The Spectrum Awards 2022


The Awards are a celebration of equality and creating opportunity for platforms to recognize the queer community and Kulture in Namibia. Being queer in the Namibian republic has proved difficult for many individuals and with little representation and support many end up feeling lonely or on occasions suicidal.

It is thus the reason we see a rise in organizations and platforms ready to advocate for and celebrate LGBTQIA+ life in Namibia, one such platforms is the new Spectrum Awards. The awards ceremony aims at creating visibility of the community, whilst creating opportunities and to motivate the community to work hard to be recognized through the various platforms available in their respective fields.

 "Our aim is to award every personality advocating for human rights and changing our society's culture whether or not they are LGBT+". 

The  first edition of the spectrum awards has well over 20 categories and they plan to increase the number of categories as the awards grow annually. All categories can be voted for through the link(Vote) in the Instagram bio of the spectrum or alternatively by sending the specific code of your choice to the number 996633. The Awards are being held on the 10th of December 2022 at The Bank Windhoek Theatre School Ausspannplatz (across the Bank Windhoek building in R. Mugabe avenue). Tickets to the event are at Web-tickets ONLY, let's all take some time to go and celebrate equality and an awarding of hard work.

Strap Bikinis Becoming a Mainstream Trend

From A-list celebrities, bloggers, models and Fashion designers. It is sure pretty much every class of Insta-renowned style individual has worn a strap two-piece lately. There are a couple of elements that impacted the most recent variant of the strap bikini. Nonetheless, the general '80s impact happening currently is significantly guilty. The high-cut-two-piece pattern, which was gigantic thirty years prior, remains closely connected with a strap back. Legs cut so darn high loan themselves normally to scanty inclusion behind. Other '80s swim crazes, for example, wearing chain belts and socks and tennis shoes with your two-piece(thong), are back as well. There's the strap one-piece. Assuming that you thought one-pieces were a protected area for full-inclusion, reconsider, the strap pattern doesn't choose not to retaliate tragically, and particularly as to any type of swimwear. As a matter of fact, there's truly a scope of ways of getting the look, from an exemplary ...
