My Style!


In Suprise or Suspense!
Am still amused by how what we cover our bodies with is manufactured. In my Country Uganda, clothes are majorly from cotton which is grown naturally and then threads are joined up together to make one cloth that then is tailored into a shirt or trouser.

The African Way!
We have gone ahead to forest trees, all in search of cloth material. Bark cloth which is extracted from forest trees[see attached photo] is so common here in Uganda but the victims of this have been forests. It is stylish not to wear the common silky stuff but its hazardous to have a dessertified country, what is your take? Forests going down for the sake of style or something?

American Way!
Check out the Watercooler Wednesday!

Food for Thought!
1 Peter 3:3 - 4
Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothes. Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight.

I knew there'd be a blog knowing you'd gone to Javas where there is a wireless hotspot...dedicated you are...it is good so long as it does not consume you or become an obsession...I like the verse and how appropriate it was for your blog on fashion and forest...fashion consumes so many and so many are fashion driven, women who must have the latest, hottest brands on the market, guys who gone for a girl for the way she looks in a dress or because she wears what is pleasing to the eye...when God created man without clothes and looks at beauty inwardly.
