Lupita Nyong'o on the Cover of Vogue.
Oscar winner Lupita Nyong'o is having the best year ever. Some people dream all their lives of being on cover of Vogue, and Lupita, in the whirlwind that's surrounded her career, has landed July's "Women to Watch" cover. Yes ma'am. I'm proud of her success in the entertainment industry, especially with her being a black woman. And a dark skinned black woman at that.
Traditionally, darker black women weren't put in the spotlight or celebrated in the industry. If there was a successful black woman, she was usually a fair skinned, silky haired beauty. And I'm so happy that the perception is changing on what beauty is today. She is, after all, People's Most Beautiful woman in the world.
Even though Lupita is just being herself, she's a source of major inspiration for young girls in the black community. In a country where the darker you are, the more injustice you'll likely face, she is a beacon of hope. Your natural hair, your skin color, your physique...is beautiful, just the way it is.
Gon' head Lupita. I'm a fan. :)

Kanye and Kim Kardashian's Vogue Cover Revealed.
*Update
Kanye has been obsessed with getting Kim on the cover of Vogue, and it looks like he's finally gotten his way with the April 2014 Vogue issue. As if they haven't already totally saturated the media, Kanye and Kim (and even baby North) have temporarily taken over Vogue. I mean, look at that hashtag. I'm certain this issue will sell out.
Oh, and there's a behind the scenes video too featuring little North looking just like her dad. Check it out below:

Spring Dreams.
Come Spring, I'm trying to be on her level. I love the colors, the feminine skirts and dresses, and the modern take on cat-eye glasses. I can be very tomboy-ish at times, so I 'm making an effort to wear more dresses and skirts. Pants (especially jeans) have been getting way too much attention from me. Time to refocus a bit for 2014.

Model Cara Delevinge Nabs Her First Vogue Cover.
Who else has Cara fever? *points to self* This one does. Cara Delevingne has truly emerged as fashion's favorite new "It Girl". And now she's nabbed her first Vogue cover, which is a huge accomplishment for anyone. But you know, she deserves it. That girl's been working!
2012 was her year, and she totally exploded. Runway shows, high fashion editorials,street style out the wazoo, and personality for days. Her Instagram is pretty much hilarious. And everybody loves her. I think it's because she doesn't take herself too seriously, but is undeniably gorgeous and a little odd. I like it.
The March Vogue cover was shot by Mario Testino. Cara is wearing Giorgio Armani and a PVC cap by SuperDuper. They said it..."Model of the Year." Watch out world.

Ri Ri's Vogue Cover.
Rihanna snagged the November cover of Vogue Magazine, making this her second cover of American Vogue, and her third Vogue cover overall. Rihanna is definitely one of the hardest working women doing it right now. It seems like she just released "Talk That Talk", and now, yet another album "Unapologetic."
..which is quite fitting given her recent hookup with Ex-bf Chris Brown.
She never stops going. And I am NOT mad at her grind. Plus she looks gorgeous on the cover and her eyes are hypnotizing. Alright, alright, alriiiiight.
