Akwiyah skirt: Designed by me  | Shoes: Zara | Top: Asos

The Akwiyah skirt in a rope print.

This dress is one of the first five pieces of clothing I designed and uploaded on Instagram. That was almost 6 months ago. It was never my intention to start a fashion blog where I designed my own clothes. Everyone in Ghana takes their clothes to a seamstress or tailor to sew something for them. Starting my own blog and sharing my ideas on here gave me the excuse to explore and  create. It is as simple as that ... I just enjoy creating. Whether it is custom made or purchased from a retailer...I just love putting different ideas together.

In a short six months it has opened up a well of happiness and joy ... I'm allowed to wander fearlessly when it comes to my style.

And I appreciate every single view I get on here - It's amazing to see people from Israel, Canada, Italy, Kenya, Brazil, UK, Netherlands, etc...

To All of you -Hi - Thank you for the support! Every time I see views from a new country it honestly makes my heart smile. Please stick around because there are bigger and better things on the horizon.

So here's a cheers to taking a 'Plunge' into the deep ;) (Yes I'm Cheesy)
