October musings

Just a few snippets of October thus far! It's been quite eventful so far; went for the Swahili Fashion Week Nairobi Showcase which was a good evening - some great creativity. That said Patricia Mbela took the show - definitely set the standard for the rest of the designers! Great cut, fit, creativity and true elegance - I loved the way she highlighted the structural beauty of the shoulder blades:






As we're talking fashion, thought I'd share a few "new" pieces that I'm absolutely loving

                                                         



                                                             


                                         



This week was quite excting....I got to travel to Rwanda!! Kigali, to be specific. Was so excited for this trip...apart from the work to be done, I really wanted to get a feel of life in a fellow East African nation. Here are a few snippets of le pays des milles collines :)









Ooh and I noted that nothing was packed in plastic bags in Nakumatt...




and Mr. Price...!





On my last day there I got to visit the Rwanda Genocide Memorial, which was quite educational; I decided to get a book to learn a bit more about its history:


                                                 

To top off the week, I attended a gala for one of the projects I've been working on. They went all out to say the least! Funtimes all round :)






That's all for now - have a lovely week :)
