Meet the Image Shoppers...

Here I am,'The Tireless Shopper' ! My name's Joy and I hope to bring Joy to your lives through styling you Fabulously . I have always believed 'the moment you look yourself in the mirror and like what you see, is the beginning of a lifetime romance with yourself''. For me, watching that happen is priceless!
I am a certified Image Consultant with the Institute of Image consulting.

Coming from a Fashion background, was inspired by my mum who designed and created clothes for a living...I was brought up around clothes and have stuck to following and creating fashion and style. I designed my clothes through my teenage years, due to my zest for being different and finding myself using styles and fabrics that truly fit me, to create my signature look.

I have since found Joy in helping others create their own look to fit their personalities. Thinking I would have ventured into arts to harness my personal skills and talent, I did my undergraduate degree in Business Administration and an Msc in Management Consultancy and Human Resource Management. I work as a training consultant and have gained useful years of service in marketing and working within the Recruitment sector. Working in Recruitment has made me understand why we truly need to be different in the way that we look.

While training as an image consultant, I did charity work with the British heart foundation in dressing mannequins, where I could demonstrate my style savviness.

I am an Alumni of University of Abuja, Leedsmet and Heriot Watt University.

Who is A Fabstar ?

While clothes may not make the woman, they certainly have a strong effect on her self-confidence - which, I believe, does make the woman
- Mary Kay Ashe

While deciding a name....I knew without a doubt when the name Fabstar crossed my mind that it had to be that ... I had an idea of what incorporates the word Fabstar ..There was no better word to describe it than this ...
So as many might be wondering; knowing I have been asked this by several others ....

WHO IS A FAB STAR :-

• A Fabstar is one whose difference makes an impact
  

• A Fabstar looks fabulous all the time

• A Fabstar is a bold, assertive and an intelligent individual; you know one when you see one

• A Fabstar knows how to portray the right image through colour and style

• A Fabstar knows what fits them

• A Fabstar is ready to face the world... looking it right in the face

• A Fabstar has got the right swag

• A Fabstar spends time and money on looking FAB
  

• A Fabstar leads a disciplined life (in all areas)
  

• A Fabstar is Different; thus Irreplaceable
  

• A Fabstar lives life on the FAB lane
  

There you go...if you ain't got it, fake it ...it will soon become next skin!

Shopping with you for an image to create a brand called 'YOU'

You have no competition when there is nothing like you....It's called branding. When you buy Gucci ,Prada or even Cocacola; most of the time you bought the name than the product. That can work for you too . We all have same qualifications for the Job and same relevant experience ..We need to learn to brand ourselves so as not to be comparable with anyone else .

Branding is all about packaging ..'Physical packaging' whoever said looks do not matter????? Everything can be imitated apart from 'YOU' . Fabstar Image shoppers can shop with you to create that brand called 'YOU'...Remember clothing is an extension of one's personality.
when I say people brand ...I'm thinking one that shows :-

• Power and Strength :- ability to be assertive, show leadership strengths
• Sexiness and Fearlessness : - ability to present your best self forward
• Creative with no Boundaries : - ability to make your own rules
  
• Fearless Uniqueness : - not being scared to be 'YOU'
• Greatness :- standing out in the crowd

Live your brand ; Live life ! Choose FAB !
