Our Little 'Thank You' Note!

MaFashio turned ONE today - 14th June, 2013 - and we've had a wonderful day! 

Amidst all the hustle and bustle of being normal "young women in their prime trying to make a living, to leave an impact", we have truly had a blessed day.

We are grateful for the support we receive, the smiles we have shared and the people who let us make their day by taking a picture of them. 

We are also grateful - as we continuously mention - for the opportunity to share our love for Fashion and People with you. 

It's not always the easiest thing to do, but we love to do it. 

We really appreciate every single one of you. :) 

Our Hope is to continue to shine a positive light on being an individual, and having your own unique identity - even if that includes spotting the latest trend! LOL 

We must say special thanks to: 

God, 

To our Pastor(s);

Our Mum and Dad for supporting us, even though half the time they don't know where we're going with this; 

Our little brother,Ira; 

Our extended family;

Silumesii Maboshe of Pencil Case Studios; 

The creative team at ETHAN KAED; 

Vincent Banda of KreativKingdom;

A lovely little lady called Mubanga;
