PEPLUM LOVE

Hey Everyone
Happy Friday to everyone. I am so excited about the weekend. I am not planning to do much. My job is pretty intense with a lot of road travel so by the time the weekend rolls around I am completely beat. So basically my Fridayevening plan is a date with James Bond and the sofa.

In this blog I am in in peplum top that i really love. I have always been really cautious about the peplum trend just cause I worry about my body type. I try to avoid anything that adds bulk around the hips and thighs. I got this Peplum top in Zara and was pleasantly surprised by how good it looked on me. Tell me what you think about this look. I find that the top is quite slimming and flattering on my frame. As usual I take my photos in one of the rural health facilities that I work in.

Style in the Village

Hey everyone
the last few months have been extremely eventful. I moved from England back to Kenya where i got a job in health research. My jobs takes to some of the most remote areas of Kenya where I am working in health research and its very involving and demanding. Since coming home and facing the realities of working in rural areas my new challenge has been to remain true to my fashion loving self while at the same time being culturally sensitive to the rural communities that I work in, which is not a mean feat. In this blog I am wearing a simple black dress that i got on sale at HnM with flat pointed shoes and fake mulberrybag that I got during my trip to China. The necklace is a clay beaded necklace i got from kazuri you can check out there stuff from this website www.kazuri.com. I like how it looks like pearls makes the whole outfit really classy dont you think?
