Clad in designer outfits and/or her own alternative stylings, Biko rubs shoulders with celebrities, world-famous designers and models at parties, events, catwalk shows, or wherever the cool people go. This girl makes socializing (and blogging about it later) an actual career. She appears to live the glamourous, over-the-top lifestyle the fashion industry has been trying to convince us for so long actually exists.

(Side Note: I lived in Toronto for 8 years and never experienced the glamour that is Biko’s average Thursday night). Articulate, funny, astute, ridiculous at times, immensely creative, and totally inspirational, visit the blog and discover how a schoolboy from Kenya made it as a superstar fashion diva in North America.

Beauttah, a Kenyan-born transgendered model, is always one of our favourites. Sure, she might sling a muppet fur over her arm, but we’re more into the flashy dress full of colour, perfect coif and attitude-filled stare. (Image: Erin Simkin)
