I got a confession to make, I love me some rugby.....and its not about the well built men running around with an egg shaped ball (okay who am I kidding) its a plus though *wink. When I want to unwind, its the surest way of letting go. So this Saturday, I was at the RFUEA grounds rooting for my team, which eventually lost *sad sigh* but too much fun to dampen my spirits.
I was looking for something uber comfortable, stylish and still girly at the same time. So, i opted for this stripped maxi, fitting and with a pencil hem. I always find that black and white stripes always go well with bold hues, hence the edgy red flatties and the neon green skinny belt.
For a summer chic look, I added the straw fedora and the vintage chanel hobo cross body bag and finish it off with a bold lip.
My accessories were few; i love this hello kitty pendant....its sooo cute, a cross ring and tiny neon pink earrings.

                                  THE NAUTICAL STRIPPED HI-LO TOP

Lately, I have been obsessed with cropped tops especially the hot sweaty days. I wore this look for a simple day going shoe shopping with my gals, It was versatile and incase it got chilly, all I had to do was button up the denim vest I had on top. I grabbed my fedora straw hat, sun glasses and these leather capped cute flatties with clear sides (read,my new obsession). I am not much of a leggings fan but I decided to do these with a simple look.
                             THE HOT PINK HI-LO TOP

My second look, I wore for just day in town with my siz, I went for a lil' color blocking and cargo pants. The shoes, I got in my shopping escapade mentioned above...I hesitated buying it but my gal...Jules convinced and I owe her one for that, I loved the tiers and the ankle bootish look it has. I then carried my oversized floral purse.
 
Hello fashionettes, this is an outfit I wore on Friday for my pal's graduation luncheon. I got this skirt first and had to dress it in my mind and by chance I got this stripped dress and thought....it was the perfect combo for the occassion.
I went for a lil' color blocking with the crimson platforms, emerald green midi thigh skirt and blue stripped dress inside then cinched it with a burgundy obi belt.
                             It became chilly....so I had to have my blazer on!
 
                                                DAY 1
My weekend was quite a flurry of activities. On Saturday my bestie decided to drag me to the National Museums, I was reluctant at first since I had planned to sleep in but finally decided oh what the hell.....and it happened to be one of the best decisions ever....we had so much fun, it was just amazeballs.
Nairobi has been super cold lately and in the museum it was worse...freezing....so I went for a tiny black dress with a polka trench coat on top with the hope of catching a few drinks later with my buddies....well it didn't happen....was sooo tired to care. The yellow pumps were so comfortable and the heel was ideal for walking around.
I loved the pictures in gray scale....it sought of went along with the museum ancient theme
 My girls...loved their outfits especially the red dress, the pink shoe and the fuschia blouse with the belt.
                       Notice the faux fur scarf match with the lion...

                                                  DAY 2
On Sunday, we had planned to go visit this children's home in Ruiru....we always go back to check how they doing and just spend time with these kids...they always just amazing and we always have a ball everytime we go there.
        I wore very simple but with pops of color and boyfriend flatties with straps
We did a painting for the kids with everyone doing a signature thing....I went for a heart
                                   Yvonne....a lil very sweet angel

That's it for now.....my weekend in pictures....thanks for visiting!

Chez Maureen!
