I am always out and about exploring fun events, restaurants and new Art/music in Kenya. The Kenyan creative scene is growing every day with so much variety it makes my soul swoon. On this road of discovery, I happen to meet one of my Favorite performers and now good friend; Kenyan-American rapper Barak Jacuzzi. He hosted  first ever “Barak Jacuzzi & Friends 90s Jam” at the Creative Garage to celebrate his latest release and the theme was 90’s. The crowd and I did not waste any time and had so much fun creating oldie looks like we were back in the 90s.

This time round, he held a casual documentary film of the making of the Juice Bar 2 Album at J’s Bar which was such a different feel to his last event.

I went with a bunch of my friends and Sister Yimbiha, watched the film, drank some cocktails and had thee most amazing chicken skewers. I have a whole vlog (Video Blog) about it HERE.

If you are ever looking for a weekend plan just check our Barak Jacuzzi instagram, he is always doing a show and never disappoints.

I have been loving a simple pieces outfit looks currently with thick heeled black booties. For this look, I went for a bohemian style floral crop top with slim straps from partnered with black high waist skinny jeans from . Since the event would be running late into the night I added on my faded, ragged but fitting blue denim jacket (I’M OBSESSED) which I wore off shoulder until it was too cold outside.

My hair was in twist outs which makes me look so street. To accessorize, I wore my gold choker and brass cuff  finished the look with green lipstick to just throw off everything lol.

I was going for  a cool way to toughen up the printed dress  with the help of some cool sneakers. The right sneakers can make a statement. In fact, if you’ve been tuning into the runways or street style, then you know sneakers can be the difference between a basic or banging outfit.

As the weather changes we enjoy showing more skin and wearing vibrant lipsticks that bring out our skin tone. Dresses that feature flowers and floral patterns are often our sunny days staples should you opt for a flattering A-line dress, a skin tight bandage dress, or slip into a sexy bodycon dress.

Floral Dresses are a must-have in every girls wardrobe! Besides, there’re so many ways you can go with wearing one, from the 70s vibes to more retro approach, to classic, to girly, to even casual and laid back.

And they go great with heels and ballet flats. A blazer on top will look more classic. For a more sophisticated style chose a floral bomber jacket (mismatched print alert), or even a leather jacket.

Wearing dress you’ll feel totally special – graceful, rebutable, glorious! Exactly like this I feel at pictures with my floral dress

Everything fits in so well with what I typically wear, and I’m most excited about these white slip on sneakers! I tried them on with almost every outfit and they went with everything. They are easy to wear and are leather on the exterior so I’m hoping they won’t get too dirty like a canvas sneaker would.

Consider that larger flowers are more flattering to petite body types. Oversized floral patterns may add a few pounds to your silhouette and thus are not recommended for shapely women. Smaller flowers and floral patterns give the impression of a solid and are recommended for average to more shapely body types.

If your body type is slim to average consider exploring a balance of larger floral patterns and smaller patterns. When unsure if the pattern is flattering try to break up the pattern with a belt or trendy scarf.

Also be sure to consider the host background color of your floral dress. White backgrounds that display bright and sunny inspired blooms are ideal for concealing problem bulges. Darker backgrounds give you a more tailored and tapered look to give your body the illusion of being more slim.

Neutral colors such as black, beige, white, nude, and silver generally compliment floral patterns and are often closet staples (so no extra shopping is needed). From your shoes to your jewelry to the bag you decide to carry, adding a dollop of neutral shades ensures the floral print is balanced and in harmony with your style.

Let’s get inspired now and keep in mind that it’s less about what we wear and more how we wear it.

Can we also take a moment and admire the artistry that is this water fall? I remember seeing it and knew that this will be my shoot location.I mean isn’t this gorgeous?

Now on to the blog post, Floral fashion is today’s topic and it doesn’t have to be cheesy! With select patterns and symbols (and an open mind!), you may find that flaunting flower vibes really is your thing.   

Floral prints and bright pieces always come into play come spring. It’s the time of year that we finally get to shed a few layers and change the direction of our style. While not everyone may be ready to tuck away their cozy knits and rain-ready boots, I sure am – and I am not hesitating with jumping into my favorite spring trends.

How to Wear Floral Prints this Spring

Make a statement:

Floral print accessories are a great way to try the floral print trend as seasons transition. A floral print top or pair of shoes will brighten up your day without looking over-the-top. If you’re wary of this trend, try incorporating it into your outfit as a statement accessory piece–you’ll make an impact, but it will still be subtle!

Add a contrast:

Toughen up your floral pieces by pairing them with a contrasting texture or color, like black. This skirt paired with this cute top creates a more balanced and visually intriguing overall look. Add on a pair of simple chic jewelery to your floral and you’ve create a look that combines ladylike prints with toughened up fashion.

Go girly:

Floral print is a definite staple in the girly-girl closet:  Think wedding outfits. If wedding bells-inspired style isn’t your thing, you can still create a totally girly look by picking up your favorite skirts, dresses, and blouses in tiny floral prints. Traditionally girly styles are made even more feminine with the addition of this fun print.

Go for the Unexpected:

This flower printed top may be floral, but it’s not the typical print we’re used to seeing. This print almost has a tropical vibe to it which makes it really unique. This sort of print paired with the fact that it’s almost a velvety texture makes it a really one-of-a-kind piece to have in your wardrobe.

Go edgy:

With the right outfit, floral print can also have an edgy feel. Instead of picking dainty pastel florals, try a larger print in darker colors. As a bonus, these darker florals can be worn into cooler seasons, too! Another way to give your floral look an edgier vibe is to pair a feminine floral with tougher accessories like this choker and sunglasses. Mix and match for a look that’s all your own!

Finish off with great shoes:

A pair of perfect high heels can lengthen your legs and pair your skirt very well. Also, a pair of high heels can spice up your outfit. Actually, a pair of high heels can go with any outfit. It’s useful to have pairs of high heels.
