By now, you should know that I totally celebrate African chics who are making it happen!
Well Shingai Shoniwa of the U.K. band The Noisettes is definitely one of them! And she is doing it uber fab!! Check out her fashion statements on the red carpet. What I heart about Ms. Shoniwa, much like her band, is that she marches to her own fashion beat!
Shingai was born to a Zimbabwean single mom who had emigrated from Zimbabwe back in the day when it was known as “Rhodesia”. Rolling Stone magazine said that “Shoniwa is a living, breathing manifestation of the rock & roll spirit, with a voice that is equal parts Iggy Pop and Billie Holiday.”
In her stage persona, Shoniwa looks like what the New Yorker called “an African supermodel“…her stage performance I hear and have yet to experience is something FIERCE! But of course….peep flicks of her uber fabness!














Gone girl!
