wanted: zulu rose

zulu rose: tees



(get it here)

this tee makes us happy because it's a precious little reminder of the manic hustle bustle of lagos. not that there's anything intrinsically chaotic about the tee in itself; it just takes us back to the okadas, women in their wrappers, the sun...basically, the little things that are stand-ins for lagos in our homesick minds :) according to zulurose.com, 'the zulu rose line has the restless energy of modernity juxtaposed with the power and charm of traditional symbolism'. fabulousness! we encourage you to take a look here. while we can't afford this tee just yet, we found two on sale here and here that you just might like.

I love the illustration on this t-shirt! It's very different but at the same time equally as empowering. A "Mama Put" t-shirt would be fitting to this series due to the delectable food choices these women offer the Nigerian masses.

I really like the tee but its just too much money. I know its unique and all but designers really need to get a grip! That thing probably didnt cost up to $10 to make.

Good job for spotting them though.
