OOTD / OOTW - WHAT I WORE

OOTD / OOTW – WHAT I WORE


Welcome to my first ever outfit of the day / outfit of the week post. The reason why these are combined is because I don’t post every single day of the week so I gathered my looks of the week and I wanted to share them with you guys. This post is honestly coming from the heart, I have seen a number of OOTD posts and they are all fabulous, high heels and designer clothes and i ask myself, "Y'all don't own any average clothes?", so while working on this post, I got biased, I chose my best heels, favorite clothes and decided, these are the ones I will wear, then I thought to myself, that is not what I am about, I don’t fake it, I will wear exactly what I wore this week, take pictures and post them up. Part of my fear was that everyone will think my style is boring or I don’t dress with expensive and trendy clothes, well expensive? No, trending yes I do. But my week is never high heels and tight up skirts, if I am at home its pjs and socks, when I step out? I still like to keep it simple. So I present to you all, the real shasha and her style of the day / week.



JORDANS ALL DAY EVERYDAY!
I am a tomboy underneath, so when I don’t have to present myself to anybody (work), This is me, I am mostly in jeans and T-shirts, cool T-Shirts, my tight jeans or baggy jeans, boots or jordans and 90% of the time a hair accessory to hide my bad hair days and I have a lot trust me. I have been told before that that hat does not go with that style, but i wear it anyway, in my eyes i see something, it's different but not so bad. For tips on how to accessorize your bad hair day, click on this link BAD HAIR DAY SOLUTIONS . But my first tip will be to always visit my blog, In most of my posts, it’s a bad hair day. also check these out : D.I.Y CUSTOMIZED BEANIE , HOW I DO MY HAIR (QUICKIE)





MAXIMUM FIERCENESS
Who said short girls can’t wear maxi dresses? Chin up, push up bra and work it. Confort and style all in one, keep it simple, accessorize and don’t forget your most important accessory, confidence. Let it shine.





OVERALLS OR NAH…
I vote yes! Overalls are hot and trending and I got my hand on one, 30bob only and I bet you this doesn’t look like 30Ksh. Thumbs up if you think I should have worn them with geek classes, and share if you think it’s fine without. This was my outfit of the day today, 27 may 2014.






The reason I posted only 3 outfits is because I am a “home girl” and I don’t go out, unless there is something I need to do. So all other days are T-shirt, basketball shorts, Pjs, sweat pants and over again… FRIDAY’S POST WILL BE THE B-O-M-B…! Don’t miss it. 

I CHOOSE MAXIMUM FIERCENESS AS MY OUTFIT OF THE WEEK
For the following reasons:

- My hair looks great
- My maxi dress is the ish...
- It's simple and comfortable
- It gives me a booty
- I am feeling myself in it. 



THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR VISITING

D.I.Y POLKA JEANS

D.I.Y POLKA JEANS



Hi guys, I hope all is well, and TGIF (Thank God It’s Friday), because it means another D.I.Y to try out. Before we start, let me just clarify that I have had these jeans for 3 years now and wore them about 5 times only. I don’t know why, we all have  that one outfit in our closet that we bought and never find the occasion or need to wear it but at the same time can’t let go. So I pulled myself together and decided to use it for today’s post. I have no intentions of wearing them anytime soon so why waste it? Pimp it? Maybe I start wearing them again. Polka are not necessarily trending but the polka trend never fades away and as you all know, I am gaga about polka dots, there is just something about them, y’all can have stars and hearts, give me all the polka dots in the world, small medium and large. With all the tutorials I have done, what I love the most is having fun with it, if something does not seem funny, I am doing it, boredom bores me. So this tutorial is all fun and easy, I also like what is easy because there is a lazy side in me who just can’t wait to get done with everything, so the easiest and the funniest, the better I focus and put in 100%. I always find an excuse for my laziness, so to justify it let me just say that bill gate say he “will always choose a lazy person to do a job”, of course we think quick, fast and better. That’s called development. J Anyway let’s do this.


WHAT YOU NEED
-      Jeans
-      Paint
-      Nail polish bottle / pencil


I like cheap things, and I like cheap D.I.Ys even better. But let’s clarify this, I am not that cheap… okay I am but not to the extreme. At least that’s what I think. All the above items are pretty easy to find, fabric paint you can get for only 70ksh at any craft shop, and please make sure it is fabric paint. The nail polish you can get at 50ksh and the jeans I recommend old jeans but if you don’t have any, you can get jeans for as little as 150Ksh… Oh yes you can! Goood ones.

STEP ONE
Lay down your fabulous jeans and dip the top part of the nail polish bottle or crayon into the paint and, you can put the paint in the cap so you don’t waste too much paint by dipping it in.


STEP TWO
Dot it on to the jeans, how you wish it to be, I started with many dots at the top, and reduced as I got lower and eventually stopped. Then let it dry for a few minutes, to be safe 10 minutes. I did not do the back of the jeans, because i just wanted to show you guys how this can be done. You can do the back too if you wish.


THEN VOILA!!!



If you loved this turorial, please like, share, comment or let me know, all my contacts are below and if you wish to check out more awesome tutorials, be sure to come back next week Friday for more dopeness and on the blog you can check out more tutorials, and I can proudly say, over 30 D.I.Ys all easy, with no sewing skills required, from sheer skirts, to Ankara print pumps, Bodycon skirts, British invasion shoes, rugged jeans… etc You can also find beauty tips, fashion tips and my looks articles. Have fun loves!

ATTENDING FAFA GALA MODEL TRAINING 2014

ATTENDING FAFA GALA MODEL TRAINING 2014

Hello everyone, I hope all is well and your week started off pretty good. One of the biggest fashion events is right around the corner and guess who is attending? This broke girl, how? Y’all don’t wanna know. For those who don’t know, The Festival for African Fashion and arts, founded by Ann McCreath CEO of Kikoromeo. The event showcases a variety of designers and artists. This week I got the opportunity to attend the FAFA model training and I would love to share the experience with you all.



Ajuma nasenyana and I. And that is how short i am guys, now you have see it. :-)



I applaud these girls for what they do, because it’s not easy walking in heels, let alone walking over and over again and not taking them off, spinning… etc. Reminds me of my pageant days, training was the worst part, but the event was the best.



I had to stand on my toes because I wanted to look at least a bit taller, who knows maybe I was about to find “My Johnny”. I still look shorter but I wanted to fit in, everyone there were taller than me, I felt like a midget.



That dope picture below? taken by me... I totally fell in love with this pool, if I was allowed, I’d strip right there jump and have fun. Talking of swimming, stay tuned, got dopeness in store for you this month.



MORE PICTURES!







LASTLY SELFIIIEEE....!!! With my friend winne. Check out her feature on one of my posts WHAT TO WEAR TO A FASHION INTERVIEW and make sure to check out her blog. Kisses

D.I.Y RIHANNA INSPIRED KNEE HIGH STOCKINGS

D.I.Y RIHANNA INSPIRED 
KNEE HIGH STOCKINGS.


Hey girlfriends, lovely weekend to you all and I apologize for not posting on Tuesday as some of you know, I posted Friday’s post on Sunday because my camera and computer both had a problem so I thought posting on a Tuesday would be too soon for a new post, so I only had one post last week, but I am back and I missed you guys so much. I hope you understand and I promise to try my best not to mess with my computer settings anymore, no more trying to be smart-ass. Today’s post is inspired by my boo, yes my “ooh ooh”. Rihanna. I have loved rihanna since I was very young, she is beautiful, risky, talented, and my every day, every week “WCW” . This will sound funny but sometimes I see a bit of me in her, that’s why I love her. She is her own boss, does whatever she wants and is shameless especially when it comes to her sexuality, I admire that because, if you are sexy show it off, don’t hide it and waste a good body. She is down to earth and a bit crazy, although I am a bit more crazy; but let’s talk about the post. I love knee high socks or Stockings, I think it’s made for short girls like me to make us look taller with longer legs. I love it very much on rihanna, that is why, I decided to cheat some of her swagger. Below you will also see different ways to wear the self made knee high socks or tights.


WHAT YOU NEED:

-      Scissors
-     Leggings

Yes that’s about it, all you need for today. You can get the stockings at 50ksh, about anywhere around Nairobi. I suggest you get those that are quiet tight, you will find out why, down below.

STEP ONE AND STEP LAST.
Cut your tights anywhere around your thights, wherever you are confortable with; and that is all. First and last step.



If you remember the "D.I.Y SHEER SKIRT TUTORIAL", I had high waisted shorts under the sheer skirt, and those shorts are made made from this tights in this D.I.Y. That is why I do not have the full picture of the tights as a whole, I had it but I lost it

- Note that the tights made into stockings may slide down, so to avoid that from happening you can sew in an elastic around it. But if it slides down it reaches a point and will stop sliding, so i found no need to put an elastic around mine.


So I decided to style it three different ways too give you guys an idea on how it can be worn. 

PRETTY WOMAN HOOD VERSION
My sister named this one, she said I looked like pretty woman but the hood version, I laughed so hard, I think that’s why I couldn’t get a perfect picture, I was so cautious about my ratchetness. So I was trying to look classy.


RIHANNA INSPIRED
Another way of wearing these knee high stockings or socks is by wearing then as plain socks. Rihanna and I looking like twins. “Bitch stole my look”. Who wore it better?


GYAL IN THEM PUM PUM SHORTS
Love my denim on denim trend and this outfit makes me want to dance to some heavy dancehall music. Got my dancing shoes on and I am ready to bruk it down!



Last week I reached my 50th post, so thank you guys so much, it feels amazing and within those 50 posts, there is probably 30 D.I.Ys. Wow. Do go through them and get creative, enough to keep you busy this weekend if you are not the drinking type like me,  I will be home most likely watching vines or watching stupid people do stupid things on youtube. I love my weekends.


THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR VISITING
