About me

Michael Okunloro | Elevate Your Style

Back in 2015, I launched xclusivemic.com as a personal journal, enabling me to share my thoughts, connect with friends, assist men in improving their fashion, and document the events I host. Writing has always been a passion of mine, and having a blog felt like a natural fit. It was during my relocation to Bristol, England in 2021 that I truly realized I could take control of my life and the power of my blog. Those initial months were challenging, as I had to navigate a new city without the presence of friends or family. However, with my pen and journal in hand, I found solace in my love for fashion, writing, and reading, despite the hardships of starting anew and experiencing the loss of my mother due to a failed kidney transplant.

In August 2022, I embarked on a transformative 21-day writing journey that changed everything for me. This voyage has bestowed upon me a sense of purpose and a deeper appreciation for my talent, as well as my fashion brand, Twelve19styles, which originated on the bustling streets of Lagos, Nigeria in 2016. Over the years, I’ve been thrilled that my blog has served as a platform to educate men on enhancing their fashion, fitness, and faith. It has also become a medium through which I share my own experiences and guide others towards making better choices and learning from their own journeys. Additionally, I’m grateful for the opportunities to collaborate with various brands and create compelling content.
