Click2Styles The Magazine is delighted<br />
to be a Media Partner of the 4th<br />
Annual Runway Liberia Show 2018.<br />
My name is Toni Huff Editor-In-Chief<br />
of Click2Media. I Initially started<br />
Click2Styles in 2010 as an online directory<br />
of hairstylist to bridge the gap<br />
between the beauty industry and consumers.<br />
Since then we have had four<br />
major print issues. In the first issue<br />
we featured top stylist from Central<br />
Texas, and in the second issue we<br />
upped the ante and dared to be different.<br />
We introduced our first innovative<br />
double magazine, Click2Styles/<br />
MenInStyle. It is one of the only flip<br />
fashion magazines with Click2Styles<br />
on one side MenInStyle on the other.<br />
MenInStyle captivates the masculine<br />
side of fashion. Click2Styles<br />
rips the style straight off the runway<br />
featuring designs from top to upcoming<br />
fashion designers as their models<br />
grace the catwalk, we highlight<br />
some of the hottest trends from top<br />
hair stylist which adds to our uniqueness.<br />
As expected by our readers,<br />
we have maintained the luxurious,<br />
high-quality images. The magazine<br />
you are holding is a little snippet of<br />
what we do. So, sit back and enjoy<br />
as we continue our journey to bring<br />
you the best in Fashion and Lifestyle.
Afreecaa Brand was created in<br />
early 2016, during a time when African<br />
Culture began its slow but steady<br />
merge into mainstream. Conspicuously,<br />
African fashion references appeared<br />
on the runways of “Fashion<br />
Week” in major cities worldwide, and<br />
in the wardrobes of influential people.<br />
Afreecaa Brand was birthed with<br />
promise, and its purpose was to unite<br />
cultures through fashion and creativity.<br />
Delivering garments that references<br />
all cultures, while showcasing African<br />
fashion flare, Afreecaa Brand is<br />
cultivating apparel for the masses.<br />
Afreecaa Brand strives to speak the<br />
universal language of art, music, and<br />
color, through its one of a kind pieces.<br />
What is Afreecaa Brand? A brand<br />
that cultivates freedom of expression;<br />
