Many women in Nigeria, and everywhere else, are constantly trying to balance a million things.  You’re trying to build your career, take care of your family, and sometimes, it feels like you’re just trying to survive the day. It’s not just about doing a million chores; it’s about dealing with what everyone expects from you, and what you want for yourself. That’s why eating right is so important.

More Than a Mother: Rashidat Olere on Healing from Postpartum Depression
Motherhood is often painted as a blissful journey filled with joy and bonding. But for many women, the reality is far more complex — and far less talked about. Rashidat Olere, Operations and Sales Manager at BellaNaija, knows this firsthand. After welcoming her children, she found herself battling an unexpected and overwhelming darkness: postpartum depression. In this candid conversation, she opens up about navigating the emotional toll, the trauma that shaped her experience, and the support that helped her find her way back to herself.  What are the common symptoms of postpartum depression, and how do they differ from typical “baby blues”? Many mothers describe it as a vacuum—an emotional numbness that they can’t quite explain. In my case, I lost confidence in myself and felt suicidal after the birth of both of my kids. There was a strong urge to self-harm, and I struggled with overwhelming sadness for a long time. Unlike baby blues, which resolve on their own, postpartum depression lingers, making it difficult to function and enjoy life. Postpartum depression is more intense and lasts longer than baby blues. While baby blues bring temporary mood swings and mild sadness, postpartum depression creates a lingering sense of emptiness, […] The post More Than a Mother: Rashidat Olere on Healing from Postpartum Depression appeared first on BN Style.

Redefining Luxury: How Rafiat Clothing is Elevating African Fashion to Global Prestige
Luxury fashion has always been a symbol of prestige, exclusivity, and meticulous craftsmanship. From the grand couture houses of Paris to the intricate, handwoven textiles of Africa, the concept of luxury is evolving. Today, luxury is no longer just about the price tag or brand name—it is about innovation, cultural depth, and the artistry behind every stitch.  In this new era, designers are redefining luxury by blending traditional craftsmanship with modern silhouettes, proving that heritage fabrics and artisanal techniques can stand alongside the finest materials in the world. One African designer leading this movement is Rafiat Taiwo of Rafiat Clothing, a brand that has mastered the art of elevating heritage fabrics into high fashion. With the world tilting towards sustainability and a focus on unique style, true luxury is  no longer confined to mass-produced high-end labels. Instead, it is about:  Exclusivity: Designs that are unique and handcrafted with precision.  Sustainability: Using fabrics with rich histories and ethical production processes.  Cultural Appreciation: Fashion that tells a story, honoring traditions while embracing innovation.  African fashion is playing a major role in this shift, with designers pushing the boundaries of textiles like Aso-Oke, Damask, and Chantilly lace, turning them into statement pieces that […] The post Redefining Luxury: How Rafiat Clothing is Elevating African Fashion to Global Prestige appeared first on BN Style.
