Very hot, to an extent that some people are forced to either rush home for a quick shower during lunchtime or forego some hard earned cash for a swim in order to resume work fresh. Whatever your option is, it’s very important to stay trendy and efficient no matter how horrible the weather might be. When it comes to fashion, there are lots of things to consider, not just throwing things on and partnering different seasons at once. Sometimes we have to compromise with the weather in order to maintain a trendy statement and confidence at all cost. “The terribly hot weather hasn’t affected me because I know how to choose the right attire for it,” Cynthia Umulisa.
