Currently Craving...

Wedges!!
Currently oogling at these Zahara pair from Shoe Dazzle

Happy Weekend Everyone!! Its grey gloomy and rainy outside and Christmas is juuust around the corner. I believe I have been a good girl and thus Santa, this is what I want for Christmas :-) LoL!-Digress.

There is something ultra flattering about wedge shoes. whether you are tall, petite short, curvy, weges just have a way of bringing out the best in every woman. These shoes are so versatile and can be worn to work, for lunch and dinner dates, to the club, the beach and as well, for errand runs. Another thing I love about wedges is their flat base, which means the pressure on the feet is evenly distributed making them convinient for all day, anyday wear.

Its all about The Blouse



A quintessence of all things female, the blouse is the ultimate go to item in one's closet for when you wish to be all femme and womanly. It is a versatile piece that can be worn across different occasions  to present different moods and expressions: From the formal setting of the workplace, a lounge or bar, dinner, shopping, exhibition and gallery viewing, a blouse is simply a must have for every girl's closet.
Recently, I have come to appreciate the blouse in my closet and I am keen on stacking up on these simple yet chic item of wear. I wasn't always a girly- girl and I think my sub conscious is compensating for lost 'girl-time' :o. Currently, I am into the ruffle top and neck tie blouses for the office, they are so elegant and come off sophisticated!

Luxury Is...

 I stumbled upon this quote going through a Facebook page:
"My biggest luxury is to not have to justify myself to anyone."

Small Space Interior Design

I wish to dedicate this to my friend Lenny.

Living in Nairobi today you are forced to do with confined space as apartments continue to shrink in size with population increase. The challenge thus becomes how to keep a neat small space free of clutter, without compromising on necessity, comfort, and style.



My Cravings Basket

This section contains the items of wear I am currently ogling over.


Dorothy Perkins pants




The flare is BACK! And oh, how I cannot wait to get me some of these. I first spotted the trends come back early in April during the Tory Burch summer (I think)collection of 2011. These pants give off an air of elegance and sophistication that few apparel match.

Here's to the Weekend

Its Friday! HOORAY!!

If you are like me who wakes up before dawn through the week to go to work/school, Friday is always a day welcome. Weekends are a chance to rejuvenate catch up up on some sleep ;), perhaps meet up with friends for some chat and sips, laze with someone special, the list is endless.

After a week of wearing formal outfits, i try to do casual ensembles for the weekend. here are some of my weekend looks:




Outfit #1: The Smart Casual Look
This is my dress down Friday look to the office. I feel like it is a neat transitioning look into the weekend and is appropriate for a drink up with friends after work or a simple catch up session in the bar. I tend to dress up in a cute blouse and skinny's. The blouse makes the outfit more of feminine while retaining the formals of Friday. Add on booties to complete the serious yet ready to hit the club look.

Outfit #2: Sassy Girl Out in Town
This look is my Saturday look. it is comfortable while still retaining femininity through the soft material and floral print. Paired with leggings and coloured flats for for a casual and relaxed look yet very girly, it is the ideal for shopping, lunch with girlfriends, cozy lunch date with Mr. Man among others. I have recently taken to Scarves as the main outfit accessories. A scarf is the ultimate feminine piece in an outfit and with those you seldom go wrong.

Outfit #3: Tomboy
For days when you simply refuse to dress up, the boyfriend jeans with a fitting knit top are best. This look is for those errand Saturdays when you may not afford to keep it together. Works well for catching the Saturday games too! the scarves and pretty flats again, help you retain a touch of the girly side in the man ensemble.

Have a Great Weekend!!
