They say the only thing constant in life is change, and in an ever-evolving world, change is something Natacha Akide has certainly undergone.
With 300k shy of 3 million followers, Tacha is a force to be reckoned with when it comes to social media influencing.
Tacha the It Girl

Interestingly, it wasn't always like this. 'Classy, elegant Tacha' was not an overnight success.
Throwing it back to 2018
The year before she got into the Big Brother house, Tacha had already begun to build a name for herself on social media.
However, unlike in the present, Tacha was described as anything but classy back then. With loud makeup, ill-fitted dresses - most of which were often sized too small - the reality star didn't exactly paint the picture of a fashion goddess.

Due to her love for twerking on the gram, and her controversial takes on trending issues, she gained quite a following online.
Despite this, many people still regarded her with little respect.
BBNaija 2019
Then, the fourth season of the BBNaija commenced and for the better part of her stay on the show, her fashion game was anything but classy even though it stirred controversy due to its revealing nature.
From wardrobe malfunctions including a 'nip-slip' to various other concerns raised by Nigerians, Tacha's fashion sense was a trainwreck in need of real work.
Following her unceremonious exit from the show, she immediately got signed to Teebillz's management and photos released during that period showed a great improvement in her sense of style.
After her exit from Teebillz's management, however, a lot of people were scared that she would go back to her old style of dressing.
Sadly, she proved these people right when she turned up for the 2019 AMVCA nominees' party in a black dress from hell.
As expected, the dress earned her loads of backlash from internet users.
One person wrote:
"Tacha has no sense of style. Wardrobe malfunction."
And for a while, it seemed as though there was no redemption for Tacha's wardrobe but we couldn't be farther from the truth.
Although it didn't happen overnight, Tacha eventually found a way to put the class and elegance stamp on her 'bad girl' swag.
Hind, a lady who says she has been a fan of Tacha for over 6 years, spoke to Legit.ng about the star's sense of style and how she had been misjudged by the public.
“Tacha’s growth is no secret as it has been obvious to a lot of people. All the old photos and videos of Tacha in which she was half-naked were only meant for social media influencing and were all shot by her then-boyfriend.”
Soon, she began to reveal less and also started to try out new looks, most of which were different from her usual style.
Everything from her makeup, hair and composure changed and it is all for the better.
While some of the credit goes to her styling team, there is no doubt that Tacha, herself, was deliberate in improving her sense of style, therefore putting her mark in the game of fashion influencing as far as Nigeria is concerned.
"What I love and cherish most about Tacha is that she is ready to learn. She's ready to correct any mistake you pick out. There are so many things that Tacha is doing now and it is because her fans spoke to her about it," Hind says.
Today, Tacha stands tall amongst the celebrity fashionistas in Nigeria, and it is kudos to the beauty of change that time allows.
From sporting cringe-worthy looks to turning heads in impeccable ensembles, Tacha is not wrong to call herself the 'It Girl' for she is it and everything more!
