Snow on Chrome

That has been a very short week!

Who does not like the anticipation in the air on a Friday Morning?

Today my "Snow on .........." outfit posts come to an end.I have had a lot of fun turning my wardrobe upside down for this and it was totally worth it.

I want to say thank you to my little Sissy for agreeing to take the pics.

 

White just like black makes the perfect base to put together the perfect outfit.You can never go wrong with a monochrome combination if your life was dependent on it.

This midi skirt is comfy and stylish and compliments the outfit. This is more of a day look that can turn into a night look by switching the sneaker wedges for killer red or blue heels.

I really hope you had as much fun as I had doing this feature.

My lovely people this is by far my best outfit combo.

I am obsessed with animal prints and the Christian Loubitoni  inspired pointy heels are just killer. I added a twist of the floppy hat to give it an edge. Hope you enjoy this!!!

 

Don't you just love him!!!

Snow on Royalty

Good Morning Kenya. Let the Monday/Tuesday blues begin.

My choice today is HAPPINESS even though I am seated on my desk and I have not done my make up but what the hell!!! I have a healthy life and I am tapping into the power of positive thinking.

It has taken a call at 7am and bumping into an old freind to realise that even when you feel that God is giving you the silent treatment and the side eye He still cares a whole bunch.

Thank you Lord for working in the silence.

 Who knew that you can pair up a peplum top and a maxi skirt? This outfit combo was just a by the way as I was fishing for one of my other items. It's really simple and elegant if your meeting him for the second date or for Sunday brunch or even lunch. It screams conservative but also daring enough to put this two statement pieces together.

The gold belt for me is a touch of royalty because guess what I am a princess. Always has been always will be!

Snow on Pink

Let's just skip  to the part where I apologize for going M.I.A and say that life handed me lemons in form of a crazy  job and I reached for the Tequila and salt and now I am nursing a serious hangie but almost out of it.

Happy Easter people!!

I am back maybe with a bang and I will let you be the judge of that.

I love the color white. (Yes for the record I will still follow a guy dressed in all white down the street)

I got this white peplum top awhile ago and as I was going through "our wardrobes" read (My wardrobe and my sisters, did I say thank God from sisters), I digress, I was like I think I should do a little something with this snow white top.So for the next couple of days I shall show you  how to werk this top into different looks.

On to my first look!

 As I was picking out this outfit, I figured a little matchy matchy would not hurt anybody. Hence the pink belt and the pink skirt and the nude bag and nude shoe.

If you have noticed I am sort of a functional shopper. Yeah I splurge once in awhile but of late, I have been doing more functional pieces that can mix and match with diverse things in "our wardrobes."

Thoughts?

Be back tomorrow folks!!

Nairobi Fashion Market 2014

My people my people. I have missed you so much walalalalala!!

I have been keeping well, busy with work but as always keeping you peeps in mind. The lovely girls and I were able to attend the Nairobi Fashion Market  last weekend and I must admitted I was not as enthusiastic considering the last one was a total absolute let down.

That is the good thing about not having any exceptions because my oh my!!! did we shop. I got some really cool buys and my fave was this skirt that was sent from heaven. I shall be styling it soon. Many ladies ask me where and how I shop, I wish I had tagged you all along. Nelly of Nairobi's Fashion Geek check out her blog (love this girl) were just screaming from stall after stall.

 This happens to be the best picture of the day. Selfie with a Canon  beat that Mutua Matheka hehehe!!

I am that girl who wears a dress and ngomas ( as my mother calls them!)

 This dress I found at "priced to go"section of Mr. Price in town. Yeah believe it or not it was a steal. I paired it up with converse and hang a small tiny blue sling bag to go. Tip: I love my accessories but this dress had so much going with the floral print so I figured a watch and some dangling earrings and I was good to go "hunting."
Always keep it simple.

 Dress- Mr Price

Converse-  Classy Rubber Shoes

White Watch- Gifted

Blue Sling Bag-Toi Market

I may have found a "girlfriend" for our Cappuccino, isn't she adorable?

Talk about pushing the envelope with this shoe! Its bold and it has spikes. I think it looks lovely on the display.

These guys were selling some expensive jewellery, 100 % Brass lets just say we shall stick to Maasai Market thank you very much.

MOCHA CHICA!

Chome on Yellow

Its me again blabbing about God knows what, but hey y'all still here reading this so it must mean what? "I am awesome!!!"

I am most definitely my number one fan. I learnt this from an early age that you gotta pat yourself on the back every so often and tell yourself that your super awesome.

I call it "The power of speaking life,good health and prosperity" into your own life.

Sometimes people are too busy with the hustle and bustle of life to stop and compliment you on whatever your doing but since you know how far you have come you just need to do it for youself.

It does pretty good number on your self esteem and gives you life juice to keep going.

I found this stripped top while I was cleaning out my closet. (sale will be going up soon). 

Y'all know I am a sucker for black and white. I am potential rehab material when it comes to monochrome, It is bad. 

Well I paired it up with with white pants. White happens to be one of my favorite colors. It's so bad that I can follow a guy down the street if he is dressed in all white, you know the ( white muscle shirt and white line pants and white loafers kind or the Tall "Abdi" in a  Sparkling white kanzu ) yeah those ones. 

I wore a thrifted yellow blazer which I folded the long sleeves of the top over the blazer's arms to make sort of a boyfriend jacket look and threw on the nude bag and shoes to finish the simple look.

Fresh and New

I am back

I know I have overstayed my Christmas break but yeah yeah, I woke up and it was February... how about that! I was having a total bloggers burnout. I needed the much deserved break from all this. Well we are back and we are bigger and better.

 Mocha Chica is one year this month.

What better way to say Happy Birthday than to "remodel". 

Whilst I bumming, I discovered the reason I have not mojo to blog is because my blog just looks so plain and simple. Something that brings me so much joy was sucking the life out of me. So I changed it up a bit. A tweak there, some re branding here, some color in all the right places. I must admit the art director did  a really really good partly because he is very talented. His work sells. So if you ever need something artsy halla at me a ma hook you up.

As I was putting together this outfit I realized  how much my style has grown. There is much in my closet that I do not wear and I shall be clearing out and having a super sale so that y'all have a piece of me wherever you go hehehe!

 I am loving the A-line things. They twirl and they are ooooh so girly. The heels are my best buy this year.(okay up until I get something else you know me). I know it has been two months but that is so far along in the year. They are Zara inspired and on this season of Single Ladies Lisa Raye killed it in this babies. The dots, the huge polkas just make the world go round literally.
