In April 2019, I was a speaker at Abiola Babrinde’s Lagos edition of her part-book launch, part-panel discussion: Living Well in Lagos. Lagos is notorious for its hectic pace and given a proportion of the inner Circle live there, it was only fitting to host a meet-up to tackle the “s” word: stress. I taught women ways in which to use style to free themselves of stress, ways to use style as an outlet of expression, a way to show up for themselves amidst the stress.
