FASHIONISTAS TO WATCH.

FROM THE RUNWAY TO THE SIDEWALK.
Fashion in Nigeria has never been so amazing.Every envelope opening in Nigeria is like a fashion show.This i find, oh so alluring.The outfits barely leave the runway before my fabulous fashionistas have them on their backs.There's a misconception that Nigerian designer's are expensive and really don't sell.
I'm about to correct that.

NOLLYWOOD DIVAS.
I Love everything Nigerian.As a result , i cease any chance i get to show off how fabulous Nigerians are.Nollywood our Budding movie industry is great* and all.But i think the Nollywood stars are anything but great when it comes to Fashion.A lot of our Nollywood celebrities somehow never get it right.( Celebrity stylists* aren't exactly common around these parts.)
So, when a few of them get it right you know i'm going to be musing about it.So, with no further ado i present the best of Nollywood.
