AFW Day Three!!!

The final day closeout for AFWLA was just splendid for me, mostly because it was AMAZING and I took away so much but this was also the final show night I’d be going to during this season of fashion weeks… Wheeeew! It was bittersweet, but honestly I couldn’t have picked a better note to end on. AFW was just the right amount of professionally organized, yet super relaxed environment that I for one was certainly appreciative of after a long ass week and a half of some crazy ass atmosphere! Banana sandwhich! So it went a little suntin’ like this…

AFW Day Two!!

And now to the shows! Day two started off pretty much right into it, once everyone got in and settled we moved along right into the first collection of the night! I’ve placed the photos in the order of which they presented so it’s kind like you guys were THERE even if you weren’t… not really at all like that but we’re gonna go with it. Ohh but the playlist was killin it whoever that disk jockey was… he played all the jammy jams! Can I put music on here? Well, a little imagination can go a long way y’all!

AFW Day One!

Where oh where do I even begin… Africa Fashion Week Los Angeles day one summed up in one word: magnificent. Also,  Extraordinary. Sensational. Outstanding. There are endless amounts of relative adjectives I could use, it was absolutely divine. The culture, the energy, the stories, the beautiful rich variety of skin tones… it was a colorful dream! What a day, what a day!

FWLA Day Two

Fashion Week Los Angeles day two was the longest runway show I have ever been to in my damn life! Knights of Columbus! I once read a blog about how fashion shows are boring and un-enjoyable, which I wouldn’t necessarily agree with in most cases  but I do believe there is a timeframe… and Tuesday nights FWLA show definitely exceeded that frame, but it was still a good show! Long AF though!

FWLA Day One

This one right here goes out to all y’all fly fellas… I did this just for you!

Fashion Week Los Angeles took place at The BLOC in DTLA, a pretty coo venue to host a fashion show directly in the plaza, midst all the retail shops. The runway was a layout of some AstroTurf, a lil faux grass feel, totes spring… and it was at ground level which made my shitty iPhone pics slightly less shitty. YAY!
