February 2018, is a year to remember. It was the world release of the major studio blockbuster Black Panther movie. In the movie, you will find many African traditional clothing, languages such as isiXhosa, Swahili and historic African art. One of the most talked about African artifacts in the movie, are the Basotho Blankets. Which is a major milestone and a celebration. It's a wonderful feeling for the nation of Lesotho to see their beloved heritage to be on the big screen. Now, whether the nation has directly benefited from any of the $1,3 Billion is story for another day, and please do not ask which day?!. Let's focus on the good, the bad and the ugly will be for...
The Basotho Blankets are indeed beautifully poetic. The first woolen blanket was a Gift. Even today in the 21st Century, giving or receiving a blanket as a gift is a big deal! It is a meaningful Gift, that the receiver cherishes, wears with great pride and holds on until the end of time.Â

TIME DOES NOT FLY
We have all heard the adage "every journey begins with a single step". In 2021, at XavahDah, as we continue to write and live our journey, intuition sets in. We begin to question ourselves, even doubt and at times, even question whether it's all worth it? Is it worth it to spend many hours planning, going through multiple photoshoots, sketching new designs, editing photos and videos. Is it all worth it to build a brand during a pandemic? Because, the journey is long and sometimes it feels like the step does not get us any where. Can you relate?
