My outfit to Yes International Magazine anniversary

by: Chichi Maduka

I should have posted this a long time ago but I guess it's not too late. The event took place on the 19th of June at the Coliseum events centre, Ikeja. It was the second year anniversary of the Yes! International magazine which featured a lecture and cocktail. I didn't want to wear a gown, so I settled for trousers and a top. The event was two-themed (i.e lecture and cocktail ) so to say and held in the day time and I decided to wear something that didn't appear too formal like the regular trouser suit getup but still made sure I appeared dressy enough for the occasion - a quite dramatic black, flowy, chiffon top, paired with black, well-tailored, boot-cut trousers, black shoes, and a black bag. I decided to jazz up the look with a cream-coloured Befenchy necklace and earrings, a brown belt and bracelet. The bracelet was one of my jewelry collections as well and all of these gave me a look that suited the occasion.

Who and who represented style at the Miss Nigeria Pageant?

 by: Chichi Maduka

This year's edition of the Miss Nigeria beauty pageant took place on July 6th at Intercontinental Hotel Victoria Island, Lagos and here are the attendees who came out well clad to the event. They dressed to the occasion in the right outfit, accessories and on-point from hair to toe, standing out from others. Take a look:

Eku Edewor looking ravishing in this lovely, long cream skirt and peplum top. Loving her hairdo as well.

Dakore Egbuson-Akande in a blue evening dress and red clutch. She should have worn a necklace though.

I love everything about Bola Balogun's look especially her shoes.

Going with the trend is Isio Wanoghon in this long, black, chiffon and sheer lace evening dress.

Loving Kenny Saint Brown in her mono strip red gown and a bold butterfly necklace. Unique look!

Munachi Abi in a little grey dress and a lovely shoe to go. Nice brooch.

Celebrities that stepped out in style at the BET Awards

by: Chichi Maduka

The 2013 edition of the BET Awards has come and gone. The event which took place at the Nokia Theatre, Los Angeles, California on Sunday 30th of June saw celebrities strutting their stuff on the red carpet and some going controversial in their outfits. As you all know, Befenchy House of Style is all about everything that stands out in style and so I share with you the pictures of the celebrities who stood out in their dresses.

Lala Anthony simply looks gorgeous in this high shoulder dress which she accessorised with a lovely blue ankle-strap heels.

Jordin Sparks surely knows what's trending as she stepped out in this classic little print dress.

Plunged neckline outfits come in various forms and Mya definitely selected the most appropriate, classy one to wear.

I love Janelle Monae in this white pant suit which she paired with an embellished turtle neck outfit. Take a look at how she accessorised using a simple necklace that goes so well with the embellishment without appearing overdressed.
