Pics: Lupita Nyong’o Debuts Lagos Slay Queen Look

Lupita Nyong’o, Oscar award-winning actress, has made her first appearance as a Lagos slay queen as she stepped out for a Lagos party.

The actress stunned in a long skirt and blouse ankara; she paired it with blue aso-oke (gele), making the perfect Nigerian Owambe attire. She had all eyes on her at the event.

Nyong’o landed in Nigeria in February to promote her screen-adaptation of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie‘s  best-selling novel, Americanah. Since then, the actress has been having a swell time in Lagos.

Sunday night, the Oscar-winning actress celebrated her 37th birthday with even more celebrities. And Monday, she attended the celebration of the life  of Olusegun Akanni Doherty.

She shared photos of herself on Instagram with the caption:

“Funmbi said, ‘Make her look like a Lagos slay queen.’ Tolu obliged.
Grateful to have been a part of the celebration of Engr. Olusegun Akann Doherty’s well-loved life.”

This is not the first time that the Black Panther actress has totally nailed it in African inspired outfits. However, this is the first time she’ll be rocking a complete Nigerian attire. And she totally killed it.
