Gentlemen's Quarterly.

Is it just me or are men really REALLY paying an extra attention to fashion? We thank God!

I dont care how fine you are if your ass is wearing a big tee and baggy jeans, it is not happening!! Granted guys make a good template( >they wake up, shower and wear clothes and still look sexy HELLO!) but if he dresses like crap and he is happy with it, no matter what you do you cant change his mind (trust me , i have tried) until he is ready and frankly i am too lazy, impatient and angry to wait around for that to happen(YES I AM SHALLOW LIKE THAT!) - (unless he is Will demps then he can wear a kente turtle neck and red hot pants for all i care)


I am notorious for "dressing up" all my "willing" male friends, helping them shop and suggesting ways to improve their sexy -insert earrings, black turtlenecks, nice fitted jeans (NOTE -i didnt say crotch stifling) nice shoes, watches (i am very particular, i detest leather straps eew), sunglasses (we chics can get away with rocking urban outfitter 15 dollar knock offs but guys HAVE to wear designer SORRY but its a must),signature scents (a dude has to smell like himself - there is nothing sexier! DOUSE YOURSELVES BOYS! DOUSE!!)

But anyway, right now Nigerian young men are going crazy with this fashion thing, we have everyone and their granddaddies wearing tight suits and cravats and pocket squares trying to do the grown and sexy or rocking keffiyeh's with tight Jeans and teeshirts - blah blah blah..i am bored:(....


I digress -"THIS IS ALL THANKS TO JAYZ, KANYE AND DIDDY and that damn bottle popping lifestyle that Nigerian boys are scrambling to adopt.

Like i always say, "fashion changes but style remains", I salute the gentleman who have been looking cool and dapper since before looking cool and dapper became cool...

So we decided to compile a list of my African men(apart from one) who are interesting, naturally fashionable, cool,who look good in whatever they wear, who i can shop with, who put clothes together in the RIGHT WAY and most importantly who stand out from the crowd.... since i am a SUCKER for suits, most of them are photographed looking very GQ ....who said African guys cant dress?!...

Enjoy ladies, i know you will, i know i did *wink*- definitely one of my top five lists lol.
