HOW TO AVOID GIVING TERRIBLE GIFTS THIS VALENTINE. VICTOR AKINWANDE
G
ifts represent different things to various people. It depends on the perceived meaning ascribed to a gift by the recipients. Gifts symbolise affection, love and care. Giving gifts is a human affair and it has some intrinsic values attached to it. For example, when someone gives you a gift, you will like to hold such a person in high esteem and also, wish to give such person a gift too. The value of each gift can be different and that's where good and bad gifts are determined. How do you avoid giving terrible gifts this season? Check below, as we have gathered valuable tips for you. 1. KNOW THE PERSON This is one of the challenges many face while getting gifts for loved ones. Some people don't wear earrings and necklaces. It will be an error to get such a person a necklace or earrings as a gift. You have to know who you're buying a gift for, their taste, style and rave. You don't want to feel bad for doing something good.
2.KNOW THE PERSON'S LOVE LANGUAGE After knowing the personality of the person, it should not be hard to know what is their love language. You must know how the recipients express themselves, it is from this that you can deduce what will complement their affection. You'll know the gift to get them that will not look absurd or insensitive. 3. REMOVE YOURSELF FROM THE GIFT This is another mistake that most gift-givers make. They often put themselves in the shoes of the recipient. Some people end up buying for themselves than for the recipient. You are not giving yourself a gift so pay attention to what the person you are giving a gift wants. 4. ASK A THIRD PARTY This is about having another view. If you're buying a gift for your man, ask your male friend or siblings for insight. If it is otherwise, you might want to ask your female friends. However, the decision is yours to make at the end of the day because only you "know the person" that owns the gift. www.tribeandelan.com

FIRST HIJAB-WEARING MODEL- HALIMA ADEN OPENS UP ON WHY SHE QUIT THE FASHION INDUSTRY Temiloluwa Erinfolami
F
irst hijab-wearing
model, Halima Aden
announced in
November 2020 that she was quitting the fashion industry. According to her, it is not compatible with her religion.Halima who was the first model to wear a hijab on Vogue Magazine has now given her first interview since she decided to leave the fashion industry, stating details on why she can no longer work a s
a
f a s h i o n
model.Ever since the beginning of her career, Halima has been particular about her hijab to the extent that she made it part of her clause in her agreement that she won’t remove her hijab. But with time "I eventually drifted away and got into the confusing grey area of letting the team on-set style my hijab"
Halima said.In an interview with BBC News, Halima revealed that not only was she personally found her religious beliefs compromised on set where she had to let a team style her hijab, but she also noticed that other hijabwearing models who are following her footsteps were finding it more difficult in getting the industry to work with their beliefs."That rubbed me the wrong way and I was like, 'OMG, these girls are following in my footsteps and I have opened the door to the lion's mouth.' A lot of them are so young, it can be a creepy industry. Even the parties that we attended, I would always find myself in big sister mode having to grab one of the hijab-wearing models because she'd be surrounded by a group of men following and flocking her. I was like 'This doesn't look right, she's a child.' I would pull her out and ask her who she was with."She also stated that she found herself unable to spend enough time with her family. "In the first year of my career, I was able to make it home for Eid and Ramadan but in the last three years, I was travelling. I was sometimes on six to seven flights a week. It just didn't pause," she added.The 23-yearold former model revealed she was able to stay at home with her family as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic and cancelled work, which allowed her to spend more time with her mother, something which was taken from her by a full day model schedule."I'm grateful for this new chance that Covid gave me. We're all reflecting about our career paths and asking 'Does it bring me genuine happiness, does it bring me joy?"
