Harnessed in its birthplace of London, fashion brand Liiber London with a tagline of “Be Liiber, Be Free” combines the sights, sounds and smells of Cosmo London to concoct unique limited pieces for the vibrant freedom loving fashionista.

The brand unveils "NOIR" its new SS14 collection at London's biggest premiere fashion platform Pure London from February 9th to 11th at Stand A11.

Pure London has become the UK’s leading fashion buying event with over 12,000 buyers from independent, department stores, multiples and e-tailers  attending each season, not only to source brands, but also to place orders.

Using this unique opportunity, the “NOIR” collection inspired by the famous quote by car designer Henry Ford which states "You can have any colour you want as long as it is black”, Liiber London will present to its public and buyers a collection which will be a mélange of elegant, stylish and edgy items all in black with a surprise pop of colour on certain items. 

Liiber London invites you to a fashionable 3 day experience where you can shop while champagne sipping and cupcake munching…what else can a fashion lover desire?! The “NOIR” experience right?! See you there!

NY TIMES SUNDAY REVIEW:WHAT DRIVES SUCCESS?

Hello people..New week. New Opportunities. New Beginnings!

Interesting Article on NY Times Sunday Review..."What Drives Success"

"It turns out that for all their diversity, the strikingly successful groups in America today share three traits that, together, propel success. The first is a superiority complex — a deep-seated belief in their exceptionality. The second appears to be the opposite — insecurity, a feeling that you or what you’ve done is not good enough. The third is impulse control"

"It’s odd to think of people feeling simultaneously superior and insecure. Yet it’s precisely this unstable combination that generates drive: a chip on the shoulder, a goading need to prove oneself. Add impulse control — the ability to resist temptation — and the result is people who systematically sacrifice present gratification in pursuit of future attainment."


It is a great read...Click Here for article.

Have a nice week...and have your say!

My take on the SONNAH Awards. 

First Off. A big CONGRATULATIONS to Akim Macauley  for his vision and to everyone who participated in making it a reality. It is a GREAT first step. For the first time in Cameroon (I dare say?) people were recognized and celebrated and witnessed by soo many people around the globe.

R & R (Review & Rant)

We have to build our own "Celebrity Culture". If you want to get known and recognized, you need to put yourself out there! The Sonnah Awards is a great start! 

Excellent initiative but execution...hmmm. It is not easy to start something and not an award show for that matter. I applaud everyone involved. With team work and more collaboration it can only get better.

It seems there is a "Dichotomy" in the entertainment industry 'cause it felt more like watching the Cameroon "Anglophone" entertainment awards..Sorry may be I just feel bad that artists that I expected to be nominated weren't but I am sure you get the drift.

There is a need for more private sponsorship in Cameroonian Entertainment industry as a whole. It can only make things better.

On Fashion...Some of the attendants were very much on point!Our celebrities need to focus on building their brand...Styling & public speaking are key. Get a stylist already. We have so many designers. Support our Camer designers.. I will leave it at that or else I can go on and on!

Mix Up on Awards?? Only in Camer!

Presenters, Presenters, Presenters...Please please and please.We need people who are eloquent, can rock the red carpet and ignite a crowd. This one was one my pet peeves about this event. Better female presenters and MC please. I can already think of a couple...

Do we need more award categories..I would say Yes and No...No because it's a start. and Yes to recognize more people..It's up to the academy oh!

Pre-award party - Social/Networking events??  Next time..Oh Yes. this is an excellent opportunity for private sponsors to create buzz

Location & Venue
I am not sure if that was the ideal venue for the event. An event planner can only work with what they have. A more flexible space will be better ...To another city may be? Anyone say Limbe? TOL (Thinking out Loud)

PPP and more P: Pictures, PR, People, Packaging, Presentation....
It's almost 3 weeks since the said event and still no official pictures?? There is a great need to have PR for an event of this magnitude..Their role cannot be overemphasized..Having the right people, proper packaging & presentation are what make an event. 

OK people, that's my take on the SONNAH Awards..I hope more celebrities attend subsequent editions to be recognized. Thumbs up to Akim Macauley & team!

Long Live the SONNAH Awards!!
