Totally Ethnik at Glitz Style Awards


#TeamTotallyEthnik
It’s been days after Glitz Style Awards and I still haven't gotten over the décor, the red carpet, the celebrities, guest and the entire night.

I attended the event with my client and her sisters (making the Totally Ethnik Team) who was also nominated as an Emerging Designer of the Year.

I was personally excited about the nomination and positive that we would win knowing the quality and uniqueness of TotallyEthnik Collections. However, I recognized the other designers in the same category knowing they have also done fairly well in the past few years.

The night ended with Emerging Designer winner awards going to Bertha Owusu of Lumiere Couture. Congratulations Bertha!

We are poised for a better year ahead.

Yes I was at the event but half of the period I was also at work as a Fashion PR Manager; taking photos and updating social media pages alongside and following the hashtag #GlitzStyleAwards

We decided to attend the event as a team hence everyone was styled in Totally Ethnik piece.

Check them out. Which is your favorite?

The Season of Beauty Pageants is here again


The argument about the credibility and relevance of beauty pageants to young ladies and the society would not end today or anytime soon.

For many aspirants, they want to participate in such competitions to be able to make an impact they believe they can only achieve by being beauty queens. For others, it is the best and easiest platform to become famous and gain quick attention.

Beauty pageants are public entertainment processes of selecting young girls in an elaborate, colorful and sometimes competitive manner. It is traditionally focused on judging and ranking the physical attributes of the contestants, personality, intelligence, talent, and answering judges' questions satisfactorily.

With just four (4) months to end the year, we are being bombarded with so much beauty pageant events such that it has become really difficult to keep track of them. Especially with the ones that engage in the reality show spanning over a period of time.


Amazingly, Miss Universe Ghana crowned their 2015 queen recently at a private ceremony at the Alisa Hotel for which many critics have accused the organizers for being discreet about the whole process.
Also, Ghana's Most Beautiful 2015 is currently showing on TV3 on Sundays at 8:30pm.

Organisers of Miss Malaika have also selected their contestants and the show has started airing on GhOne TV at 8:00pm every Sunday. Interestingly, Miss Malaika and Ghana’s Most beautiful showing time overlaps each other thus leaving viewers to choose which one to watch.

The nation’s oldest beauty pageant, Miss Ghana, has also joined the race. Although the pageant was called off last year due to controversies that surrounded the crowning of the previous queen, the organisers have bounced back this year with full vim and vigor with the whole audition and selection process across the regions. We are yet to know which television channel we should look out for Miss Ghana 2015.

As we look forward to witnessing the beauty queens from all four pageants, the question still remains: ‘How relevant are beauty pageants and do they truly affect our lives and our communities as they are portrayed?’ Or is it just another season of beauty pageants?

We would be following and hope this year’s events would be without controversies.

Best of luck to all the beauty queens, and I hope they will use their crown to effect change in our communities as purported by the organizers and aspirants.

 The maiden edition dubbed ‘The Alpha Edition’ featured Dr. Nelson K.R. Damale, an Obstetrician Gynaecologist and lecturer at the Korle bu Hospital on the cover page for his immense contribution to reducing maternal health death among pregnant women. For this I will say Dr. Damale, continue to do your best and God will do the rest. (Thank you for sharing your story with us)
