In Port Harcourt for the Future Awards

Arrived Port Harcourt today for the Future Awards where I was nominated for 'Young Person of the Year' and just getting the first oppportunity to sit in front of my computer. The show has already started so I gotta run out of my hotel room, just wanted to touch base here and let y'all know why I've been MIA all day. 

A lot of young innovative, enterprising Nigerians are here, will bring you photos from the event in a bit!

And yes, yes, I know what you are all thinking - 'What a lovely dress!' Thank you. You're welcome :-)

Yaaaaay!!!!!! Linda is finally in my territory, hope I get to see her. But Lin Lin, this gown doesn't flatter u at all, u r too thin for this. Go more on knee length and if it must be long, a bit more fitting rather than loose cos u r quite slim

Yeyyy, nice outfit b

Beautiful dress. I now kind of understand when people say you can't dress and you don't have the wow factor. Why will you spoil such a beautiful dress with such drab accessories? Ditch the chain and then wear nice bold earrings to complete the look. Or wear a bold neck piece with small earrings since your hair covers your ears. You lack charisma when you look drab like this.

Linda, I want to believe you went straight form church to the airport, otherwise there is no excuse for this dress you are wearing...even then, what are you doing wearing such a dowdy dress to church?

Your style of dressing says 'conservative,undaring and "I don't want to be noticed"', but your thoughts which you reflect through your blog says 'bold, daring and playful'. Your blog is your release from the prison that you think your body.
Goodluck tonight and even if you don't win, just know that you are, through your work/passion, an inspiration.
P.s. - sorry for the psychoanalysis, but when I saw your look for the night, I got an 'insight' as to what your personality is and thought I'd share it with you. And no...you don't have to post this comment.

Anonymous said...

Love u Linda but your style is sooo wack. The boring drss woulda fared better with a more interesting belt, and that necklace? No no no dear. This your hair is another matter. I sincerely hope this is not the same lolavita hair you've been wearing for how long now? No wonder it's so scanty. Pls buy a few more tracks and style it differently, maybe some waves, layers, colour, something...anything. Babe try abeg

miss lawyer said...

yes, lovely gown linda but mehn that color is not tapping at all, try exploring with other colors, eg peach, orange etc. also when you wear a long gown like what you have on, you should pack your hair up always, whether in a bun or just dangling. you need friends me like me dear

Anonymous said...

Linda you know I love you... You are a good role model, you came from Nothing to owning your own business. Many Nigerian young ladies should follow your lead instead of chasing married rich bobo to sponcer them. With that said, yout fashion sense is awful, that dress is a hell no for your sexy slim body. The accessories you are wearing does not go with the dress, your makeup is average & this your hairstyle needs to go.

oyinda said...

Shut up jor...ode oshi am sure dat guy dumped u dats y u re so sad...d guy is haawt nd linda abeg hook up wiv him asap...d dress no try at all o bt hope u had fun sha??Nonya u re just a freakn sadist bloody idiot

beebee said...

Linda........i luv you ooo and my advice for you is that since you aren't much of a fashion freak,take a picture of yourself when dressed up and send to your sister or best friend for their opinion/approval if there is no one around you.As per dis yur hairdo....e b lyk say u ask for 'd usual' wen u go to the salon.I do know braids,ghana weaving or short hair(weavon) wil look gud on you (•͡.̮ ~͡

And where is ur touch of green?
I no understand ur dress , hair and accessory.
Thank you!

Anonymous said...

Trying to channel Kate Middleton's lilac gown at the Hollywood premier aii? Gown is nice but accessories is zero. You should not have put any necklace and instead accessories with earrings. An that purse my goodness, it looks like an old wife's purse from an old bag. You should have used something bold and glittery though small and classy

Linda you know say I love you dieeeeeeeeeeeeee. Please change this hairstyle, I take God beg you. You will look so stunning wearing an edgy haircut

Abeg linda you look joor, if you dnt think so go hug transformer all this you need meat rubbish i tire typical naija mentality linda thumbs you look younger than your age everyday young only few people have common sense to know that this your nature and you can't be thick just like they will say everybody can't be lekpa she doesn't look hungry anything i admire that your flat belly, if you were abroad you go value that your sweet slim body die no fat ooo linda no fat you are beautifully and wonderfully made those wey dey point out mistake am sure most of them no fine reach you and they sit behind their laptop to type rubbish.

Linda you are a very decent dresser and i admire you for that. don't mind all these local girls that want you to wear short dress , high heels, plenty make up and large accessories.
Abeg leave Linda ALONE, you guys complaining have issues and not linda.

Ahmed said...

Linda, na wa for you. Your dress is too short. Couldn't you find a much longer one? Wear a longer dress. While you're at it, cover up your face, arm, etc. So so long dress. Why? Why? Why do you like dressing like an old woman? I give up. Btw, what did you do with all the money I transferred into your bank accounts for clothes shopping? I hope you didn't spend all of it on Brazillian hair?

lol

Linda hmmm that guy look like say something stand for I'm body ooh, abeg make u no hold am like that again...

Yemisi said...

You see that dress wey you wear go Rick Ross concert would have done it well here, the drees is pretty but something about it, made you a drab- no offense, if you can't hire a personal stylist. Before you go out ask Google. You will always get an idea! You still rock. No mind them + me. I have beef for you. Hire an assistant, automate your tweets, it will soon lose excitement with you outdated version of the blogger. Soend this money na. Everytime you are awaY- no more work. Hire jus one person.

Very lovely dress Linda but for the colour. We are so tired of seeing u in dark colours babe. That being said, you look lovely. Surprise us soon babe by changing your hair style and mate wearing a bright coloured dress. I'm sure a short weave will suit your face and can almost picture you in one. Have fun babe and all d best.

Linda yes your dress is nice. I just have a question, do you have bendy rollers? That would transform your monotonous look instantly. Abeg, buy a pack and make use of it. Thanks.

Wait o linda. Is this the dress you're wearing to the award ceremony??? Are you kidding me?! Wth. Pls why didn't you visit Dorothy Perkins at least while you were in jand?

The Future Awards is a novelty that should continue. I hope it's own future is not tied to the existence of the Rivers State Government under Gov Amaechi. What happens after 2015?
