Style enthusiast and YouTube creator, Caroline Ene Ajeibi (JustEne), highlights her interests in expressing the entirety of her life and passion via fashion. Reminiscing on her life few years back as a child, she expresses that she was named “skinny“, “unfed” and “not well taken care of”, because of her tiny physical appearance but it’s the same body and dressing up in it that fuels her pride these days. Fashion for Ene transcends lifestyle. It is OXYGEN.
What is Your Passion and what Connection has it with your Feminity?
The entirety of what drives me is Fashion and Style. This passion has nothing to do with my Feminine nature but everything about my obsession. I’m OBSESSED with fashion. On a lighter note, if given an option to either breath or explore fashion trends, I’ll choose the latter. I live for it.
What would be the Most Amazing Adventure to Explore?
I like to think of going to weird places as adventurous. However, what will really spike my thrill is being featured on Paris/New York Fashion Week
Have You heard Worst things about you? How did that affect you?
Bodyshaming was a thing around me when I was a kid. People wondered if I was really fed well because I was so skinny. Truthfully, that was enough to cause me low self esteem but thank goodness, the same body is currently a thing of pride for me. Yeah, if you asked me what my selling point is, I’ll say my body and how it fits into my own style.
The Most Interesting Things about You would be?
Firstly, I’m deeply fashion-inclined but that hasn’t stopped me from;
- being a genuine human!
- having a radiating Smile
- enjoying my faith as a spirit-filled Christian
How Different Was Your Life A Year Ago?
Honestly a million positive ways different. From gradually loosing Interest in subsequently practicing medicine, which is my current course of study to embracing a life of “dress up and make them stare”
Given 40minutes with Absolutely no preparation to make a speech presentation, what issue would that be?
How I love this question! I would talk about how beautiful being dark skinned(melanin) is. There has been a lot of misconceptions about being dark skinned especially in Africa. Thankfully, the truth about “dark beauty” is gradually exposed and embraced.
What does Freedom mean to You?
Generally, Freedom should be about being unapologetically and genuinely You! I choose this notion of Freedom!
What Do you struggle with as a Woman?
Opportunities. The world should look into this.
Are there Beliefs about Women you disagree with?
Yes! I disagree that women are weaker species. Honestly, there’s no limitation to what people can achieve, including women.
How has your strengths helped you to conquer certain stereotypes about being Human?
My resilience has helped me in ignoring the standards set for certain people in certain fields of study. Like I said earlier, I’m a medical student who loves to model. Regardless of what’s on ground against my choice, I surely have moved past it. I’m proudly a part of both medicine and fashion. Nothing spoil.
What’s in your Future for WOMANITY?
I envisage a Future where the embrace of womanhood and it’s peculiarities as it relates to fashion becomes nothing to be ashamed of. A woman should be complete in poise and style. This can only take grace, of course.
Final Notes
I’m excited to be showcased on this platform. Cheers to more on the Lady Dynamique movement!
