I feel a dull ache in my right shoulder, its familiar and I have
to admit, I have missed it. Aaah the small joys of fashion week!
So I
have been out of the game for a hot minute because I have been
working in film but it feels so good to be back! The dull ache in my
right shoulder comes from hoisting the camera up and down each time a
model comes down the runway and I love hitting that sweet spot where the
light is just right and the stride is on point and the........(you

Day 1 of the Lagos Fashion and Design week was a
bit of a shock because never have I seen such a huge crowd turn up for
day 1. I had to ask my other photographer friends if this was the new
normal and they seemed to agree that the crowd was very unprecedented
for Day 1! Usually people up the ante from day 3 upwards.
The show started hours after schedule but by the times the lights came up, the place was packed full, not one seat was left empty. I will discuss the show itself in my next post but first; street style!
Street style vibes were on another level
yesterday as there weren't too many over the top looks, there were a
few here and there but mostly, it was a nice mix of vibrant colors, bold
patterns and interesting textures. A guy rocked a stole with some bling
on it! I loved it
I hope to see more cool street style in the following days!
