Hi, BellaNaijarians!

#BellaStylista is a new BellaNaija Style series for fashionistas who kill it every day! For work or play, this list is to inspire you as we celebrate those who inspire us with their sense of style. We’ll be sharing the top trends, fabulous street style looks and our fashion highlights for each week.

Fashion has taken a 360 turn! It’s no more about dressing to impress, rather BellaStylistas are dressing to express themselves – after all isn’t that what style as a whole is all about? Colours, textures, prints are all mixed and matched with reckless abandon. Self-expression is it’s the new cool and with fashion, it is oh so visually appealing.

Check out our favourite styles this week and don’t forget to tag us with #BellaStylista or send your photos and Instagram handle to [email protected] to be featured next week.
