Scouted at the age of 15, iconic runway diva Naomi Campbell has established herself as the most recognizable and in-demand model of our  time.  We can now get a glimpse into her fabulous life by tuning in to The Face on the Oxygen network (@TheFaceOnOxygen).

“The Face,” hosted by photographer Nigel Barker, features supermodel coaches Naomi Campbell, Karolina Kurkova and Coco Rocha as they compete to find the face of ULTA Beauty, one of the fastest growing beauty retailers in the United States.  The series will give viewers access inside the world of the industry as three teams of aspiring models, each led by one of the supermodel coaches, are guided through real life assignments, including photo shoots and commercials. 

But the best part of the new series is all the promotional work she has been doing. The very private Miss Campbell has been tweeting, @NaomiCampbell, some candid footage on her twitter and pheed accounts.  Including some footage of her earliest television appearances. View her fierce-ness in our gallery below!!

Where is Rihanna when you need her? If you had the chance to view the vapid-ness that was the American Music Awards 2012 red carpet last night you were surely as disappointed and uninspired as I was.  I’m not sure if it’s the stylist or the designers that need an intervention but whatever the case we managed to put together some photos of the “best” looks of the night.  What do you think?

Wearing Loin Cloth & Ashes shorts, a Tart top and Pichulik rope bracelets Solange Knowles eclectic style is featured on the new cover of ELLE South Africa.

“She walked in dressed in a tangerine blazer, fuchsia wide-leg pants and bright lips. She was warm, open and friendly. After a meeting with Jackie, she quickly selected the pieces she loved the most. My highlight was Solange picking out and putting on the Loin Cloth & Ashes shorts, Tart top and Pichulik rope bracelets. As soon as she emerged from the changing room, I thought: ‘That’s the cover outfit.’ “ -Asanda Sizani, Fashion Editor ELLE South Africa
