Ankara on my mind…

Ahh reminiscing about Lagos…I was there this summer to celebrate my sister’s wedding. I was in my first home country for 2 weeks and as always it felt like way too short of a trip. I had such a blast and not just because it was my sister’s party and I was thrilled to celebrate her union, but there is something about going home and spending time in Lagos with family and friends that just gives me life. And lets not forget the FOOD!!

It’s been a few weeks since I got back to Calgary and the beautiful summer weather makes you want to spend all your time outdoors. Here’s an Ankara dress that I had made by a local artist in Lagos. It’s an off-shoulder dress with the biggest ballon sleeves EVER and I LOVE it!

Paired with my red sandal wood ‘Sneh’ Igoville sunnies, I got for helping out with this amazing charity that provides free vision care to children in Nigeria to help curtail preventable blindness.

    I’ve been browsing online more than 2 hours today, yet
    I never found any interesting article like yours. It is pretty worth enough for me.
    In my opinion, if all webmasters and bloggers made good content as you did, the net will be much more useful than ever before.
