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.

i2s Faves: Grammy Awards 2018

India Arie The informality of the Grammy Awards red carpet gives a much needed break from all the glam looks in the other award shows this time of year. I love all the glam looks, but I also loved pant suits. Anna Kendrick's vintage style suit cemented my desire to add a few suits to my closet this year. Ashanti Chrissy Tiegen & John Legend Anna Kendrick Eve Alessia Cara Janelle Monae Ne-Yo Common Donald Glover Zayn Malik Big Sean And of course, I had to include Beyonce and Jay Z who didn't walk the red carpet but were my all time favourites both at the Grammys and at the Roc Nation brunch.

CELEB STYLE FRIDAY: Of the Runway and White

Cate Blanchette Hi all!!! Do you sometimes find it impossible to translate a look you saw in a magazine, blog or fashion show into every day life? When I saw this photo of Cate Blanchette wearing this mixed print peplum top by Peter Piloto I was so jazzed by how easy she made it. The top was originally paired with patterned pants on the runway but she wore it with a simple black pencil skirt. For me this is the easiest translation of a runway outfit made to suit your personal taste and needs. Another celebrity whose outfit has stood out to me in the past week is Angelina Jolie. I love all white although with the red soil in Nairobi I always have second thoughts about putting on an all-white outfit. Wait a minute... I just had a brainwave!! Why not try it on Sunday?? Hahahaha I think I just might. Look out for an outfit post next week!! In other news, I have finally launched my online store (access it here ). It only has a few pieces but others will be added in the co...

What I wore: Feminine silhouettes

Over the years, I've noticed that my personal style has evolved. Apart from my preference for comfort, I've learned to love more feminine pieces, so much so that I now prefer dresses over trousers. Maybe this has to do with the fact that it is blistering hot right now and just the thought of putting on a constricting pair of jeans at the moment makes me feel like I will melt. Or, I've been influenced, haha! You see, baby girl loves herself a dress or two. So she might have had a hand in getting me to wear more dresses than trousers. Anyway, my preferred silhouette when it comes to dresses is bodycon or a-line/skater-style. They're super easy to style, in formal or casual shoes, and can be worn for every occasion from the office, to lunch with the girls to a night out. This dress checks all those boxes. Although I tend to wear it for smarter functions, I can see myself dressing it down should the need arise. I'd like to say that styling it like a skirt like I did he...
