Nigeria, my #1

Today marks Nigeria's 53rd year of independence. Every year I dress up: don ankara or slide a couple of chunky jewels over my wrists. I wanted to keep things fresh and streamlined this year, so I paired an earth green top with white trousers and heels. 

I took these shots with a new tri-pod. Next up, a shutter release remote ;]

My bag was purchased from Davis' Whole Earth Festival and I plan on using it when I travel. 

I really do love my origins. I pray for renewal and revival within as well as a chance to return to the humidity and palm trees sometime soon.

Stay true to yourself, celebrate all that you are, and those who have come before you.

Adioss.

- I'm starting a new job at an elementary school tomorrow and I'm planning on having this style be my first intro. It makes me look younger and slightly curvier. I prefer it to my wigs because it's much more carefree.
