A Purple Oversize

Hello guys!Said it before and I'll say it again,I love purple.It's been a favorite color for so long although the first few times I mentioned that on the blog,I was complaining about not having much to show for it.Things have however started changing since then.I seem to be getting luckier at finding purple stuff these days and I'm loving it.

I found this purple blazer while thrifting for some items and for obvious reason,I couldn't bring myself to leave it there.It's slightly oversize around the waist area.I know I'm usually all about showing off the waist and that I've developed a habit of taking everything that isn't fitting around that area to my tailor for adjustment but not for this one.I like it as it is.I wore it over a black on black ensemble with a brown belt to break the black line a little.I opted for grey shoes,a brown bag and this black n white scarf I tied into a turban.

Cute One

Sophie Atieno My Style , 39 Comments

Don't you just love Fridays!!Hello there.It's quite sad that we never get any snow around this part of the world.I love snow,I think it's so beautiful but I always have to watch it on TV.I was just thinking about that after reading some blogs this week with the writers talking about how snow has started falling early.What's happening here though is that the weather keeps fluctuating.Sunny and warm today,cold and rainy tomorrow.The advantage of that is that you don't have to keep some wardrobe pieces away,at least for now, before it officially gets colder in the coming days.
I have been in love with this blue n white dress since the day I bought it.I know I know,makes me look somehow like a little girl but it's all ok.Isn't that youthful look what most people are always looking for?Anyway,I have developed an immense love for sporty chic and always try to find an excuse to wear converse or sneakers with my girly outfits.White shoes have my heart these days.I liked how the whole ensemble complimented this bob I've been rocking for some time now and I added some yellow earrings for a nice pop of color.

Random Dress Picks

Sophie Atieno Feature , 40 Comments

Lots of pictures,for obvious reasons,there's quite a number of us today.Hello guys,how you doin'?So when somebody randomly asks you to put on a nice little dress and doesn't tell you where you're going wearing it ,what is it that immediately crosses your mind? Well,we all just showed up with these at the studio on a random day.It was quite a fun shoot really.I also think a dress can bring out some aspects of your personality.

Mercy has a sweet personality that reflects in her choice of dress and it's color.She's also short so the strapless skater dress makes her look amazing.This is an easy dress to wear because of its length and color.Maybe an afternoon event.

Immaculate is the daring kind needles to say.I mean that length of dress isn't for just anyone.I think this would work for a night club kinda girl.She's also very slim so this works because she wouldn't have deal with the dress riding up.

Sharon is the happy kind.Very smiley and her dress says it all.Nice and flowery.Goes so well with that blonde bob.Her color palette is great and summery if you ask me.She looks ready for a summer party.

And yours truly,I am just me,same girl who's always putting up posts so I guess my style is pretty much known.I must say I'm a big fan of bodycon dresses.I had a date in mind.Thanks for stopping by and a big thanks to the girls for joining me on this one.

Turtleneck

Sophie Atieno My Style , 43 Comments

My dear readers,I found this amazing sweater top being sold on the streets as I was walking towards a shoe store in Eldoret.Boy was I in love!I tried it on and even though it was a tad big,I couldn't bring myself to leave it.I took it to my tailor immediately and with a few adjustments here and there it was all good.Everyone else who sees me in it seems to love it equally as much.I've discovered several ways of wearing it and this laid back and casual style is just one of them.The yellow belt gives it a pop of color and the turban,you can say a touch of African.Like it?
