HOW TO: Go Denim Less During the Weekend

I know many people say that during the weekend you should unwind and relax and this is reflected in their choice of dress. You store away your suits and pull out the denim. But what if you are tired of wearing blue jeans every Saturday or Sunday??? You can turn to khaki!! And just because it's the weekend doesn't mean that you throw your style out the window!!!! You can be casual yet stylish!!!
I wore this outfit last Saturday when I had a lunch date with one of my very close friends.I've worn this outfit before almost exactly as it is but I wasn't quite pleased with the turn out. So I decided to give it another go and tweak it here and there to see if it will be interesting and I must say I loved it.
I paired my army bubble skirt with a white t-shirt and my mustard coloured sweater. Then I added chocolate brown leggings because it was a little chilly in the morning. Adding leggings to a shorter skirt is a great way to transition your summer clothes into winter.



 To accessorize I wore my black ankle boots that have become a wardrobe staple!!! These shoes are so comfortable!! I can walk in them the whole day and not get sore feet. I added my black belt to add some interest to the outfit, and carried my metallic clutch. I finally got something metallic!!! I'm so happy. Anyway, moving on, for jewellery I chose my black chandelier earrings, cream coloured bangles, a black ring and black bead necklace.










While walking in town it suddenly hit me, why is everybody wearing blue jeans??!!! Thus I came up with a theme for this post. I think I'll dye mine a different colour. Blue jeans are too common.

Army bubble skirt: India
White t-shirt: India
Mustard sweater: India
Brown leggings: India

Five Books I Want To Read in 2019

My love for reading books has always been bubbling beneath the surface and it has finally blown over. I've not always been a great reader. To make matters worse, motherhood has given me even less time for leisure activities like reading. However, I started pushing myself a bit and now I make time to read.  I find it a good use of time to read while in the matatu, when I take myself on a lunch date or when my eyes need a rest from constantly staring at a screen.  This year, I have decided to challenge myself a bit more by documenting the books I have read and loved as well as have a running list of books that I would love to read. Below are five books that I am keen to read this year. 1. Memoirs of a Geisha 2. Becoming by Michelle Obama 3. An Edited Life by Anna Newton 4. Reasons to stay alive by Matt Haig 5. Heart and hustle by Patricia Bright Which books do you think I should add to my reading list? Thank you for stopping by....

HOLLYWOOD INSPIRATION: Neon Dress

I'm a huge fan of bold colours, so you can guess how excited I am about the neon trend. When I saw Jennifer Lopez in this neon yellow dress and pink heels I was so happy to realize that this is a very easy outfit to redo.  Image via Yahoo Here's how I would style this dress.  I chose this other dress because I love the cut and I thought I would style it as well.

FEELING GREEN

Hi all!! I hope your week is coming along great. I wore this outfit on Sunday to church. It's not something that I would normally wear to church but I had really missed this dress and it was brought home after I had to leave it behind in India due to excess luggage.  I paired it with black leggings because stockings seem to make some of my dresses ride when I'm walking due to static. These chunky ankle boots were my accessory of choice together with this scarf which I wore specifically to hide the cartoon on my t-shirt that was peeping out.   This is my failed attempt at making a turban. I couldn't figure out what to do with the edges of the scarf so I just made my usual band. Outfit Details: Dress: Kamla Nagar Market, India Boots: gift from mum Handbag and neck-scarf: mum's Scarf as headband: from my sister Bracelets: gifts Earrings: gift  I carried this bag on Saturday and I didn't have tome to change it so I just decided it woul...
