Can we talk?

When Vogue and the Metropolitan Museum announced this year’s Met Gala theme, “Camp: Notes on Fashion”, no one seems to be truly understand it. Anna Wintour herself agreed on the confusion it might have caused on her interview with Jenna Bush Hager at Good Morning America “People thought right away about hiking boots”, and no, it has nothing to do about getting down and dirty in the wilderness.

This month, the fashion industry graced us with its newest trailblazers. Fierce trailblazers. Halima Aden has already made headlines as the first hijabi woman to participate in an American beauty pageant at Miss Minessota competition. This time, the gorgeous Somali American was featured in CR Fashion Book's 10th Issue, and got one of the covers! My first reaction was YAAAAAAS girl WORK that hijab! In a time when many were stranded in American airports due to their nationality
