I AM a registered nurse.

I AM WEARING my natural hair and a dress from Sheike from Chadstone mall. My bracelets are from Kenya, handmade from crafted material. My handbag and my shoes are also handmade from Kenya. My watch and choker are from Lovisa. My sunnies are from a little stall in the aisle of Melbourne Central. I love my colours. I always do bright colours. Even though it's a dull day I have to brighten it up.

MY STYLE IS fun and girl-next-door chic. I always wear clothes that accentuate my curves.

I ADMIRE THE STYLE OF the bloggers I follow online, particularly Peakmill, this American girl who does makeup blogging and YouTube vlogs.

MY FAVOURITE PLACES TO SHOP are on Chapel Street. I like going to Kookai, Sheike and Glassons, and sometimes I pop into French Connection and Zara, my new favourite.

MY BIGGEST FASHION MISTAKE WAS wearing a wig with braids. It was a fashion disaster.

WHEN I WAS A KID I WORE dresses and dungarees. I used to like wearing my mum's heels to practise walking in them.

I WOULD NEVER BE CAUGHT DEAD IN sweatpants or gym clothes going for lunch or shopping. I always love to look fabulous. Even going down to Coles or to see my friend, I just like to look good.
