The long rains season is here and I am so excited, I don't know what exactly excites me about the rain but I love it when it's wet. Apart from making your world smell fresher, the rainy season gives you a chance to remove all those great clothes that have been holed up at the back of your closet because it was too hot to wear them. Stuff like cute sweaters, leg warmers, nice cozy cotton boots and most of all those fashion items called...scarfs. Scarves come in different sizes and shapes, you can have square scarves, rectangular, round scarves, and triangular scarves. Some scarves have hemmed edges, fringed edges, and fused edges.

I have been seeing the ruffled shoulder tops everywhere in town and so i decided to write about them since it seems it is becoming a rend in Nairobi. I have seen several colors, designs and even different ruffled designs on the tops.
They look stylish and further more just add a playful, seemingly effortless sense of style to the wearer. It cab be a Ruffled One Shoulder Top, a Ruffled shoulders dress, either short or long. Ruffles make an outfit look great as they have greater details.

Stella McCartney's recent runway collection wasn't the only Spring debut she had to worry about. The designer has spent the last two years working on the uniforms for the 2012 British Olympic team and finally unveiled them Thursday.
McCartney said that the uniforms started with a meditation on the Union Jack, the flag of Great Britain. "For me it's one of the most beautiful flags in the world and it was important for me to stay true to that iconic design, but also to modernise it and present it in a contemporary way," she said. "Ultimately, we wanted the athletes to feel like a team and be proud with the identity we created."

To that end, McCartney infused her athletic gear with the same attention to detail and craftsmanship that goes into her ready-to-wear. The entire kit, which is composed of nearly 600 different pieces created in collaboration with Adidas, will be distributed to the over 900 athletes who make it on the team.

After much anticipation, Adidas has just revealed its 2012 Olympic uniforms for Britain designed by Stella McCartney. The uniforms, which took two years to create, highlight a modern take on Great Britain's Union Jack flag. “The first place to start on a project like this is to look at the Union flag," said McCartney. "For me it’s one of the most beautiful flags in the world and it was important for me to stay true to that iconic design but also to modernise it and present it in a contemporary way." The designer injected her own fashion-forward spin on it via clean lines and and a less literal take on the flag. "Something that was very important to me was to try and use that very iconic image but to dismantle it and try to soften it, break it down and make it more fashionable in a sense," said McCartney.

Trend Alert – Suspender Tights. From superstar Rihanna, and now even Selena Gomez, have both been spotted rocking the look of suspender tights. A sexy high fashion look that seems as if it’s not going anywhere anytime soon. I admit that this is one trend I definitely want to try, but I will have to wait until the right time to do so. You definitely can’t wear suspender tights everywhere. For those won’t don’t already know, this trend was very popular a few years ago in Europe, and it looks like it’s now making its way to the states.
