You scrolling through blogs and magazines for inspiration
This is serious business!
When you see the prices of the things you like
Ahn ahn!
When you check your budget and compare it to the cost of things you like
One day, one trouble!
Trying to find affordable things in Lagos
So to find skirt and blouse is now a problem?
You getting ready to enter Balogun market to shop
It’s not just shopping, it’s a battle.

When you try to replicate autumn/winter looks in Lagos
Ah mo ti sé mistake.
Your tailor when you start explaining what you want
Carry your wahala and go please!
When you tell people you are passionate about fashion
Is it not ordinary clothes?
When your parents think your love of fashion means you want to become a tailor
You want to kill us abi?
When you see people trying to copy your swag
Trendsetter of life!
But then they claim they came up with the idea
THIEF THIEF!
When you find an outfit you’ve been looking for, for months
I feel happy! I feel grateful! I feel fulfilled!
When someone claims you have too many clothes
Get out of here please!
When people just want you to “dash” them clothes
It’s a no from me please and thank you!
