BEYONCE's BLACK FACE photoshoot...OFFENSIVE OR NOT?

Beyoncé has been catching alot of slack for her controversial shoot in French fashion magazine L’Officiel Paris.

This is the magazines 90th-anniversary issue, which B does a tribute to African culture, donning head wraps and gorgeous gowns. But its one picture in particular that seems to have made a uproar. Beyoncé wears dark face paint, transforming her fair-skinned complexion to a dark brown one.

The magazine stated that:
"The designs are all reflective of the African influence on fashion this season," the magazine says in a statement. "As for the artistic make-up, the inspiration came from several African rituals during which paint is used on the face. We find the images beautiful and inspiring."


We think that it was a true statement of artistry and creativity but we want to know what you think?

Here’s a behind the scenes look at the shoot.

LACE NAIL ART DESIGNS

I am dying to try this trend out. This is an up-and-coming nail trend inspired by some of the greatest fashion shows. Lace nail art designs are a statement of romance with its pretty and feminine patterns that crown the appearance of both fashionistas as well as celebrities.

THE BECKHAM's EXPECTING FOURTH!

David and Victoria Beckham are expecting their fourth child in the summer. The couple's three sons, Brooklyn, 11, Romeo, eight, and Cruz, five, were said to be 'very excited' at the prospect of a new brother or sister.
The Beckhams married in 1999 and live in LA where David plays for LA Galaxy, although there have been suggestions they could soon spend more time in the UK.

We can't say that this pregnancy comes as a surprise. Last year, Victoria left open the prospect of more children when she said: ‘I think one day, if we’re blessed to have more children, it would be amazing.

We want to congratulate the family for their expecting bundle of joy and cant wait to see if it will be a FASHIONISTA or FASHIONISTO!

Victoria Beckham's FALL/WINTER 2011-2012

Victoria Beckham’s Fall/ Winter 2011/ 2012 collection is nonetheless amazing as we should imagine. The collection featured the designer’s signature form-fitting dresses with colors of magenta, vermillion, and saffron. Surprisingly there were many dresses of looser shapes and a number of interesting coats which was very untypical.


The designs were very straight lined, elegant and luxurious. Victorias designs are very wearable and fashion forward. Which is expected from this FASHIONISTA!
