Launch your baffs

Remember those days when we used to "launch baffs"? Now when i look back, am like- is there any need for that..trying to show off?

Third term hols are over and it is almost time to get back to school in September and there is pressure to look like you went to jand or yankee even if you spent the whole holiday at one stupid lesson or at your village. So people like this, they will have started planning what they will launch on their first day at school...remember when momsie will say you should go to Bata shoes to get your school shoes and you will vex because you don't want to buy all those cotina shoes that look like cardboard.

Remember mocassin platforms, ankle socks, anklet(leg chain), designer pencil case, monostrap backpacks, Nike school bags, fancy water bottles, aluminum water bottles, gel pens and the lots...( u can add more if you like)

Remember the days of knap sack, fanny packs, dungarees, body hug, hipsters, Lycra skirt, lemon and orange outfits, black boots, plastic glasses, "aunty gimme cake dress", hot pants, half top, platform trainers from "collectibles", skirt suits

Remember these hairstyles: front and back, patewo, shuko, didi, front brush, side brush, calabar, two-step, thread, koroba, kolese(all back)

Remember when it was time to go to travel abroad, the classic outfit was Jeans trouser and jeans jacket with white trainers.

I Can't Laugh O!!!
If you Remember, feel free to add more
Things have really changed

XOXO
