I have always been a lover of fashion, especially ladies’ fashion. But not until recently have I been so in awe of one celebrity, Lupita Nyong’o. If you are not familiar with Lupita Nyong’o, she is the beautiful Kenyan actress who starred in 12 Years A Slave.

I know that most celebrities in Hollywood have stylists for award shows, movie premiers, etc., but the celebrity gives the final approval for all selections. And it’s not just the styling of Lupita Nyong’o but also her personality and demeanor in front of the camera that make her so magnetic. She is always smiling, pleasant, and stands proudly as she should.

Lupita Nyong’o gives me hope that we can go back to a time when our women dressed and acted like queens and do not have to expose themselves for attention and notoriety.  Thank you Lupita Nyong’o for bringing back flawless, classy, timeless beauty.

Who is your favorite celebrity fashion icon and why?
