Pride Is A Deadly Sin, Isn’t It

7 February 2009 • Kimberly • Leave a Comment

EDIT: Dujour is for sale online through it’s website! Buy it here, darlings!

The excitement and pride I feel inside is indeed threatening to burst soon. I’ve been published! I believe I mentioned this a while back, perhaps in a TiLT list months ago. So here’s to my first published article, for the ever fabulous, ever edgy Dujour Magazine. And no, I am not just saying that simply because I work for them.

Do visit the site, read away, and purchase the newest issue here! I have only seen scans of the issue, since I have not yet gotten my hands on the print copy, but from what I could see, it is one beautiful compilation of articles and editorials. Two of my articles have been published; one on a rising brand, REBEL DNCE, and the other, a full length feature article on the Little Black Dress. Letitia was kind enough to send me the scans of the latter article, so please do enjoy it!

[click here to buy!]

xoxo,

La C.

P.S.: If you need a bit more encouragement in buying the issue, let me leave you with this: You’ll be able to see the ever mysterious La C., in photo, in the masthead! (Hint: I am the intern!) =]

P.P.S.: If you so choose to buy a copy, you get a special discount ($7 off!) in the next 48 hours! No code is needed, darlings, it’s already there! Do take advantage of it now =]
