Musician Iyadede adds a new title to her list of accomplishments. She is now an accessory designer! Her accessory design brand is called Bowbi Ladawa and according to Iyadede, the brand is “born out of artist Iyadede’s frustration to find items, clothes and jewelry that fit her personality on the market: A young African woman with no cultural boundaries, good taste and a sense of style. A love for bright colors + a love for vintage + a love for unique looks that make you stand out in the crowd but not for the wrong reasons + a will to show the cool side of Africa. So she started designing her own pieces of earrings, and other items that truly embodies the idea of “woman of the world.””
