Today’s look is one of my favorites! It combines my love for fashionable skirts as well as my love of travel.
A really good friend of mine asked me to style a skirt for a travel day and I asked many of my Instagram followers whether that would be of interest as part of this series and the overwhelming majority said yes!
So here we are with a travel day skirt. This faux leather skirt is really my best find this series. It feels and looks like leather without the animal cruelty and the high price tag! I also picked this skirt because pleats are bae and as you can see from this posts here, here, here and yes – even here, pleats are back and a huge trend this fall/winter season.
I paired it with a long sleeved cashmere sweater and my favorite blush chucks! I love this look because it’s comfortable and for many of you who are replicating these looks, its an easy one to make your own! Throw on a coat and you are ready for some fall travel!
I’m Binja, an African based healthcare IT consultant by day and an #Africancocktail at all times! Who is an #Africancocktail? Allow me to explain: I’m half Congolese (DRC) and half Kenyan (hella African) – that along with the fact that I’ve grown up in five countries on three continents has contributed to my being an amalgamation of cultures (or in my case a cocktail). Yes, I’m one of those ‘third culture kids’ who sounds British but speaks Swahili and French with an American accent. So yes folks – I’m an #Africancocktail!
