FLORENCE H SETS TO OPEN BY THE END OF MAY, 2012. MALIKA HAQQ IN TOWN TO HELP WITH HYPE

In case you all might have forgotten, Florence H is the new shoe store that's owned by Abisola Kola-Daisi nee Ajimobi, the first child and by extension the first daughter of the Oyo State Governor- Senator Abiola Ajimobi.

The new, first class shoe haven is located on the Island- Musa Yar' Adua, Victoria Island, it's just next to Carima De Laurent's Nail Place, in fact Carima is Abisola's Landlady and just above the store is Folake Folarin Coker's Tiffany Amber's Flagship. If all things works as planned, the new store should open to customers by the end of this month- May, a bird in the know whispered into our ears that the opening date is most likely any of the last days in May, but knowing Abisola very well, she might change the date again after this expose to try to throw us off.

One major thing that cannot be disputed whatsoever is that the store as it is now is unrivalled by any yet in Lagos, in terms of the interior. The new shoes store used to be the space occupied by Vivienne Chioloji's Pride & Joy a while ago, before she moved to her own place somewhere at Lekki Phase one, where she now operates both her high-end gifts store and a first class salon.

According to those who have had a sneak peek of Abisola's shoe store, they describe the interior as very elegantly sumptuous, extraordinarily appointed and unbelievably beautiful. Imagine covering the walls with suede-like fabrics, in Purple or Burgundy colour, we hear that the place is a feast for the eye, as you enter the first thing that meets the eyes, are these fantastic framed-like openings or cubicles on the wall, where shoes would be displayed, the openings were so exquisitely done, that they can easily deceive the eyes, at first look you would think they are gilt-edged gorgeous frames, till you move near and see that they are real, fabulous looking shoes and mirrors have been placed so elegantly and expertly to cause a mirror-like affect, we also hear that there like 5- gorgeous bird-cages where shoes would be trapped (displayed) for all to see, there are also glass stands on opposite sides that would display some of those first class shoe brands worn by ladies of style- the Christian Louboutins (don't worry, she didn't get the franchise), Rene Caovilas, Guiseppe Zanottis, Hermes, most probably Roger Viviers and the likes.

We hear the unbelievably gorgeous store was designed from carcass by one of the most gifted interior geniuses in Lagos- Saheed Sulaiman of Studio Sulaiman, who from the little snippets we are getting is ranked as one of the world acclaimed, young interior designer of note, he moved back to Nigeria not long ago.

We even heard that Abisola's dad, His Excellency himself gave nods of approval and thumbs-up on sighting the daughter's store. So friends, family members and customers alike are all eagerly awaiting the opening. Trust Abisola, who revels in media attention so much, she has brought in her American celeb friend- Malika Haqq,- Actress, Television Personality who is also Khloe Kardashian Odom's best friend forever, you would have seen her on episodes of Keeping up with the Kardashians, Khloe & Lamar and Kourtney & Khloe take Miami. We hear (though not confirmed) that Malika would be around for like a month as part of 'the package' to help drive attention towards the shoes store. Don't be suprised if more of Abisola's American posse all come to Lagos, Nigeria one after the other. It's all part of the package.

We have a few pictures of the upcoming place, that we would release very soon.

OYO STATE FIRST DAUGHTER- ABISOLA ABIOLA AJIMOBI & HER SUPERSTAR CREW

Just like we said last night in our story about former Governor- Ibrahim Idris-who we said has taken wife Nos 13, when we said ‘when you are big, you are big’. We have had to repeat that common saying again, only a few hours after we first used it.

This time around we are using it in the case of the very delectable first daughter of the Executive Governor of Oyo State- Abisola Abiola Kola-Daisi. The gorgeous mother of one, who we reported in an earlier post about her plans to open a one of a kind shoe shop, which is tentatively called Florence H, at Musa Yar Adua street, Victoria Island is in the news again. She was seen in America rolling with one of her super star friends.

Long before coming back to Nigeria from the United States a few years back, she was known to have several friends amongst the superstars of Hollywood, who we heard they used to roll together having the best of fun and times, as there was enough bucks to play with then. That was before; her hardworking dad became the action Governor of Oyo state.

She seems to be reliving the good times as we speak, as shown in 2 pictures we came about on MediaTakeout.com, which was posted on the web today- April 10, 2012. She was seen driving with the equally delectable Lala Anthony. Lala is the gorgeous American star (TV Hostess/Business owner) who is married to Carmelo Anthony- a professional basketball player, who plies his trade with the New York Knicks.

There is the possibility Lala Anthony might even come to town for the opening of Florence H, if the kind of friendship we think is on between Bisola & Lala is anything to go by. And Hmmmmmmm, whose is that Yellow Birkin Bag???????
