I couldn't stop staring at these pics this morning. Tolami Benson just casually dropping fashion bombs on Instagram while the rest of us are in our pajamas trying to figure out what day it is.
Benson, who's been quietly dating Arsenal's golden boy Bukayo Saka (rumor has it since 2020), absolutely killed it in an all-black ensemble that had me questioning my entire wardrobe choices for teh past decade. Those leather trousers? Pure fire. The plunging top? Perfection. God. Some people just know how to dress.
Central Cee and a Cute Dog - Because Why Not?
From what I can gather, these stunning shots were taken when she attended Central Cee's performance at the O2 in London. The rapper was there for his "Can't Rush Greatness World Tour" back in late April, and Tolami clearly didn't come to play.
She shared a series of photos that had her 206,000 followers absolutely losing it in the comments. My personal favorite? The adorable snap of her cuddling a tiny dog. Nothing says "I'm fabulous but also approachable" like posing in leather while holding a puppy.

The Instagram Crowd Went WILD
Listen. The comments section was basically a shrine to her look.
"Stunning." "Star girl." "Gorgeous." "Sensationallllll." "Ok baddie, in awe of you forever."
I mean... same. I spent $200 on a "going out" outfit last weekend and looked like I was attending a funeral for my fashion sense. Meanwhile, Tolami's over here looking like she walked straight off a magazine cover.
Their Mysterious Love Story
What's fascinating about Benson and Saka is how they've managed to keep their relationship largely under wraps in an era where most footballers' relationships are dissected like high school biology frogs. They don't even follow each other on social media! In 2023, I couldn't even go on a coffee date without posting about it.

But the secrecy hasn't stopped Tolami from being Saka's biggest cheerleader.
From Germany to Madrid - She's Always There
She was spotted as part of the WAG contingent during Euro 2024 in Germany, supporting England through their campaign. Poor England... so close yet so far again.
More recently, she was cheering from the stands during that nail-biting Champions League quarter-final against Real Madrid at the Bernabeu. Remember that match? My heart nearly stopped when Saka missed that early penalty, only to redeem himself with that gorgeous goal in the second half. Arsenal won 2-1 that night, and I like to think Tolami's presence had something to do with it.
Unfortunately, Arsenal's 1-0 loss to PSG on Tuesday wasn't the result fans hoped for. Dembele's early goal proved the difference.

Can Saka Turn It Around?
The second leg at Parc des Princes is happening today, and you can bet Tolami will be there, probably looking impossibly glamorous while the rest of us stress-eat chips watching from home.
Arsenal haven't made it to a Champions League final since 2006 (when they lost to Barcelona), adn I'm sure Saka is desperate to change that narrative. Having your stunning girlfriend cheering you on can't hurt your chances, right?
I've been following Arsenal since I was 12, and this Champions League run has taken years off my life. My husband threatened to hide the remote after I threw a cushion at the TV during that PSG match.
The Quiet Power Couple
With over 200,000 Instagram followers, Tolami has built her own following while supporting her superstar boyfriend. Yet somehow they've managed to keep their relationship relatively private in a world where privacy is as rare as an Arsenal clean sheet. (Sorry, Arsenal fans, but you know it's true.)

Whether Arsenal make it to the final or not, one thing's certain - Tolami Benson will continue turning heads wherever she goes. And I'll continue wondering how she walks in those leather trousers without making that awkward squeaking sound that happens whenever I try to wear anything remotely similar.
