KITENGE FESTIVAL

This beautiful lady is wearing a Kitenge jacket and looks absolutely HOT!

To say I had FUN is without a doubt an understatement. To say I had A COLOSSAL AMOUNT of FUN is much closer to the truth. I absolutely enjoyed myself and from the look of everyone's face people were happy to be there.

Kitenge Festival is a celebration of the Kitenge/Ankara fabric and everything African. The vendors wowed us with everything and anything, name it and I would have pointed you to a stand or probably picked out a biz card from the collection I had and refer you to someone.

I was at the Art Caffe at the Village Market having my Cappuccino and plain croissant.....I know I know. But I already confessed I am an addict and the first step to recovery is acceptance! So as I was having my breakfast the music from the festival venue kept hammering (in a good way) that I was getting late and missing out on all the juicy stuff and I know how I don't like being the one to ask...''so what happened after?'' I like being the source. I went home and wore my Kitenge outfit and was back in like 30 minutes and just as I was entering the venue I could have promised (I am trying to avoid the word sworn ;-)) heaven gate's must have been bolted open because angels were everywhere!!!colorful angels! and they were floating in the air singing wonderful things in my ears and drawing .....okay, people were dressed for this occasion and the there was so much color in the air!

I love those shorts

I was in awe! Love the jackets and the shirt! and they designed them themselves. Too bad they didn't have a label so I told them to try ''Three Hot Dudes!'' ;-)
