Hello family, I struggled with sharing this for a while but it’s high time I shared the business side of me with everyone. 2020 was a challenging year for me, I had 2 children in less than two years and it was difficult to cope with the pressure from work. COVID-19 made me realise the need for an extra income. I was disturbed, praying and researching about things I could do online to make an extra income because my teaching Job was not yielding as much as I wanted. One day, I stumbled on an advert by Adedayo Grace Ajayi, she was hosting a drop shipping training which I opted for. She explained the process and how to start the business; I was convinced I needed to join the bandwagon. In October 2020, I started a drop shipping business that operated primarily online without physical contact. When I started in October 2020, I sold various items ranging from kitchen utensils to fabrics, shoes, handbags etc. The beginning was a rollercoaster of emotions; it took a toll on me. After some months of trying different products, I decided to streamline my products to fabrics, shoes and bags. Hence, the business tagline is Fabrics + Shoes + Bags (the mathematician in me must show). After 3 years of resilience, consistency and growth, here I am today still managing the brand and forging ahead. Let me introduce my business to you…..
My business name is Legeens Store coined from my surname Adelekan. Legeens Store is basically an online store skilled in sourcing of Fabrics + Shoes + Bags.
One of the major challenges of purchasing fabrics, shoes and bags in an open market is accessing quality. A lot of people have testified to paying heavily for fake products. This is one of the problems my brand aim to solve. We always give you your money’s worth.
Another problem we solve is: we make aso ebi purchases easy for our clients. Imagine buying 100 Ankara aso ebi fabrics from the comfort of your home. We deliver to the park in your state or location, all you have to do is picking up. We can also deliver directly to the owners of the cloth, we are your confirm vendor.
Many professionals hardly have time to run market errands, the challenges and stress of work is enough for a day. We understand your plights; let’s do the shopping for you. We can source for your handbags, shoes (male and female), dresses, and suits. Don’t forget, we deliver the best.
I haven’t forgotten my dashing brides and handsome grooms, we have got you covered. We sell aso oke in different designs (6-7 weeks pre order), auto gele, cashmere, ready-made cap (just tell me your head size), lace, bridal shoe and purse. Sometimes we also sell wristwatch and other accessories on special request. Wedding shopping doesn’t have to be a hassle.
We offer delivery to all states within Nigeria. We also do international deliveries. Kindly note that delivery is not free and we deliver within 2-9days after payment is made.

Introduction
I want my "Story Of You" to be about how "I" as a Nigerian girl was born and grew up in the UK so it was a little harder for me to learn about myself and my culture since I was surrounded by people who weren't like me (a black girl). How I grew up was way different to how my parents grew up since they grew up in my home country and it took a while for me to be fully immersed and knowledgeable about my own culture since I grew up in the UK. It was only until I was put in a place where I was surrounded with 'black' people where I realised that I can be myself and that I liked who I was, what I did etc. when I was with them and I wasn't trying to force myself to be something I wasn't. I want to start with how my life was quite bland until I knew more about my culture then my life became more colourful. I will show this through the colours scheme through out my sketchbook.
Nigerian traditional clothing is called "Aso Ebi" which is a common Yoruba phrase meaning, "uniformed solidarity dressing. Okechukwu Nwafor (2019) mentions that Aso Ebi has took Lagos to the next level and it also acts something that can determine you're social status ; if your Aso Ebi looks more extravagant and more expensive than others it means that your social status is higher than others.
Nigerians are notorious for gossiping and take pride in how they look to others because they like to judge solely based oh how you look and dress to certain events. For example if you going to a wedding or a birthday party (any important event) you need to make sure you look your best or you will become the talk of the town. Everyone wants to look better than everyone else so its almost like a competition of who is best dressed which makes it interesting going to events like these because everyone always looks like they're the celebrant and their own individual style and beauty shines.

How to choose the right aso ebi gown style for your body type
There are a few things to consider when choosing the right aso ebi gown style for your body type. First, you'll want to think about what silhouette will flatter your figure the most. If you have a more hourglass-shaped body, you might want to go for a mermaid or trumpet-style dress that hugs your curves. If you're pear-shaped, an A-line gown might be the best pick to balance out your proportions. And if you have a petite frame, you might want to avoid anything too voluminous or over-the-top in order to avoid being swallowed up by the fabric. Once you've decided on the general shape of the dress, it's time to start thinking about the details. If you want to show off your curves, look for aso ebi gowns with lace or beadwork around the waist or hips. If you're looking to elongate your silhouette, go for a dress with vertical detailing like a ruffle or pleat down the center of the gown. And finally, don't forget about colour! Choose a hue that complements your skin tone and makes you feel confident and beautiful.
Tips for wearing aso ebi gowns
There are many different ways to wear an aso ebi gown, and the style you choose will depend on the look you're going for.
