Tickled Pink by Wedding Bliss

*da dum da dum, daaaa dum da dummm* *here comes the blog post all typed in black and white* 

This year has been a beautiful year of love and weddings! So far I've been to three wonderful weddings with another one on the way! 

I recently attended a Nigerian traditional wedding of one of my college buddies. It was such a joyful day! It truly is wonderful to see the people you have seen grow up step into this whole new phase of their life. One day by grace it will be my turn... eeekk! But my knight has got to find me first... but that is another story for another blog post...

My outfit for the traditional wedding was far from traditional Nigerian  wear as I intended to go down the traditional route for the couples white wedding. 

On a recent expedition to River Island to see if I can spend the gift voucher I have had for almost 2 years, I found this bright pink long sleeved midi dress on SALE for only £12!! O the joy that filled my soul! 

I teamed the dress with my beaded collar from Dorothy Perkins, suede wedges from New Look and my mums box bag which added a vintage touch. 

This outfit was simple and so comfortable! Plus the fact I got it on sale was an extra whoop!!

Its been a while since I last posted. I was all the way in bonnie old Wales where there was more sheep than good reception! I hope everyone is all good though?

Trend Watch: The Little White Dress (LWD)

Hey Up! 

Welcome to another weekly fashion dose of TMQ! 

We have all heard of the Little Black Dress (LBD) but what about the Little White Dress (LWD)? 

The LWD is fast becoming a fashion must for the summer. For a modesty conscious lady a Midi White Dress (MWD) is the perfect alternative! 

Scroll down to see how MWD's have been worn this season. 

   Which style would you wear?

Which style is your favourite?

Get the Look! 

This MWD from ASOS is the perfect addition to any wardrobe and at £40.00 is an inexpensive investment.

I love the contrast of crisp whites and bright colours, hence why I have teamed the MWD with the bright coral clutch and sandals from New Look. 

However, this MWD can also be paired with simple black or nude accessories. The beauty of the MWD is that it is very versatile and can be tailored to suit your own style. :) 


Just wanted to say a huge THANK YOU to everyone who has followed and supported The Modest Quirk be it via Facebook, Instagram, Bloglovin or just through your words of encouragement! Really appreciate you all! 

God bless you, and until the next post, have a lovely week

STYLE FIX - DENIM LOVERS ONLY!

Akwaaba!!

Calling all denim lovers everywhere, this post is for yall!

Since its invention in 1873 by Levis Strauss *pushes back nerdy glasses* denim has been a wardrobe staple for both young and old(er), guy and girl.

I love denim, due to its practicality and it is very versatile. It can be worn for a casual day out or dressed up for a classy night out. 

The only problem I have had is with denim skirts and dresses. It is always a struggle to find denim skirts which look good, but are also a decent length. However, once I find one it becomes my BFF and I find ways to work it into every outfit!

I channelled my inner denimista (yes, i make up random words at a whim lol) and threw together this outfit for a lunch date;

Leather Jacket and skirt - from Miss Selfridges, Bag - my mothers wardrobe :), Boots and denim top - emm.. purchase location unknown (had them for a while, totally forgotten where I purchased them from)!  

Scroll down to see how this good old wardrobe staple is being styled in 'the streets'.
