it is unfortunate that l have to write about this but it is so sad that threre are people who take advantage of models and am sure it is not right when people are doing things with a passion and at the same time want to earn from it now its not fair to take advantage of them.
l talk from experience and l know what am talking about,there are model agencies that never pay but always use models and earn from them,there are designers who dont pay for them..........
al name them tomorrow.

SUBSTANCE USE
Addiction is the dependance on the substance an it usually leads to serious health and social consequences for the users and those around them.
DANGERS.
Drinking regularly or excessively(more than 2units a day 4 women and 3 4 men)damages every organ in the body,1 in 3 heavy drinkers suffers liver inflammation and 1 out of 5 of these develops cirrhosis.even moderate drinking slows a person's reaction,affects verbal memory and brings insomnia and headaches and alot way more stupid things that you and me know from causing criminal activities,unsafe sex etc etc.
SIGNS
Ya thats what shocked me that having a couple of drinks after work might just become a habit which leads to starting to think about through the day and when they say you start arranging your life around your new 'habit'.Suddenly deep down you start feeling concerned about how much you are drinkin or using.you drink and get to wake up the next day thinking l shouldnt have drank al that alcohol or l shouldnt have popped al those pill,you know you got a problem.
WHAT TO DO
the 1st step is acknowledging your problem and admiting to yoursele before anything else
talk to a trusted friend or family member.
Tell yourself you need to put breaks on th habit
Go for an assessment with a specialist in substance addiction
Am sure with this and all support you can get from family and friends you wil get back to being fabulous!

Fabulocity!!!
Someone ones told me that l should never give up in life and should always go for what l want,so might say its selfish,inconsiderate or just simply mean but to look at it from my angle is when you want the best for you then 99.9% u got to b 3 of the above to just get through face A let alone B n C,so call it whatever you want l call it fabulosity.My first audition l went there not knowing if l was cut to be for that show ,l went there with my wired cat walk and never got picked but what made me happy is the photoshoot l rocked it with no makeup on,l was so proud of myself and l remember going home that day telling myself that l will make sure l work on my walk and after two days with me as my own personal chereographer went for another audition and was picked,l call that fabulosity.
For the past 1 year av been modeling as a plus size model sharing a runway with skinny models but l made sure they get to know who l am by rocking the runway like l was born on it,l call that fabulosity.
WHAT IS YOU FABULOUS MOMENTS?

BAGS BAGS BAGS BAAAAAAGGGGGSSSSSSS
A bag,hand badbag or a bag you carry to accesorise your outfit can break you or make your outfit,a bag create a huge statement on what you really are made of,fashionistas know their bags and you can easily spot 1 from a crowd just by the look of her bag,l tend to like big bags that really can carry almost everythng from makeup to spare underwear(u never know when you gonna need one :-))my boyfriend always teases me that it can even fit a 21 inch screen,but a gal gotta do what she has,when it omes to my bags l choose them with alot of care l used to like gucci when was still in high school then it just grew out of me when my mum bought me my 1st jimmy choo bag,it was like being born again because from then on l love my jimmy choo's..........also got a sick fittish with lui vitton l cant put my hand on it but lui is just glamour their small bags mek me want to carry a smaller bag and finally l love my channel,but just have in mind a bag can make your out fit or break it so be careful on choosing them......
now when a man got enough since of style to rock a bag the l think thats an A plus because most men thk bags are mostly just a women's thing well you should think again when you go shopping next time be bold enough and take that bag you have been eyeing all this while but think if you carry it you will look like a sissy..........xoxo fabulosity is all that counts

RIO PAUL
Most Africans have not yet embraced the role of stylists that’s why we get flops in public appearances especially with our celebrities and you end up thinking this is just not so good well we have stylist and they make some of the people they dress look like goddesses and lords.
Rio Paul born Paul peter is one of this wonderful that for their love of fashion have dressed the likes of Jokate ,Tatiana of big brother and many others bringing out a new age of retro trend that most end up just admiring.
Rio is so charming that when l did the interview with him is like l was just chatting with a long time pal he has so much going on in his life right now that am amazed, Assisting Jokate with miss Tanzania, creating a new clothing line and balancing all this with school is just major. l talked to him about everything with from relationships to dreams. his contribution on a fashion blog,www.fashionjunky.blogspot.com.
Rio born in a family of five lost his sister before he could even get to know her says what he holds of her are just stories he is told a bout her, though his parents are divorced he says they are his inspiration watching them et dressed for their night outs or even just a day to work made him interested in fashion all the way. he says he is to ‘BUSY’ to be in a relationship so for now is riding solo on the relationship boat(just wait my friend cupid hits u with his arrow am sure your tune will change soon).
On miss Tanzania he is working closely as a stylist for Jokate who doing a weeks series on the behind the scene which he seems to really enjoy besides where else is he to be if not near fashion? he is working and having fun at the same time because this is his life a life around fashion(if Rio was among the Greek gods then am sure he will be Riolisis the god of fashion)
Talking on designers in east Africa he says the industry is really growing at a very fast pace that its inspiring to anyone starting out, talking about John kaveke designs from Kenya and the collection he did for m-net face of Africa its hard to believe that we have come to get outfits that can be showcased in Milan fashion week and every one to be like all wow! he also thinks vaishali morjaria from Kenya who mixes her Indian culture with a touch of Africa in her collections just superb, other designers like Mustafa hassan Ali ,George Zamada of Zaidi creations, Christine Mhando (currently based in London) all from Tanzania and Sant Anza from Uganda are just inspiring.
His take on models is that although they are poorly paid in East Africa but Talent is there they work and do what they do best which is good because some like Ajuma,Millen,Emma too have had success out side and have been lucky enough to rock the international runways and magazine covers.
Pulse size models are all that the African woman is all about though it is yet to be really appreciated in Africa.(l than God for African fashion fair because pulse size models get a chance to rock the runways.)
Now on the Rio by Rio Paul spring collection he says his inspiration came from very many things from the likes of Alexander macqueen,Gareth pugh,D squared, dolce and Gabana to lady gaga, using the khanga ,kitenge,platic and kikoi as his fabrics he says its all retro and pre pi,this line was inspired by Jokate,Shaa,Sheria Ngoi,Terrence Sambo,Nurru Mohammed and of course Rio Paul.
His style? its all funky. punk ,classy and FABULOUS. All the outfits range from 40,000TSH onwards, planning to launch this line end of this year.
His take on women? Rio says heels combined with the right outfit make a fabulous and sexy woman.
There is more to watch out from Paul Peter aka Rio Paul just watch this space.

fashion
Some say it is a term commonly used to describe a style of clothing worn by most of people of a country. A fashion usually remains popular for about 1-3 years and then is replaced by yet another fashion. Even though there are a lot of changes in fashion, most people do not easily except the changes.
A clothing style may be introduced as a fashion, but its use becomes a custom after being handed down from generation to generation. A fashion that comes and goes is called a Fad.
During the mid-1800's, a mass production of clothing was made fashionable and available to more people for lower prices. This encouraged more people to wear more stylish clothes which is why we are wearing what we are today.
Clothing is made out of all types of matieral such as cotton, rayon, spandex, and polyester,and they are just a few used. Some clothing may even be made of 2 or more different types, this is known as " Blending."
Clothing can be decorated or designed with all types of images and colors. The designs can either be embroidered onto the fabric, woven on to the fabric, silk screened, or ironed onto the fabric to create a desired look. Some images that have been used to enhance an article of clothing range from a simple design on front of a T shirt to a famous printing that has been woven into fabric creating a colorful piece of art that one can wear.
some say is a term usually used in a positive sense, as a synonym for glamour, beauty and style it is also applies to a prevailing mode of expression, but quite often applies to a personal mode of expression that may or may not apply to all.
