Weāve been a little quiet lately, taking a well-needed rest, resetting, and thoughtfully redefining some of your favorites.
We also took our first road trip of the year to New Orleans for the @beaucouphoodoo Festivalāan unforgettable experience filled with incredible energy. Iāll be sharing more on that soon.
Next stop: New York š¤
Weāll be at the @blackgirlartshow this Saturday, March 28th, in the 5th year. If youāve been or even heard about it, you already know.

If youāre in New York and would love to attend, send me a DM.
Happy New Year everyone āØ2026āØļø
š¤ Cheers to new beginnings š„
I just wanted to pop in and say thank youĀ truly for all the love, support, likes, shares, comments, and for showing up in real life. It means more than I can put into words.
I know we havenāt shown up on here the way I wanted to, but the truth is about 89% of you, we met last year at fashion events, pop-ups, shows, conferences, and real-life moments. And Iām genuinely grateful for that connection.
This community means everything to me.
This year, I want to show up here more, more storytelling, more behind the scenes, more of the journey, the process, the wins, the lessons, and of course⦠more Ro2kcollection.
Pray that thisĀ new year brings us peace, clarity, abundance, and favor. May everything we touch grow, and may our heart stay full. Amen š¤
Thank you for rocking with me, believing in the vision, and being part of this Tribe š„
Welcome to 2026. Ready to take action!
Stepping into the new year with gratitude, purpose, and style.
On stage during #AfriKin: African Fashion Week #Miami 2025, this moment captures the energy, creativity, and global African excellence that continues to inspire our work.
Wearing a statement jacket by Sierra Leonean designer Roky Sesay of @ro2kcollection , a classic white tee by Hugo Boss @boss , Egyptian skorts collected during my journey through Egypt last year, boots from RABA World @raba_world sourced during @africon.global in #Atlanta, and eyewear by @marcjacobs sourced in #Venice, a true reflection of Global #Africa and the diaspora in motion. Thank you for trusting me to rock your designs.
As we welcome 2026, we look forward to seeing you soon at our AfriKin 2026 events. With our annual experiences returning and exciting new adventures ahead, we canāt wait to take you along on the journey.
Thank you for your continued support, belief, and love.
