New African Online Magazine (Kenya) ~ KASHA!
Meet, Nancie
Mwai! An Uber talented stylist whom i first met when she assisted me on
a fashion shoot for True Love East Africa magazine last year. Well, it
seems like Nancie has been working really hard behind the scenes and
recently launched a fresh, stylish and totally funkyfied online magazine
that is packed with fashion information from cover to cover.
Take a
moment and have a browse through it via the links below. You will be
able to tell at first glance that a lot of work went into putting the
magazine together. The photography and post production work on the
images is what makes this mag visually appealing. It appears to be quite
a comprehensive magazine compared to the other fashion and lifestyle
magazines currently in the Kenya market. The beauty of this magazine for
me is that it doesn't only feature fashion information from Kenya, it
explores fashion news, opinions and trends from other parts of the world
by for example, featuring fashion bloggers from other countries.
Along with a
blog type website, I think the online magazine concept will do well in
the ever growing Kenyan Fashion Industry. It was needed! It's time! So
go ahead, if you have any interesting African fashion news, from around
the world, that you would like to see featured in KASHA, that's the
name of the magazine, please feel free to get in touch with Nancie. I
like the overall look of the mag. Can't wait for the day it comes in
print!
The word 'Kasha' is a Swahili word for wardrobe! Very Apt!

Ford Supermodel Of The World ( Kenya - East Africa)
Ford Supermodel Of The World ( Kenya - East Africa)
In the past couple of weeks, I have had the pleasure of being involved with the Ford Supermodel Of The World competition, the East African edition through my PR and Marketing company Nairobi VIP Parties.
Like many years before it, this years competition license holder was SuraZuri Models, Kenyas top modeling and casting agency. The Kenyan fashion industry can boast one famous
Ford Supermodel Model title holder, Ajuma Naisenyana. This African
beauty went on to have a very successful fashion modeling career in the
European and America. She is now back in Kenya, looking to settle down
and get involved in the local fashion industry.
Ajuma
has always come back home during the annual Ford Supermodel competition
to show these young ladies some support. This year, she was part of
judging panel along with myself, proprietor of Surazuri Models
Lyndsey McIntyre, Tiphani Gist an American musician and fashion industry
enthusiast, Barbara Minishi a seasoned photographer to whom all the
pictures I have posted up on this blog are credited.
It was a long journey however, I believe we managed to scour the country to find the young ladies who we think (according to Ford Models NYC criteria)
could go and represent Kenya later this year, at the Ford Supermodel of
The World competition in New York, to compete for coveted USD250,000
contract!
Here they are!
We had a tie at the 2nd runners up position

See the crimes of fashion you'd probably rather forget...
With that in mind, each Friday we'll be taking you on a journey into the past, and into the bowels of the Fashion Police jail, to re-introduce you to some of the worst crimes of fashion the world has ever known.
