My style is… I don’t have a specific style. I’m likely to wear anything that goes with my body and depending on whatever mood I’m in when I wake up.
I have no problem getting something to wear since I love my body. It’s proportional all the way. Full-figured ladies who complain about not getting something to weado so because they don’t love their bodies.
I find it hard to dress my…
Bum, it’s really big. My pals call it a tumour. My bum has a life of its own.
Worst fashion ever invented…
Savco jeans. They were just shady and would scream…kao…! from a distance. (Not being tribalist, though).
What is the most overrated fashion item?
Skinny jeans, they have been there for a while but since most people just discovered them, they make them sound like a must have.
What clothes flatter your body…
Dresses, they are comfortable and show off just enough.
A good shoe to me is…
A heel, I’m crazy about strappy heels, I find them sexy. I would do sandals once in awhile, but they also have to be strappy.
What’s your worst habit?
The things I do to my hair. I’m the blue, white braids, blonde weave kind of chic. You never know what’s coming. I have dyed it platinum, blonde, maroon, even applied peroxide on it. I now have blonde dreads.
What fashion item makes you look twice at jamaa?
I’m very versatile in my taste, but it has to fit and show off a bit of muscle.
I have a fetish for…
Shoes. It is so serious, I’ve like 56 pairs yet no more than four pairs of jeans…(chuckles).
Tell us about your handbag…
It’s a different, natural unrefined Makuti fibre, and I like the size, because it carries a lot of stuff without bulging.
Fashion advice…
Style is fashion! But fashion is not style.
