MAGENTA + SOFT FLOWERS


Happy Wednesday folks. My ever faithful short makes another appearance. The weather has been comfortably cool enough not to freeze and therefore the short sleeves and sleeveless tops should be making many appearances in the coming days. And the statement necklace and button earrings to add more glam to the outfit. Embracign more pattern mixing by adding the zebra stripped shoes.Have a nice day and see you on Friday.

STRIPES + MUSTARD



Happy Monday folks. I had a lot to do in the farm over the weekend. My body is aching. Even lifting a hand to dress is a task. I picked what was readily accessible for me and not even medium heels could be worn today. I therefore went for these flat open sandals.

ONE SHORT, FOUR WAYS


This short is a gift from Mom, she tailored it for me as a 2013 Christmas gift. I have since deviated from the full attire (check bottom left) and remixed and restyled it with other outfits severally. Another versatile piece that I am still exploring many ways of remixing and restyling.

MATCHY, AWOL




Happy Wednesday folks. It has been awhile. I have been having a crazy schedule, too much on my plate work wise and also lots to do at the farm. And also very early mornings and late evenings and rains. I will try to make at least 3 posts per week for now until my schedule gets less hectic.

Well, not that I have slacked in my dressing either, no way! Only that I haven't had the time to take pictures. While away I cut my hair, a mo-hawk look this time. I think it will be around for some time. That's what I love with short hair, a myriad of hair dos to try out.  Today this skirt last worn here makes a comeback.

RED + YELLOW AND NECKLACE





Happy Tuesday! I have been eying this necklace since last year. Locally, I felt that the prices are exorbitant. I am a frugal girl, always looking for a bargain. I saw it on sheinside and decided to buy it online. Now this was my first abroad online shopping and using my visa card it was as easy as snapping a finger. One week down the line and I get a call from my local post office to collect my order. I am happy and I look forward to buying more statement necklaces, red and blue in particular.

BLACK + PINK + GREY




Happy Monday folks. I have been having very early morning of late making taking pictures difficult and the weather has not been forgiving either. Too much rainfall. I will try and make the best of the days as we wait for the sunshine to come back. My Arsenal won the community shield. A perfect start to the season. Have a lovely day.

FREE SIZE



Happy Thursday! When I bought this dress, it's clearly marked maternity wear. I wanted a tent dress and this provided the best compromise for me. Though thinking of tailoring one using African prints. I have always worn this dress with a belt [here]but today I just wanted it to be free. Being so plain, I added the knitted scarf, the power of a scarf! Oh my! It just added a wow factor to the outfit. Have a lovely day.
