    I'm so guilty of the hoodie, dera, and rights. I love you content. Truth be told though, you're up there. How many Kenyans can buy a cloth worth 4k for a home wear? You're lifestyle doesn't reflect the real wanjiku. Even if you say buy them polepole, I'm still sure 99.9% of us can't buy a housewerar for 6900. Anyway lanes.

  • @Rhenadhis
    @Rhenadhis 4 года назад +14

    First of all, get your deras resized, always, and not a straight up and down resize like the way the dera is sewn from the get but get a fundi to take your measurements and resize it with snatched waist and all. Secondly, deras are everything, they are life. I love them.

    @margaret8940 4 года назад +4

    😅😅😅, wow, this is a great presentation. Catherine, you look great in everything, even the Dera. You are quite a model. The levelled up look is "goals" because it's classy, decent and more appealing. I find the Dera (plus inner wear) very liberating to wear while doing house chores. It's also very comfortable but a decent Lady should put on inner wear while wearing it indoors or outdoors. The Dera = Feminine Fashion Freedom the African way. As Africans, we need to also love, guard and embrace our own cultural clothes. My sister recently told me she hasn't reached the age of wearing Deras when I told her I would buy her a Dera as a gift because that's the one thing I knew she doesn't own. I am only 3 years older than her and young too but that's when I learnt (the hard way) that sadly, Deras are judged in ways I didn't imagine and intentionally avoided by all means (by some some ladies). Challenge accepted 💪💃💃#womensecret

    Fashionable Stepmum, you are a breath of fresh air!😍 Just today, I stumbled on the video where your daughters were rating your outfits and I've been exploring more. I can so relate to this topic. I always choose comfort over style at home and....come close... (whispering) even when I go shopping!🙈 Dressing up for any event is a chore in itself for me but you are so right - I am more MOTIVATED when I'm dressed up.
    Now I'm encouraged to make more effort, especially during this lockdown. Keep making great videos and never let the haters get your attention. New subbie from London 😘
