Linda Has A Blog

I created this FM&B blog for Linda Ikeji's magazine. But I am afraid that she cannot manage it and I have to update it whenever I can do so.

Linda has her own kind of social titbits blog and seems to be more comfortable with such issues than have a niche blog on fashion, modeling and beauty.
