I love a dress that brings out my curves - Veteran singer Choku reveals more about her life

Pulse: In a few words, describe your style...

Choku: Original and trendy.

P: What sets your style apart from other artists?

C: I fuse different styles to come up with my own unique look.

P: Where would you never ever buy shoes?

C: It doesn’t matter so long as they look good.

P: What was your recent beauty buy?

C: A MAC make up kit from the UK. I love MAC products because they suit the African skin colour.

P: What can one never have too many of?

C: Shoes! I am crazy about shoes and just love them; I have so many pairs of boots and canvas shoes.

P: Which ensemble would you love to try out?

C: A sheer dress. They look sexy, especially the ones that bring out your curves.

P: Which hairdo completes your look?

C: I love haircuts. Right now I have a Mohawk.

P: What is your favourite colour?

Choku: My favourites are gold, black and white; neutral colours look very cool on anything.

P: How often do you shop?

C: I do a lot of impulse buying but I do not go beyond a certain amount of money in a month. I buy stuff when I see it, because if you shop when you need the outfit you end up not getting what you want.

P: When was the last time you bought an item you didn’t like?

C: Last year, I bought a jacket and when I got home I realised that it was not that good.

P: What is the most you can spend on a pair of shoes?

C: Sh15,000. If I like the shoe very much I can buy it for that amount. But I would prefer to spend less. Last week I bought boots for Sh14,000.

P: What is the least you can spend on your hair?

C: Sh400. That’s what I pay to refresh my haircut at the barber.
