Coco Oh lalah

Embracing being an African is one thing that I absolutely enjoy. Especially if it is in a way that I can express my love for fashion. I can design whatever I put my mind into... but at the moment I am enjoying embracing those who are putting their feet where their mouthes are (not literally silly). Soon I will walk my my thoughts and talk:

For me it is always the finishing of tailored products that I concentrate on as well as the cutting and textures used.

I love this belt, I would probably do a side tie. It's pretty!

I love this, so classy, the fabric looks chosen to perfection and the finishing is just perfect to the fit. I would do a dress instead of the skirt and corset top.

A jeans dress to the bubble..ooh la la. I would probably design a really nice afro-fabric clutch with this plus matching pumps. Can you imagine what I am imagining, or am I giving you ideas!

A butterfly effect... frills and all this bag is finished to perfction

Afro Chic Vintage- Cocolah. I love it!

Dressing up

Dresses of the moment... Prints and all!

Car and Fashion

The way you dress should reflect where you are going, how you feel and the ride you are pimping out there. But first I'm going to just give my girls pick for the day then it's all men and cars.

Casual Chic... do it like you just couldn't be bothered yet it just fell into place 

Imagine a really slick BMW passing by... how would you visualise the person driving it would where it?

I would picture them in this

How about this classic Mercedes that is just calling me, You've got to want to know whose in it

I would picture him in this

Dress like it's hot

I love dressing up, it creates my mood for the day.

Brighten up your day with a yellow frock, pair it up with a waistcoat and these beautiful finishing touches. Trust me, your mood will be bright for the whole day

You wanna go out this evening...  do this one this way

This weekend, plan in advance if you have that very special night... trust me!

Days in Fashion

Jeans, Can be casual and formal, depending on how you wear them. When you want to make it formal, always put on high heels, when you want it casual; sandals or trainers aka sneakers would do. Here is how I'd do it!

Plain yet stylish

Chic Funky

Work fun... I can definitely see myself in this for work

New Year...Is it really New?

Whilst a lot of people have come back from holidays feeling fresh and rejuvenated and ready to take on the load of work waiting for them,

I have walked in feeling like being in my pyjamas, with a cup of tea in hand, with my scented candles giving me the calm aroma. At the same time doing all my work on my computer at home, in my little apartment faced by the beautiful Indian Ocean.(i'll keep dreaming...)

I didn't have a holiday, too many end of year campaigns to take care of. I did however spend my New year with my grandmother. I am happy about that, I love going to Tanga (that is where I was born). It is full of traditions and calm atmosphere... you can travel from one place to another in a few minutes only. One setback is bicycles... too many and they feel they have more privilege like cars. But the sound of home, with grandmothers talking as loud as if it is 1pm when it's 5am, waking up to prepare breakfast for us. Believe me breakfast in Tanga means (you can survive not eating till the day after). Only that they won't let you, cuz lunch here comes another meal full of flavours, evening is my favourite time. I light meal accompanied by tea and a lot of fruits.

How did your holiday go?

Out fit panache

Aisha Tyler's dress and shoes are working for me. The hair cut too

Wow. Ms Washington, you are working that outfit, full leather and playing with colours. The cut of the top accentuates and levitates. Simple yet very stylish

Black doesn't always have to be boring, mixing it here mix it there, I love that scarf and the simple pumps. I am just teaching you how to layout your outfits girls!! Enjoy!

Pick n' Mix

This is so chic boutique...

Simple cute...is that my chanel bag? mh, I can see mustard goes well with aqua blue too...maybe I can do a mustard bag/clutch with that outfit.

I've been debating with myself about this outfit, I love it... maybe mh... would I wear it... mh maybe not with the sequined jacket... maybe I would... but I love it with the mustard clutch bag... it's just a finishing touch that works!

That Home Touch

I am an interior designing freak... well, a great lover of all things fashion!

Just a candle can be so boring, how about flowers with it especially with this special season

the dream creation

Intimacy with nature

And I just loved this T-shirt that's all...truly expressed

The two obsessions

This season, I have two obsessions. 

First being a pencil skirt 

And second a ruffle with one shoulder effect...It's just that beautiful! What's your favourite?

The Holiday feeling

Style has a way of creeping into your body and fitting just right. You must be wanting to look demure and sexy this holiday season. A pick or two just for you

I love style that fits just right, Have you noticed how you never wear matching shoes rather a totally contrasting colour. Love the bag

Purple haven, shine on ladies. Now not every one should wear purple just cause it's the colour for this season. You can have accents, for example accessories like shoes, clutches or a dress with no matching accessories like this. It's a season to be jolly tralalalala

Or, you can be me and wear red like Miss Lathan. On New Years Eve

Then on New years day, simple chic would do, and just cuz' I love what Ms Long's wearing. Pop a colour with black then accent it with printed shoes (they must be cute is the rule)

Pick me because I'm sexy

Black doesn't have to be boring, just wear it right...

I love this jacket, I'm on a mission to recreate it with shorter arms, it's chic sexy

I don't know if I love this dress or not but there is something about it. The detail is eye catching and just makes you that much interested, put leather on it, have the neck plunging and the open back, the frill detail, with the bubbled arms and you've got you a beautiful eye catcher.

For The love of Chanel

I gotta new love, it's small it's cute, it comes in all colours, and it makes me feel fabulously chic! It's chanel's cute little bag, it can e worn over the shoulder, hold it on your hand, as a clutch or a one shoulder... You love it or Hate it, I want it

metallic infusion

My favourite, it says classy

My everyday squeeze, my heart has been taken over by this

Fashion Hunt

I went on a hunt for fashion from the fashion hungry jungle.  I tend to love people who have their own individual style. I have showcased mine so many times, so what's yours?

ugh, she is so work ready, I always say, tone down a patterned bottom with a white t-shirt or shirt, with those nude accented accessories. It's no wonder her fashion was hunted

Boho chic, talk about individuality

I am so into this dress and the shoes they go perfectly with the accessories

Since overcoming a lot of tragedies, I feel like a new woman and came back more feminine and this is one of the looks I absolutely have been dotting around with confidence 

That executive confidence, is what I have and it all comes out with my fashion

Sharing ASOS

Today I received an email from my favourite shopping place. I just thought since, it's a time to share and be nice so for this festive season these looks are working... for those in the cold or for us in the heat!

For my petit ones out there elongate your legs and body with these numbers

I heart this dress from ASOS so much better than the one on SJP

For my biker chicks, if you wanna go girly yet still maintain your cool throw in that jeans biker jacket onto a sparkling number

I've fallen in love with both the picks especially the skirt and dress ooh

Nothing says its christmas than a sparkling green dress..I want I want... with those earrings then tone it down with the black kitten heels. Mh what would you do without fashion!
