You love Yemi Alade and you want to hit the streets in a style similar to her? Here is how to be Yemi Alade in seven easy steps without doing too much damage to your bank account:
1. Love African prints
She loves African prints, and so must you. So get yourself prepared, tell your man to park well, you just found a new love. Hit the markets and buy as many colourful African prints you can afford (remember we are trying not to break your account).
2. Get yourself a very good stylist
I bet Yemi Alade’s got the best of stylists, so you need to find yourself an equally good stylist. One you can afford at that. Let your stylist do what she knows how to do best; let her draw up some really nice styles for you.
Keep calm….you are almost there…
3. Now let your hair go gaga
To complete your Yemi Alade look, you have no choice than to be much more creative with your hair. You most likely have to get yourself a new hairstylist too, or if your stylist is that good…lucky you!
You gotta have to ditch Brazilian weaves too, I’m sure your man would be relieved. All you have to do now is to get as many artistic items as you can lay your hands on, then weave your hair in different styles and add them. Occasionally do weaves though.

4. Collect accessories
No jokes, you need them! Go to your village, go anywhere, just make sure you find as many calabashes as you can find, in different sizes and colours (my advice to you, don’t wear them out though, for selfies maybe).
Don’t forget those beautiful beads too. In different colours too, without them you cannot replicate Yemi Alade’s dressing.
5. Go bum short shopping
Okay! So this is strictly for selected ladies only! You’ve got nice legs and figure and you feel it’s just proper to flaunt it, congrats…Yemi Alade’s fashion style gon’ suit you just fine! Go get yourself some really nice shorts, rightly matched with those pretty African prints tops…go girl!
6. Heels
You gon’ need a couple of heels too, in different colours. Heels you would be comfortable in though, we don’t want to embarrass ourselves in public do we?
7. Be bold
Yemi Alade’s fashion style is not one you come across on the streets every day; it’s so spectacular and attention grabbing. So to rock the style, have it in your mind that you will be drawing lots of attention from people, but you’ve got to learn to care less.
So baby girl! Put on that Yemi-Alade inspired outfit, raise your head high, put on your best smile, flip your hair and strut down the street.
