Style Challenge Day 12 - Belt Your Scarf

As I type this I can't help but marvel at the brightness outside. The sun is out! Nairobi has been cold, dreary and wet over the last two weeks or so. I was so caught off-guard by the sudden lower temperatures. I couldn't believe that I needed to bring out my coats, sweaters and scarves one more time before 2016 ends. 

I tend to wear a lot of black, come rain or shine. But even amidst all that black, I like to add pops of colour and that's just what I did to this all black outfit when I added this colour-blocked silk scarf and green belt. I don't think I wear green enough. It's not a bad colour especially when given the chance to be the stand out piece.
Belting my scarf like the challenge called for, demanded the use of a bigger scarf. I have seen bloggers use Maasai blankets as well for this and that is something that I would love to try as well.

Would you belt your scarf instead of wrapping it around your neck? Do share in the comments below.

CELEBRITY FASHION: ALL WHITE

 Hi all!! Lately, I've been seeing a lot of celebrities looking fashionable and chic in all white outfits. I developed a love for wearing this daring colour (or non-colour for some) and I just could not resist going online and looking at for my favourite celebrities and how they wore white from head to toe. In the photo above, Jennifer Hudson rocked a white dress, white heels and a classic red lip, a look that is very achievable on any budget. Other Ways to Wear all White J-Lo wore a peplum dress in all white, a look that I think is as dreamy as Angelina Jolie's a few months back.  Wearing an outfit in one colour can be daunting, but like Nicole Ritchie, keep it simple and you will do no wrong.  For those of you who may have a chance to experience the red carpet, an all white gown will be a nice contrast to the red, making you stand out, just as Taylor Swift did. It is also possible to rock an all white pant suit and look as fashionable as ev

WHAT I WORE: SHEER FLORALS

Hi all! I had a job interview today and there was no power at home following a huge storm yesterday, so I opted for this sheer floral dress.  This dress is one of my two go to outfits when I don't have time to iron or in today's case, when we don't have electricity in the morning. As I'm having a migraine, I'll just let the photos speak for themselves. I discovered that a red lip makes a huge difference to a simple outfit. Have you tried to wear a red lip?
