Since uploading her first YouTube video in 2009, Jackie Asamoah (known online as Jackie Aina) has been a source of inspiration for an entire generation of beauty and fashion lovers. Seventeen years later, her career has continued to flourish, including the launch of her candle and fragrance brand, Forvr Mood, in 2020. But what remains the same? Her impeccable taste. "My personal style is a mix of elements," she tells Fashionista. It has to be "sexy" ("either the titties are out or the legs are out"), "figure flattering" and "consistent." Having worn everything from Oscar de la Renta to Luar to Christian Siriano, she calls out Sergio Hudson and LaQuan S...
