Of Rainy Days

Heeey people
As we continue with our unpredictable weather for as I write this its freaking hot outside buuuuut the day we did this shoot it was raining cats and more cats (just because: I love cats) tsk. Like really global warming, "why you gotta be so ruuuude" but we caused it so I shouldn't be complaining.

But hope the weather hasn't caught up with you and you're keeping warm or cool depending with the weather in your area/ time I'll put up this post.

This look is what I would typically wear on a cold day. Trenchies are my fav during the cold season coz they're stylish and keep you warm but if the sun happens to come out and you're in your Trench Coat and you don't like carrying it around (some can be really heavy), so you decide to keep it on(like me), my friend welcome to sweat fest. This happened to me once and after all the sweat fest I decided to remove the trench coat *(I coldn't take the heat no more), woi sweat patches everywhere so I just ended up putting it back on. Talk about embarrassment.
Lesson of the day if you're wearing a trench coat and the weather changes unexpectedly be ready for sweat fest (wooo) or carry it oooor you could find someone to help you carry it oooor check the weather forecast for the whole day(there are actual apps that could help you with that... T.G.F.Technology)

ps: this trench coat was just Ksh. 100 ;)

Until next time

Casual Chic/ Vintage idk

Hello fellow hoooomans
How are you all fairing? Hope you're well despite this weird weather patterns we're experiencing I totally blame my complaints about the extreme hot weather of December which was just MUUURDER, praying hard for that little drizzle. Lesson of the day: appreciate the present events just like that Passenger song, I know you know the song I'm talking about *breaks into song* "but you only need  the lights when its burning low, only miss the sun when it starts to snow (well rain in this case). So I should enjoy the cold, I guess. mmmh.

Today's outfit is just a casual chic vintage-ish look. If there's anything I love most is a good long, large white shirt or is it a good large long white shirt? I forget, you can pair it with anything. Brainstorm: I should do such a post (coming soon in a computer near you...).
In this look I paired it with a denim coat, black leggings and my first love: Brogues. Brogues are just the bomb, like brogues should be the national shoe (if at all there's a shoe council) I should start one mmmh. Don't get any ideas Muthoni.
And yooo my fro is back *strokes hair* "missed you baby" but unfortunately not for long because of this weather. Sigh. What to do?













The graffiti is pretty neat eyyy? 



Until next time

Let's Talk: Swimwear




Hey people of the web,
who loves swimming as much as I do(I really do) and has boring old, mainstream costumes/kinis that are just meh!! and don't bring boys to the yard? You do? Introducing the new and improved swimwear *cheesy adverts music* *lights, lights* *confetti* Oh LORD I'm so weird, tsk. I'm so sorry.
But heeey
 hope your two weeks of 2016 have been bomb, keeping up with your resolutions as discussed in the previous post lol,with no troubles whatsoever.Well I'm already struggling with "mine": posting regularly, as you can see.
So today I'll be talking swimwear. We all know when it comes to swimming, swimwear is such a big deal especially for us women mainly because you know for guys its just throwing on a short or those speedo things, haah and they're all set. On the other hand we need much more coverage, unless you're a skinny dipper and sometimes buying costumes that you love can be/is expensive and tedious (I should know *sad emoji*).
What if I told you, you can get pretty awesome, locally designed, custom made swimwear, that are authentic, unique and comfy for all body types, because guuuuuurl/ boooooiiiii that's what FOA Swimwear is offering.They have locally designed Swimwear from one piece, bikinis, monokinis, high waist kinis (I don't think they're called that though) but you get the point, no? refer to pictures lol.
The collection I'll be featuring today is from their "Feel Like a Queen" Collection cos you know, we're all queens unless you're a man then.....
what I love most about this collection is their simplicity, African feel to it, stylish and the fact that they are custom made, no more stress of buying tiny or extra large swimsuits. yaaay *fireworks*.
Hope you guys will like the collection as much as I do and if you'd be interested in purchasing some or get more information you can reach FOA at foa.swimwear@gmail.com to order/ inquire.
For more designs and info follow them on Instagram and Facebook

  1. THE BIKINIS



2. THE HIGH-WAIST



3.THE MONO-KINIS (CUT-OUT)



PS: no you CANNOT wear the head wraps in the water. They're pretty cool though lol.

Until next time

SOML: No Resolutions!!



Heeey I know its been like two months since I posted something and I have no good excuse that I can defend myself with ,I have a laziness problem unfortunately.
 Hope you've been well, staying fly cruising, on fleek,  (and other slang sayings that mean good) hoping your holidays were as good as mine, getting fat just because. I think December should be renamed to the ultimate_cheat_month-mber cos you eat anything and everything... and when January comes people (including myself) run to the gym, refer to this meme, tsk quite sad. Kudos to the people who eat like elephants and stay as thin as a rail (curse my active friends) *sigh*.

Aside from that, it's 2016, like what the heck happened to 2015, just the other day we were singing along to() in () and suddenly its 2016. I guess its high time for resolutions, new year new me things you know, I'll try stay fit, drink less, save more, buy that funky phone/ tab/ laptop, travel more and before you know it its December 31st and you wonder where the year went, then you remember the resolutions you made 12 months back and then you stretch them for another year and the cycle repeats itself (true story). 
So this year I decided not to make any resolutions (or rather just keep them to myself so that if bad comes to worse no one will judge me for being reckless and breaking my resolutions). That makes sense? yes? well at least it does in my head, or I'm I just too lazy to make some (could be). Let's say "maybe" one of my "imaginary" resolution is to post more, and be active on this platform so if it doesn't work out, do not judge, I said "maybe"and "imaginary" and notice the quotes... lol just kidding. Winging it.
But for those with resolutions, please try and keep them til mid/quad year if December seems too far (but persevere, YOU CAN DO IT *insert Shia's voice*) and for those with "maybe"/ "imaginary" resolutions such as mine, good for you, We Are One.
All in all have yourselves an awesome 2016 full of cotton candy clouds and gum drop rains.
Sorry today I don't have any outfit photos (because of who I am: lazy) and so I'll leave these photos of me tying my hair with a piece of string, just because.

Until next time
