KITTEN HEELS.

A Kitten heel is a short slender heel of an approximately 1.5 inches or 3.5 centimeters.

This kind of heel is uncommon among the 20-something Kenyan lady, but should be a must have in every woman’s shoe rack…Kitten heels come in Pumps, knee or  ankle boots and sandals .They have been often regarded as the ugly step-sister of the heels family but I view them as a blessing in disguise. I mean they are the most comfy of all heels. These are the type of heels that you can walk the whole length of Kenyatta  and Moi avenues without tiring.That is, for those Nairobi  ladies who aint used to the 12-inches heels just yet. Kitten heels is a blessing too , to taller ladies as they can be worn without accentuating their height more. They are trainer heels too for teens or ladies learning to balance higher heels.

Apparently, I prefer the kitten heel sandal to the pump or the boot. They modish and can be an alternative to my routine flat sandals .I can wear them without having to carry an extra pair of sandals in my handbag.

 Give me your take on kitten heels ladies,would you wear them or not?

MY STYLE,MY LIFE.

THE OTTOMAN;GIFT FROM THE TURKS.

Ola ,good people!

Today, I came across a fascinating piece of furnishing that I thought I could share with you. It’s called an OTTOMAN.

An ottoman is piece of furniture like a large box with an upholstered top.

Most Kenyans are not familiar with this type of furniture but must have heard the name Ottoman from their history classes back in Primary school. Just to recap, The Ottoman Empire was an empire created by the Turks back in the late 13^th Century and latest to early 18^th Century. Apparently, this type of furniture has its origins from this empire which was a  central piece of the family settings among the Turks. However, it has revolutionized over the years from a piece of fitted furniture to a circular or rectangular or octagonal shape  portable furniture in the 19^th Century.

An ottoman can be used as a footstool, coffee table or even a seat in living rooms.

However, when using it as coffee table consider a material that can be easily be wiped clean easily,like leather. For footstools, the upholstered top should be removable for constant laundry.

Some are hollow and can be used as a hidden storage for items making them essential in almost every room in the house from the kid’s bedroom to the dressing room.

Moreover, clubs and entertainment spots as benches for lounges.  

Ottomans in Kenya can be bought in Mimosa furniture,Westlands and other major furniture stores in Nairobi.You can also have your local carpenter to custom make one for you .That way you can have your tastes and preferences considered.You can use a wide range of fabrics,color,shape and also wild  prints.     

An ottoman,one with zebra prints, for my living room is a must have .Coz it’s My Style, My Life.

XOXO.

The front fringe weave

goodmorning people!

It is quite unpleasantly cold  outside this morning  and the thought that the short  lived sunny September weather is over is heartbreaking.

All the same, been thinking of a hairstyle to sport and I have settled for the front fringe weave.Yes, a weave…I know most Kenyan men hate them but to me and most women they are very essential.

I am not gonna try to convince Kenyan men their necessity but just to mention it ,weaves are manageable  and require low maintenance. They also protect the natural hair for those adventurous women who love to experiment on color one can dye human hair without risking destroying your natural hair.In addition ,women can experiment different looks with the wide range of styles that the market provides.

 

The front fringe weave covers a lil bit of the forehead and can be long or short  depending on your preference. The likes of Tyra Banks, Naomi Campbell and some of my confident lady friends have sported it. I associate this style with confident ,fashion savvy women who like to dare to be different, away from the ordinary styles. Am one of those women and am gonna rock it!!Coz its My Style,My Life.

Xoxo.
