I hope you have all been well, chasing your dreams and getting closer to achieving them.
I recently began my final internship for my Undergrad and to be honest it has me a little disorientated. What I hate most though is the cold that has struck so unexpectedly, has me wondering what July will be like.
Am honestly glad I have this blog to channel my energy into because I'd probably go crazy with all the voices in my head right now. What to do after school is my biggest dilemma though.....am at cross roads and I just hope to get through it with a sane mind, without hurting anyone.
Today's post features this black skirt that I've had for ages. I love the modesty that comes with it, and how easy it is to style. On this occasion, I chose to dress it down with just a bralette crop top, doll shoes and a floral Kimono.
Floral prints can be overwhelming, but with a neutral background they stand out. Also chose to go a notch down with the accessories, loop earrings, beaded bracelets and my all time favorite owl necklace.
With the current cold weather, you can swap the chiffon kimono for one in a heavier fabric...woolen is a good choice. If you don't have one, you can also pick out other warm cove-ups in your closet that work for you. A colored blazer or leather jacket would be my next choice.
Have a good read loves.
This owl is still getting me all mushed up with it's cute little eyes. You can get yours from BORN PRETTY STORE at only 1.83 dollars...that's less than Kshs 200.....yep, you can read that again and still give me wide eyes or a jaw drop...I see you.
Kimono - Thrifted. Kshs 50
Brallete - Thrifted. Kshs 50
Skirt - Gikomba. Kshs 50
Shoes - Thrifted. Kshs 300
Necklace - Born Pretty Store
Bracelets - Masai Mara
That's it for today munchkins.
Have a lovely weekend.
