She says, “My name is Funmi Ford. I live in Birmingham, AL but I am originally from New Lagos, Nigeria.” 
“My fashion style is eclectic. Somedays I feel like Blair Waldorf and the next I’m super edgy.”
“Fashion to me transcends race, nationality, languages and sizes.”
“When I moved from Africa I spoke little to no English, my clothes helped articulate what my brain and mouth couldn’t.”
“I knew no matter how broken my English or weird my customs, or food, clothes were a way to bridge that gap…especially among little girls.”
“I started my blog November 11, 2015 and it’s hard work but an extremely rewarding. Your site speaks to me every day, thank you!”
