After stalking Solange Knowles’ blog for a while, I came across a picture of this man.

I have always wondered who he was after seeing him in some of Beyoncé’s behind the scenes videos….

So, I googled him and nothing came up on wikipedia…but maan, from what I came across, the only thing I can say is this man is INTRINSICALLY stylish.

I could easily see myself wearing his clothes anyday…congratulations to me for finding myself a new addition to my muse collection.

This is no small joke especially when you live in a tiny town with virtually NO black people so the chance of finding an African corner shop is NIL.
My only shito “fix” is the few bottles my mum prepares for me when returning to the UK….and boy oh boy…how sad do I get when I ran out of shito.
Right, going on my “Things to Catch up with While in West Africa” list: learn how to make shito.

Oroma…you are so fierce.

There has always been “friendly” rivalry between Ghanians and Nigerians. This video helps lay out some of the “issues” between the 2 countries…and also helps to clarify some of the differences between them…as a lot of foreigners confuse the two countries…the number of times I have heard someone call a Ghanaian a Nigerian after hearing them speak…even the accents are different people!

Woo child! Woman on THE LEFT, I want your SHORTS and your SWAG.

OK. Gonna each myself how to sew….first though, need to get my hands on a John Lewis mini sewing machine. Simple enough for a beginner- and too cute for words- they come in all colors and look just like a piece of candy!
