Florals are my new favourite, mixing and matching with a plain white oversized linen.

Abuja is a very beautiful and peaceful city. It was our first time there and we loved so many things. I love the roads full of trees. Unique local restaurants, farms, and souvenirs. People are kind and always smiling.
