editor's note<br />
Dear Readers,<br />
I hope the cupid has visited you this month?<br />
well, for me it's all mixed feelings on what<br />
love is perceived as by different people. How<br />
it affects our lives positively and negatively.<br />
I could still go and on but; my focus would be<br />
on the theme " Spousal Love and Support"<br />
In the society today, we encounter a lot of<br />
stories and lifestyles that one might begin to<br />
wonder if couples still see each other as ONE<br />
BODY or One team.<br />
Some have lost sight of the fact that once you<br />
are married, you and your partner have to<br />
support each other. One partner's success<br />
automatically has become the success of the<br />
other. But No! It is now a competition,<br />
bragging rites and all worth not.<br />
I am not pointing fingers here or taking sides,<br />
so let me explain. In a scenario where a<br />
woman brings in the bulk of the cash into the<br />
home and the husband starts feeling "less of a<br />
man" or a woman that makes a lot of money<br />
and forgets that she has to drop her BOSS<br />
LADY cloak at the doorpost of her home and<br />
assume her wifely duties.<br />
Don't get me wrong, you might feel<br />
overwhelmed doing all that BOSS LADY and<br />
WIFE duties, get the required help you and<br />
make sure you oversee everything.<br />
And for Husbands that hate it and clinch at<br />
their women's or wives success. I have a<br />
message for you.<br />
YOUR LOSS! You should be her piper while<br />
she does her belly dancing. Make her look<br />
good, encourage her and show her love and<br />
support. Then watch her conquer the world.<br />

WHAT IS LOVE TO YOU?<br />
love? Some say love is a beautiful thing, others say love is a wonderful feeling and<br />
THE REAL TALK<br />
WITH GIFT COLLINS<br />
Everyone says February is the month of love because of Valentine's Day. So all over<br />
the world, men, women and even transgenders celebrate love. But first what is<br />
some others say love is life, life is everything. I am not disputing any of these<br />
descriptions but if love is all of this, why do we carve out one day Feb 14th to<br />
celebrate it. Why not each and every other day? Why is there a specific day to<br />
celebrate love? You may not know the history behind Valentine's Day but here's a<br />
quick summary. There are two varieties of the Valentine story, one says Valentine<br />
was a saint who went against the wishes of Emperor Claudius to conduct<br />
marriages for couples after getting married was banned<br />
The other version says, he was the first to send a love card and he signed it off with<br />
from your Valentine. I prefer the latter because it's sweeter but it doesn't change<br />
the fact that Saint Valentine was a man who embodied love and willingly<br />
sacrificed himself in celebration of love. To him, love was worth his life.<br />
"love is a wonderful feeling"<br />
So I ask, what is love to you? Love to us at style beat magazine, is you, yes! you, our<br />
amazing readers. Love to me is like a bed of roses with a pillow of thorns, beautiful<br />
yet it can scar you. Love is my little escape route from life hassles, love is my<br />
paradise and as we celebrate this dearly beloved month of love, let's not forget that<br />
love transcends beyond Feb 14th. Let us love each and every day but first, I ask<br />
again, what is love to you?<br />

My husband also provides me with a very strong support system. It gets really tough sometimes<br />

prayer and encouragement, I have learned to balance out all aspects of my life.<br />

don’t joke with my sleep.<br />

THE SOFA TALK<br />
ENYI:<br />
• What is the latest collection of your Eyelash line like? What inspired it? And how has your<br />
CHINAZOM<br />

The latest collections are ‘oge’ and ‘uju’. They are in the dramatic series and have been accepted<br />

shoots and music videos so the demand inspired it.<br />

MY HUSBAND...
THE SOFA TALK<br />
CHINAZOM ENYI:<br />
• What does it feel like to move from Nigeria to Kenya? And how long did it take you to fit<br />
into the Kenyan Lifestyle?<br />
I was devastated when my husband told me about the move. I couldn’t imagine leaving my friends,<br />
family and work behind but It didn’t take me long to fit in because I put my mind to ensuring I grew<br />
my beauty brand here and of course I made friends along the way, a lot of which are my clients<br />
• In this social media age would you say the concept of “love, fulfilment and having it all as a Boss<br />
Lady” has been misunderstood?<br />
Well, generally yes. The misconception is usually around what people see as fulfillment, what<br />
their goals are. For some it’s get rich or die trying by any means necessary, for others it’s<br />
finding love and settling down to have a family and for people like me it’s doing what I love<br />
and being famous for it and still being the best mum and wife that I can possibly be. Ladies,<br />
you can be whatever you want to be and do whatever you want to do. Don’t let society<br />
dictate to you. It’s all about dreaming big, setting priorities and grabbing opportunities that<br />
come your way. Your dreams are valid!<br />
STILL BEING THE<br />
...<br />
MUM AND WIFE ...<br />
BEST<br />
PAGE 12 | <strong>STYLEBEAT</strong> <strong>MAGAZINE</strong> <strong>NIGERIA</strong>
THE SOFA TALK<br />
CHINAZOM ENYI:<br />
• How supportive has your husband been towards your dreams? In the Nigerian society,<br />
some men don’t actually want their women to be goal getters or “Boss ladies” what is your<br />
take on that?<br />
My husband is my number 1 fan and biggest critic! He encourages me every single day. There is no<br />
rest for me with him around. He believes I can do anything I set my mind on. With all that belief &<br />
support, I can’t even give up. He is truly a blessing.<br />
• What is your favorite quote? And your advice to young mums like you this Valentine?<br />
If you can think it and believe it, you can do it. For the young mums, you are beautiful. Be the<br />
best you can be and look your best for you, your husband and your kids every day.<br />
• Could you give us a sneak peek at how you would be spending your Valentine’s Day,<br />
notwithstanding the fact that it’s on an Ash Wednesday?<br />
Valentine’s day is a special day just like every other day with my Husband. Every day is Valentine ’s<br />
Day for us…. That said… we will be taking a trip to a beautiful beach that weekend.<br />
The Stylebeat Mag Team can’t thank you enough for this wonderful time on the Sofa. We<br />
hope you had a swell time with us too. Thank you so much, Mrs. Nazee.<br />

Perhaps one of the most "Oscar-baiting" movies of<br />

Perhaps one of the most "Oscar-baiting"<br />
movies of the year (Meryl Streep, Tom<br />
Hanks, Steven Spielberg!! Come on!)...<br />
The post couldn't have come at a better<br />
time...<br />
A historical drama set in the early 1970's<br />
depicts the story of Kat Graham... And<br />
her fight to do the most difficult thing in<br />
the Reagan administration was to tell<br />
the truth.<br />
Meryl Streep does it again... Proving for<br />
the 61st time that she's more than a<br />
cold and technical actress. With her<br />
performance less proves to be more…<br />
And without excessive dramatics or<br />
hysterics.. We are sucked into life of the<br />
incredible woman Katharine Graham<br />
and what it means to risk everything to<br />
make the right choice. Tom hanks is as<br />
brilliant as ever in his performance as<br />
Ben Bradlee and with an ensemble cast<br />
including Alison Brie, and Bob<br />
Odenkirk... The acting in this film leaves<br />
nothing to be desired.<br />
Steven Spielberg is as masterful as ever<br />
with the post... With every movie we<br />
wonder if he can ever measure to the<br />
brilliance of "Saving Private Ryan". We<br />
are amazed each time and the post is<br />
no exception. Writers, Liz Hannah and<br />
Josh Singer do an amazing job with the<br />
script with half the material and in half<br />
the time!!!<br />
In all, The Post is a great movie on the<br />
threshold of becoming a master piece<br />
but narrowly falls short. Not to worry...<br />
We predict at least 5 nods at the<br />
Oscars Best actress for Streep, Best<br />
actor for Hanks, Best director for<br />
Spielberg and Best Screenplay for<br />
Hannah and Singer.) So, Go watch “The<br />
Post” and be shocked at how History<br />
has a way of repeating itself...<br />

Big brother on my timeline and mind.<br />
" STREETS THE ON "<br />
The hot topic on all our lips and social media pages is the Big brother Nigeria that is<br />
now ongoing. Even children who were mere babies when the maiden edition was<br />
aired are getting all excited and already picking favourites. Numerous reactions have<br />
trailed the commencement of the third edition and as usual, we are on this streets for<br />
the juiciest "tatafo " on the topic. There is the first group who are mad excited to<br />
watch other people do all manner of stuff on camera because they finally have live<br />
'amebo' to engage in. Then there are the people who are just glad that the show is<br />
back on as a great distraction from the effects of poor governance both on the side of<br />
the government and the suffering masses. There are also the social commentators<br />
who have put on their judges' hat, ready to watch to see and decry the moral<br />
decadence of the 21st-century Nigerian youth. But in all things, there is some lesson<br />
or knowledge to be gleaned. I personally can bet you dear reader that most watchers<br />
of big brother do not realize that it was inspired by the ominous surveillance system<br />
in the futuristic world of George Orwell's 1984. There you learned something new.<br />
Now let's get our popcorn and prepare to enjoy the show. Which "nation" shall I join?<br />
I ask myself based on logistics.<br />

The<br />
The artist is Akanimoh Umoh, a<br />
watercolor realist painter. Style beat<br />
magazine Nigeria had the utmost<br />
pleasure of discussing with him<br />
about his perception in the new year<br />
for his art and his art mistakes in<br />
2017.<br />
Here is what he had to say:<br />
Q: What is your personal<br />
perception of your art and the sales<br />
for you?<br />
A : Well.. personally I look<br />
forward to strengthening<br />
already existing relationships<br />
between myself and my clients<br />
and also with new clients<br />
interested in my art direction.<br />
I also hope to chart a new<br />
direction in my art too;forging<br />
new partnerships, evolving new<br />
styles and being a bit more<br />
professional in my approach this<br />
time around. Hopefully there<br />
would be no setbacks this year.<br />
( he laughs) but where such<br />
happens, I bet it's best I pick<br />
myself up, dust myself over and<br />
surge ahead like everyone else.<br />

The<br />
Q: What are the Challenges you<br />
faced in 2017 and what do you<br />
think 2018 will look like for you?<br />
A: Well..2017 was borderline<br />
okay.<br />
For my art, I had decided to let my<br />
Watercolour take a back seat and<br />
concentrated on drawings<br />
instead. I was going through a<br />
torrid time emotionally and I<br />
didn't want my emotional state to<br />
gradually seep into my<br />
watercolours so I decided to<br />
leave it on the back burner for the<br />
time being.<br />
On the flip side, in an effort to<br />
strike a balance, I decided to<br />
become a bit more outgoing and<br />
started attending art events and<br />
exhibitions and parties a bit more<br />
often than I normally did in the<br />
past.<br />
Q: Where can we view your<br />
artworks?<br />
A: (On) My Instagram handle<br />

chat with the brilliant and bubbly exhibiting artist that is<br />
shattering stereotypical glasses of what has conventionally<br />
donned a male-dominated field for the most part. She<br />
identifies herself as an artist first and her artwork seeks to<br />
express a strong African sensibility. In her own words, "I<br />
