HARARE – Ankara fabric got its name from a mispronunciation of the Capital or Ghana ACCRA which was central in popularizing this Dutch wax fabric. The fabric was trying to enter Indonesian markets and created a cheaper one, which was rejected by Indonesians but made its way into West African upper class and middle class culture.
HARARE – The word on the street is a new brand launch in Zimbabwe currently is RUBY KISSES Matte Foundation.
There are two types of foundation both Matte with one liquid moisturizer and the other non transferable.
Easy to apply with a sponge or the best is warm fingertips.
Where to find it NU FIFE AVENUE PHARMACY HARARE at 145 fife Avenue and Cnr 5th Street (Opposite NANDOS Restaurant)

HARARE – When you think about makeup foundation it’s not always about heavy coverage. Some days a light tint for a makeup free look (which is just plain makeup).
Well we got the solution RUBY KISSES BB CREAM for just $15 on promotional pricing.
HARARE – Hello Darlings, writers block and life becoming overbearing had me wanting to write this for weeks. So here we go, as a company we decided to go fully African Print when an aunt who closed her African retail sent her stock.
HARARE – Ever since I decided to put African Print clothing as the headline item in my shop I have a lot of mixed feelings about how clients feel about it. I would say a certain generation and group within generations think of it as a backward, Old Nollywood attire.
HARARE – Announcing a brand new style from HAMBA. I used to love experimenting with my designs and passion projects and this week I decided to give it a go. I love 50s style thinking Marilyn Monroe Old Hollywood style meets the coasts and safari of Africa.
Print clashing is one of my favourite things to do because it usually goes wrong, imagine colour and shape blocking. However fashion and style are different, style is effortless and does not come from external opinions but from within.
Take a look at my pieces
HARARE – So here I was random passenger side in my friends car and I kept seeing these signs. I was definitely hungry and ready to eat, my friend on the other hand has a big breakfast before Sunday Church Service.
HARARE – Just as I thought let me do a photoshoot before I post new content let me share what I have been up to regarding my HAMBA African print clothing business.
This year I have been more about mass production of main styles to increase output. Ever since I started outsourcing tailoring services off site I had to streamline my costs.
So this is what I have made so far
When someone suggested I bring back the blog I thought to myself, why should I share content when I am going through some rough patches. However this blog was never about the fab life, it was sharing the realities of my life which are not always rosey and as simple as can be.
Blessed to have this opportunity
It all seemed halted when the lockdown due to the corona virus COVID19 took place right before the hip hop battles we made jackets for. The BATA mic gang paid for some dope HAMBA jackets as a reward for the battle winners.
It was until Noble a Rapper got into an online rap battle that we heard of him. So many things happened in the arts and the rap beef was what we were occupied with for some time before the next viral music dropped in.
We saw the bomber in full hip hop styling.
We took some pictures from his Facebook to show what he wore on stage.
