No 'Vogue' for Africa

African photographer Mario Epanya's proposition of an African edition of Vogue has been rejected by publishing house, Condé Nast.

Epanya, who created fictitional covers and editorials for his campaign, posted on his Facebook page: "DEAR ALL. The Wait is over. Condé Nast said NO to an African license of VOGUE. So this is the last cover. Enjoy, but it's a beginning of something."

African-American lifestyle site Madame Noirewrites: "Obviously, Vogue can still get away with a few editorials featuring Africans and African Americans sprinkled here and there. Although their "Black Issue" flew off the magazine racks in 2008, are you really surprised that Conde Nast rejected the idea?"

Some of those commenting on the story have called on Africans to boycott the other 18 international Vogue editions and opt for local magazines, such as Arise, instead.

Brace yourselves. The good, the bad and the ugly from the Met Ball 2010.

Hermio... I mean, Emma Watson definitely tops my best dressed list from the Met Ball 2010.
Seeing as it was overseen by American Vogue and the 'Almighty Fashion Empress Anna Wintour' I thought the fashion stakes would be higher but it was actually surprisingly blah.
The celebs either wore outfits that were plain old boring (see Claire Danes) or just outright strange (see Katy Perry. Scroll down to the bottom, NOW)
Apart from the stunning Ms Watson though, who wore Burberry (seriously what else would she wear? She was even escorted by Christopher Bailey) for the most glamorous night of the year. Lookin' good Emma:
Check out the good, the bad and the ugly on the British Vogue gallery here, or alternatively the Go Fug Yourself website for fabulously catty yet witty reviews of each look.

I think we can agree that Katy Perry's neon light up dress is firmly in the "bad" category, yes?

ps) A quick update; I had my French Speaking exam today and got an A :D
Woop woop. Now I am 1 exam down with 16 to go... Wish me luck for the rest!

Happy Easter Sunday Everyone :)

I am very happy right now eating chocolate eggs for breakfast, listening to Paulo Nutini on the radio and after I've watched Gossip Girl I'm going to go and visit my grandparents. Lovely day :)
What are you up to?

Latest Style Obsession: Plaits

There are many reasons why I am currently in love with braids. Its mainly the fact that you can wear them in so many different ways and that each style looks fresh, feminine and oh so effortless.
I will let the photos do the talking though: Kate in her super cute plaits and daisy chains

We Heart It (I am addicted to this sight. Especially now they have sorted themselves out and improved the layout!)

Another We Heart It find

The beautiful Chloe Sevigny, love her bohemian style plaits.

We Heart It once again- If anyone knows the original sources though let me know!

A brilliant illustration from the artist Elisabeth Moch

Fashion Toast's simple yet cool plait

Braid beauty special in Bogue Taiwan, this hair do is awesome!

And of course they were also seen on the runways- Luella AW 09 had Pippi Longstocking style hyper plaits

Whereas Alexander Wang's spring summer 2010 ready to wear had loose, relaxed and breezy braids
The lovely Karlie Kloss backstage at A Wang.

I hope you have found these images as inspiring as I do...
