Chimamanda Rocks A Custom Style Temple Top For 2018 Inbound Conference

“Just because something can be done doesn’t mean that’s the only way it can be done.”
– Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

Best-selling Nigerian author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie was one of the keynote speakers at the recently held 2018 Inbound Conference in Boston, an event featuring four days of inspiring talks from various speakers.

For the event, Adichie stayed true to her word to rep Nigerian designers. She wore a custom-made blouse by Style Temple and a skirt from Wuman.

Asides her style statement, the author of Half of a Yellow Sun gave a powerful speech that stirred social media a bit.

Here are some of the quotes we got from the event:

“Identity shapes the way the world interacts with us and as such, it shapes the way we interact with the world.”

“Just because something has been done a certain way doesn’t mean it’s the only way it can be done.”

“It’s equally important to read about people who are not like you.”

“I wonder where we would be if all parents read their children books about people that don’t always look like them.”

“I want to hear stories about people who don’t look like me and I want to hear people I disagree with.”
