“I’ve
had girls before where I just, you know, disappeared. I know, it’s
bogus. But I just stopped calling, stopped returning her calls. Just
ended all contact without a word.”

Fashionistas often have hearts of gold with matching earrings and a
bag to go with it which leads many of us to be too lax with our money.
Well ladies, it’s due time we closed our purses and smartened up.
Here’s a few things NOT to do with your money:
1. Buy Now, Pay Later. It’s so easy to whip out
your Visa so you can take those hot new Giuseppe Zanotti home with you

“I’m just going to put this one thing on my... Continue reading ...

Carmen Colle, 61, had argued that Chanel took a sample of a newly

The court threw out the counterfeit claim but ordered Chanel pay the
hefty damages fine for "abusive termination" of her contract. However,

About Me
Utamaduni is the Kiswahili word for “tradition” it is often used to refer to culture and tradition. Africa’s traditional culture has been forgotten in so many ways and the purpose of utamaduni wear is to revive African fashion and style in a very unique way by merging today’s ever changing trends with traditional fabrics, accessories and essence. On this Blog I will share my thoughts and points of interest in life; I welcome all of you to share with me utamaduniwear@gmail.com or post comments.
