One year after she shot to fame in Africa, Zimbabwean BBA alum, Pokello Nare has revealed her latest venture, a shoe collection! If anybody is surprised, that person must have been sleeping under a rock as Pokello has never hidden her love for shoes and she even talked about designing her own shoes whilst at the Big Brother Africa house last year.
Pokello who has a boutique aptly named “Addicted to Shoes”, revealed that she will be commissioning the shoe line on the 1st of December 2014 just in time for the Christmas holidays.
The interesting thing about the shoe collection is that fact that she named 10 pairs after her fellow female BBA contestants. According to her team, samples have been sent to the former housemates so that they can try them out and give feedback.

Pokello says the “Pink Bottoms”(as she calls them) were inspired by her three favourite designers: Sophia Webster, Sergio Rossi and of course Christian Louboutin!Although very popular on her own, Pokello naming the shoes after these former housemats is a very smart sales move as she has ensured that the fans of the other stars would patronize her shoes plus the buzz would be increased.
Prices for the shoes have not been released but what do you think about the shoes and which one is your favorite? Will you be buying come December?
