Hi Everyone,
How are y’all doing?
So sorry I have been MIA.
I was in South Africa for a lil bit and had little no internet access…on the bright side, my trip was really fab!
Last week, work has been crazzzy! I actually started writing this blog post last week but havent had time to continue until now. I was in my office soooo late all through last week. Crazy!
So what have you been up to? I can’t wait for ‘summer’. The months of June, July and August are my favs. Something exciting always jumps off.
So how was your weekend? Mine was soooooo good!
MADE Magazine held an event last week. Here are some photos.
Ini Edo and her date – Sarah Ofili
Ikechukwu & Naeto C – Sasha P – Obi Asika
Felix Okoye – Sokari Biggs – Model, Titi Adelagun
Lamide Akintobi – Tosyn Bucknor – Noble Igwe
Sike Idowu – Onohi Iremiren – Bisola Kamson
Archie Ezenagu – Matthew Mensah – Ugo Okoye
Nwando Ozobia – GT Guitarman – Olisa Adibua
Kehinde Okunoren – Yemi Adebonojo – Gbenga Ashiru & Mark Slade
DJ Sose – Ruby Dabbour – Bimbo Ashiru
Best Dressed Ladies
Lola Maja – Joke Ladoja
Both ladies hit opposite sides of the style spectrum, Lola went for the classic but sexy little black dress by Yemi O while Joke went for the quirky choice with bold choices in cut, colour and accessories. Uber fab!

Hey Bella, can I please get ur e-mail addy, I need to ask you a question. Take care!
The black dress is beautiful but that your other choice…mba.
@Olu: slippers ke? Those heels are hot men!
judging from the pictures, i dont think the ladoja dress desrves best dressed but i guess thats ur choice…the other black dress was nice tho
NAETO C looks hot…
as always
We think Tosyn and Noble look ab-fab,
but then again, we are biased!
LOL
Just so you know,
LOLA of the UNRULIES is a a JBL dress, and Chris (editor of MADE MAG), is in a CLOTHSENSE original
LOLA (best dressed female) Maja’s BLACK dress was designed by YEMI OSUNKOYA and is from the YEMI O couture line
And lets do a shameless plug of Tosyns blog!
To read Tosyns take on fashion on the MADE night, pls go to her blog!
The black dress worn by one chosen the best dressed is quite lovely.
What’s with Nigerian musicians/actors/celebreties having kids outside wedlock?
loving the outfits you singled out on the best dressed ladies. Nice post as usual

I realy cant complain on the outfits in this post to be honest………..most of them (90%) were on point and good to look at! Ini Edo looks realy fly! So did the other gurls ……… i realy dont have any complaints about their weaves this time(normally, i do, lol). Naija gurls rawk!!!!!! hehe.
Make sure you fulfil your promise bella….cos i’l be back 2morrow, lol!
im sorry to say but basketmouth looks deranged in that picture.
are his eyes usually so wide?
lol@ hellish…. i feel u tho!
oh and bella……. follwin on from the repeatin baffs post, pls u need to do one abt wearing an outfit and seeing someone wearing the same thing! that personally is my worst nightmare.
oh my!!JOKE was best dressed- aint nothing new there… Shes always had that ‘thing’…
bella that ur secong pick no make am o..as waffarian said mba!!!lol…
i have the same post up on my page sef!!!
why did u disapear and leave us high and dry!!!
how are you
Wow Bella, I’m so flattered you picked my Yemi O Black dress as one of your ‘best dressed’ choices.I have the beautiful Lola Maja to thank for that.
Joke is definitely the best dressed.
The other woman is drop dead gorgy with a MAD shape but that dress is TOO TIGHT (peep the bust). Don’t see why she would be there…
Again, the guys dressed WAY better than the girls!
Gbenga Ashiru was the best dressed male! Is he single?
Hi Bella,
I second Yemi’s comments, i’m totally flatterd that I made your “Best Dressed” list.
But to be honest, I wouldn’t have been able to make it through the night interviewing the guests on the red carpet and hostessing with Olisa without the confidence that Yemi’s dress gave me.
FashionCritic commented on the bust area of the dress.. just to respond, unfortunately the person who helped me dress didn’t lace up the corset correctly and every time I laughed i had over flow.. even more unfortunate.. I laugh an awful lot..

Love your blog, love your style.

P Square is on Point!!!!!!!!!
aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!!!
Congrats to basketmouth but hope hes does the right thing and marries his baby mama!
RUKIIIIIIIIIII……wooo haay, definetely love the pink dress, a true contender for best dressed, as always!!!
