FORMER BBNAIJA 2018 HOUSEMATE-NINA IVY DAZZLES IN NEW SHOOT BY TIANNAH STYLING







Miracle Ikechukwu's darling and co-housemate-Nina IVY of the recently concluded BBNAIJA 2018 reality series, which is probably the biggest so far in the history of the reality show in terms of interest and voting looked all shades of stunning in her recent shoot organized by the empress of the daily expanding business empire Toyin Lawani's TIANNAH styling.

So stunning is the Imo state born chick in the shoot, that if you didn't look well, or didn't know she was the one in the first place you might not even have recognized her, in fact you might have done a classic double-take before the reality hit home!

Outfits was provided by Elegante another brand by Toyin Lawani and shoot was conducted by the serial entrepreneur.

STYLE FOCUS- THE ULTIMATE GAME CHANGER JENNIFER OBAYUWANA....


Pinstripe, double-breasted, androgynous in luxury black & Gucci bag

Gold dress. Check out that brown Hermes Birkin in Croc

The whole ensemble-shoe game, bag⚡🔥

In Turfah, 100% hotness, see the bag & pointy toes

The best foot forward, see the bag and the outfit. 

Need we say anything? 

Attitude! Camouflage top Black pant. Check out the bag and pair of stilettos

What do you say when you style focus is- totally, awesomely and mind blowingly stylish and a game changer par excellence?

This is one person that is totally into (immersed into) the game of style. She writes the rules and she determines and understands the ethos and the how to of it. Never afraid to experiment, totally and impressionably fashion forward, many steps or better still kilometres ahead of her peers.

Her style is mixed, avant garde meet classic meet futuristic.....like the French would say "Jennifer est tres elegante, elle est toujours magnifique!

This one would stand side by side with the best of them all from across the world. Her accessories game is A-class- those bags hmmmmmmm! Her shoe collection hmmmmm! the eyewears hmmmmm! the wrist watches don't even say etc, her style game is 7-stars, the garbs themselves, most often it's like they are conjured up from "planet style", where only those that dictates the trend, who have uncommon tastes are the only citizens.

It's not just about wearing designer brands or things with logos, it's about wearing them with style and the "oomph factor" that you exude! The clothes don't submerge (wear) you and hide your personality, you wear the clothes and effortlessly too.

Jennifer Obayuwana, is an Executive Director of Polo Luxury Group, owners of Polo Limited, one of the very few authentic brands in Nigeria and West Africa, that the authentic "purveyors of style and luxury of the "bestest" kind swear by", for the best of time pieces like Rolex, Cartier, Hublot, Chopard and writing instruments like Montblanc etc. She's not just the ED of Polo Ltd alone, she is the brain behind the A-Class affiliate-Polo Avenue, who are the stockists of some of the best fashion pieces and accessories brands in the world. She's also a director at CATS Construction, which as the name suggests are into high grade constructions of all types, there is also still the Oil servicing brand too. All of these brands owned by her " style cognoscenti" of a dad, Mr. John Obayuwana. So like they say, the apple doesn't fall far away from the tree.

The dad's style game at over 60 is just on another level entirely, very few and we mean that with every sense of responsibility, in this country can match up to his swag! Dude (with respect,) defines C.O.N.F.I.D.E.N.C.E!

Jennifer's style and evolution, can be defined by a few things, one of that would be via inheritance, if you have a dad who understands it and is willing to let you into the secret, then you are on to a good foundation, a good start.

Also, if money is not necessarily an issue, that also goes a very long way too. But the major thing is about the personality too, Jenny like close friends calls the "underboss" (capo bastone) a tag or title she loves so much, seeing her dad as the "Boss of all bosses"(capo di tutti capi); went to some of the best schools, money can afford in Paris, France & Switzerland! Where apart from academic excellence, one other thing they place premium on, is a person's total package- books and outlook, hence some sort of finishing school training, poise, pose, the way you talk, how you dress etc.  Apart from holding at least 2 degrees from prestigious schools in Paris & Switzerland and having done many management courses at INSEAD, Columbia, LBS, she also speaks French and Swiss fluently and a passing Italian/Spanish!

So it's not just about style for Miss J Obayuwana, but a total package. Undoubtedly tres chic!

ELATED BIRTHDAY GIRL WITH HER CAKES
SSP & TOYIN LAWANI

A few days ago in London, someone whispered that it was somewhere in Barking, East London, United Kingdom a few loyal friends of serial entrepreneur, Toyin Lawani of the Tiannah Styling fame, who only just gave birth a few weeks earlier and is also the owner of the Elegante Fashion Label gathered to wish her well and celebrate their friend's birthday with her. 

It must have been a small but fun filled party evening, judging by the pictures we were able to lay our hands on. 2 of those we were able recognize at the party were young model/video vixen Jojo Lara(May D's video) and the incredible SSP(Sir Shina Peters) who Toyin says is her step-dad. If all we hear is true, Toyin is said to be having a ball in London with her new baby boy. Check out the pictures.

OUR HOT DELICIOUS CANDY IS TOYIN LAWANI CARRYING HER BABY BUMP WITH APLOMB!!!






This edition of EM, that's the new improved Exquisite Magazine is most probably their best ever cover, bar none. It stars none other than an incredible personality, in the person of serial entrepreneur Toyin Lawani. 

We have never seen Toyin look this good before. It's obvious she was at peace with herself with this pregnancy. Showing off the baby bump with unbelievable aplomb!!! She's most probably the first person in Nigeria, willing to expose the bump and do so with so much swag and style. That Exquisite Magazine could do this must be commended also. Since their anniversary edition 2 magazines or so ago, they seem to be on the quest to be the best Lifestyle Magazine around. So Kudos to Tewa Onasanya, the editor-in-chief and publisher and even Toyin Lawani, their cover personality who also doubles as their Fashion Editor. 

This edition of EM is a must for all lovers of all that's good and stylish. For the 1st time in a long while, Toyin reveals so much about herself and the joy of carrying her delicious baby bump.

EM: What trimester of the pregnancy do you think is or was the easiest for you?
Toyin: The second trimester
EM: Tell us about your first pregnancy and this present one?
Toyin: The first one was quite comfortable and less stressful as I was younger at the time and she is now 8 years old and the face of Elegante kids, my fashion line for the younger ones
EM: How has your diet changed during pregnancy?
Toyin: I have an amazing cook which has made it easy for me to stick to my vegetables. I eat more of broccoli carrots and grilled fish/chicken and I love smoothies …avocado prawn salad is my favourite for now and I had to cut down on my sugar.
EM: What was your first thought when you knew you were pregnant?
Toyin: The first thought was “I hope I remember how I did it the first time” but well its maternal instincts it always comes back.
EM: Tell us about your style before and after pregnancy.
Toyin: My style hasn’t changed much from before. I love standing out and being unique and don’t think pregnancy should make you change how you dress. You just wear more comfortable clothes, but you can still keep it edgy
Also featured in the issue are fashion spreads, showcasing different fashion trends currently in vogue around the world, featuring Nigeria’s Next Supermodel winner, Cynthia Abdullahi.

LIVE AT THE AFWLA 2012! THE WELCOME SOIREE!

Los Angeles, California, USA. We were recently in Los Angeles, to cover the maiden edition of the Africa Fashion Week Los Angeles. Landing at one of the entertainment capitals of the world was an eye opener. And to say the truth we thoroughly enjoyed the 7 days in LA.

One of those we saw in town was the one and only Toyin Lawani of the Tiannah Styling & Elegante Couture fame, who had come in from the UK, with her UK based publicist and a model from the Queen's land UK in tow to showcase at the 3 days event and an intern from New York, who had also flown in. 
We had both landed a day to the event proper, so we had to hit the ground running. The 15 hours flight for us, first to Houston for 12 hours and then from Houston to LA another 3 hours did not dampen our spirit. So we quickly made preparations to attend the welcome party for all, which the event organizers had tagged 'welcome mixer'. 

Getting unpacked at our hotel at the Staple Center Inn, we quickly had a change of clothes and we were off to the venue of the mixer, the Standard Hotel, which was quite a distance away. Though we got to the cocktail party a bit late, we still had great fun mixing & chatting, with other designers, a few guests, some models, a few of the organising team etc. 

We took a few pictures for our readers delight. Check 'em out!!!! All pictures were taken by maestro's media.
