it makes a good combination and is suitable for the winter. The hat is from Woolworths, a cute hat is the perfect accessory to any outfit for this winter in my opinion. I absolutely LOVE hats; it is definitely something that I will add most of the time to any of my outfits. The cream long sleeve shirt under the dress is also from Woolworths. The cream dress is from Vertigo and is perfect for day to night wear with the right accessories. The scarf and the light grey jean are from Woolworths.  The boots is from Foschini, I like to choose a shoe or boots with a little heel for extra height.


This outfit of mine is quite plain. I always try to make a statement with one garment piece.  As you see I was wearing full on black except for the brown shoes and sling bag. The coat is from Foschini, the leggings from Daisy Island in Cape Town. The sling bag is from Forever New, which I believe was a great investment because it almost fits with every outfit, if you don’t have one get one, you won’t regret it! The boots has got a lot of detail on them with the studs and straps that’s why I like the boots, it already adds detail to the outfit do it is not necessary for any other accessories.  This outfit is also more style based than fashion based, meaning its not something out of the ordinary. LESS IS MORE!! Leggings is also a great buy for the winter!!



This outfit is overall very casual and an easy wearing look. The jacket makes this outfit! I chose this jacket from Vertigo, because it is very comfortable, light weighted and the puff quarter sleeves makes it stylish. The jacket also gives an over-sized feel to the look. The jacket is perfect for windy weather and for when it is not too hot or too cold. Underneath the jacket I’m wearing a plain black long sleeve t-shirt from Woolworths made of pure cotton. The jean is also from Woolworths which fits my body type perfectly. The black ankle boots is from Edgars, ankle boots are very trendy right now and I just love wearing these ankle boots, because it is not too high and it gives me the perfect added height. This outfit can be worn from day to night by adding the right accessories and maybe a scarf if preferred.  


Girly or feminine is what I call this look. It is almost the same as the other picture with the cream dress. I just changed a view things, but it amazed me how different the two pictures look just by adding a scarf and wearing pumps both from Woolworths. In this outfit I wanted to show how well the colours work together and how the outfit is lighten up just by adding the peach scarf. This would also look great with a waist belt and accessories. What I like about this dress is that it is a neutral colour, so you can always wear another colour shirt underneath it, it will always look different from the previous outfit, even when you wear different accessories with it. The dress can be worn in winter and summer, so it is a timeless dress.


I chose this outfit because it has a funky and fun feel to it and it is something different to what I usually wear. I think the striped sunglasses and shirt makes this outfit, without the glasses  and shirt with stripes, it would have been just a normal outfit but the stripes gives it that something extra. The glasses and the waist belt is from Mr. Price,  and makes quite a statement.  The jacket, shirt  and my favourite shoes is from Woolworths. The leggings is from a boutique called Daisy Island in Cape Town, Canal Walk. I think this outfit reflects a bit of my personality. The jacket is the right length for me, longer  jackets tend to make me look shorter than I am, so that is why I chose this jacket. Also if I decided to wear a white jacket it wouldn’t had the same effect on the outfit as this black jacket. The glasses, shirt and shoes draws the attention in this outfit.
