Makeup As Mask?

Dearest Fashionista Readers,

I’m a 16 year old fashion and beauty maniac who works at a teen newspaper in Atlanta You can check it out here at VoxRox.org. Our latest issue deals with “Masks and Identity” and I found myself asking, if by dressing up, are we really just covering up?

I’m certainly no beauty expert, but I do love to sit and apply colors and powders of all sorts to my face, but lately, I’ve had to ask myself, am I covering up more than a blemish? Basically, is makeup just a mask?

I’d love to hear your opinions on this.

Thanks!

Needing a Fashion Thesaurus

fashion is in fashionista.jpg Hi Fashionphiles,

I’ve been trying to think of catchy (not corny) ways to say ‘fashion’ without actually saying it.
I’m on my school’s newspaper and I work at a teens-only newspaper in Atlanta, and when I write fashion-themed articles, I worry the words get repetitive.

Any helpful phrases?

Thanks!

Hallway To Runway

school uniforms.jpg I just started my sophomore year of high school last week and it’s really hard to be chic with the super stiff dress code my school insists on making us follow.

Unfortunately, it’s not quite Gossip Girl, I can’t accessorize my plaid mini with thigh highs and patent heels. But does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can spice up my basic dress code?

I don’t want to be stuck wearing skinny jeans and polo shirt all year.

Please help!

Thanks!

i'm really happy for her, she's awesome. I'm just worried that if she goes mainstream, like guest 1 said, she might start to fade from high fashion.

can't wait for House of Style

i do think its okay to use modeling as a window into the industry. With the exclusion of Kira Plastinina, it's very hard for girls to get in the industry young enough (teen-age) and experience a lot of it otherwise.

My goodness, I'm so tired of this. I'm 16 and if I don't want to see Miley on the cover, who does? I just finished reading the megan fox issue and i'm still recovering from stomach flu, I prefer the blake lively on vogue rather than this miley thing. Could it be any more cheesy?
