Braids and African women are a classic pairing because historically, tight braids originated in Africa, since the nature of our hair made it essential to tie or braid it. While wigs are common today, there are times you might want to move beyond the monotony of wearing wigs and give yourself a fresh look. Fortunately, many trending braided hairstyles look fantastic. Apart from the popular box and knotless braids, the hairstyles below have personality and flair. 1. Patewo Braids   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Ayo Fierce (@ayo_fierce) Patewo is a Yoruba word that means clap. This style was very popular in our younger years, and now it has a modern twist. Patewo braids involve braiding hair from two sides, which then meet at the top of the head like two hands coming together.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Briá-Renèe (@briareneee) Today, extensions are often added, and two braids are left hanging in the front. It’s a gorgeous hairstyle indeed. 2. Layered Braids   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Celina Kama (@_celina_kama) This braiding technique uses curly extensions and isn’t braided completely to the […] The post Need Some Hair Inspo?

Did you hear about the new trend of taking ginger shots every day? Is that the miracle your skin needs to clear up acne and wrinkles? While skincare fads come and go, it’s important to investigate which ones are worth trying. Ginger shots are juice shots made from ginger root. Many people clean, peel, extract the ginger root and drink it to keep their skin free from acne and wrinkles, but does it work?  The National Institutes of Health in the United States published a study that showed ginger has been used for years to cure skin-related conditions; however, has it been effective? What Are The Benefits Of Taking Ginger Shots Every Day? 1. Packed with antioxidants The fact that ginger is a rich source of antioxidants is one factor contributing to its effectiveness against acne. A study published in the National Library of Science proved that ginger contains antioxidants. These antioxidants lead to smoother skin by neutralising free radicals and lessening oxidative stress, which causes acne and skin ageing. 2. Reduces inflammation According to research published in the National Library of Science, ginger is well-known for its capacity to reduce pain, swelling, and inflammation. Ginger shots include a lot of […] The post Ginger Shot Benefits: Can It Clear Acne and Smooth Your Skin? appeared first on BN Style.

Almost every woman remembers a time in her childhood when lip gloss was a staple. During our younger years, lipstick was often forbidden in schools, and lip gloss became the go-to for keeping lips moisturised, shiny, and glossy. Lip glosses came in different delightful colours and flavours, but those coveted had intense shine, glitter, and long-lasting wear. One would think that as we’ve gotten older, we would use more lipsticks than lip gloss, but many Gen Zs and young millennials born around 1995-1997 have stuck with lip glosses. Why is this, you may ask? Makeup trends have evolved, transitioning from the matte lipstick craze of 2016 to the current preference for a glossy, dewy, and almost luminous look. When searching for the perfect lip gloss, affordability is a key factor, alongside its moisturising properties and ability to last long on the lips. Although lip glosses are expected to be budget-friendly, many Nigerians living in Nigeria can’t afford lip glosses like Rhode, Summer Fridays, and Fenty as they cost between ₦20,000-₦60,000. For a single lip gloss? Yes! So, if you’re mindful of your budget and the above qualities, what’s the best lip gloss to choose? Based on the recommendations of three […] The post 5 Affordable Lip Glosses BellaNaija Style Editors Love appeared first on BN Style.

The 17th edition of the Headies, Nigeria’s premier award show celebrating musical excellence, was lit up by the presence of the ever-stylish actor and businesswoman Carolyna Hutchings. Stepping onto the red carpet, Carolyna was a belle in the dreamiest shade of blush pink.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Dr Carolyna Hollinworth Hutchings (@carolynahutchings) The exquisite gown, a creation by Oga Okoro, draped Carolyn perfectly with its strategic ruching, culminating in a daringly thigh-high slit that showed off her enviably toned legs.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Dr Carolyna Hollinworth Hutchings (@carolynahutchings) Complementing the delicate pink hue, Hutchings opted for pump heels in hot pink that matched the details on her bust. It’s safe to say that pink is definitely her colour, and we love to see it. The post Carolyna Hutchings Is A Belle in Pink Moment At The Headies 2025 appeared first on BN Style.

The 17th edition of The Headies, Nigeria’s premier award show for musical excellence, drew many celebrities from across the African continent. While musicians gathered for the coveted awards as the evening’s ultimate prize, the red carpet was an electrifying stage for fashion and style. The theme for this year’s Headies is ‘Unapologetically African’. From paying homage to their heritage with African-inspired outfits, to red-tie elegance in gorgeous dinner gowns and sharp tailored suits, one truth remains constant with the Headies: the red carpet is always a spectacle of fashion that extends far beyond the music itself.

As far as I can remember, attending a wedding party was a big deal. Even as a child, I saw how my mother and her friends prepared for weddings. After buying and sewing the overpriced aso-ebi, the desire to look as gorgeous as possible at the celebration is at the forefront of everyone’s mind, and the guests spare no expense to be among the best-dressed.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Mercy Eke 🛡 (@official_mercyeke) A Nigerian wedding is a symphony of style, with geles of different colours and designs, agbada, caps, lace corset dresses, iro and buba, shining jewellery, beautiful purses, and gorgeous high heels. The beauty of a Nigerian wedding lies not only in the bride, who rightfully takes centre stage, but also in the elaborately and gorgeously dressed guests.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Nkiruka 💎 (@kiky_festus) This glamour is amplified at celebrity weddings, where the stakes are even higher.

Waje‘s look to the 17th Headies Awards was nothing short of majestic. Radiating poise and power, she graced the event in a royal blue gown that celebrated her roots, a nod to her Instagram caption, “Royalty never forgets her roots. #theheadies2025.” Her gown featured a structured, beaded bodice adorned with intricate floral patterns in varying shades of blue that shimmered under the light with every movement. And then a voluminous satin skirt that gave her the princess look. What we think brought the whole look together was the beauty glam. She wore her hair in sleek, vintage-inspired blonde waves while her makeup kept the royal theme alive, with a soft golden glow and a perfectly nude lip. Pizzazz!

If you grew up in the ’90s and early 2000s, you likely heard the terms ‘Mary Amaka’ or ‘Deeper Life Skirts’ used to describe the long skirts worn by women. And when someone called you ‘Mary Amaka’, you’d probably work hard to let them know you’re a fashionista. Well, not anymore. Once synonymous with a holy and righteous lifestyle, these skirts are now back in fashion. Today, they are often paired with an off-shoulder top and, in some instances, a veil around the neck.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Doja (@shop.doja) In fashion, rules are fluid: what’s trendy today might be outdated tomorrow, and yesterday’s unfashionable item can become today’s must-have. Why are they back, you may ask? Well, let’s just say styles and trends come and go. However, one of the appealing aspects of this revived trend is its inherent elegance.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Powede Eniola Awujo (@powedeawujo) It’s also encouraging to see many Nigerian ready-to-wear brands incorporating this aesthetic, and another amazing thing about this look is it’s a simple style for your tailor to recreate. So, Bellastylistas, would you be caught slaying in […] The post Trend Alert! Long Skirts Are Back In Fashion appeared first on BN Style.

How do you dress when an event theme is “Unapologetically African”? Liquorose is showing us the way and we cannot get over her look at The Headies 2025! Designed by Prudential Atelier, she gave full androgyny fantasy blurring all the lines and serving a major style statement in a world that always wants us to fit into a box.

When A Lagos Love Story premiered on Netflix, the buzz wasn’t just about its romance or soundtrack, it was also about the fashion. Set during Lagos’ Art and Culture Week, the film leans into a vibrant, dynamic aesthetic that mirrors the city itself: bold, chaotic, soft in moments, and stunningly styled. At the center of the film is Promise Quest (played by Jemima Osunde), an aspiring event planner fighting to save her family home. Thrust into babysitting duties for rising Afrobeats sensation King Kator, she navigates a whirlwind of celebrity chaos, sibling drama, and unexpected romance. But through it all, the one thing that remains consistent? Fashion is always saying something.

When Priscilla Ojo walked down the aisle to marry Juma Jux, the world was in awe of the jaw-dropping masterpiece that was her wedding gown. It was a mermaid-shaped silhouette, beaded to perfection, made by Veekee James. And now, the visionary behind that gown, designer Veekee James, is giving us an exclusive peek into the process that made this dress a reality. Veekee shares the inspiration behind her dress, citing God as the major source: “Before I created Priscy’s wedding dress, I went to God that I wanted to create a masterpiece for her.” Priscilla also shared that she had always envisioned herself in a mermaid gown made by Veekee James. “I always dreamt of a mermaid dress. I did fittings, but this was the first time (her wedding day) I saw it fully completed.” And… she got her dream dress! “You (Veekee James) don’t have any bad looks, so I obviously knew you were going to kill it. This is my dream dress.”   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by VEEKEE JAMES ATERE (@veekee_james) For Veekee, the process wasn’t more than the design; it was a spiritual journey. “I pray over my staff… I have […] The post From Concept to Couture: Veekee James Shares the Design Process Behind Priscilla Ojo’s Mermaid Wedding Dress appeared first on BN Style.

There’s a reason Wunmi Mosaku is firmly on the fashion set’s radar, and it’s not just because of her breakout performance in Sinners, the buzzy, box-office smashing Ryan Coogler and Michael B. Jordan collaboration. Her recent press tour has been nothing short of a style revelation. While promoting the film on late-night talk shows, at intimate screenings, and on major red carpets, Mosaku has delivered a masterclass in elevated, directional fashion. Since the tour began in late March, she’s served over ten distinct looks, each one a confident blend of a fashion-forward spirit and her own evolving sartorial identity. Whether in sculptural silhouettes or soft, romantic tailoring, Mosaku continues to thrill, abetted by her stylist Shameelah Hicks Senat. Her willingness to take risks—and to own them—has made every appearance a moment worth watching. In short: Wunmi Mosaku isn’t just a star on the rise. She’s a red carpet force. And the best part? She’s worn almost exclusively Black & African designers; from Harbison Studio to Sisiano,  Zuri Kenya to custom Theophilio, Wunmi and her brilliant stylist Shameela have kept it very much on theme and on point!

A rotation of sleek, sculptural braids that strike the perfect balance between classic and contemporary. It’s vibrant beauty done the Wunmi Mosaku way; clean, confident, and quietly show-stopping.

Hi Bellastylistas! The wedding of the year has just reached its peak. It’s been a thrilling ride watching the display of love, fashion, and beauty.

One special thing about Yoruba weddings is the tradition of outfit changes. It is common for the bride and groom to have a first, second, and sometimes even a third look throughout the day. This adds more excitement to the celebration and gives the couple a chance to show off different styles. In recent times, this tradition has grown even bigger. Now, it is not just the couple changing outfits. Guests, friends, and close family members have also joined in, showing up in multiple looks that are just as stunning. The result? A wedding full of fashion moments and back-to-back glamour. It is no surprise that Yoruba wedding fashion has caught the attention of many across Nigeria and even beyond. From Instagram reels to TikTok videos, the style, colour, and creativity at these weddings often go viral. Other cultures have started to adopt the idea of outfit changes too, making it a trend that keeps growing. At Priscilla Ojo’s wedding, we saw this in full effect. Not only did the bride and groom step out in more than one look, but many of the guests and family members also had wardrobe changes that left everyone in awe.

Priscilla Ojo and Juma Jux got married yesterday in a beautiful traditional Yoruba ceremony, and it was everything you would expect and more. If you have ever been to a Yoruba wedding, you know it is not just about two people coming together. It is a full celebration of love, family, culture and, of course, fashion. Everyone came ready to shine. The women wore colourful and well-crafted aso-ebi looks with matching geles, while the men showed up in neatly tailored agbadas and fila. But all of that is incomplete without the “big aunty looks”. Styled in rich fabrics, soft silk, and bold colours, your favourite big aunties celebrities had all eyes on them. It was all about looking good, representing culture and age in the best way, and they did not hold back. Each look was carefully planned and beautifully finished.

You can never go wrong with a classic bùbá and ìró. And when it’s styled with a well-tied gele and a carefully placed ipele, it’s a look that always stands strong, timeless, bold, and rich with culture. We see this with Mercy Aigbe‘s look at Priscilla Ojo and Juma Jux’s traditional wedding celebration, Her first look was the olive green lace aso-ebi worn by many of the ladies, styled as a flowing gown. The bodice had a gradient effect, starting with lime green at the top and fading into a soft beige at the waist. The skirt was draped with soft gathers in front, adding volume and movement. To complete the green look, she wore a bright orange clutch. Her jewellery included drop earrings and stacked bracelets, and her perfect facebeat brought it all together.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by MERCY AIGBE ADEOTI (@realmercyaigbe) For her second look, Mercy Aigbe stepped out in a pink lace bùbá and ìró, fully adorned with floral embroidery in silver, pink and gold accents.

Earlier this week, Priscilla Ojo’s bridal crew gave us a beautiful preview of what was to come with the bridesmaids stepping out in mini Ankara and Kitenge dresses, and the internet could not stop talking about the looks. It was the perfect mix of tradition and playfulness, and it got everyone wondering what the final bridesmaid look would be.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by BellaNaija Style (@bellanaijastyle) As the days went by and the excitement grew, fans and fashion lovers tried to guess the colour and theme for the main event. Would they go bold? Would they keep it traditional? Or would it be something completely unexpected? Then the big day arrived, and the bridesmaids did not disappoint. They showed up looking like real-life dolls in soft pink gowns, styled to perfection from head to toe. The theme was clear: Barbie-inspired elegance with a touch of Yoruba charm. The dresses were sweet, stylish, and full of personality. They moved with grace and carried the look so well, adding extra sparkle to Priscilla’s special day.

If there’s one thing we’re taking away from Priscilla Ojo and Juma Jux‘s (now Mr and Mrs Mkambala) traditional wedding, it is that the guest did come to serve style. And serve they did.

If you thought Priscilla Ojo and Juma Jux’s first look for their traditional wedding was a showstopper, wait till you see their second look. The celebration is still in full swing, and the couple have returned in a whole new wave of wow. For their second outfit, Priscilla and Juma are giving us rich shades of red and green – and it’s nothing short of stunning.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Africa’s Top Wedding Website (@bellanaijaweddings) Priscilla is dressed in a silver lace gown that sparkles from head to toe. The bodice features a deep V neckline and is covered in shimmering crystals, beads, and sequins arranged in patterns that catch hints of red, green, blue, pink, and white. The long sleeves and shoulders are just as decked out, with textured appliqués adding more drama. Her skirt continues the shimmer story with a scale-like pattern and more embellishments that tie it all together. She finishes the look with a maroon gele, a matching clutch, a maroon ipele draped over one hand, and layers of jewellery picking up the same deep tones.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Priscilla Ajoke Ojo (@its.priscy) Juma Jux […] The post Meet Mr & Mrs Mkambala!

The wedding of the year is underway, and Priscilla Ojo and Juma Jux are giving us a lot to talk about. While we’ve shared looks from the aso-ebi ladies and bride’s mother, let’s take a moment to take in the stunning first look of the bride and groom. If anyone could wear pink, orange and purple so elegantly, it’s definitely this couple. Both are dressed in the traditional Yoruba aso-oke attire. The bride (Priscilla Ojo) is wearing a beaded dress with ruffled layers at the hem. Her accessories are minimal, choosing a diamond necklace for a clean, polished look. Juma Jux might be Tanzanian, but an agbada sure looks good on him. The front is detailed with embellishments in orange and touches of gold embroidered down to the hem. This look is complemented by long beads around his neck. His purple staff is symbolic. With it bearing the carved map of Africa, Juma Jux seems to be paying homage to a love that transcends countries, symbolising the union between two African countries; Nigeria and Tanzania. Like the designer described, “this look is a statement in power, poise and precision.”   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by […] The post #JP2025: Get The First Look at Priscilla & Juma Jux’s Traditional Wedding Outfit appeared first on BN Style.

If “birthday behaviour” had a location, it just might be Habitas AlUla. Fashion designer Sandrah Tubobereni celebrated her last birthday with a dreamy escape to Saudi Arabia’s desert gem, and she did it in the most stylish way possible. From sunrise lounging to golden-hour glam, the trip is serving luxury, leisure, and body goals in one perfectly curated photo dump. Little wonder she hoarded photos for so long. Let’s be honest, Tubo never misses when it comes to fashion. But this time, she’s adding travel girlie to her résumé. Her vacation wardrobe? Tubo woman! And, of course, easy glam and skin that’s absolutely thriving under the AlUla sun. Every look is a reminder that rest and luxury can co-exist — and should.   And here’s the fun twist. Priscilla Ojo also spent her birthday at Habitas Alula earlier this year. Coincidence? Or are the girls quietly naming this the new “it” spot for birthday getaways?   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Priscilla Ajoke Ojo (@its.priscy) We’re starting to think that this desert oasis might just be the ultimate destination for 2025 birthday baddies. Think about it. Peaceful views, bucket list experiences, jaw-dropping photo ops, and […] The post Sandrah Tubobereni Is on the Ultimate Birthday Getaway and It’s Giving Soft Life Supreme appeared first on BN Style.

Earlier this year, we declared it loud and clear: 2025 is the year of the pixie cut. From Ayra Starr’s edgy, textured take to Kim Oprah’s sleek, sculpted version, the short crop has been everywhere. It’s bold, stylish, and impossible to ignore. But just when we thought we had seen all the ways this trend could show up, Bamike Olawunmi-Adenibuyan, popularly known as BamBam, entered the chat with a pixie cut so soft, so striking, that we had to pause and take it all in. Known for her beauty and often described as a walking ode to peak femininity, Bam Bam actress, and star of the hit romance film Love In Every Word,  just debuted a fresh pixie cut,  by hairstylist Faith Alex, that’s turning heads across the timeline.    View this post on Instagram   A post shared by BellaNaija Beauty (@bellanaijabeauty) What makes BamBam’s version of the pixie so powerful is the way she wears it without losing an ounce of her signature softness. Rocking a short crop that’s often tagged as edgy or boyish, and still radiating the same romantic energy we know her for. It’s proof that femininity doesn’t come from length, curls, or coquette aesthetics. […] The post Did BamBam Just Give the Pixie Cut a Feminine Twist? appeared first on BN Style.
