Priscilla Ojo Takes on a Soft-Tone Corporate Look
Priscilla Ojo’s style is often youthful, expressive, and fitted to the pace of her public life. But when she decides to explore something calmer, something rooted in simplicity, and structure, it becomes worthy of a second glance. Her recent soft-tone corporate outfit did just that.

Image: Instagram
She wore a two-piece set made of a soft pink knit fabric. The top is long-sleeved with a round neck. It features subtle sparking stone buttons down the front. The bottom is a high waisted mini skirt paired with a structured handbag from Priscyluxe and white pointed-toe high heeled shoes. Her hair is neatly styled.
This look is simple, soft-toned, yet unique. Where dark tones are becoming the order of the day in the corporate world, this emphasizes the need to stand out regardless.
Soft tones are a great way to elevate a corporate look without going overboard. It also adds a touch of warmth to the overall look.

She’s known for her ability to pull off daring looks, from glamourous gowns, suits, to corporate look is just a reflection of her versatility.
In many ways, this look felt like an update on what a young woman stepping into corporate conversations could look like today. Not over-prepared, not over-dressed. Just sure of her space and dressed in a way that matches that self-awareness.

Chioma Ikokwu Honours Igbo Heritage in Two Outfits
Chioma Ikokwu has always known how to make an entrance, but when she steps into culture, she does it with purpose. Recently, she appeared in two outfits that paid clear, unapologetic tribute to her Igbo roots, not as costumes. She captioned the pictures “I love my culture” and “When culture meets fashion.”

Image: Instagram
The first look is a traditional wedding inspired look. The top is a red off-shoulder, corset-style beaded detailing in front paired with a long, white, layered wrapper with a voluminous, ruffled design around the waist and hips, creating a dramatic silhouette. She finishes this look with her beret-style beaded hat, coral beads around her neck and wrist and a horse tail to make it a full royal regalia.

Her second look was a rich red Isiagu wrapper draped style. The top is a corset made style with a tree root illusion. The bottom features a red draped velvet that mimics double-layered skirts. The skirt is designed with a lion head (Isiagu) strategically placed on it. It’s a prominent motif in Igbo traditional wear signifying strength, royalty, power, and authority. She completes this look with a matching gele, a choker necklace, and black beaded handbag.
The highlight of her second outfit is the styling. Isiagu hasn’t been styled in that way before. She went further to ask a question in her post “Have you ever seen the Igbo Isiagu staple interpreted this way before?”
Wearing Isi Agu isn’t new. But presenting it like this, on this kind of platform, with this kind of calm assurance, is powerful. It reminds us once again that tradition doesn’t belong to the past. It belongs to whoever carries it and how you want it to be reflected.
These outfits were worn for a significant cultural event; for the chieftaincy title celebration of her father and her cousin Obi Cubana in Oba, Anambra.

How Chioma Ikokwu Stepped Out for Juma Jux Concert in Lagos
Chioma Ikokwu makes it a goal to arrive at any event with intention. For Juma Jux live concert in Lagos, she stepped out in a way that was bold, clear, and fully aligned with the energy of the night. There was no guessing or second-guessing. She knew what the event was about and didn’t fail to deliver with her looks.

Image: Instagram (Chiomagood hair)
She wore an army green cropped sports tank top, a matching olive green, cropped bomber jacket that looked like it was made for only her but in a subtle way that said structure and strength, worn open. Her bottom is a high-waisted, slightly fitted cycling shorts which had Gucci logo patterned on it. A light coloured olive green cap is worn on her head. The highlight of this look is her strappy heels. It came with a boot-inspired design making it one of its kind. Not forgetting her blonde bob hairstyle and full makeup. The look is chic and coordinated.
The goal was not just to be live but be present in looks. It’s almost difficult to walk past her without noticing her style. Her look was direct, tough, and well thought out. She didn’t overload the look with extras. Her accessories were clean. A tiny silver chain on her neck, bangles, and wristwatch.

At a concert like Juma Jux’s where energy is high and fashion can tilt into costume territory, she chose something grounded yet iconic. What stood out most was how self-assured she looked. That’s not something you can borrow from a stylist or find in a trend.
