What I Wore | Grecian Pink

The warm weather for me means that my dresses can finally come out to play, showcasing their beauty without being swamped by coats and scarves. This dress makes me think of Greece. Its overall style is quite Grecian, don't you think? I tried to bring back old school fashion blogger vibes by colour blocking it with these suede turquoise wedges. But you know me, some black had to feature somewhere to calm my soul so I added a black statement necklace and handbag.

I've really been enjoying the warmer weather not so much the dehydration and extra dry skin and hair that comes with it. Last year when there seemed to be no respite from the cold season, I could only dream of January (who does that? lol!) and the sun and getting all my dresses out to play. Granted, I wore this in December when it finally started getting warm, hence the Christmas decorations but it's still season appropriate. 

All in all, I'm pretty happy with this purchase. It's one of those dresses that I know I will keep for a long time.

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 ...

Red Carpet Style: 2016 SAG Awards

Laverne Cox Among my favourite celebrity outfits at this year's SAG Awards, a mix of black and white had to feature. This colour combination continues to be an all time favourite of mine. I also fell in love with ankle-length dresses worn by Giulliana Rancic and Julia Louis-Dreyfus. They provided a much needed break from the floor-length gowns that are commonplace at awards shows. Enjoy the rest of the photos below and do share your favourites in the comments below.
