Kuda Katanha is a Zimbabwean model based in Philadelphia, PA who launched her career only in June of 2010. Less than six months later, she's already featured in photo shoots and beauty pageants for clothing labels in New York, NY and even came in as a finalist at the Miss ZimUSA 2010 pageant in Washington DC. And to celebrate it all, well, she just released a calendar for her growing legion of fans!

The African Queen, as she is known in the world of entertainment, is a petite 20 year old beauty who played basketball, soccer and netball, and even joined the swimming and track & field teams while attending Avonlea Primary School & Mabelreign Girls High in Zimbabwe. After her family relocated to the United States when she was 13, Kuda also added cheer-leading to her list, cheering along some veeeeery lucky athletes at Downingtown East High School in Pennsylvania. She credits her love for sports and the outdoors directly as a catalyst that keeps her looking and feeling catwalk ready.

Outlet Shopping

Honest-to-goodness outlet brands and prices, not the type you find in surplus shops where most of the items have their tags cut, or have the wrong size, or if you’re unlucky, fake items that are being passed on as originals. I recently visited this mall and was pleasantly surprised to see that it has outlet stores.
Across Mango outlet is an store for Benetton, Sisley, and Nike. I found the prices still a bit high for an outlet store even though most were at least 50% off. The selection was limited so I went to the next outlet store: Plains and Prints. At this outlet store where items are sorted by color, what you see is what you get. Most items are either the last piece or the last size. All items are at 50% off although there’s no sign that says so. I had to ask the sales lady which ones were on sale and she told me that everything was half the price tag. There’s supposed to be a Guess outlet store but when I went to both stores (the one for kids and the other for adults), I couldn’t find any item that’s priced outlet store.

Drivestyle for Her and Him.

The tapered Ladies' Frontwoman Jacket and the Men's Frontman Jacket will rock any outfit - sporty or elegant. These versatile garments are really two jackets in one and can be worn either as a cool street-style jacket or as an elegant blazer. Three interchangeable badges and a rigid collar with a characteristic bonnet-stripes design make it easy to change the look of the jackets. Two outside pockets offer plenty of storage space while on the road, and there is a special pocket for the MINI key. Made of soft cotton, the Ladies' Campus Sweat Jacket in light grey and the muted dark grey Men's Campus Sweat Jacket feature the popular college look. The casual sportswear jackets with a tonal cut and sewn Union Jack motif on the back are sure to draw glances with features such as a "MINI Rocks" badge and a Union Jack embroidery print on the upper sleeves. Further details include scratchproof press studs. The black Ladies' Stage Light Longsleeve and Men's Stage Diver Longsleeve cut a fine figure on any stage. Feminine cut, shiny "MINI Rocks"

electric guitar motif on the front and Union Jack print on the left sleeve are the highlights of the women's style. With its "MINI Rocks" print and blue contrasting seam at the shoulders, the high-quality long-sleeve shirt for men puts rock 'n' roll in the wardrobe. The Ladies' White Jack T-Shirt and Men's White Jack T-Shirt reliably deliver British understatement with their tonal cut and sewn Union Jack on the front. The black Unisex Brit Rock Cap with its matching Union Jack on the left and two removable and individually usable pins complete the outfit.

Fashion Highlights for Women.

The sleeveless Ladies' Warm Me Up Vest is perfect for keeping warm in the colder months. The sporty red vest attracts attention with its shiny patent leather look and is the ultimate eye-catcher. It is water-repellent and features two practical outside pockets and a zipper. The soft single jersey lining in dark grey ensures a high level of comfort while creating a colour contrast. Typical MINI: the white brand logo on the breast and the tonal Union Jack embroidery on the back. The Ladies' Speed Rock Polo captivates with its excellent fashioning, carbon finish and vintage-look "MINI Rocks" print on the back. The MINI logo on the breast and red racing stripes under the collar lend this classic polo shirt an additional touch of class.
