Grace Nakimera is a popular Afropop singer. She has become known as Kawonawo, after her latest hit, which has made her not only a concert favourite but also an icon in perseverance and tenacity, just as her song preaches. This has put her fashion sense in focus too once again.

Below, Nakimera dons a black-and-silver largely leather outfit. She claims that the outfit cost her about sh545,000 from several places about town but anyone can indeed achieve the same look for so much less.

From Sylvie’s Boutique, Nakimera bought the leather pants and shoes for sh60,000 and sh85, 000 respectively. The top cost sh50,000.
The horn bracelets cost sh30,000 apiece (that is sh120,000 altogether) the ring cost sh30,000.
The double weave and styling of her hair costs sh120,000 from the Pinky’s Salon. Altogether, Nakimera spent sh545,000 on her look.

If you want Nakimera’s look for less than that, visit outlets at Mutaasa Kafeero, Mini Price or Mukwano shopping arcades.

There, ladies’ pseudo-leather pants cost sh30,000, tops with silver detail go for sh20,000 and shoes can go for as low as sh15,000 a pair.

Style your hair at the majestic Plaza for sh50,000 using synthetics rather than human hair weaves.

One can still get Nakimera’s very accessories from uptown but for less money.

Head to the Zara’s Accessories on Jumbo Plaza and you will get bangles for sh5,000 apiece, and rings cost sh15,000.

A necklace Nakimera’s can be bought from the Cinci Co. at Kamu Kamu Plaza for sh30,000. Altogether, one can achieve Nakimera’s look for sh180,000. That is up to sh365,000 less than she spent on it.
