OOTN: February 22, 2014
I tried to take it back to my roots with this one. During our African Student Association Pageant, I chose wear a traditional iro and buba "blouse and wrapper" attire. Although both the sleeves of the buba and the length of the iro are usually full length, I opted for the oleku style in which the sleeves of the buba only reaches he elbows and the length of the iro is to the knees. I accessorized with a clutch, a lot of jewelry, a gele, and heels!
Buba Material: Dry Lace (from Lagos Island Market) - in peach
Iro & Gele Material: Aso Oke (from Lagos Island Market)- in mint
Clutch: gift
Neckace & rings : Charlotte Russe
Shoes: Charlotte Russe
