Decisions, decisions, decisions. Fashion decisions can be a delicate process, especially if, like me, you consider the weather before getting into something. Not that I’m a fashionista, but I am precise about what to wear because I love comfort and once in a while I like to feel exceptionally good.

A few weeks ago, I decided I would keep off my usual T-shirt and jeans; and besides, this unforgiving sun and unusually hot Nairobi has not given us much choice but to try to be as lightly dressed as possible.
