VANESTYLE MAKES IT INTO FORBES MAGAZINE

By vane-style - August 08, 2013

     Yeah, i know. So maybe we didn't but our styling skills did! Forbes in this month's issue, celebrated five captivating and powerful African Women Entrepreneurs and yours truly got the honors of glammin'them up for the magazine covers. Our main goal was to color up that power whilst also showcasing their African-ness in demure tones.

    The five all-ladies power ensemble were made up of Nigeria's Tori Abiola, Clare Eluka, ChiChi Nwoko-Udeokoro, Wuraola Abiola and Senegal's Magatte Wade, all of them moguls in the business of beauty care to media and events management. To do it right we got them styled in occassion appropriate pieces from foremost African designers, Deola Sagoe and Duaba Serwa and we must say it helped that our ladies all come from and still operate in businesses that deal with looking good, the shoot was fun and light and we were even able to get a divine quote from media mogul, ChiChi Nwoko-Udeokoro on one of the key tenets of style.
       ".....as African women we should not forget that we come from a legacy of sophisticated business women"

Well, we at VaneStyle simply translate it to mean, regardless of the profession you practice it never hurts to do it looking stylish. There you go!
