Toddler, A Cappella

January 17, 2012 //  by Uju//  8 Comments

Swagger.

I can’t even spell it, but mama says I’ve got it in spades.

Anyone can see I love to pose. I was dancing here, at the London A Cappella Festival last weekend and Mummy snapped me mid-flow.

It was a fun afternoon at King’s Place, there were people breaking out in song all over. This is one of our top spots to kick about – it’s not soft play exactly, but there’s usually something happening that kids can enjoy too.

And the floors are good for running and sliding.

Like my look? Dad said the jacket pattern’s a bit ‘Van Halen’ but Mum thinks it’s rocking.

Jacket by Nike (from my big friend Marcus).

Cord trousers by Gap.

Trainers by Puma.

Oh yeah, and swagger by Jed.

Editor’s note: Background painting is of filmmaker Isaac Julien, part of a really cool portrait series of famous graduates of Central Saint Martins arts school. If you’re in the area, do check it out!

    WHAT CAN I SAY, BUT YOU ARE SIZZLIN’! Seriously Uju, your pictures and descriptions always crack me up…genius. And because I personally know the little man and his chillaxed demeanor it makes it all the better. Brilliant! We need to get you over here, ASAP

    Lol, I know it must tickle you since you’ve hung with the little rocker. Thank God he doesn’t actually know he’s the star of the Trendy Toddler feature so far, he already feels cool enough. I need Ezra to get a look in next week – can we make it Trendy Tot? x
