Liberia fashion powerhouse, Monsio Couture, is having its first ever Fashion Cookout! The event is the first of its kind in Liberia, and aims to bring together the general public for a fun afternoon of food, drinks, and of course, fashion! Make sure you come prepared to spend, as the fashion house in ELWA will be selling some hot styles from its latest collection of affordable ready-to-wear African designs you can purchase for yourself, or as a Christmas present on Sunday, December 23.
This weekend is already incredibly packed, so we won’t be adding any miscellaneous items to the list. On Sunday evening, we need you all to take a recharge break from it all, and practice some self care by resting, and drinking some water, eat some fruits, and drinking more coconut water. There is plenty more holiday enjoyment waiting for you, so enjoy yourself, but please keep your overall wellness paramount.
Until next weekend ooh peepo!
