TUNDE AND WUNMI OBE QUIT MUSIC?VEERS INTO TV PRODUCTION

Talk, talk,talk is all over town and it is such that can not be ignored.Rumour mongers are saying that singing duo, Tunde and Wunmi Obe (popularly known as T.W.O) would soon quit music.
According to people close to T.W.O, they are diverting their huge human and financial resources into night time and weekend television.However, a spokperson for T.W.O denied the rumour.
‘They can’t be quitting just yet, says a spokesperson. It has been a long career and they have a lot of fans that look up to them, TV has always been their thing, same with music and they’ve been able to manage the two together over the years, so what is stopping them now?’
Time would tell!

Livin' DAVIDA-Loca

Davida Okparah, the Barrister turned pristine Shirt Maker, has leapt off the edge, breaking every rule with her latest collection - POWELA. The 2004 St. Moritz Style Awards Winner - Davida's vintage shirt-making prowess was put to the test on this collection as she ventured into the unfamiliar territory of dress-making. The shirts are anything but ordinary and mundane. From what I can identify, the collection outlines three major genres; from the sassy office wears which spice up the bland day, the classic shirts, highlighted with a touch feistiness and the demure dresses with the subtle undertones appropraite for the sexy chic. This inimitable collection with its dazzling eye-popping colours, intricate designs and inspiring brilliance; confers upon the style fashonista the right to be FIERCE, FABULOUS AND FLAWLESS.

Just View the pictures and let us know what you think.
