Celebrity women are the delight of parties. When you see them at parties, you can be sure that the party will be lightened up. One of such parties was when Lagos society woman and Iyalaje of Oodua Market, Lara Akinsanya, popularly called Affordable, hosted the crème-de-la-creme to a big engagement wedding for her daughter, Anuoluwapo Oluwaseun in Lagos. She got married to her beau, Oluwadara David in a colourful wedding at Villa Park Hotel and Event Centre, Amuwo Odofin, Lagos. The party was 60 per cent full of women. Why? Lara Akinsanya has many friends that cut across. Many celebrity women stormed the party in their beautiful Coffee Aso-Ebi with a turquoise blue headgear.
Almost all the women wore the Aso-Ebi because the party was more or less a show of class. Celebrity women are usually the life and soul of parties because with women, you can be sure of having unlimited fun. This set of women is big-time textile merchants, due to the fact that the bride’s mother is a textile merchant who runs Affordable Fabrics. Some guests are into haulage business, some are upward and mobile career women in top places while others are behind some money-spinning companies. They love to look good and this was what happened at the party. Most of them stepped out in their best attire, one significant thing about all of them apart from wearing the same outfit is that their necks did all the talking with their expensive jewellery in diamond and gold. First are the couple’s mothers, Lara Akinsanya and Olayide Ropo Tusin. They both looked astonishing in their turquoise blue all sequenced outfit fit for queens and matched the lookup with dazzling gold jewellery alongside beautiful shoes and purses.
Sighted at the party were their siblings, all the way from France and Dallas in Texas, who looked beautiful in their uniquely sewn outfits. They were up and doing at the party. Also is Alhaja Bola Owoyemi, CEO, Rikaz Fabrics. She wore the aso-ebi in wrapper and blouse style and complemented with simple but nice gold jewellery. She had fun all through with her cousin, Mrs Iyabo Balogun, who is another fabric merchant. She sits atop Maibor Fabrics. What of Lagos society woman, Barr. Shade Balogun? She looked elegant like she always does. She stormed the venue in a beautiful sequin velvet coffee lace and paired it with the turquoise blue headgear. She matched it up with a lovely designer bag and purse. At the party were some set of top celeb women who party together, they share a close friendship with the bride’s mother and have been together for over 20 years, the likes of former NPA top shot, Nana Yakubu, Betty Elegba and Queen Ayo Balogun who was on the bandstand.
