It's a proud moment for any youngster to battle their way onto the property ladder. You may have a two bed terrace with rising damp and slight subsidence but it's finally your own little nest. And plucky Kendall Jenner has now pulled herself up by the boot straps and got her own little pad (her second, actually), after saving up a reported £4.8m ($6.5m). And as far as damp, it has its own private swimming pool. According to TMZ, the model bought the pad from John Krasinski and Emily Blunt and it's situated in Hollywood, naturally. The 20-year-old model splashed out on the stunning property, which features six bedrooms and five bathrooms. And this is actually Kendall's second property after she bought a two-bedroom condo in 2014 for $1.39 million. According to TMZ, the younger sister of Kim Kardashian paid $450,000 below the original asking price for the 4,800-square-foot contemporary-style home. It is situated on the Sunset Strip, above the Chateau Marmont Hotel and has panoramic views. With wood floors, exposed brick and walk-in wardrobes Kendall doesn't even need to spend all weekend shopping for wallpaper and building Ikea cupboards. http://www.mirror.co.uk/

Madonna lands Harper’s Bazaar Us Magazine’s 150th anniversary special. On the Cover Madonna wears a Gucci gown; Madonna's own snake bracelet; Bulgari bracelet; Tiffany & Co. bracelet; Fallon ring; Loree Rodkin ring (on pinky finger); Lynn Ban ring (on index finger). She is photographed by Luigi & Iango.  She speaks to Roxane Gay about issues ranging from politics to what motivates her. Here is an excert from the Interview with the pop icon
Roxane Gay: As an artist, whether it's in film or music or writing, do you think your work is political?
Madonna: Completely.
Roxane Gay: How so?
Madonna: Because I'm political. I believe in freedom of expression, I don't believe in censorship. I believe in equal rights for all people. And I believe women should own their sexuality and sexual expression. I don't believe there's a certain age where you can't say and feel and be who you want to be. All you have to do is look at my career—from my Sex book to the songs I've written, kissing a black saint in my "Like a Prayer" video, the themes I explored on my Erotica album. As I get older and I get better at writing and expressing myself, then you get into my American Life era, and I start talking about politics and government and how fucked our country's politics are, and the illusion of fame and Hollywood and the beautiful people.

Deddeh Howard, a Liberia-born, L.A.-based model and blogger, was fed up with seeing fashion campaigns feature so few models of color. So, with the help of her photographer boyfriend Raffael Dickreuter, she re-created major campaigns from brands like Chanel and Gucci fronted by Gisele Bündchen, Gigi Hadid, Kate Moss, and more. She took three months to put it together, making sure photos would look as close to identical as possible from the clothes and accessories to the poses and expressions on her face.
Howard, 27, titled the project Black Mirror and launched it on her blog Tuesday with a call for more inclusivity in the fashion industry. "In a time where Black people too often are in the media for being underrepresented at important events such as the Oscars or make headlines for being targeted by the police I felt it was time to do something positive and inspiring about my race," she writes. "I'm personally fighting for more diversity."

Skirts and Sweaters go so well that you can never miss the many different ways that you can wear the match up. Whether is it a short Skirt, a Midi Skirt, a High Waist Skirt, a Pencil Skirt, Leather Skirt, Plaid Skirt or even a Prints Skirt, you can easily pair with Sweaters to suit the occasion, season and even the current mood that you are in.

When they said raid you boyfriend's closet, who knew you could come out of it with fashion items that actually work for you? For a long time nobody ever thought that Timberland Boots would actually be worn by women? Most guys would always say that the Boots are too heavy for the fragile little girl to wear, alas! How wrong could they be, in fact I think we ladies rock them better than them. Timberland Boots are a great way of bringing out the Tomboy in you without really loosing your femininity, or if you just want to rock the androgynous look to counter your girly outfit. To really show them off, wear with Skinny Jeans or just normal jeans and roll them up so that the Timberland Boots can really stand out. When it comes to Jeans you can wear your Timberland Boots with Boyfriend Jeans, Destroyed/Distressed Jeans, Dark or Light Jeans and even Skinny Jeans. You can also rock your Timberland Boots with Shorts, or even a skirt. There are no rules when wearing the Timberland Boots as a woman just wear however your mood feels like and elevate the look with accessories to match. Who said ladies cannot handle Timberland Boots, below are the reasons why ladies rock them better.
