Tomorrow It Will Happen | 30-01-10
By this time tomorrow, the doors of SEVEN will open to welcome you all to the very first AJANAKU event, Stepping Stones. The reason we decided to throw this party for Stepping Stones, was because on the same day I (Maurice Ajanaku) will be turning 30. I felt it was time to do something for the people who need it. The documentary “Saving Africa’s Witch Children“, touched me very deep on a personal level, that I knew it was for these kids I need to do something. With months of preparation, and the help of citizenM, Creative Recreation, and Jameson, we have been able to put together an event that will be crazy fun for all of you and in the meantime raise money and awareness for the children of Stepping Stones.

Scarlett Johansson for Mango | Spring/Summer 2010
Scarlett Johansson, since last Fall/Winter collection the new face of Mango, is the perfect person to follow in the footsteps of Penelope Cruz. For those who also loved the movie ‘Vicky Christina Barcelona‘ you will agree.
Louis Vuitton Mens Accessories | Fall/Winter 2010
With the Louis Vuitton’s F/W 2010 accessories for men line, I have a hate/love relationship. I love the bags, but hate the shoes. The handbags are beautiful in shape and material. The use of beautiful leather, along side the classic print, and rust like texture is just perfect. When it comes to their shoes, they just went a bit over the edge with the design. They should have focused on creating a line that is classic and endless. Instead they went the over-designed route, which is a shame. At least we still have the great line of bags to look forward to! The great images were taken by Jak & Jil.
MISTER 3 x AJANAKU | Stepping Stones Collaboration

MISTER 3, formally known as 1Oak, wanted to design a t-shirt in commemoration of this event. Together with us, they came up with a fantastic print incorporating elements that symbolize Africa, Mr. Three, and AJANAKU. The collaboration will be presented at the event, Saturday, 30th of January from 22:00.
