In celebration of Nigerias Independence Day, here are 6 times I styled Nigerian traditional attire for events I attended! AND I WONT EVER STOP 💚💚💚
From my graduation, to events I hosted and fashion week… there’s NEVER too much representation. 🇳🇬🦅
From the diaspora with love,
HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY TO US.

@fashionafricanow hosted "FASHION EXPERIENCE — DECOLONISING FASHION" (curated by @beatraceangutoola ) last Sunday and it was beyond beautiful. We laughed, we cried and most importantly: we learned. From each other.
Thank you to the entire team! They flew out designers and brought together likeminded fashion enthusiasts as well as industry persons who deeply desire to contribute in changing the current status quo. Long way to go, but we move!
Events like THIS are exactly what Germany needs to start shaping its global role within the industry. And especially to shape and challenge our understanding of what fashion in Germany looks like.

Besties, I wrote my FIRST commentary for @tushmagazine … on the 21st century relationship between dogs and their Hoomans 🐶
shout out to all the dogs in my life and on social media who served as an inspo — I hope you get the treats you deserve 😭
@fabianhart , THANK YOU for entrusting me with this opportunity and mentoring me all along — it was def a wild ride and I’m grateful to have done it with you 🎢
I wrote this dossier for @glamourgermany at the end of last year including a practical style guide, how to find your new (affordable) fav club and what your active week could look like.
What my research taught me: I’m absolutely NOT a chill community sports person 🤷🏽♀️ I love when you count me out…
My collectibles aren’t high fashion pieces. They‘re the locally manufactured ones that catch your eye immediately — and that you won’t see on anyone else anytime soon. Like these flared pants from a Lagos boutique I’ll probably never be able to locate again 🧚🏽♀️✨
Selfcare isn’t just skin care and bubble baths — sometimes it’s your gut! 🥦✨
For the latest @glamourgermany issue, I spoke with experts @mayrlife_official and @aspriva.health about how better digestion can change energy, mood, and overall wellbeing. Excited to share what I learned 🫶🏽
