Ladybrille Magazine Gives American and European Women the 'Africhic' Global Style and Entertainment They Want

Ladybrille Magazine Gives American and European Women the 'Africhic' Global Style and Entertainment They Want

SACRAMENTO, Calif., Sept. 3 /PRNewswire/ -- When it comes to fashion and lifestyle products, American and European women enjoy taking risks and setting trends with products that seamlessly integrate into their lifestyles. Until now, these women have embraced products from Asia, Europe, and the USA but NOT Africa.

Africa has largely been ignored because mainstream coverage of the continent has failed to show these women products that resonate with them.

Ladybrille(R) Media Group, Inc. breaks the mold with the launch of Ladybrille Magazine, http://www.ladybrillemag.com/, a regularly updated, African-inspired, aka "Africhic," global style and entertainment website and digital monthly magazine that stands as the authority on African fashion and entertainment for the globally conscious style-driven American and European woman.

"Ladybrille Magazine is the first publication to take Africa's global style and entertainment directly to the Western woman," said Uduak Oduok, company founder, fashion model, attorney and journalist. "The magazine, which began as a blog in 2007, is a fusion of WWD, Vogue and ESSENCE with a very distinct African perspective," adds Oduok.

"Ladybrille Magazine is an important publication," says popular American actress and comedian Mo'Nique. "It brings African-American women new, current, and informative information on African culture, that we should be in touch with, like no other magazine."

The Magazine features both Africa's unknown and known personalities in music, film, fashion and the arts worldwide. It also features news, business and interviews. It was the first to feature exclusives on Nigerian/German singer Ayo, who now enjoys play time on USA radio stations, Liberia's Maimah Karmo, a breast cancer survivor who subsequently appeared on Oprah alongside Christina Applegate and Nancy Brinker, and Liberia's Korto Momolu, an American household name and contestant from Bravo TV's hit show Project Runway, Season 5.

"Ladybrille Magazine has taken us out of the shadows and into the light of the cultural mix of talent that is yet undiscovered, as well as those currently in the spotlight," says Leslie Asfour, fashion insider, Professor and cousin of Gabriel Asfour, Three Asfour designer. "Its insights are uncanny and its ability to communicate it through a visually stimulating format is pushing the envelope in media today."

"Ladybrille will forever hold a special place in my heart. [It was] the first [African focused] magazine that reached out to me!" says Korto. "My debut in Ladybrille sparked a great fuse in my career. I'm confident that it will continue to uncover and highlight all the 'diamonds' Africa has to offer by being true and efficient, and in my opinion, one of the leading blossoms of our time."
