Nigerian Independence Day

The neatest thing about creating this #NigerianIndependenceDay series with @questionmarkk is that it’s so authentically me.

I did my marks, hair, unfortunately-tied gele & makeup. The threads are custom tailored from Nigeria, not a store. I still have my sober bands on. This is who I am.
