Face-Off! Wanna and Tonye in Wanna Sambo!


I've always been of the opinion that no one can rock a creation better than the designer (cos they are the ones who know how exactly the creation should fit) but in this case, i'm split. Singer Tonye rocked the Nigerian label (Wanna Sambo) a while back while vacationing in Miami pairing it with a bikini top and hoop earrings. Most recently; a few days ago, during the opening of her store, Wanna kept it simple in her creation pairing it with a black cropped top and classic bob. The flowy palazzo pants and long jacket is from Wanna's resort 2015 collection.

One of the most fab weekend looks was definitely served by actress Genevieve Nnaji. She wore a lace belted crepe black and white gown by David Meister to her friend - Oyinye Cater's wedding. Love the dress? Get it here for $292 (N58,400). Loved this look on her, not so much the hair though.

Bride Vs Brides Maid dresses!


Ok, not hating on the brides now but Onyinye Carter's wedding over the weekend totally reminded me of Kate Middleton's because of one thing - the brides maid's dress totally caught my eye more than the actual bride *ooooopppsss* No doubt, Oyinye and the Duchess of Cambridge were breathtaking in their individual gowns however there's just something about their best girlfriend's dresses that strikes me.

Joselyn Dumas' stunning outfit at the VGMAs!


The body on this woman, i can't deal! The ever stunning Ghanaian actress/presenter hosted the Vodafone Ghanaian Music Awards which held on the 11th of April. She wore 4 amazing outfits (one one the red carpet and 3 on stage) and yes, she rocked in every piece.

Our Favorite Nigerian Naturalistas!


I don't know if calling it a trend would be appropriate but i definitely know that in the last 2 years or so, there's been a massive natural hair movement. I got my own big chop last year because i finally grew the balls to; my hair had gotten so weak/thin from constant relaxing and ever since, i've been loving it. That being said, here are some fabulous Nigerian celebrities who would make you drool over nappy! Yes, you can look even more stunning in your natural kinky hair than you ever thought.

This was the recent performance in Kenya. I learnt it stage show was brilliant! Love the matching cropped top and pants set.

Long Torso? No Problem! How to dress up your long upper half! part 2


Cont: Just like every other fashion fix, its about doing the opposite of what you are trying to achieve. For instance, if you want to look slimmer, wear vertical stripes; if you want to look wider, wear horizontal stripes; you want to look curvy, wear an illusion dress and so on. Now back to long torsos. What we are looking to do here is to create a balance between your upper and lower half. Since obviously, your upper half is longer, you want to make it appear shorter thereby making your lower half longer. Get it? I'm sure you do. I know there's a lot of back and forth but just read through patiently.

Do we love this mix and match ankara on Kome?


Instagram sensation Kome spotted this mix and match ankara fabric in Iro and Buba. Obviously, they are two separate fabrics.........Yay or Nay? I kinda like it!
