I am a new Caribbean Style/Fashion Blogger. I have an urban style; it is not traditional but unpredictable with a pinch of mainstream fashion and creativity altogether. My style reflects my lifestyle, attitude and individuality to dress as I am pleased, once it doesn't cross my boundaries of modesty I can live with that.

50 Shades of Grey OOTD- Many Moods of WestIndianBella
50 Shades of Grey! No I am not referring to the 2011 bestseller erotic romance novel by E.L. James, I am referring to my fancy fashionable outfit with a blend of masculine and feminine appeal. In my opinion, every Fashion/Stylist must have several pairs of sneakers apart from those 6 inch heels. A true Stylist knows how to remodel her style to fit any occasion. I always refer to my fashion sense as unpredictable.I am all rounded and I embrace the moods of my feelings and environment which help to further describe my taste.
I am wearing a classic Chuck Taylor Converse sneakers. Converse has been leading the way in affordable, fashion-savvy footwear that appeals to both low and high end fashion. When selecting a Converse I normally go for a half (1/2) size smaller than my normal size.I highly recommend when shopping for a pair of Converse sneakers please go for a half size smaller in order to get that glove immaculate fit, so that it will not look too goofy and clumsy on your feet.
The mood of this outfit is bittersweet with different shades of grey. I use Nyx black lipstick mixed with Revlon purple Matte Balm on my lips. The dark tone gives a gloomy, but sexy gothic look. It brings about an exotic racy finish. 50 Shades of Grey much? The classic Converse, silver jewelry and flash tattoos shows that despite what, she is still confident, enthusiastic and grateful.
When I am selecting an outfit I try to tell a story.
Yay or Nay to this outfit?
Where did I buy my outfit-
Flash Tattoo- purchased at Zadora Golden Doors Mall Frederick/ Henry Street Port of Spain.
White T Shirt- Eastern Avenue on Frederick Street Port of Spain

Camo and Red Heels
Okay! As absurd as it sounds, it's illegal to wear any print of camouflage colour in Trinidad and Tobago. For us locals, if you can recall in May 2013, custom officers seized a 10 month old infant camouflage clothing at the airport. Huh? I know some of us are probably throwing our heads back in laughter. Where do we come up with these laws? I will always think the law in Trinidad was written by a senseless hater with no sense of fashion. Unfortunately, it is what it is; that's the law. Hmm that sucks for us Fashionistas, but I am always a girl who takes risk when it comes to style.
My Camo pants and red heels... Mmmmmmmmmm smells, looks and tastes good! lol

Modest? Say What!
There is a constant pressure in society to stay modest. I
refer to it as the covered challenge which many have failed. Today women are
looked upon as sex objects; like the perfect liquor to quench a man’s thirst.
Whenever society comes across a female with a ‘good’ body the next desire is to
see her assets. Unfortunately nothing is left to the imagination. Then again, call me old fashion, as I almost forgot that is considered liberal for
modern secular planet earth.
The constant strain to be nude is generic; that is no
surprise. The norm is to expect the unexpected from anyone. Society has now
groomed us into cannibals. Nudity has become the ink in water infiltrating the pure
to endorse poisoned minds. The reaction nowadays in seeing a well-dressed
covered woman has now become taboo; we tend to stare and gaze, dropping our
comments of discernment to express our whole hearted disapproval. Everyone is
eager to be a sex symbol as it’s the fuel that helps stir the hype in society
in order to stay relevant.
As a full fledged covered woman, I have encountered so many
pressure to relinquish my modest attire and do photo-shoots like the generic societal
attractive woman. Society has poisoned us into thinking that attraction and
beauty is associated with nudity. I can argue that, but in this day and age my point will not carry
much weight.
I have seen so many covered girls fall into the temptation to expose themselves. I am thankful that I have no such history. I am not tempted by nudity, because I am already sure about myself. I don’t need a half of million likes to prove how attractive I am. As attraction is a subjective term; some show it in modesty, books or nudity etc. My relevance and place in society is more of a challenge. It’s a covered girl challenge, which indeed is basically the hardest challenge ever. In today’s world where every woman is addicted to cosmetic surgery, there are millions out there who can do the same thing. Don’t challenge me to what is common. Challenge me to what is impossible or difficult for society.
I stand my ground as a full fledged covered woman, and I am thankful that I have never succumbed to removing my head covering nor modest attire, in order to satisfy society's thirst. Covered girl modest challenge, who is with me?
Despite
how intense the pressure may get, I have always managed to stand my ground. My
body is my trophy/temple and I keep it on the highest shelf, adorn and covered
in a glass cage. Lock and key? Of course!And it takes a pretty darn good lucky man
to unleash me, all in the light of marriage. But how is a man to know if he has not seen your body? Well in my faith if you have any severe imperfections on your body the correct thing to do is tell him about it. What if he doesn't like what he sees? Then bye Felicia! Shallow comes shallow goes. Hence forth, I am confident and when that time comes, wait until I blog about that. Oh I'm teasing and just keeping the humour alive.
