True or nah? It’s okay if a close friend or an immediate family let’s you know… in a private place… when you’re alone… and can actually do something about it AKA re-brush, chew gum or the likes BUT what if that’s not the case? Maybe you’re on an outing, no not just any outing but…
Plum
I hope you had a great week! Mine was really sweet over here but I’m super glad it’s the weekend. Yesterday, I stayed in and read novels till my eyes turned dry and crispy because it’s not every time I get free time to leisurely readddd as I please. So yes, I dumped my phone…
Sky Full Of Stars
Because wearing a croptop in the cold is always a good idea right? Wrong. Wrong. Oh, did I mention how wrong I was? Haha, I literally slobbery cried my way through this shoot. It wasn’t the cold that got me (lies) but the wind. That chick was crazy and she just kept blowing away everything……
Primary Colors
I really enjoyed playing with colors here. It was not planned but I was pulling out the outfit and I thought, wow, I really like this! Just a few updates because a lot has been happening and I don’t want things piling up. I was recently featured on KonnectAfrica and did a style post on…
PurplePhunk
Of course, the first few skirts I’m selling had to include a variation of purpleeee! It’s back to tights and layers with the weather but I’m not complaining that much. What’s really giving me a headache is my scalp. It’s SUPER dry because of the cold and I don’t know what to do about it….
Baby Doll
I’m reveling in the playfulness of this outfit. I decided to bring some summer to Miss LAJA since I can’t have it in real life with this cold. Oh well… I love how both patterns mix well with each other. Another example of how wearing pattern on pattern (florals+ankara) isn’t as horrible as you thought…
Éventail

Confessions Of A BridesMaid
Couples that slay together stay together right? Yeah, yeah there’s a lot more to it but it flows so well. You guys know through my Instagram (@miss_laja) that I attended a wedding; my cousin’s wedding to be precise and I was on the bridal train so of course I had to share the experience with…
When In Dubai 2
And so the adventures continue… Day 4 Today was so moist. Literally and figuratively. Earlier in the day, I was at a travel agency and the manager, a lady came to talk to us. I promise you, never in my life has anyone ever impressed me SO much under the span of 15 minutes. Never….
CONTRAST

I made this late 2014 and I had so much fun with it (especially the editing part). I think I’ll be venturing into more themed portfolios/short films like these this 2015. What do you think? Just testing the watersss. …
