Cover: Taiwo Ajayi Lycett, Modupe Ozolua & Osas Ighodaro For Genevieve Magazine, March 2014 Issue.

'Beauty Through The Ages' is the theme for the March 2014 issue of Genevieve magazine, and appropriately, veteran actress Taiwo Ajayi Lycett, Plastic Surgery consultant Modupe Ozolua and rising actress and T.V personality Osas Ighodaro are on the cover of this issue. Lovely.
Memo-To-Our-Dear-Magazines: Ease up on the Photoshop. I saw Taiwo Ajayi Lycett a few weeks ago, and also watch her on Tinsel, she is a 73 year old woman who doesn't look like this woman on this cover, where are her 'character lines' and 'life marks' that she has gathered throughout her years living?. Keeps things are real as possible. Thanks.

Keep Walking.

Cover : Rita Dominic For Genevieve Magazine, February 2014.

Nollywood mega start Rita Dominic is the cover queen for the February 2014 issue of Genevieve magazine.
Nice ( if they didn't over-do the unnecessarily-heavy photo editing to her already-flawless skin. Look at her wrist!).

Keep Walking.

Genevieve Nnaji's 'Half Of A Yellow Sun' TIFF World Premiere White Ensemble, Love it or Love it?

Nollywood's Genevieve Nnaji  rocked this floor-length white jumpsuit by Nigerian design label Andrea Inyamah to the world premiere of Chimamanda Adichie's novel 'Half Of A Yellow Sun' movie adaptation at the on-going Toronto International Film Festival in Canada.

She accessorized her outfit with a white clutch and gold metal belt, finishing off her look with a simple sleek ponytail and side-fringe, light smokey-eye and pink lips.

I think this is one of Genevieve Nnaji's best looks till date, even though the length of the jumpsuit should have been about 1 or 2cm shorter.

What do you think?

Cover: Rita Dominic For Complete Fashion Magazine, January 2013

Nollywood queen Rita Dominic, A.K.A skin of life, is on the cover of the January 2013 issue of Complete Fashion magazine, rocking crisp white jacket over an LBD, plus some sassy short hair.
This is Rita Dominic, so she wins automatically, however, i'm not a fan of this hair on her, i know the whole idea is edginess, buy it just looks boxy and odd, and i don't understand that eyebrow i'm seeing...
I'll buy the issue anyway, and you should too, because it's Rita Dominic, so we can be sure it'll be fabulous.
