Beyonce Appears in Vogue Italia
Beyonce continues her publicity blitz for her Album ’4,‘ this time posing for Vogue Italia:
Stylist Rushka Bergman outfitted King B in Tom Ford and fur:
I could have sworn Beyonce was sporting a faux baby bump (similar to this) in the first picture, but at second glance, I realized it was actually her hip and a bit of a strange angle. It’s an interesting optical illusion, as it seems many people would love to see Bey with child.
At any rate, what do you think of the shoot?

You Should Know: Robot & Brucling
There are some new cool kids on the block!
Often referred to as the “Bowtie Boys,” the guys of Robot & Brucling fashion custom made bow ties peppered with embellishments, studs, sparkles, jewels, and chains.
The duo (who simply go by their nicknames Robot & Brucling) had careers at Nordstrom, Ralph Lauren, Valentino, in fashion advertising, and styling before joining forces in 2009. In March 2010 they launched their website www.robotandbrucling.com and quickly flew onto the radar of stars like Beyonce, who rocked one of their sparkly creations to perform on Oprah’s farewell show (which we wrote about here).
Describing their aesthetic as, “rock chic, a brand of classic emotion with a touch of rock for young men and women who live a sophisticated, glamorous lifestyle with edge,” the two are definitely ones to watch.

On the Huffington Post: Howard University Students are the 2nd Best Dressed Undergrads in the Nation
Seems there’s no rolling to class in pajamas and Uggs for Howard University undergrads!
According to a Huffington Post article on the Best Dressed Colleges, Howard students rank #2 after New York University:
Citing Women’s Wear Daily, the article says, “Students dress to convey “an air of confidence, a sense of where they’re going” — thanks to bright pink blazers, bold animal prints, vintage blouses and slim-cut letterman jackets.”
Other schools on the list included Florida State University (#3), Parsons the New School of Design (#4), University of Southern California (#5), and the University of Arizona (#6).
Not surprisingly my alma mater didn’t make the list. We would probably rank as worst dressed. Ha.

Model Newcomer Nyasha Matonhodze Covers Love Magazine’s Fall/Winter 2011 Issue
16-year-old Zimbawean model Nyasha Matonhodze burst onto the scene with a prime spot in Louis Vuitton’s luxury laced Fall 2011 ad campaign, and spreads in Harper’s Bazaar, Teen Vogue, and V magazine. The young stunner continues her winning streak with a Fall 2011 cover of UK based Love Magazine:
She looks mournful with a gaggle of crows on her head, beneath the headline, “The Mood of Fashion to Come Autumn Winter 2011.” I’m guessing fashion will be very sad.Nyasha did a great interview with New York Magazine about how she got started in the industry. Read it here.
