📍Khartoum, SUDAN

SPENT A MONTH IN THE MOTHER LAND.

SUDAN is a beautiful country and with beautiful people. I’m originally from South Sudan, but unfortunately I never got the chance to visit due to it’s war-torn circumstances.

The capital I visited in Sudan does have a huge wealth and poverty gap, swell as a huge colorism issue, to wear its super common for woman to use skin-lighting creams. They have a long way to go in order to catch up to the current times (no sewage systems, some of my relatives don’t even have toilets).

Dough Eyes

SAINT LAURENT (PREFALL 2013- COLLECTION III)

 

That effortless look and those dough eyes. This Saint Laurent (PreFall 2013) spread featuring Sky Ferreria is just uber cool- starting from the clothes to the makeup. The collection may be out of my price range but it doesn’t hurt to look at.

(BTW check out this girl’s single “You’re Not The One” – Sky Ferreira) – your welcome

“Summer’s Coolest Couple” Glamour U.K.(June 2013)

 This is one of the coolest/sweetest editoral’s I’ve seen for summer. The theme is very fresh. I came across the Glamour U.K. issue while in Barnes N’oble, then those pages caught my eye (maybe the hot brit actor did – Harry Tredaway) but all in all the monochrome spread is just on point … (right?)
