oh so vintage…peter pan collars are making a come back.
yes i am still very much obssessed with shoes.
These last few posts are stolen from my friend “Miss Toitty”. I am just so taken by her love of fashion and colourful style.
Amazing.
MY NAME
“My name
Nomgqibelo Ncamsile Mqhibisa
Look what they’ve done to my name,
The wonderful name of my great grand mothers
Nomgqibelo Ncamsile Mqhibisa
The bereu-bereucrat was surprised’
What he heard was music to his ears,
“Wat is daai?Se^ nou weer?”
I am from chief Daluxolo Velay’godle of Emampondweni
Messiah please help me!
My name is so simple and yet so meaningful,
but to this man it is trash
He gives me a name convenient enough to answer his whim;
I end up being “Maria”
I, Nomgqibelo Ncamsile Mqhibisa!
END!!!”I remember reading this poem in my high school days. It moved me, sadden me and angered me all at the same time.
Say bye bye to acrylic tips and hello to colourful nail polish.
