DENIM ON TRIBAL

Hey Lovelies, 
Yes it's Friday. We all have got big plans for the weekend and so am keep it very short and sweet.
Am still on that casual vibe and today's look comprises of an oversized lose fitting denim button down top thrown on top of a sleeveless body con tribal midi dress. These I paired them up with my grey and white canvas kicks and accessorized with shamballas, dangling brass earrings and my gladiator sunnies. Ready to take on the great weekend.

MODERN NOMAD

Hey Buds,

It's yet another weekend and am bringing in yet another dose of nautical trend this time round with a casual vibe.

Today's look comprises of a midnight blue casual maxi dress tee dress. It is long and flowy and hugs and drapes on your skin so tenderly giving you ultimate comfort . It can get a bit plain and boring if worn just like that so I threw on this sleeveless nautical striped sleeveless cropped top.

To add a pop of colour to my ensembles,I accessorized with my all time favourite maasai beaded jewellery. I am obsessed with these pieces. They tend to blend well with most of my casual looks and the maasai colours are just beautiful. For the footies, I settled for my grey canvas shoes that added on to the comfort. They got me sashaying around so freely and at some point I even forgot that I have got shoes on.

























 Did I mention that I was in a very happy mood  as I was doing this shoot and I kept falling into fits of laughter. I don't know what was making me laugh. Guess I was just happy. And also, this post would have gone up yesterday, if it wasn't for the internet failure. Today is still fine though!

PS: Today's look was inspired by the maasai culture. They are nomadic pastoralists and are mainly identified by the maasai shuka or khanga and these beaded accessories that I have on.

SKIRTING IT IN SCARF PRINTS


Happy Hump Day Loves,

How's your week coming along?

It's January, and that means its business as usual. Most of us have gone back to work already and are trying to build a working wardrobe. For those whose work environment is a bit flexible you can break from the usual plain and dull dresses and tops and opt for fun and interesting prints, fabrics and designs like what I have on today. 

Instead of the usual cotton fabric you can try chiffon during hot days and tweed for cold days. Incorporate some African vibe, bright colours, some retro vibe and ethnic pieces into your daily ensemble. 

This scarf print skirt is one of my favourite pieces in my closet now. What I like most about it is its versatility. It can easily transit from the office to an evening outing with your girls. I can also wear it to a wedding or garden party. I paired it up with a midnight blue layered studded sheer chiffon dress top with open shoulders. Open shoulders and cut outs if done well are so feminine and have a subtle sex appeal. You can check out the pix below.

HEY SAILOR!

Happy New Year Beauties,

Hope you enjoyed spending time with family and friends. I took some time off to unwind and rest and right now I feel so refreshed, ready to take on the year.

To start us off this year is this black and white monochrome look (monochrome save for the rich green and black coat). My love for anything sailor style tripled the moment I set my eyes on this black and white sailor style blouse. The ankle boots and statement coat are one of my best buys. They are those items that you end up wearing more than anything else in your closet. 

PS: Purpose to invest in statement coats and boots this year!

Check out the pix down here. Let's sail through the year in style.
