“Fashion is very important…it is life-enhancing and like everything that gives pleasure…it is worth doing well {Vivienne Westwood}”

From her bubbly voice….amazing jams and above all…..her style is outstanding, well we all love her...Today we have a chit chat with the talented Joyce Omondi Waihiga

1) How can you describe your style?

Classy, elegant, chic yet effortless.

2) What are some of shopping rules you wouldn’t necessarily recommend to others but which you follow?

I love shopping online because I really don’t enjoy rummaging through racks of clothing. I just end up bored and worked up. The challenge with online shopping though is that it can sometimes be a hit or miss, especially when it comes to ensuring a good fit. If the store you’re looking at has a good return policy then it’s ok, otherwise you’ll then have to find a good tailor to take it in for you if it’s too big, or you’ll have to donate it if it’s too small.(smiles)

3) Was there a moment in your life when something “CLICKED” for you about fashion or dressing or hair? Whatwas it and why do you think happened then?

Ever since I was a child, my mother always emphasized the importance of representing God, myself and my family well. She would always say, “You never know where you’ll be or who you have to meet. Always be prepared.” It’s a lesson that has always rang true in my life, including in how I dress. So as much as I want to look stunning, I also make sure that I am the best version of myself. How I carry and represent myself will determine how others treat and perceive me. If you respect, honor and value yourself, sooner or later others will have no choice but to do the same. In the same way, if you dress and portray yourself as a sexual object, people may sadly diminish your worth to just that, and treat you as such.

4) Are there any clothing (or related) items that you have in multiple? Why do you think you keep buying this thing?

Jeans and/or trousers. I find it difficult to find ones that fit my body type well. So when I do find them, I almost always pick up a couple in different colors.(smiles lightly)

5) Is there any fashion trend you’ve refused to participate in and why?

I generally don’t participate in any trends because I want to stand out on my own rather than look like everyone else. Also, not every trend will suit my body, personality or character. My style is not about particular fashion items or pieces but rather about how I carry and represent myself. So I never really worry about whether what I’m wearing is in or out of season. What’s most important to me is being comfortable, wearing what flatters my body, and representing myself, my husband, my family and those who look up to me well. I think being classy is about being graceful, secure and timeless, and unfailingly following trends just seems to be the exact opposite.

6) Do you look up to anyone in terms of style/fashion, both locally and internationally?

Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge; Jessica Pearson from the series Suits J; Toke Makinwa from Nigeria

7) What are you grateful for?

Purpose and God’s grace to pursue it

FLORAL PRINT ADDICTION

FLORAL PRINT ADDICTION

 

“Fashion has always been a repetition of ideas…but what makes it new is the way you put it together {Anonymous}”

Well it has been a minute! Trying to keep up with life, as we know it has become quite a challenge. Recently been getting a few why aren’t you writing no more…but am always up in search of new stuff keeping up with the trends you know. Have a read keeping it short as usual.

Today writing about floral print my new addiction. Floral prints are life I tell you. So out here mixing floral with some burgundy and navy heels.

For me every single detail counts…be it the accessories, shoes, make up, hair, outfit just everything counts. This dress has definitely has its own “decency” as you can see it’s just classy and the back opening isn’t too much.

You would find me rocking it at the cocktail parties, red carpet, weddings the list is endless. Feel free leave a comment below on where you would rock your floral print.

“It’s not about what size you wear. It’s about how you wear your size”
