South African Style at its Best: Oprah Beamed in Green at her Leadership Academy for Girls Graduation

Oprah Winfrey was beaming in green at the inaugural graduation for her Leadership Academy for Girls in Henley on Klip, South Africa. The graduates were very excited about their accomplishments and ecstatic to celebrate with Ms. Winfrey. Though fashion was the least of her concerns at such a joyous occasion, always stylish with a touch of grace, Oprah wore a beautiful silk emerald dress with a earth-tone tasseled belt.

She founded the Leadership Academy for Girls in January 2007 in an effort to provide leadership and educational opportunities for gifted girls from impoverished backgrounds. “I’m one proud momma today, I always held the vision that this day was possible,” Oprah said at the celebration.
