Born is a leading manufacturer of comfortable and stylish footwear for men, women and kids. Fashion just isn’t that interested in glamour right now. The defining trends of the past decade have been athleisure and its ironic cousin, normcore. I keep thinking of what Anne Hathaway’s character in The Devil Wears Prada would wear if the film were made today. My best guess is Everlane. She’d run errands for her demanding boss in eco-cool Veja sneakers instead of Jimmy Choo stilettos. Following Brazil’s proclamation of independence from Portugal in 1822, Brazilian national identity was thrown into sharper relief, but its constituent parts remained largely unchanged. A small European elite still dominated Brazil’s political and economic life, although gold had replaced sugar as the principle source of wealth (coffee would later replace gold). But the Brazilian masses still consisted of black slaves and free people of color who labored in gold … Read the rest

Unlike women, men are usually less fussy when it comes to clothing but you must spend time and even become fastidious when selecting the wedding suit. Listening to the hubbub and linguistic sound systems emanating from present ay South Africa, one is struck by how African South African are allowing themselves to be Anglicized even though their programming may be for that particular language audience and content-controlled speech producing colonized thoughts. With the coming of the African-led government, we see this phenomena in some of the Kasi Slang emerging from the rural areas and far-flung and remote place where the same words used in the big metropoles, but with a different context and meaning suited for those regions in the hinterland. 1971The National Professional Soccer League (NPSL) launches the Keg League (later renamed Castle League), sponsored by South African Breweries.

Everyone knows the fashion world is constantly changing and this can only mean that the list of fashion mistakes is constantly changing as well. Such a design is impossible of realization, even though former colonies continue to honor the tongue of the mother country as the prime foreign language in high school curricula. We are not at all talking of a radical cultural severance. Because of the huge difficulties to be overcome in mastering the African linguistic mosaic, some observers in Europe are convinced that we will not be up to the challenge, that we will be unable to undertake a change requiring so much human energy, so much intellectual lucidity, so much creative thinking. It is worth noting why attention grabbing companies use celebrities to advertise their products. All age groups are attracted to television, films and radio personalities and like to be identified with them. The truth is … Read the rest

If you are a single man, you may well want to find women who like men wearing pantyhose. This is a style that originated in the 80s ( as part of the grunge music) with a heavy emphasis on layering and oversized silhouettes with a casual nonchalant attitude. The staples of this style include leather jackets, flannel shirts, metallic jackets, ripped denim, crop tops, cool slogan t-shirts, combat boots, fishnet stockings, beanies, mom jeans, and slouchy sweaters. Baggy, torn and messy clothes are constants in this working-class fashion style. Of all the beauty skin care tips for staying young, one of the most important involves using sun protection. Ideally, you should stay out of the sun as much as possible – this includes tanning. If you cannot avoid going out, make sure that you wear plenty of sunscreen. Many beauty skin care products are now starting to include minimal sun … Read the rest

Moroccan argan oil (also known as nut oils) is a valuable natural oil, which is rich in vitamin E, omega 3 fatty acids and omega 6 fatty acids, argan oil can be used as beauty products, face massage, nails, hair and body, can also be used as food. If we see us as different and as ‘tribes’, other Nations will take our everything because we are too busy outdoing, out besting, pulling each other down like crabs in a barrel, they will own our everything, whilst we look on in puzzlement as to who the authorities about our culture are-but it will not be us the indigenous of South Africa. If one gets to have a holistic look at our cultural photographs or listen to our music and watch our dances, one is awestruck by this magnificent culture, so variable, and yet uniquely similar and the same-One Nation Of Africans … Read the rest

T – Shirts that are made for men should be worn to enhance your body size in order for you to look like a large build man and not a boy. Away from undertaking such a therapeutic role, Emma looks after her wellbeing in the simplest of ways. Toast makes me feel comfortable, with peanut butter and a hefty bit of Lurpak,” she says. And, therein lies the power of Emma, just like Diana, she is relatable. 1966 The anti-racist SASL (South African Soccer League) folds due to lack of playing grounds. Many still need the affirmation of their white contemporaries to be writers or whatever… We have these types of White authorities who dictate to our African elite, and the African bourgeoisie(and they are called so today in south Africa), are too eager and ready to please and comply with the dictates of their Masters-and be accepted as being … Read the rest

Carol Tuttle’s personality type test called Energy Profiling can accurately determine your personality and beauty type by assessing your physical facial features. Cultures are not monolithic They are very complicated so, study more than one area (e.g., languages, dialects, food, rituals, customs, etc.). I used all the synonyms above because they clearly describe our miserable, decrepit and wretched condition, given that our country of Mzantsi is the richest in Africa, in so many ways, and we are at the bottom of any end and every development and progress that is taking place in our country, and we stand by the sidelines and watch other people, who are not of our land, become better, rich, educated, and successful. Although vest designs have been around for a long time, hundreds of years in fact, they have seen a resurgence in popularity, for both fashion design and utility. If you are a fisherman, … Read the rest

Celebrities are the reason that slim jeans have become so popular, women have always worn tight jeans but recently men have started to as well. Churches are fleecing their parishioners; the much touted and oft abused concept of Ubuntu is no more existent in our divided and shattered African collectives; our children do not even know our part of African history, customs, cultures, traditions languages and other sacred rites and their practices; and we, the present elderly, are not even helping them, nor we ourselves are functionally capable of capturing our culture, customs, traditions and the whole bit. It is incumbent on us that whenever we begin a yarn about our history, we should make do with what we have and are experiencing, than try too hard to become irrelevant even to our intended audience: The African masses. At the same time, we need to take a hard and critical … Read the rest
