For celebs in general, Instagram has not
only become a medium to share photos of their daily life but a way to
show off their personal style. So please believe that when it comes to
the creme de la creme of Naija’s entertainment industry, they are
showing us more than enough STYLE to work with and admire! So with that
said, let’s get into the MOST STYLISH CELEBRITIES IN NIGERIA!
TOKE MAKINWA
First up we have radio personality, Toke
Makinwa! With her dark long locks, flawless makeup and demure style she
reminds me of a life size Barbie doll. Or rather the more exotic version
of Barbie. Every time she steps out on the red carpet or snaps a random
photo on Instagram you can tell she’s all about being a LADY. Even when
she does something edgy with her look it still exudes femininity.
ALEX EKUBO
Please believe I had to add the one and
only Alex Ekubo. Take a look at that photo first and tell me his style
is not on point. Apart from being a very handsome man, he knows how to
wear a suit and tie. You can tell he likes to look sharp and clean. I
don’t think I’ve ever seen him look undone. He is always put together…
and although he’s dressed in all black in the photo above, he knows how
to incorporate bold colors into his wardrobe which can never hurt.
GENEVIEVE NNAJI
Another no-brainer was the incomparable
Genevieve Nnaji. It seems like the older she gets the finer she gets and
along with her looks her style becomes more and more classic. She can
wear the hell out of a dress and make you want to buy it right off the
rack and if possible wear it off her back. There’s something sexy yet
subtle about the way she dresses. It doesn’t overpower you but creeps up
on you but in a good way.
UTI NWACHUKWU
Next up we have Mr Uti Nwachukwu! The
only man that can rock this style of dreads! When I first saw Uti at the
NEAwards last September with his plaid suit, I was like… wahala deeeey!
Like who else could pull that kind of suit of, if not him? All I know
is that he follows his own trends not what fashion dictates! Ultimately
that is why is he on this list!
RITA DOMINIC
Now Rita Dominic, gets a standing ovation
from me. She has really grown into her own woman style wise! I’ve been
noticing all these vintage inspired outfits and dresses she’s been
rocking to events and on red carpets. Recently she wore a huge hat, baby
blue blazer, white collared shirt and trousers to Tuface’s wedding and I
absolutely loved it. She’s been trying new things when it comes to her
coordinating a look and I must say that I am impressed. Levels have most
certainly changed honey!
EBUKA
When it comes to colors, Ebuka, knows how
to mix and match them! Adding color to a man’s wardrobe can be tricky
for most but I guess he falls under another category. I personally think
the color blue looks great on him! Gentleman: take note… no offense.
Kate Henshaw is in same class as
Genevieve when it comes to the kinds of clothing they would go for but
Kate’s athelic build just allows any dress to look great on her and fit
like a glove. I also love that she sports her natural hair at times
…when you have to let your hair just breathe y’know!
Aside from the exposed D&G briefs and
Jesus piece in this photos… oh and the bare chest, D’Banj does have a
style all his own. Yes men were wearing suits in Naija before he came
around but in a sea of artists rocking the latest kicks, T-Shirts,
tailored jeans, D’Banj made it sexy and appealing to wear suits as an
entertainer in Naija.
TIWA SAVAGE
Tiwa is a fashionista through and though.
She not only wears dresses and outfits that look great on her. She adds
accessories to the mix and in a bold way! Check out the gold cuffs on
her wrist and gold plated necklace she’s wearing in the photo above.
These are the little additions that can take an outfit from nice to a
show stopper and Tiwa does that perfectly.
BURNA BOY
Burna Boy! Burna Boy! Burna Boy! This
guy’s style just makes me think of Puffy aka P. Diddy back in the days
when he was rolling with Biggie sans the sleeveless shirts and tattoos
of course. Maybe its the shades, I don’t know but I get that vibe from
him. I love the way he dressing down and how he dresses it up, he never
seems to have a care as to what others around may say or think. Some may
call that cockiness, I call it confidence. That’s something you need to
have if you’re going to walking around with leopard printed sleeveless
top and dark shades.
Well, these are my top ten! You may not agree so go ahead and tell me who you think should have made this list!
Till next time…
Deuces
