What do sheers, denim, bows and animal print have in common...you would ask....well, this post is the answer. I got on a lil bit of everything I love. A combination of playful cuteness and edginess defines this outfit and today I will let the pictures tell the story. The chained bow is a DIY....Whats your take....lemmie know what you think below!

Happy new week my good people, My name is Maureen and I am obsessed with stripes....I seriously cannot keep my hands off. I have blogged about these pants before here and this time round I decided to combine it with neon accents.

A simple luminous green blouse seemed to be my perfect choice...then I added little pops of neon pink with the earrings and the heart shaped purse

Finished it off with these cobalt blue platforms with the matching bib necklace and my lovely animal print geeks and a red bold lip.

What do you think of my outfit....drop me a line below!

Kisses,

Hallo fashionettes, Is it cold or cold....whaaat! I feel like I have frost fingers as I write this. What a way to start the week but oh well....its inevitable. I wore this outfit one of those rare sunny days we have been blessed with, so do not think am in Miami or something....Am very much in niarobi.

I love this skirt....I do not wear it much but the few times I do...i make sure I make a statement out of the outfit. I decided to do a little matchy matchy on it by adding a touch of gold to black.

                                 I'm obsessed with neon blue polish.... sigh

Finished it off with these distressed gold peep toes and voila! that was my midas touch.

Hallo fashionettes...been a long minute right? Well my camera decided to die on me so I had to sit it out for a few days till i got a rescue. Anywho I've missed blogging and I pray there will be no more hiatus....so lets get to business....I have been meaning to try out the print on print trend and I got the chance yesterday as it was very sunny and summer-ish

I was on my thrifting escapades when I saw this skirt....this chic was trying it on and oh my....was I wishing she would not buy it. So after a gruesome 30 minutes she finally let it go and trust me I jumped on it so fast the girl was puzzled......c'mon if you love shopping yo know what am talking about. The polka dot is so playful...it was a perfect fit and it was midi....what more could a girl ask for.

I decided to take a fash risk and combine it with this animal print tee....I love its fit and its so ideal for the hot weather without being too sheer....I find it a lil' bit flirty.

Basically...I went just for a simple tee with a skirt....Its amazing how much print can change an outfit. That's why I went for a solid hot pink pump to break the busy outfit and carried a white envelope clutch.

I love playing around with this brooch and this time round I minimised a very bareback tee...I held it together to make some vavavum out of it and make it more comfortable for me to wear it....as I am very conscious about revealing too much skin.

If there is a trend that is inescapable, its denim! Thats where I bring in the denim vest, this trendy piece is versatile, flattering, and adds edge to even the girliest pieces in our wardrobes. Thats why I decided to pair it up with a turquoise green pleated skirt and color blocked it with a hot pink tank

I went for  this faded, sun-kissed light blue that looks great with just about every other color, especially since my outfit is color blocked to give it a color clash rather than a match. I love the back at the back....the tiny bows are just soooo cute.
 

                                                I adore pleats....they so flirty and fun

                               I accessorised the vest with a silver neck piece and yellow loops

                                 Finished it off with these sexy leopard print booties

Of late i have been spotting these button up shirts and aint getting obcessed with them. But aren't they just off the hook

Well it not everyday you catch me in flatties but a gal gots to give them mean heels a break sometimes. I totally like these pointed brown patent ones  especially when am out and about or running errands and want to look chic.

By now u must know how i love animal prints, this one was sheer and quite subtle than most i usually do. I paired it with these high waisted woolen shorts and added this butterfly cobalt blue stretch belt.

I dressed up the shirt with this multi colored bib necklace to add a pop of color to the outfit and finally carried my croc skin leather bag. Oh and my geeks for the definition of the geeky look i was goin for.

                              The flatties have a distressed bronze tip

This is one of my favorite formal looks that i have done so far. I have an obsession for animal print and my friends can attest to that. So this skirt was a great addition to my closet. At first i had planned it to be part of a party ensemble but since i have quite out of the party scene for a while, i decided to do a day outfit with it

I paired it up with this green tie neck blouse, i really liked the color contrast so i added the white blazer.

I added the blazer to invoke some seriousness to the outfit and maintain a serious but sexy look

I threw in a crimson red envelope clutch and matching eaarings to add a pop of color to the outfit. Then finished it off with a bold lip.

                              Not forgetting the baby pink atmosphere pumps.

       I did some few pics without the jacket and neverthelessless liked it too

I decided to break the colors by adding an animal print scarf, the green skinny belt and my table cloth red and white heels and my fave straw hat to give a bohemian feeling

 MY TIP:

• Roll them pants up and wear them loose but not baggy since they are not boyfriend pants

• Opt for flat brogues for a boyish vibe or vamp it up with sexy heels just like i did.
