Miss and Mr East Africa Rehearsals

So yesterday I popped by the Mr and Miss East Africa rehearsals at club Volts. My friend is currently doing the PR for this event so invited me down to have a quick peep at what there is to come!

For those of you who haven’t heard of this competition, Mr and Miss East Africa UK pageants are unique pageants that promote beauty, philanthropy and entrepreneurship amongst young East Africans in and outside of the UK. As well as uniting East Africans through a common culture, Mr and Miss East Africa UK pageants are voices for African children currently working with various East African Children’s charities that care for orphans affected through HIV/Aids and abandoned children. The pageants also carry out a regular Feed The Street Children Programme through THE SHOUT CAMPAIGN founded by Pauline Long.


It was great popping by because I learnt a lot about East African people and culture. The contestants were then filmed for a talk show that comes on, on Sky called ‘Sporah’s Show’.

I fell in love with the below Maxi dress. The designer (as pictured) managed to put it together within 1 hour!!! Her label will be launching shortly so will keep you in the loop!


And in typical British weather style the rain came pouring down as I left the venue  Flip Flops in the rain was certainly not a good look!!!!-lol
