Heels and Pastels

Heeey my people
Hope you're all good and life is taking yáll good. And the weather decided to change again!!! I give up complaining about it over and over, so we take what we get. *sigh*

Today's outfit is basically a pastel colored suit, I think the color  is what drew me to this suit. I'm not one to wear bright colors because I'm shy AF and I don't like attention directed towards me (unless there's a crush in the premises, Beyoncé Formation mode activated hahaa I kid), so the safest way to avoid this for me is to wear the dullest colors  I can find. But I shall work on that, trying to add some color in my closet, not getting rid of my shyness (team forever shy).
I paired the suit with a white top and some heels. Really not a big fan of heels but it seemed like the right choice for the outfit (courtesy of mum).
I remember there was an actual time I was completely in love with heels, like heels were my bread and butter, like heeeeeeels were bomb, theeeen just like that it ended like how do people walk around in heels for a whole day?? Please tell me? I was literally dying while doing this shoot which was less than 15 minutes and you'd think I had climbed a mountain in them, (what went wrong heels? I thought we were lovers) Yes I'll be those people who will be constantly in flats(brogues) at work.  I shall not subject my calves to torture. Unless they invent weightless heels then I shall MAYBE (the key word is ''maybe'') consider wearing them.
May hair is back to an afro. All I did was was my hair, Bantu Knotted it using lots of coconut oil (remember coconut oil is your best friend) stayed with them overnight then undid them and that was the result. No stress whatsoever.












PS: the suit was thrifted lol

Until next time

Jumpsuit or Nah?

Heeey peeps
Its February we're finally done with the month of broke_ness (pardon my English) or as we Kenyans prefer: NJANUARY, unless you're a millionaire and you do not associate with being broke in January (one day Muthoni, one day...) good for you. But for us common men we are pretty excited, after indulging in festivities forgetting that the new year has months of its own tsk, but February is like the Clark Kent to our Smallville, the Waiyaki to our River Between etc. Yaani our hero.
(BTW have you heard Sia's new album *insert fire emoji*? jamming to it as I rant).
 Buuuut also February comes with its cons: Valentine's day. Its really a touchy touchy topic especially when it comes to the singletons. Look on the bright side my darlings, no high expectations on that perfect night/day and BONUS It'll be on a Sunday, you won't have to leave the house (assuming you won't be working) and see guys holding hands, wearing red (people still do that?) and PDA left, right and centre, cursing that ex you left or left you and you fall into a deep "depression" of fatty foods!! Take heart my brother/sister  its gonna be alright...
I didn't help much? I'm sorry, you have a few days to get a bae. Up your game; I'll be your cheerleader lol

Enough of that let's get on with our post. Today's look is... before I say take 5 seconds to guess whether its a Jumpsuit or nah your time starts now *elevator music* mmmmhhhmm *drum rolls*..... its a..... no its not a jumpsuit its actually a suit (or rather pants and a top). Bet you didn.t expect that or did you? I shall never know.
So with this look I paired the alleged Jumpsuit with a black trench coat, my loves BROGUES, a brown clutch bag (which is actually a sling bag with replaceable straps), a brown belt (which was holding these pants which are super big on my waist) tied into a bow and ombre lips.
For my hair, since its at that awkward bob-length, I decided to just do a crown braid... not my best braid but whatevvs...I tried my best mama *sob*
This look can be worn literally anywhere; to work, a meeting, a date, night out etc.











ps; this outfit is under ksh 1000 excluding the trench... because thrifting is just bomb.

until next time
