Even for red carpet events she gets the pieces together and picks what she thinks is the best look for her and she is dishing all about it.

"From the very early ages to where I am now I have always been told that cleanliness is next to Godliness so much so I fell in love with my image and then created a brand around it" she said about the image she's built over the years crediting social media for making her a global brand.

Speaking about fashion in Nigeria compared to South Africa, Bonang noted that it wouldn't be fair to compare as both have different ways of interpreting their styles, where Nigerians can be a bit daring and play with lot of colours, South Africans tend to be a bit conservative.

She talks about everything from fashion, celebrity friends, being an ambassador to major brands, mentoring girls and more in her full interview with Pulse TV, watch it above.
