HOT MESS!!

If I’m going to be a mess, I might as well be a HOT MESS!
UNKNOWN …

Hello, my gorgeous readers. I’m glad that you visited today and also hope that you are all well wherever you are in life. As for me, I thank God that I’m doing better than yesterday, that’s more than enough to ask. Today I’ll be coming at ya’ll looking like a HOT MESS!!

Today I’m coming at ya’ll in this pink look that I so much love. I love it so much for two reasons; One is that this look was the very first professional photoshoot that I did before moving to Italy. By ”professional” I mean that I had someone who is a professional camera guy take my pics, at a cost, obviously, and basically this was the beginning of bringing my dreams to life. I remember so well when and where I took these photos because they remain to be the starting point of the actualization of my dreams. Started with zero experience in photography but I’m glad the camera guy was so kind in directing my moves, poses, and everything until now I can say am an experienced model, LOL.

I never knew that photography cost so much so I budgeted a fraction of my salary to pay the photographer and I did the shoots every Saturday when I was off duty from work. I must say this though, I felt the ache paying for my rent and water bills, etc but for photography? Not at all!! This is the only major bill that I can say I paid and never felt a flinch. That goes to say that I loved what I was doing and I knew it was all worth it. If I was back in Kenya, I’d do it over and over again. Here in Italy is another story, photography costs an arm and a leg!!! Jesus!!!

What a hot mess …

The second reason I love this look so much is that, well, what can I say without sounding like a braggart ….. Okay, I have learnt over the years that some extents of ”humility” are much un-needed. We have to love ourselves and be proud too without sounding like narcissists. So yeah, I’ll say this, I looked damn hot in this shoot. Hence why I called it a HOT MESS!! Damn right!!

I wore this pink backless top and had some matching pink heels which I still have but they are the kind that would break your back, Achilles tendon, spine, and basically every bone if you made one-slight-wrong-move! The heels are cute indeed, they cost too much as well but who am I to pass a cute pair of uncomfortable yet elegant heels?? Yeah, this is the pain of being a woman, LOL.

To match it all up, with some basic black hot pants and wallah, we have a stunning hot mess look. I didn’t waste the look so I matched it with some poses and used well the space that had. This look is perfect for any brunch, lunch date, just as long as you park just close to the dinner table, lol. I really loved this shoot, the fire that I had was unmatched. I did this look on my birthday last year in a BLOG POST, if you find the time please read it through, I think I gave some good advice especially if you are in your 20’s.
