BECAUSE IT WAS NEVER EXPECTED


 When you are unable to associate any logical reason to your woes in marriage, you end up with no other choice, but that of blaming dark magic and witchcraft. Gorgeous,  charming and sexy Rachel was a brimful of pure natural beauty.

She had men crawling all over her as if she were some kind of milky way that houses the very earth we live on.  After a quadrillion abortion procedures, she eventually had to scrap her womb out of her body.  Now, she was facing the consequences of her choices and actions made in her youth. She had earned for herself all kinds of names: barren land, arid desert, just to name a few. For so long she had been blaming dark magic and witchcraft for her deficiency of the well- known sweet honey of matriage. But it seems she has a solution...

    Rachel's perfect master plan was set to motion. Over the next couple of months, she was going to pretend to be pregnant as she hunts for a baby to steal. Yeah, STEAL. She had put to halt all forms of intercourse with her hubby in hopes of fulling the soon -to- be- best deception in history.

     With a clever, yet lame excuse by all standards she convinces her husband to allow her to go to her hometown to give birth. In strictest secrecy with her accomplice, she held in her hands her longed for bundle of joy, a caramel skinned hefty baby boy. It seemed as though the gods weren't on her side, that same month her husband died.

     The mother of the stolen baby boy was a petty trader who had to travel far and wide in order to market her goods. Her work, one day, brought her into Rachel's house. Upon, seeing the little one year old boy, Martin, playing with his tiny motorcycle, she was certain that that baby was hers. Blood, they say, is thicker than water. She did not react in anyway that would have drawn suspicion or attention.

     Later that day, she reported to the police that she had found her missing baby in a rich woman's mansion. Rachael was arrested.
After thorough investigation,  it was realised that Martin was indeed the Trader's baby. This was further confirmed by Rachel's apologetic confession, but confession alone was not going to erase her jail term.

Let's make our youth fruitful instead of fruitless by making the right choices.

TOP FIVE TIPS TO STAY FASHIONABLE ON A BUDGET


Louis vuitton  handbags, rolex watch, topshop high waisted shorts , A- line skirts, levi jeans, denim jackets... cropped tops, we want them all. As fashionistas, we can spend our last bucks on really cool outfits and shoes, then drive around with our check engine lights on.


 For years, I have been thinking of ways of getting all of my fashion obsssessions met without robbing a bank or emptying my bank account.  Pointer alert, I would never rob I bank. So finally, I have come up with a kick- ass strategy that I am sharing with you today.

Build a budget

The basic rule that comes to mind is never to allow your expenditure exceed your income.  Second rule is to make sure you've cleared all loans and debts you might have incurred. Third, make a budget form, fill it each month and stick to it, more especially  the section for clothing and accessories.

Have a shopping list

Don't be an impulse buyer. Make a list what you need to buy and add the time and date you have to go for the shopping. Did I mention the fact that you have to stick to this list? Don't be in a rush to get this shopping list done, look through magazines,  go online, literally brainstorm about it passionately.


Save

Save as least as much you spend on clothes per month. There is always this security that comes with having little money stashed away somewhere. I've heard of the shopping savings account and I think it is totally cool. Also by saving you are powered to make bigger purchases in the future.


Have a style

Yves Saint Laurent once said that fashion fade, style is eternal.  And I couldn't agree more.  The first step to finding your style is identifying what you love when it comes to dressing.  Some of us are instantly drawn to the bold colours, some of us just love all things sports and some of us are conservative.  If you have a personal style, you would not be crazily dancing to the tune of  every trend that pops up. You become your own trendsetter. Importantly,  know your body shape and buy clothes that flutter it.


Know where to shop

Vital info alert! There are always shops that sell your much- loved designer clothes for less.  There are also boutiques that you could bargain to have a cloth half the price on the price tag. I have to stress on this point,  keep your receipts as this would help you in making your budget and actually guide you as to where to shop.


In a way,  we can have it all. It might not be as easy as pie but with commitment we can have it all.
