Many friends, family members, known fashionistas all turned out very recently at Ikeja, as Ruby & Pink Lifestyle Store had a grand-opening at the Ikeja Mall, Alausa, Lagos. The top fashion outlet is owned by the very stylish Chika Acholonu, who is the wife of the Igwe of Orlu- a First Class King from the Eastern Part of Nigeria, Orlu, Imo State to be precise.
This new store in Ikeja, which is at the massive Ikeja Mall, next to the Lagos sit of power in Alausa, makes it the 2nd branch in the growing chain. Ruby & Pink stocks the best of fashion apparels & accessories from many parts of the world. The store owner counts amongst her regular customers some of the very well known Lagos fashionistas.
At the grand-opening a few weeks ago, we saw the likes Ndidi Anyaechie- md of Designer Club/ Bhive Lounge, Adaobi Nwakuche- Director at Staco Insurance, Eunice Efole, Ndidi Obioha,-Md of Enthyst, Ifeoma Williams, a lawyer and top manager at MTV, Nikky Ogbuefi, Ezinne Chinkata, top stylist & Fashion Editor at Wow Magazine, who also writes for Vogue Italia, Vivian Agbonkhese and a few others. The store was declared opened by the wife of the founder and former Chairman/CEO of Diamond Bank- Mrs Pascal Dozie, whose very quiet husband was around too, he is presently the Chairman of Mtn Nigeria. The Igwe of Orlu, HRM Igwe Dr. Patrick Chinedu Acholonu came with a few friends to support his beautiful wife at the opening.
There was a mini-fashion show at the middle of the mall, that was ably coordinated by Ifeoma Williams & Andy, a top model instructor, and the models posed to the delight of all, wearing the different outfits (Casuals, Dinner-wears, shoes etc) that Ruby & Pink store stocks. At the end of the fashion show, it was like a buying frenzy, as everyone including the male guests were all seen buying one or two things, inside the very well stocked store.
We got a few pictures of the opening for your viewing pleasure. ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!
LOADS MORE PICTURES AFTER THE BREAK.

The turnout was good. She's doing very well with her business. Well done to her.
ReplyDeleteAdobo nwakuche...age has begun to catch up with you, maybe you shoulda had a baby with Ortega before dumping him...those jeans are wayyyy too tight on you, when will you start buying your size?...cute purse but LV is cheap enough to get the big size. If it was Hermes or channel I will understand the miniature size.
ReplyDeleteFront and back view, very nice both ways(no lesbo).
Darling dorothy, shoe no go kill you o...you look smashing in the loubs baby.
Otherwise looks like a fantastic event, definitely not for struggling people like us!
haha @ Anon 1:44am for calling Adaobi "Adobo". Do u know what Adobo means in Yoruba? I guess you called her that based on her reputation
ReplyDeleteWhat does it mean?
DeleteAdaobi is really pretty:)
