Style tips

2) A white shirt and multiple colors of t-shirts are a must-have.

3) When you need to move from corporate to casual without stress, throw on a blazer.

What would you wear to alumni reunion?

 I’ll wear mixed prints (because I love vibrant colors), a short skirt, and tie top set from Zikorah Africa because I love the comfort and at the same time love to flaunt my great legs a little. Cleavage won’t hurt too.

Shoes – I’ll rock my outfit with strappy sandals from @mudfashion

A purse from @diyazcollections (in a subtle color and cute)

And for makeup, I love to keep it nude with glossy lips (they make my lips look fuller).
