Over the last two decades, the world has rapidly and intentionally become a global village, separated by distances and borders. The world has become interconnected more than ever before with the introduction of the internet. Using your mobile phone, powered by the internet, you can literally make a phone to anyone anywhere in the world. […]
For years to come, through generations and generations, the Covid-19 pandemic will perhaps be remembered and read about as the greatest threat to humanity across the entire world in the 21st century. It will be remembered for putting life as we know it on the verge of extinction, for bringing world economies—both big and small […]
We get so many things wrong in life and online shopping comes with no exception. How many times have you bought something from a physical store/shop or supermarket and reached home, tried it out and got disappointed in oneself. “I think I made the wrong choice or decision. I should have picked something else,” we […]
I don’t know about you but a lot of consideration goes on through my mind whenever I think and plan of buying an item online. A lot of consideration is dedicated to it, sometimes both consciously and unconsciously. Even if I may end up buying the item from a physical store rather than online, oftentimes, […]

I don’t know where our story eventually ended but I remember owning a khaki kaunda suit while growing up. I loved the suit more than anything else in my Sunday wardrobe. Three decades later and I still remember it like it was yesterday. That’s how personal we are with our clothes and that’s why taking […]
Whereas faded jeans are stylish and trendy, in most cases, faded clothes are a bust. A faded red, slinky camisole looks a sallow pink and sadly down-market. A bright black shirt that loses its color is simply gray. Let’s be honest, we all love to look smart and organized. That’s why we invest in ourselves, […]
There is a myth or misconception about laundry in Uganda that dates as far back as clothes themselves. I’m particularly not sure why a good number of Ugandans are not accustomed to the term “laundry” itself. Many find it complex a word to use or when used. When used, many are quick to associate it […]
