Kinfolk Issue Sixteen: Rwandan-born model Nadja Giramata
What a nice surprise to see that Kinfolk Volume 16 shines a light on the beautiful Nadja Giramata. I learned of the issue on Instagram.
I bought an earlier issue of Kinfolk a few years ago and have enjoyed their short films over the years. I love the magazine’s focus on slow living and gatherings with family and friends.
But it always bothered me that I never saw any people that look like me. After a while, if a publication never includes people of color, I assume that they don’t intend it for me and don’t want me buying it. I feel the same way about commercials that I see on television.
So it was quite nice to see a lovely model of color gracing Kinfolk‘s current cover. You can purchase Kinfolk on their website or on Amazon at a discount. Which I just just did. I also signed up for a free trial of Amazon Prime, so I get free shipping and it should arrive tomorrow. Can’t wait!

100 Years of Beauty
This video shows decade by decade, hair and makeup from 1910 to 2010. Such a range of different types of beauty! Have you had any of these styles?
Cut, the makers of the video, also did a side by side comparison with a white model, showing the differences and similarities in styles. Pretty cool!
