FIRE STATION 014
Earlier today, I walked into the house and noticed my brother watching the show ‘Chicago Fire.’ I briefly tried to pay attention and for some how I got riled in. Being the annoying sister that I am, my poor brother had to pause and explain who’s who and what the plot was. If you are a fan of Chicago Fire I get it. I mean, who doesn’t love Firemen?
Seeing the cast, the fire trucks, men in Navy out there saving people got me thinking why not shoot my next post at the fire station? There happened to be one that Keziah and I had frequently spotted on our way back home. Fire Station 14!!
I love the number 14, may be it’s because my birthday falls on the 14th of the month.
If I could have a uniform, this would be it. Jeans, a white tee or cami, and a pair of high-heeled sandals. Oh, so comfortable, and if I am crazy busy running errands, quickly switch to ballet flats.
Funny how my lesso head-wrap had colors similar to the Fire truck. That was absolutely coincidental.

Fire Engine Red has always been my go to color. It's especially life-saving (pun-intended) when I am rocking a toned down look. Red just gives everything life!!
A special thanks to officers at Fire Station 14. You guys were awesome!!!!
BRIGHT WHITE
Summer whites and dark shades are a must have this season. Despite the heat, I love, love, the weather, I will take it any day over a cold winter one. I need to stop gushing about the weather but I can’t stop. I absolutely love it!!! Am rocking white jeans, simple white shirt, and comfy high-heeled sandals. The quirky eye clutch was an added plus!!
On this particular day, Kez and I were headed to a local pub to watch the World Cup game between USA and Ghana!! Well, Ghana got a serious beat down!! Then yesterday Spain got eliminated from the World Cup… so much for the defending Champs right? (I know, I know, all this football talk on a fashion blog but am a fan, please bear with me.)
It’s so much fun watching the world cup, even better when you are watching it with a loud group of friends. It’s amazing how a sport can bring nations together. Are you following the games? Who are you rooting for?

Enjoy the games and as always, thanks for stopping by.
CURBSIDE
Oh the excitement!!!!!
I was at the airport ready to head out to Jamaica this past weekend with my friends so Keziah and I decided to take quick outfit pic...
It was cloudy and rainy but the weather didn't faze me. A comfy outfit for a 3 hour flight to the tropical Island were my go to tomys, jeans, and a simple black top.

CASUAL DAYS
My sister Nonny, mentioned at one time that I am always wearing heels on the blog. Truth be told, I love high-heeled shoes, the higher the better. If you've been a frequent reader of the blog, I think by now that’s a no brainer. I once saw a quote that said, “Life is short. Heels should not!”
How appropriate!
But let's be honest, I don’t run around in high heels when am running errands. Whenever I feel the need to get things accomplished, I come down to earth, and don some flats.
I got these gorgeous red tomys from a Bata store in Kenya. They are perfect for those casual days. Absolutely adore them! Keziah and I can’t get enough of the Kiondo bags, we carry them pretty much anywhere. The color, textures, and patterns are so authentic, it's a beautiful bag to have.
Hats are great accessories if you want to add some flair to a look, or on those bad hair days. lol
The weather has been somewhat ok the past few days thus a simple navy blazer paired with blue jeans and a printed top were a go. After months of nasty winter, massive layering, and mind numbing cold, I am ready to stash away my coats and scarves then soak in some sun.
Spring is right around the corner. What a delight!
