The Story Of LONDON Jewellery Merchant
In the London social scene, Bunmi Omabuwa is very popular. This beautiful lady is well known. Many of those who have never met her before, know of her & her name, which she sometimes stylishly spells as Bummie. She is not only beautiful, she is stylish and fashionable. She is also trendy in her style. Of course, she is very sociable. She works hard and plays her. She is a Jewellery merchant who sells Gold to many women in London and Lagos. She is the CEO of Chic n Classy Jewellers. Though she is London based, she has a lot of customers in Naija. “We make you rock the gems and would make you stand out in our exquisite pieces,” she said.
She has her group of friends she rolls with. She’s friends with so many equally popular ladies in London. They like her because she is dependable and loyal. Loyalty is key to her.
She used to live in Nigeria before she relocated many years ago. But she still frequents Nigeria whenever her friends have events & parties. She still visited Nigeria during the Xmas/New Year period, when some of her friends had celebrations in Nigeria. One of them Khadijat, Lola Pepe, an equally popular London lady was formally getting married after dating her husband-to-be for a few years. Bunmi was one of those who planned the Nigerian party, from her London base. She was one of the key organisers. She and Lola are like 5 & 6. They are close. All through November & December, she was pre-occupied with preparations. And thank God, the party was hugely successful. Over 100 London ladies stormed Lagos from London for the party. King Sunny Ade thrilled guests.
Bunmi Omabuwa returned to London later in January after spending about 2 to 3 weeks in Lagos. She was to return to Lagos in March for Otunba Shade Adesoye’s daughter’s wedding. Though she has lived in London for years, she has not forgotten her Nigerian roots. She has her pedigree here. She has family members here.
One other thing that has made her to be very popular in London is also because of her love for Fashion & Beauty. She is one of the best-dressed ladies in London. She is pretty no doubt. She is blessed with good looks and a figure that is attractive with a flawless skin that glows. She loves to scintillate with her dressing. She looks sexy at times. She loves tattoos.
She is a member of a white garment church in London. And she always looks stylish in her sutanas. Anytime she dresses up to go to church on Sundays she always looks regal. She wears the best sutana’s and she compliments her outfits with classy jewellery that enhances her dressing.
She also loves to dance. She is a good dresser. In church and at parties she is forever ready to dance. Many of her friends say they like her because she has a good heart and she is nice. They explain that in her own little way she has touched hearts and has helped a lot of younger people. That is why many younger ladies love her and see her as a role model. They like her success story. They want to be like her.
Why did she go into Jewellery business? She says she does jewellery more because ladies need exquisite jewellery. They also need unusual pieces. I sell fabrics too. But more of the costume jewellery and 18 karat Gold. I have been selling for over 14 yrs”.
