Beach getaway

By Wambui Thimba

When you go for a beach holiday, the last thing you want is to tug around bags of clothes. Travel light when you go anywhere warm by choosing pieces that work for day and night.

For an effortless beach look, wear light comfortable clothing like a sundress, flip flops, shorts, skirts and wrap-arounds such as kikoys and lesos.

Wear key accessories for a look that is chic yet functional. Don’t forget to carry a beach bag and a pair of sunglasses.

Take very little make-up. A moisturiser and waterproof mascara will be enough. Add sunscreen, some face powder and lip balm and you are ready for a fun and stylish holiday.

The weather in Kenyan beaches is mostly hot and sunny, you therefore do not want to wear any heavy clothing that will leave you feeling very uncomfortable.
