Harare women boutiques popping up!

Let us go back to when I started this blog…major boutiques were Little Harrods in town and Borrowdale for the upmarket, Timeless Apparel in Arundel and Joyce Chimanye gave us dose of African print chic in her Zuvva store in Sam Levy’s village.

OH how things have changed!

Perhaps the coming in of direct flights to major places in the world has given the opportunity for people to compete with the big dawgs of back then.

Let us face it: FastJet, FlyAfrica makes getting fabric a breeze in Tanzania.

Clothes from everywhere else…Europe, Turkey/England and Asia Beijing/Guangzhou are a breeze to get to with Ethiopian and Emirates landing in  Harare.

Ironically the economy has given options for consumers and the more people sell and sell. Given that I do not particularly enjoy shopping like I did…because wearing clothes is not easy with hips anymore.

Last year I noticed 3 boutiques catering for similar income and style groups pop up… I have to admit I have only been a customer for one store

Here it goes:

How I stopped biting my nails

It was back home from school, walking alone that I decided to make my nail biting a habit. I made that decision, …this is why kids need sports and after school play dates

There is something about Mel, her blog pictures are always very lively and she knows what colours are bright and vibrant enough for that chic look.

Boutique Critique: Arundel Village’s Eternity Timeless Apparel and Su’s Boutique

CASH STRAPPED OFTEN, current economics in Zimbabwe make it difficult for even the recent graduates to afford a designer and versatile wardrobe, so I decided to do boutique critique series on the blog. The idea is to give comparative analysis of places to get your fashion and beauty supplies.
