Genevieve Nnaji is indeed Ageless. Decently dressed people, no scary make-ups, and ridiculous wigs all over the place. As for Oluchi and Toke, not feeling their choice of dressing, but just an opinion.
And Noble Igwe is an eyesore! quit TRYING to smile in pictures pls. kodo head
aaaw genevieve nnaji looks ravishingly beautiful, Chayla looks agless
Gosh, Wonu Okoye, her baby bump and her hubbie are just too cute.
She gave birth already; no bump. And she’s done a great job with the weight, the tommy area usually takes longer.
I love the picture of her and her hubby. Motherhood sure suits her.
Madam itk…its a bump. She is obviously preggers with another child. Plus post partum belly does not look like that
And you know this because you are her OB/GYN abi?
Erm, but Jen is referring to the photos in this post and here, we see a baby bump. No?
Speaking of baby bumps is Toks pregadocious. Something about the waist….and the boobs.
If yes … Congratulations!
Lilo,
You’re the ITK here cause Wonu recently just had a baby.
Nigerians forever arguing (rudely) for what they aren’t sure of.
Why the hell are y’all arguing over her baby bump? Jeez leave this woman alone na!! See monitoring spirits!! Whether she has a bump or not is truly no ones business and please free this woman to love herself, abeg!!!
Nahum,
You’re the only one arguing here and carry the matter on your head like gala. Relax!
Beautiful ladies.Genny is a classy babe.
sooo fresh !!!
but ifeanyi Micheal for rub cream for leg
hahahahahahaha. that was awesome
Ooooooooo so that is Wonu and hubby…….hmmmmm nice looking couple meanwhile this Oluchi is tall sha making even the average height females look extra short in their heels lol
Genevieve looks ravishing. I love her distressed jean skirt.
Toke, I see you.
Oluchi is so beautiful it’s timeless.
Nice but u won’t see any on me. My opinion o
Toke is always heavily caked, she should really learn to go easy on make up sometimes, and please i’m not throwing no shade here, I love and admire Toke but this “overly made up face” is not always nice, it screams plenty shades of insecurity, and i think thats y she looks a bit off here,cos you look @her and think she’s always trying too hard, just my opinion sha. Love you always King Gen, you look amazeballs.
The hips don’t lie (the lady in the polka dotted top.)
I think Genny missed it with those shoes and she needs to pay better attention to her knees and legs. Pretty woman.
Oluchi looks like the regular girl next door.
I like Toke’s get up.
Fade looks rough here. Not a flattering dress.
It looks like Zina Anumudu has taken over from her mother at these events. I miss seeing “Aunty” Nkiru at events with her dressed up self. Come back please.
Lol re Nkiru. An event by LPM / L’Espace isn’t exactly in the same league as one by, for instance, Temple Muse as evidenced by the [relatively] low key crowd. I wouldn’t expect her here. But yeah, Nkiru season (i.e. Lagos Fashion & Design Week) is just around the corner….
Obviously a Cool Event., with Beautiful people.
Toke cheeks tho… two egg lumps or what? lol
…is it just me or does Rekena Sharon Ojong look like davido’s missing twin (yellow version hehe)..
pictures nice to look at tho..not much cringing…
I have said that too before lol.
OMG you’re totally right, wonder how come it never hit me
Fabulous event! I would surely look good in one of those [just sayin’]
Huge Genevieve fan but those shoes ain’t werking for me. To me sha Genny has started slacking off when it comes to her styling.
Well dressed people..Oluchi and Genny never get old..I wish I could see Oluchi and Agbani stand next to each other,wonder who might be taller? BN well done,best fashion blog so far,but what happened to ‘My style feature’.
geneveieve has been toning for a long time. this is not the skin she started with. oluchi looks weird around her cheek area. hmnn. most of the guests look good!
Toke, u don carry? Face looking softer and lovely. Ugonna and Isoken – keep controlling our oil money. As for the Kardashian and Beyonce jean skirt – Must we copy? I rest my case.
Are you trying to say Isoken and Ugonna are dating?
I understood what fleur typed. Why did dating go to your mind?
Susan, biko how does 2+2 equal 596,308 ehn?
Really?
Maybe she didn’t understand cause I assumed what she typed as well. Just cause you got didn’t mean everyone will get what fleur said. Jeez.
Is Onyinkan Adetayo married now? Congratulations to her. I saw Ibby her cousin the other day in London. I did ask of Onyinkan Adetayo. They all look good.
Fab event and everyone looks so stylish.
Fun event with happy looking people
Ifan Vaseline is very cheap and must you always come outside to events looking rough.
HA!!! You spoke my mind
I c beautiful pple
Beautiful people!

***CURRENTLY IN JUPITER***
Classy. Sassy, feminine, yet simple. Love it! Adore she crush Genny :0)
#Taurus!
If ever in doubt, check how Genevieve does it.. Easy does it!
Genny looking fab as always…..a delight to my eyes all year round. Toke looks great, but her make up is sort of over board. Oluchi d lanky one, makes other ladies look so short, hehehehe. Not forgetting Wonu Okoye, she is so fine, classy n smooth looking. Her husband is so handsome. Chalya Shagaya, black is beautiful. Lovely event all together.
I love my Genny any day…muaah! beautiful people, simple n classy event
I’m sure Wonu is preggers she too much of a fashionista to go out with a big tummy without spanxx
Beautiful ladies in simple facade yet looking classy! The third to the last pix is hell bound!
Big girls step out in style…Love how everyone looks here..less is more and beautiful..Genevieve my all day crush, everyday.
genny is forever desirable,no one else comes close.
Genny remains my best actress any time any day. She’s so cute, natural and simple
Genevieve Nnaji. #that’sall
Genny all the way ,u can never go wrong in my eyes. always in a class of ur own.
Wonu has the cutest bump!!
Looks like Nnenna Okoye is bumping along too, or is it just the way she stood.
Love Chalya!
