Teen Vogue Takes a Gamble on Scandal-Prone Justin Bieber-Will It Work?

by

Well, this is awkward timing.

Smack dab in the middle of a controversial, roller coaster month for Justin Bieber–in, which, among other things, he bought a monkey, got accused of assault, threatened to ‘fuck up’ a paparazzo, wore a gas mask shopping, cancelled a show, lost said monkey, and never, ever wore a shirt (okay, maybe once)–comes news of a far more wholesome variety: Teen Vogue has announced the troubled singer as the cover star of its May Music Issue, WWD is reporting.

Meet Carlos Bell, Star of Tonight’s Episode of The Job with Joanna Coles–and Hear His Inspiring Tale of Fashion Hustle

by

We have a confession to make: We are on tonight’s episode of The Job, a new CBS reality show hosted by Lisa Ling (my journalism crush). It’s our reality TV debut!

The premise of the show is this: five candidates compete for the same job and jump through a bunch of hoops to try to get hired. The sought-after job on tonight’s episode is an editorial assistant position at Joanna Coles’s Cosmo. We are one of three “guest companies” (along with Who What Wear and Archetype Me) that can try to poach one of the candidates. You’re going to just have to watch to see how it all pans out.

But we wanted to introduce you to one of the candidates, 25-year-old Carlos Bell. His story is so inspiring, his fashion hustle so great, we just had to share. Read on to find out how he landed his first internship at GQ (and commuted 10 hours a day to get there) and what he’s up to next.

We’ve culled the most interesting features, hilarious quotes and important bits of news you might otherwise miss from the fashion glossies–many of which aren’t available online.

10 Lessons I Learned at Teen Vogue‘s Fashion University That Will Help You Land Your Dream Job

by

This Saturday, I found myself among the hordes of well-dressed 16-24 year-olds at Teen Vogue‘s annual Fashion University event in Midtown Manhattan, where industry VIPS like as Grace Coddington, BryanBoy, Amy Astley and more, dropped their infinite fashion knowledge on us.

Competition for seats was fierce. Girls and boys from all over the world rushed and crushed into seats like their careers depended on it. And after everything I learned this weekend, maybe our careers did depend on it.

From working a part-time job at Starbucks, to online etiquette, to taking the time to enjoy just being a kid, here are the top 10 lessons I learned about how to land my fashion dream job.
