FASHION FRIDAY: AFWLA 2013

THE CROWD RIGHT BEFORE SHOWTIME

As you know, I am a lover of fashion. Not only is it truly my passion, but it is my obsession. That's why I am so grateful to be able to attend the fashion events I go to, and sometimes have the privilege to participate in. Of all of the amazing shows I go to, Africa Fashion Week L.A.,is still the one closest to my heart. It was the first event that TDB ever attended, and was where we met so many amazing people that we've profiled on the blog, had a pleasure of working with on different projects, and have become friends with. So many amazing things have happened to TDB, and it all started with AFWLA.

TDB'S ASHA AND DIVA

I loved everything about this year's fashion week. From the location, this year's show was held at 525 DTLA, an art gallery where Chris Brown's work is featured....yes, that Chris Brown; to the designers, 2 African Girls and Tina Summers slayed, and I want/need everything from those collections; to the music, the deejay played a good mix of African and American music that kept the crowd hyped.  

FRONT ROW FABULOUSNESS

I'd been waiting for this show all year long, and I'm so glad that it didn't disappoint. Normally, I'd post pics of the actual collections, but I was so impressed with the looks of the attendees, that I wanted to give them some love. Of course I died for the collections  as well, and you can check out all the designers  on our YouTube page.

FASHION FRIDAY: A LOOK BACK

So, tomorrow  marks our one-year anniversary! I swear, time really flies; it's crazy to think of all the amazing things we've done over the past year.
