Fun facts about the Parliament: The open & inviting architecture has vast glazed facades which enable visitors to look over the shoulders of Members of Parliament at work in their offices. It's exterior constructed between 1884 & 1894 by the architect Paul Wallot, has remained largely unchanged. It is energy efficient in several ways such as, the cone-shaped funnel that extends from the cupola of the building into the plenary chamber reflects glare-free daylight into the chamber through...

With Valentine's Day just around the corner, you will notice a lot of 'Red' popping up everywhere (outfits, decorations, recipes, gift ideas, flowers), so I thought to myself, why not do a 'Valentine's Day' inspired outfit. I brought out my minimal red heels & one of my favourite Ankara Print dresses which has some red prints on it.

It's unbelievable how mothers seem to always have the right advice to give when you absolutely need it: Friends are like running water (when I tell her about a fading friendship).

To be honest, designing & making these African inspired evening gowns for the Miss Kenya Germany Beauty Pageant 2016 was quite a big challenge for me. In as much as I love my prints & bright colours, I always try & tone down on my creations, make them into simple outfits that do not 'shout' in any way & can easily be combined with other pieces already available in any woman's wardrobe.

Am back after a long Hiatus, but hope that you all had a wonderful Christmas. We had a good one, spent some quality time with loved ones and are still enjoying the Holidays. Schools closed a week before Christmas & that meant that I had to stop working to stay home with the Kids until they go back in January. That essentially means that everything stopped, my business, orders, new outfits & hence the lack of new posts on the Blog & my other social media sites. Am now in fulltime...
