Boyfriend Jeans + Mary-janes

As you might have realized, I am a huge fan of denim. I don't own that many pieces which means I am always looking for new ways to wear those pieces that I own. These boyfriend jeans became a favourite once Elly was born. I have always wanted to dress them up with a pair of heels but when I have to run errands or make deliveries for my shop, I really don't want to be in heels. But sometimes style overrides practicality. I opted for my nude Mary-Janes to dress up my jeans and sweater outfit. A navy sling bag and loop earrings completed my outfit.

Have you tried boyfriend jeans? How else would you style them? Do share in the comments below.

Style Challenge Day 6: Wear A Bold Print

 Hi guys. Phew! Last week was so crazy I couldn't keep up with everything, case in point my 30 day style challenge and weekly video. But I just had to get back to it this week. For day 6, I had to put on a bold print. I don't know if you have noticed but I am not very big on prints. Every time I shop, I automatically go for solid colours and if I pick prints it will inevitably be either stripes or florals. So for this challenge, I opted for a more abstract print. I love the colours of this tunic-style top. The chiffon fabric is light and breezy making it perfect for the warmer weather. I paired it with off-white skinny jeans and some beaded sandals. These sandals are a cross between flip-flops and sliders. I haven't worn such sandals in years so it was nice having a change from my usual shoes. I do believe however, that I need to open up a little to bolder prints and consequently add them to my closet.  Outfit Details: Top and sandals: Gift Jeans: Thrifted (G...

WHAT I WORE: Fashion Trance 2012

 Hi all!! Happy new month. I hope you are as excited as I am for the holidays. Last week, I won a pair of VIP tickets from Nancie Mwai to attend the Fashion Trance event held at the Mamba Village, Nairobi. I was so excited to have worn. I think this is the first giveaway I've ever won!!!  I went for a practical yet chic look because the weather was so uncertain. I chose my purple denim trousers, a sequin top and wedges. I carried my trench coat because I knew I would be reaching the house very late.   Because sequins can be a little too much, I kept my jewellery simple by wearing my ethnic Indian chandelier earrings which I absolutely love, a polka dot bracelet and purple ring. I had wanted to carry a clutch but then I realized that it wouldn't fit all the things I wanted to carry so I opted for this handbag. Oh and I finally got the first edition of my business cards. I'm so excited, I'd been meaning to get them done for so long that on Friday I ...

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.
