2018 so far…
I can’t believe it’s the 21st already and I’ve already achieved my goal for January. I recently hit 2000 followers on IG and I’m grateful. You guys are the real Gees. I promised a story time and best believe I will deliver. I recently collaborated with an upcoming photographer who had been reaching out to me for a collab since last year and this year I finally felt like I was ready for it. For this post let’s call the photographer “Bami”. So Bami and I were scheduled to meet up at about 1pm but Bami decided to be 3hours late; by the way I have a thing for time especially when it comes to business so it got me really upset but I couldn’t afford to have ugly pictures because your mood definitely affects the way your pictures come out. Eventually Bami shows up all apologetic and we take the pictures. Fast forward to 2days later Bami still hadn’t sent me my pictures and naturally I became agitated. Long story short Bami lost all my pictures and couldn’t even call to apologize or say it to me. I had to find out through a friend that Bamis laptop crashed causing Bami to loose all his work.
The essence of this story is not to insult Bami or highlight Bamis flaws but to tell you how much that particular incident affected me. I really couldn’t believe the amount of emotional stress that incident put me through but all in all I thank God for being there for me. My point however is that you really don’t know what people go through to come up with the things they come up with all we see is the finished work so if you’re in a position to help someone why not do it or better still if you can’t then just say it, nobody will beat you. Working with people is a different ball game and requires a lot of maturity, patience and commitment.
Well, it’s a new week and I’m ready to take it by the balls (excuse my French). Moving on to the matter on ground my outfit was inspired by boredom and to be honest I always wanted to catch on with the fanny pack trend I think I nailed it, don’t you?
If you’re not following me on the gram yet then what are you waiting for? Join the family.

Thanks so much. Tbh waiting for people gets on my very last nerve and when they donโt have the courtesy to inform you ahead of time then it makes the situation worse. Iโm waiting to see you style your own Fanny ๐๐
