19 months new Nielsine Muthoni is arguably the youngest fashionista in Kenya if not in Africa. Forget about Tom Cruise's daughter Suri Cruise who started wearing high heels when she was 3 years old, Nielsine is not even 2 and her fashion is way better that most of our local celebrities.
As Urban Dictionary's defines it, a fashionista is a person devoted to fashion clothing, particularily unique or high fashion. A person not to be called a fashionista would be someone who obsessivly follows trends. REAL fashionistas do not believe in trends. That type of person would be more correctly labeled a fashion whore or a shallow bitch.
Nielsine's outfits are put together by her mom who's undoubtedly one of the top stylists in the country and also 2014 SOMA Award's most promising fashion blogger winner; Silvia Njoki.
To prove that Kenyans are actually interested in Nielsine's wardrobe, her Instagram account () that is only 2 days old already has over 350 followers, whereas mine that I created almost 2 years ago just hit 301 last night.
Silvia Njoki shares more about Nielsine's oufits on her blog which you can check out .
