I had a rather crazy saturday(21st) I was all over town trying to catch up on all sorts and Lagos traffic was extra mental but I just had to make a stop at Taofick Okoya's fundraising fashion auction on saturday the 21st of May in support of The Children's Fiesta, a child empowerment program designed to celebrate the African child's positive attributes, through fun filled and enlightening activities which takes place this Friday ( Children's Day).As expected, there were lots of fashion bits and pieces to see and buy. I liked some of Kiki Kimanu's pieces but in the end I bought the most beautiful silk scarf in the world or so I tell myself...LOL!
The venue 'SU CHAO' Chinese Restaurant, VGC (owned by Taofick's sister) was quite impressive but I couldn't really stay to try out their food..I had another evening appointment to catch up with so I took a few photos ( as in very few...Sowwwy!!!) and I was off for another few hours in traffic...hmmmm Naija life sha!
Any hooo! here are the very few pics from the event...

The queens of Africa dolls are cute, but other than their African attire, I don't know if they're representative of the African look :-/
