FEELING GREEN

By
Hi all!! I hope your week is coming along great.
I wore this outfit on Sunday to church. It's not something that I would normally wear to church but I had really missed this dress and it was brought home after I had to leave it behind in India due to excess luggage. 
I paired it with black leggings because stockings seem to make some of my dresses ride when I'm walking due to static. These chunky ankle boots were my accessory of choice together with this scarf which I wore specifically to hide the cartoon on my t-shirt that was peeping out. 
 This is my failed attempt at making a turban. I couldn't figure out what to do with the edges of the scarf so I just made my usual band.
Outfit Details:
Dress: Kamla Nagar Market, India
Boots: gift from mum
Handbag and neck-scarf: mum's
Scarf as headband: from my sister
Bracelets: gifts
Earrings: gift
 I carried this bag on Saturday and I didn't have tome to change it so I just decided it would be good for colour-blocking. I really like it. It's the perfect size to fit all the things I carry and it's a different colour from my usual black and brown handbags.
I threw on the first bracelets I could find which  I found and a ring which I've had for close to three years now and I can count the number of times I've worn it on one hand. I finally found a dress whose colour matches the ring's. Yay!!!
 Not my favourite outfit but it turned out ok! Thoughts???

 Here's another outfit from my little sister's crazy head!!
She was feeling too lazy to put on her ankle boots which matched perfectly with her outfit, hence the mulit-coloured flip-flops.


Happy Tuesday!!!

A labour of love: Long days, bee stings and a global premiere

By
“Amkeni” roughly translates to “Rise Up” in Kiswahili. This is the call of Chambuko Amkeni, a community-led conservation group involved in mangrove restoration and protection. In 2025, I had the honour of working with them to document their journey on women’s leadership in coastal and marine conservation, climate change adaptation and the blue economy, for a collaboration between Mission inclusion and the BBC StoryWorks'   for the   Living Legacy Series . This was my first time working on a project of this magnitude not to mention one that would have a global audience. To say this has been one of the highlights of the last two years is an understatement. Just thinking about it, my heart swells with pride. I feel like a mother watching her baby grow and come of age (please don't tell my daughter this!). With members of the Chambuko Amkeni Group Leading the production of Amkeni with my amazing colleagues was a true labour of love. A vision come to life thanks to the support o...

Rediscovering myself

By
A few blog posts ago I alluded to struggles I'd been facing for a few years now. I said that I would address these issues here soon but honestly, I didn't know when would be a good time. So I thought that today is as good a day as any. Last year I was diagnosed with trauma. It had been years in the making, a result of an emotionally abusive relationship and years of challenging events with seemingly no respite in sight. Although I had eventually gotten out of the relationship, I had unconsciously allowed this person's opinions of me become so ingrained in me that I had lost all knowledge of my former self. I lacked self-confidence. I blamed myself for many things that had happened in my life. I was perpetually sad and struggled to find even the smallest things to smile about. I had no motivation to do even those things that I loved. I would take photos and see my smiling face but deep down I knew that was just a front. I was broken, a shell of my former self. Now I'm no...

Blogging Challenge Day 13 | 5 Ways I Learned To Be Happy (No Matter The Circumstances)

By
Like everybody else, I began this year on a very positive note. I hoped for a better year than I had had in 2017. I had a plan that I laid out and I was determined to accomplish a lot of what was on my 2018 list. I once heard someone say that sometimes you plan and it doesn't work out not because you haven't put in enough effort but because God has other plans for you. So the first three months of 2018 were completely upside down for me. Everything seemed to be going wrong. I won't lie to you and tell you that I carried on happy in spite of everything that wasn't working. I struggled to smile, to wake up in the morning, to face my day, to be around people. However, I was determined to find lasting happiness. I wanted to find a way that would ensure that I remained happy even when life seemed to be going against me. I did my research and tried out a few things and found the 5 ways listed below that I have now been putting into practice for the last four or so month...
