BACK TO BLOGGING ! ONE YEAR BRIEF RECAP !

Wow ! It's been exactly  one year since I last blogged here ! Had to retrieve my password from Google !
So many things have happened in the AsakeOge world.

August 2012 we showcased at Africa Fashion Week London where we had an exhibition stall.

 It was amazing ! The turn out was fantastic...this picture below was featured on BBC China ! Plus we made a lot of sales so I was one happy madam at the end of the day.

























AsakeOge had a private fashion showcase for the launch of premier footballer, John Utaka's children foundation.
