Hi guys, its your friendly neighbourhood Profashional here. Just stopped by to let you guys know.....
I GOT NOMINATED FOR AN AWARD!!!!!!
*cue clashing cymbals*
Now to maintain an aura of impenetrable cool I should be all blase and be like "yeah, nomination...whatever", but I'm actually pretty excited to have being nominated. Apparently the nominations have been out since the 17th of September but due to the fortress that is my spam settings, I didn't see the email till today when I was doing a bit of tidying in that area.
I was nominated for Most Promising Female Blogger/Online Editor of the year......I mean after blogging for 5 years but hey...I'm glad to have been recognized anyway. Thanks so much to Exquisite Magazine.
Besides being super excited one of the first things I thought was "what am I going to wear????", like really, what on earth will I wear, WHO will I wear. You guys know I keep it Nigerian over here so it has to be homegrown.
Picking a dress is going to be fun!
The awards show is scheduled to take place on Sunday 17th November 2013 at the Red Carpet Events Centre, Victoria Island, Lagos.
