Ade + Ayo: Culture, Community, and Connection

My boys: Yomi (right), and our son, Bukayo (left), in Ade + Ayo pants (Berbere Bògò print).

I cannot say enough good things about Ade + Ayo, a children’s clothing company started by a mother. That mother is Temidayo and she created this brand to pay homage to her Nigerian culture and to bridge a gap. She wasn’t seeing enough, if any, African textiles so Ade + Ayo was born.

I am not Nigerian, but my partner and son are. I have high respect for the very rich culture. Like Temidayo, my family is Yoruba. I was so inspired by the culture that I decided, with my partner’s approval too, to name our son Bukayo. His name means “God has added to my joy”.

Don’t take my word for it, check it out for yourself. In addition to clothing, she has expanded to include nursery items like crib sheets, toys, and educational items.
