As a child growing up in Nigeria, Ade's fashion sense was strongly influenced by colourful African fabrics and bold prints. 'Dressing Smartly was always a way of life for my family' says the 26-year old.
"I'm amazed by the pictures, it's a total transformation from the person you wake up as; you see yourself on camera and you're someone else"
Today, looking presentable while working at a leading international bank has become part of Ade's job. She thrives in the adrenaline-fuelled, dynamic environment of the banking floor, yet is euqally content hitting tennis balls about with her sister 'pretending we're the Williams sisters', or shouting support to spur on her favourite football team, Arsenal, from the stands.
"My style mantra is don' t follow fashion, follow style - I try and choose clothes that suit my shape and proportions and avoid clothes that are ' in fashion' "
