Pop’Africana Magazine’s lovely website unveiled the Maki Oh Autumn-Winter 2011/2012 lookbook a few days ago. Maki Oh is an absolutely brilliant designer who hails from Nigeria; her garments have long captured my attention. I am so amazed by her attention to detail, the way in which she combines different textures in her designs, and the manner in which her clothing celebrates the female form. She truly is a gifted individual. Here are some of the photos; the rest can be seen on POPAFRICANA.com (here).
I predict very big things in the future for Herds of the Fathers. For those of you who aren’t familiar with this company, Herds of the Fathers is a men’s accessory brand which was started by Tobi Babajide & Jason Akoi (check out my interview with Tobi by clicking here & Tobi’s “He’s Got That Good Good” feature by clicking here). Herds of the Fathers recently launched their new website, new tumblr, and announced that their new line of bags will be released within the next few months. I am extremely excited to see what these Tobi & Jason have come up with for this new line; judging by their premiere line, I know it will be absolutely amazing. Make sure you like their facebook group so you can keep up with all the latest developments!

This is definitely my idea of a jam for summer, I’ve been vibing to this track for the past week. For those of you who don’t know, The Stuyvesants are an instrumental hip-hop duo composed of Darien Victor Birks and Allan Cole. I love The Stuyvesants because the beats that these 2 produce are nothing short of utterly magnificent. I urge you to listen to & download their album, Brooklyn’s Finest, by clicking (here). This song in particular can be downloaded off of Darien Victor Birk’s blog (here).
One of my past “He’s Got That Good Good” featurees, Spencer Edwards, asked me to share his style book for Spring-Summer 2011 with you all. Unfortunately, the video link is not allowing me to embed the video directly in this post but you can still click (here) to watch & listen to Spencer as he breaks down what style means to him.
