And this, my daahlings, is why I love fashion so much! The simple and oh – so – stunningly beautiful sight of Liya Kebede on a fashion magazine cover brightens up my day! Liya Kebede doing Harper’s Bazaar Spain May 2012. The styling is as effective as it is minimal, Liya’s natural beauty doing its [...]

Liya Kebede is one of my favorite models. The 34yo Ethiopian beauty has gone from the pretty face status to activism and even fashion design – she’s fighting for the maternal health issues and for a better Ethiopian future through her ethical Lemlem fashion label. Model, activist, designer, mother (of two), wife and, more recently, [...]

I’m puzzled! I though we already talked about Bottega Veneta’s ad campaign and who was representing for the Spring Summer 2012 advertorial season. To my surprise, I found out that Liya Kebede is also doing the maison’s campaign for the next season. I may not entirely like the pose or the picture’s angle, but I [...]

And another model on film! This time it’s a veteran edition as Liya Kebede was involved in more than just one movie project. Black Gold is a star studded production that will debut at the Tribeca FF, October 25. In the movie, Liya plays a slave girl by the name of Aicha. I do not [...]

So many models out there trying to make a perfectly happy transition from modeling to something else. Music, television, movies. How many really succeed in making a name, a career outside the fashion magazines, catwalks, ad campaigns? I’m hoping Liya Kebede could be one of those lucky gorgeous women who can be more than just [...]

Now that the Emmys are out of the way, aren’t you looking forward for the next pretext to release your inner fashionista? I am. I was, actually. Until I saw this PSA. Meant to draw attention and crowds to the Fashion’s Night Out, the 2010 edition (September 10), the video only raised my eyebrows. High, [...]

One is enough to make a gorgeous cover, let alone all three goddesses together! Naomi Campbell, Iman, Liya Kebede together on the cover of Essence Magazine, the 40th anniversary issue, September 2010. Does it get any better than this? (yes, I know, there’s airbrushing, but still, we can see still the beauty within) All that [...]
