My Style: Sharon Mundia (This is Ess)

P: You wouldn’t be caught dead in?

S: Creepers. I think they’re quite ugly. But then again, you never know, you could just find me strutting in them on my blog a couple months from now although it is highly unlikely.

P:  This item makes you feel instantly beautiful…

S:  A good red lipstick is a great start especially if it’s in the right shade. I love the Nouba Millebaci lipstick in shade number 46 – pretty epic.

P: Your best ever fashion buy?

S: My black tights from Vivo. I’ve worn them over and over again it’s ridiculous. They are extremely comfortable and versatile. I would also say my white blazer from Store 66.

P: The cheapest item in your wardrobe?

S:  A striped top, which I bought for Kshs30., I’ve worn it so many times and it’s still in great condition.

P:  The most expensive item in your fashion collection is?

S: A pearl bracelet that cost a pretty penny.

P:  Your current all-time favourite look?

S: I’ve found myself drawn to all white ensembles recently. Something about it seems very clean and polished, which really appeals to me.

P: The greatest fashion crime women commit?

S:   Not being comfortable in the outfits they put together which I’ve been guilty of but over time I realised the more comfortable I feel in my outfit, whether or not it’s in a six-inch heel or a pair of sneakers, the more confident I am.

P:What routine do you follow to maintain your beautiful long locks?

S:  I’m currently using Silicon Mix products, which are very moisturizing. I also use Argan Oil on the ends of my hair every other night.

P:  A trendsetter or trend follower?

S:   I would say I’m a trendsetter or a little bit of both. Sometimes I pick my favourite trends from the runway and find ways to incorporate it into my personal style but I also give ideas on how to pair outfits and accessories.

P: Bikini or one-piece swimsuit?

S: A bikini considering I only own bikinis but if the one piece were a great fit and designed beautifully then I would definitely wear it.

P: As a fashion blogger what’s the best advice you would give?

S: Be true to yourself and never apologise for it.
