**Fashion Dos And Don'ts - At The Office**

What are the biggest don'ts for a traditional office?
I think that when you are going to work at the office, there are traditional don'ts which include no sweatpants, no sneakers perhaps, no ripped jeans, nothing that is sloppy or too messy. You don't want to wear anything that is too revealing. You really want to stay within whatever the dress code of the office is and make sure that it is appropriate.

What types of tops are appropriate for the office?
I think appropriate tops for the office are definitely a button down, a v-neck sweater, a nicely fitted scoop-neck or boat-neck works. You want to stay away from t-shirts because it's a bit too casual and you want to stay away from tank tops that show off too much.

Camisoles-an office wear do or don't?
I think a camisole can be worn only when it's worn under something else. You can layer it with a V-neck sweater. Or you can layer it underneath a cute fitted office jacket. Anything more than that is just too revealing.

Strapless tops-an office wear do or don't?
Strapless tops aren't even an office don't for just the office, they're kind of a don't for everything. They're ill-fitting, they're uncomfortable, they spill out everywhere, and they should just be kept to the disco, not the desk.

**THE DREAMER**

What are stars for if not to be aimed at
What are we here for if not to believe that
are you comfortable behind the limit
and always turning back around so fit in
people scared to go after what they want
they just wanna walk on where the light on
too scared they might fall
that’s why nothing ever happens at all, so I ain’t letting-
go no days without me scheming
I get lost for a while without caring who see me
think where I wanna be and let my mind lead me
If I can feel it, why can’t I live it?
don’t wanna drawn in life I wanna elevate
I’m baking a bigger cake, so need a bigger plate
but when you aim high, they call you a dreamer
They called Oprah the same, but now have you seen her

Chorus:
I don’t wanna wake up
I feel this more than life
What I feel is more than life
They call me such a dreamer

**TAKE IT BACK by STL**

Chrous:
. Heshima kwa huyu dada, Jamani ametoka far
Tunawakilisha and We're taking it back just taking it back
Rumblin’s beat -we're on fire, STL, Michelle aha
Tunawakilisha and, We're taking it back just taking it back

I'm on my way back home
Already packed my bags can't wait to get home
Clear everything else away
Don't wanna do nothing else but walk my way, I’m going
Back to Kenya, back to the fine weather
Back to grandma, ain't nothing else I'd rather
Sit on the porch and drink grandma's porridge
Talk to my elder, listen while they speak knowledge
Next morning be on my way to Nairobi
Do another song bet now they all know me
And magazine can write all kinds of bullshit
But let me tell you this, STL will always do this
Lift your hands swing them around like a million buck
Make sure everybody here knows what’s up
It's been a while now finally I'm coming home
With the perfect beat, go a head and shake it all

**Sauti Sol - The Face of Converse!**

Sauti sol, started with love for music and the love has been spread through their music and we have appreciated and noticed. Luckily we were not the only ones noticing.

Penya Africa is proud to announce the endorsement deal between Sauti Sol and the international brand Converse, which in Africa is distributed by Factory 55.

Factory 55s core objective is to increase brand image, building customer awareness and a clearly defined position in the minds of the target audience.

Factory 55 is driving its attention to endorsing young creativity by sponsoring the youth market in Kenya and in doing so, recognizes and therefore endorses Sauti Sol as the CONVERSE ALLSTAR brand ambassadors -“All STAR ARTISTS”, as a group that will communicate the Converse brand messages because they believe that the ALL STAR brand needs to be affiliated with an already recognized and award winning group (Sauti Sol) for their sense of style and fashion and primarily also because it believes that they are STARS in the essence of the meaning.

**THE IRONY OF LOVE**

Loving the right person at the wrong time,
Having the wrong person when the time is right,
And finding out you love someone right after that person walks out of your life…

And sometimes, you think you are already over a person,
But when you see them smile at you,
You will suddenly realize that you are just pretending
To be over then just to ease the pain of knowing that
They will never be yours again…

For some, they think that letting go is one way
Of expressing how much they love that person…
In my opinion, some are afraid to see the one they love
Being held by someone else…

Most relationships tend to fail not because of
The absence of love. Love is always present…
It is just that one is being loved too much and the
Other is being loved too little…

*Love & Pizza* by Wanjeri Gakuru

Falling in love is like having that first slice of pizza.
Before you venture into the restaurant
you've already given serious thought to finally eating pizza.

You hear the criticism and praises
but you feel that you are ready to make your own judgment.

So you get in line
hoping you've chosen a type that will live up to your expectations.

You make your move and quickly dart to your booth,
hoping you've made a good decision.

As you watch the waitress walk towards your with that hallowed plate held up high,time slows down as your heart
and stomach flutter in anxiety and excitement.

*Days* by Wanjeri Gakuru

I'm gonna be a mama some day,
my belly will swell and the world will tell that within

A beautiful being is slowly forming tiny toes and fingers,
filled with angelic shine, her mama's smile and her papa's eyes,

I'm gonna get published one day,
golden calligraphy will spell my name,

' Excellent work', the world will proclaim
as shelves will fill with my soul's voice in paragraph and tense,

Believe in Love

You wait your whole life looking for it,
It is there,has always been there
But you don't believe in it anymore
Because you have met with the wrong version of it
Now you might lose out on the greatest of its kind
Because you won't let go of that which is hurt you

I AM AGAINST DOMESTIC VIOLENCE

While u SCREAM at ur woman
There's a man wishing he could talk softly to her ear...
While u HUMILIATE, OFFEND,and INSULT her
There's a man flirting with her reminding her how wonderful and beautiful she is...

HALUA ALBUM LAUNCH
