CHIEF MRS NIKE OSHINOWO COVERS AUGUST ISSUE OF MANIA MAGAZINE!


Wow! I love this cover that shows the ageless Chief Mrs Nike Oshinowo in a beautiful embellished piece by Iconic Invanity. I came across her designs at the Arise magazine fashion week and had the opportunity to look through the collection damn oh my,the attention to details is superb.  I have always loved Nike Oshinowo's style,personality and carriage over the years. And this cover is just beautiful.. I love it!

TREND ALERT:NEON GREEN

Uche Jombo Rodriguez
Arrrgghh...I absolutely loved the colour-blocking trend when it first surfaced but after fashionistas flogged the life out of it by getting it wrong may atimes,i said to myself... It's time to wait for a new colour trend. And yes! I was excited to see Mrs Uche Rodriguez at the 2012 Africa Movie Academy Awards in a stricking neon green trouser suit with neon sequenced camisole paired with blue pumps and clutch.... Just recently rap femcee Sasha stepped on the red carpet looking urban tom-boy chic with a neon green blazer...

P:S-Neon green isn't a good colour to wear during rainy season... Not a good sight when it's wet and even a more sour sight when photographed.

ALL BLACK YES! BUT MAKE SOMETHING POP!!!

Azuka Ogujiuba,Thisday Newspapers
For me,black and white is no more ones favorite as i see them as fashion's classic colours. So it has turned into a must have in my closet.And i think it's wrong [in my opinion] to call yourself fashionable if you don't have a good number of black and white buys in your wardrobe.
Either of both colours stand out strong anyday depending on how you put it together. Whether its being just casual or urban chic... it just has a way of speaking volume for you. But when you rock an all black ensemble and give room for a pop-up,it says STYLE! Just the way Thisday entertainment and style writter Azuka Ogujiuba did above with her purse and accessory and headpiece designer Ene did below with her silver purse... xx

TIWA SAVAGE PAIRS HIGH STREET WITH LUXURY AT THE 2012 COMPLETE FASHION MAGAZINE STYLE NIGHT

Tiwa Savage
Christian Louboutin Spiked heels
 I am a huge fan of Tiwa Savage's song,personality and style. She makes dressing up look so easy. When she steps out,you can tell,she doesn't care what anyone thinks and doesn't bother to impress anyone. All you see is her personaly style radiating. And i absolutely love when one's personal style is seen in whatever they are clad in. Unless maybe its a transformation shoot for a magazine cover or a campaign.
At the 2012 Complete Fashion Magazine Style Night,vocal power house Tiwa Savage paired a 40pounds Zara shirt dress with a silver spiky $1,495Christian Louboutin heels. I absolutely love the high end meets high street chicness of the entire look.

2012 MTN Lagos Fashion and Design Week and LFDW Awards is here! Budding fashion designers,Creative enterpreneurs and Models,Your chance is here... Go get it!



After a successful debut in 2011, MTN Lagos Fashion and Design Week (LFDW) will return to Lagos and take place at Eko Hotel and Suites, Lagos.

Speaking on the event Omoyemi Akerele, Creative Director of StyleHouse, the producers of LFDW said “Our goal for LFDW 2012 is primarily to make an impact in the Nigerian fashion industry beyond the runway. Fashion is a viable economic driver in Europe and North America and it is no longer just about aesthetics but a business model which
can significantly contribute to Nigerian economy if made part of the agenda.”

LFDW has been at the forefront of growing the Nigerian fashion industry by seeking out various international opportunities for Nigerian fashion designers. In February this year LFDW designers participated in an international
Fashion Showcase in conjunction with the British Fashion Council and British Council to exhibit a cross-section of Nigerian fashion designers in the “Tales by Moonlight” exhibition in London.

Five LFDW designers also attended in June, Pitti Immagine – a fashion trade fair in Florence, Italy which brings together fashion buyers, international press and key players in the international fashion industry. Akerele added “LFDW designers have just returned from a successful international showing at Pitti Immagine, the response we received to their work was phenomenal, and we have created an international appetite for Nigerian fashion as more international fashion buyers are now looking in the direction of Nigeria to stock their stores and all eager to see what comes out of Nigeria this fashion season.“
