ThisDay Style – the Sunday Style insert of ThisDay Newspaper jolted us with their Sunday 21st of August 2011 issue.
Big Brother Amplified winner Karen Igho was the cover girl and she definitely rocked it!
Karen’s shoot was by Ty Bello with accessories by Designers Lounge and Hair/Makeup by Makeup Den.
Check out our scans below.
she sure rockkssssssssssss.
I get that everyone loves Karen Igho… I get it. Haven’t seen any episode of the now-infamous episodes of this year’s “BB Africa” to judge for myself but there’s obviously something about her that’s lovable.
However, what I do not get is this ThisDay style cover. “Rocks” what exactly, BellaNaija? No offence, Karen but nothing here speaks of style… even the shoes are a fail and God knows it takes a lot for me to condemn footwear.
I blame the stylist, I’m sure you’re an okay chic Karen, but I seriously blame whoever styled this shoot.
thank you for that. awful stylist…then again. it is Karen.
anyhoo. so everybody loves Karen now, huh? i first came across the personality in the dailies and they cudn’t put her in a bad enough light. Lo! come her win and…SMH
Ms. Karen ma’m, carry go!
Which shoe in particular you dey talk about??? 1st photo or 2nd????? you get problem with your fingers na im make you type yeye thing wey dey your mind.. weda you like am or you no like am, Karen is $200,000 dollars richer than you. When she need stylist she go hire one. Jealousy…check another post on BN if this one doesn’t tickle your fancy…Rock on o jare…Karen (omo to badt gan)
Bad belus! Onyx why must u hate eh? Let me see ur own shoe madam stylist.
It is so SPARKLING clear that you didn’t watch the show.. DEF! Nobody thinks of Karen synonymously with innate style that has NOTHING to do with her essence!
Wow, did any of you three style this shoot (yes, you three stans)? Is that y y’all are sooo p**sed??? I apologise for not liking it but she doesnt look good. It’s a badly styled shoot, what part of my properly-clarified-comment do you not understand?? Reason, please, before responding. Sheesh!!
You are so right about this. Nigeria has come a long way in terms of fashion and photo shoots and this one is a total dissappointment for a girl that has such fabulous figure.
I m 2nd…*Plenty Teeth*
I love you Karen. I still tune to channel 198/199 thinking I would see you live on BBA. So sad 🙁
karen.karen…………karen…karen……………………….karen………………………..karen…………………….. dats all i can say
‘Rocks’?
too funny..
there’s nothing stylish about this pictures.. if she had a stylist she may well could’ve or actually shoud’ve done without him/her..
this doesnt reflect her personality whatsoever..
certainly could’ve done better!
the headshot isnt so bad..
BN the heading so doesnt do this post justice..
Whatever………….. am not a big fan of Karen Igho. No hate intended
I still don’t like her
Go Karen
thanks for covering her up *smh* i am tired of seeing toomuch of her skin!
Y re pple h8ing.d shoes r aiit especially d 2nd one .
Im a Karen fan but this shoot is truly awful!!… the stylist didnt do a good job..
O.K. I really like Karen but why can’t we read the interview? I would love to read what she said. I believe other people would like to read as well. I am not feeling these haphazard scanned images.
NO style …. lol n her lookz ain’t helpin her either… just being truthful, carry go, after all she deserved it … smh
na ur time
She looks nice, the short hair looks totally like a wig though, just saying. She looks like a girl I met in the second photo.
she looks nice??? i think you are very nice! Kudos to her tho, the beauty or lack thereof that she was put to good use 🙂
no no no this did not transform karen at all. thisday una fall my hand haba! una for use the magic wen una use for dame p for her now. the first pic looks like her back is missing maybe its the lighting anyways goodluck to una
its obvious some people here are pure haters. karen rocks whether she put on a cloak or a dress made out of curtains. she is a hot babe and remember why we fell in love with her. it was because of her beautiful personality.she has a heart of gold. I LOVE YOU KAREN
Vina made noise on twitter that we should buy the thisday style becaz she thought she was the cover page. thisday style gave her one page and called it “5mins” with vina. lol! karen was ofcourse the cover page. she is our winner
HAHAHAHA, lol
karen looks nice. we love her
This look works alright. Love the hair on her and the office girl(with the dress) and the rock chic(with the shoes) work for me so I really like
If u want to read the interview, grab a copy of sunays thisday. U cant get everytin for free on bellanaija!
Actu’e’lly, the shoes are dodgy. Appears, they are bigger than her too?
I am the biggest karen fan on the face of the earth, I will defend her forever but…I gotta say, the styling doesn’t do her justice at all. 1st dress is too tight, she has small features(waist) but with those gorgeous boobies u gotta go a size bigger. She also has one kind big yansh(pardon my spanish). So the dress is squishing her boobs and the seams of the dress @ the hips look like they gonna burst.
D shoes r gorg but do not go with the dress at all, and what’s with the purse that still has the tag on it???
D ribbed tights also look tacky and good Lord, enough with the louby’s already. We don’t knw real from fake anymore.
I also think they could’ve done a much better job with the location, standing next to cheap wardrobes is totally unacceptable.
The last look is gorg but in all, we know our karen to be spunky, sassy, zany, wild…and this demure concept is a travesty. Even the pics at her welcome party would’ve been better.
I am shocked TY bello took these photos. She was at the top of photography one time, wonder what happened. I guess in naija every one calls themself a stylist, when they have no clue how to infuse the styling with the “client’s” personality.
Karen, we need u back on TV, I need you in my life ooooooo
Coolcat, regarding the purse that still has a tag on it, I bought sunday’s thisday style (like I always do on sundays 😉 ), so i just want to clarify that its not the price tag of the purse (as you call it) that is on it. That tag has $200,000 written on it, and thats not even a purse, its a briefcase which I think symbolises how much she has won, or better still how much money is in it.
I love Karen Igho, that is my baby girl. but I mean, who did this to her? is this how we treat a winner? COME ON! I bet folks are laughing. Karen, I know you didn’t think this was cute, couldnt you have addded just a little diva and said your mind? because watching you on the show, I know you’ve got style, and would never wear anything like this.
the hair (especially in the 2nd pic) is so bad, the entire 2nd pic is so wrong. the lighting is poor, etc. the outfits are wack.
i dont want to sound like a hater, but I am not hating on Karen, its whoever styled the shoot and the photographer. SMH
this shoot is awful. karen is not the most good looking person alive but they shld have done something better. no bad belle o!!!!!
Karen is the most good looking person alive?Is she now?What planet do you live on?
well……. the thisday team did not do a good job on the cover… i love karen and tot she deserved beta.
LOLLLZZZ……/.Do u ppl ever disappoint me???? No No No No!!!! Can’t help laughing. U girls are soo funny! Hating, quarrelling, seconding, supporting……… Una no dey tire abeg. Even on web pages, girls still fight…lol. Welldone!
am a die hard karen fan and that is why am so upset at the thisday style team,haba..they were in a hurry to be the first to have karen on their cover.and it turned out badly, below the standard,from the hair,outfits…i expected more..
STill cant stand her thsnk god shes off my screen
she rockkkkksssss and for you haterz backflip enter canal
Not quite, didn’t do justice to her!
d quality of this, is way too poor!…somthing is wrong somwher, definitely nt wit Karen, either wit d stylist/costumier or d photography…i dnt gbadu, its doesnt “rock”, joor o!!!
not feeling the hair. She does better by herself…in my view
Karen………This girl rocks, i tell you! loving her all the way till date.
lukn owk,lv ha!*
@coolcat you said it all.Well am not a big fan of karen anywayz ,but the picture,hair,clothes and shoes all look tacky.
