Kerry Washington covers Elle

Kerry Washington goes glam on the cover of Elle's June 2013 issue, and opens up on the inside pages of the magazine about her early years, her career success and fashion.
"I'm the luckiest broad in Hollywood now," she said. "To be the lead actor on "Scandal" and to be in the highest-earning [Quentin] Tarantino movie -- I don't get to ask for more."
Washington explained that she originally dreamed of becoming a clinical psychologist, and that when she was younger, she "was a kooky theater kid, silly and goofy and academic."
                                                                               

                                                                                       

                                                                          

                                                                                 

                                                                                       
The 36-year-old "Django Unchained" actress added that she also enjoys the "process" of the fashion world.
"I found out I enjoy the process. All these people show up at my house, they all have kits, someone has dresses. And it's like, let's have fun. It's not all about me. We're able to create stories on the red carpet."
 It seems her immaculate red carpet style has turned many heads in the industry, and the recognition is something she is embracing wholeheartedly.

Khloe Kardashian all over Cosmo....

Khloe Kardashian keeps the "K" in the Cosmo.....The reality star covers CosmoPolitan UK. In the magazine she talks about Kim's relationship; her struggles to conceive; and her body image issues.

 

 "I think Kanye knows how to deal with Kim really well. Because we've known him for so long, he'll come to us if he wants advice on a birthday present or something. I like that. Kris wouldn't even talk to us. I love that with Kanye we have that friendship. Because when you're with one of us you're with all of us."

 Khloe also talked about her weight issues as well: “I’ve always known that I’m not Kim and I’m not Kourtney - I’ve always been OK with that. I probably thought I was prettier before I entered the spotlight because being compared to somebody else every day does sort of beat up your spirit and 

and soul.But it's made me stronger."

Kayture....

                                                                             

As we all know there are a lot of blogs and as days go, they keep on increasing day by day....Kayture is a blog that caught my eye.This is her Bio...

 She's an18-year-old high school student Kristina Bazan of Kayture is singlehandedly making Geneva, Switzerland, the French-speaking fashion capital of the world with her je ne sais quoi. In additional to her editorial-quality outfit posts (aided by her photographer boyfriend, James), she films professional-quality makeup tutorial videos for all the fashionistas who not only admire her whimsically chic ensembles, but also envy her flawless porcelain skin, smoky eyes, and bold lipcolors.

 

                                                                                     
This was how She came up with the name:

"Kayture, a mix of ''Kay'' my nickname and ''couture'' because obviously this blog was going to focus on fashion, was from the beginning a personal urge to share a content with people who have the same interests as I do. Fashion isn't a necessity, it is a game and the most interesting part about it is that rules are changing everyday. I created the blog in 2011, and due to a lot of passion and motivation my team and I worked to create the best inspirational content possible. As a swiss based concept, our main focus is quality in quantity. With polished/editorial inspired pictures, an elegant layout and regular updates, Kayture scored after a couple of months some prestigious collaborations with luxury brands as well as the chance to travel around the world for projects and events.

With a dedicated team we work to create and organise the blog, always come up with new ideas and concepts. It is all about making my readers travel with me, making them discover new brands, new products or even new places to visit. Kayture is the window of my lifestyle and a love story since almost two years."
