No! I said "Skorts", not "Skirts"!

So, what are Skorts anyway?  It is a garment that was originally designed for female golfers in the 60's as a way to give them more freedom to move, while at the same time, preserving the soft white lines of a skirt.

It was a fashion trend that peaked in the 90's, and in like manner, departed in the 90's just as fast!  The idea of a "skirt" combined with "shorts" did not catch on as the inventor had hoped, because oddly enough, wearing shorts with a fabric panel resembling a skirt is no different than wearing a pair of "culottes", or a "scooter" or even a "skant"...as they are all alike in concept. 

Some may refer to "skorts" as "a skirt with a pair of shorts hidden underneath", while others refer to them as "a pair of shorts with a layer of fabric in the front, made to look like a skirt".  Either way, the history of the "skort" was unmemorable and short lived.  Several attempts over the last couple decades have been made to try and revive this dying trend, but it's been to no avail.

Well the dawning of a new day has arrived, and the "skort" has reared its two-faces once again, and women everywhere are embracing the trend! Fashionistas and celebrities are also embracing this trend. The freedom and comfort that the "skort" provides makes it a great choice for women everywhere.  The female tennis player, golfer, gardener, cheerleader, trendsetter, and even the swimsuit model share a special affinity for the "skort."

Besaz Boutique has incorporated this trend into their online fashion selection on its website, and has made several different "skort" styles available for purchase.  One of the surprisingly popular styles being worn today is the "ZARA Skort".  This is the hot item for the moment, and many of the celebrities have fashioned this item to fit their own taste and style.

So no matter what you think about the "skort", it has officially made it's way back into fashion's good graces...and it looks like it just might be here for a while!

Online Shopping in Ghana

A recent article by CNN Business said:

"In many parts of Africa,...shopping online and picking up goods at centralized locations are quickly taking center stage."

Ghana is no exception to this statement. Lately, as a mobile and digital revolution continues to sweep the country, there has been an absolute surge of buying online in Ghana. This has totally revolutionised the way people obtain their goods.

Ghana Business News reported that in 2012, 4.2 million Ghanians were already internet users, and that number is steadily increasing. More and more of these users are shifting from traditional markets to web markets to make their purchases. Purchasing goods like electronics and fashion items online is much more convenient, as users can place orders from the comfort of their own homes, from their desks at work or from their mobile phones.

Interestingly enough, e-commerce transactions between consumer and online stores are changing the face of Ghana's entire economy. Now, there is less face-to-face local trading and greater access to trading digitally with the same neighbors and even people on the other side of the globe.
