Mujibyepi!! ('hello' in Kaonde)
Today is a wonderful day, not only because it's the second day of the week, but because we get to witness another day of fashion genius!!.
We are overwhelmed by the support our blog is receiving from you all. :)
Thanks to all the beauties that have let me take pictures of them for Ma Fashio. ;)
Today I'm wearing a green cardi', white vest, brown skinny belt, a duku, jeans and floral flats. With leather laced bangles as accessories. :)

Kahyi Today: 06/07/2012

:)
good morning(time: 08:59am)!!
Recently had my hair done and I seem to be having the greatest trouble styling it. Key reassures me it's only been a couple of days so in subsequent weeks my "creative juices" will be in full force. *fingers crossed*
Aside that, I chose to keep it "Kahyi simple" this morning: Army Style jacket, Button down shirt, rosary, bracelets & watch, jeans and flats. :)

Here's a look at my new hair. :)

more pictures to follow soon. :)

After The Hiatus:

The ruffly bit on this dress adds punch to an otherwise simple dress. :)

Black Bootie. Notice the nail job, FAB non?

An out take from the post: "Guest Starring: Mwenya".

The leopard print skirt happens to be a skirt Key bought and re-sewed to get to fit her  right. Notice how she paired that with a cardi, grey vest and plimsoles? dressy meets comfy. :)

A random shot of Key in the living room. :)

Kahyi. This I wore to church. Felt like adding a little "casual" to my usually dressy sunday getups.

Here's a better look at Key in her skirt.

This outfit was brought together wonderfully by the accessories, this particular piece(the necklace) from Kutowa Designs struck us most. love, love, love!

I know that it's winter here in my beautiful country... But I couldn't help trying out blue lipstick(a trending, but daring, lip colour in countries that are enjoying the summer).

Kahyi, thursday, 21/06/2012. Paired my multicoloured floral shirt with a blue cardi, grey jeans and my peterpan booties.

A close up of the cardi and floral shirt. Belted in for extra "oomph".

Look how it goes well with the beaded jewellery. :)

Key. Sunday 24/06/2012. some randoms.

Love this bag! The studs and lace detail make this bag what it is. Very Punk(the studs) meets French Chic(the lace).
