To say that Oscar-winning actress, highly coveted fashion icon, and #BlackGirlMagic champion Lupita Nyong'o simply shines on the cover of Vogue's October issue is a gross, almost offensive understatement. I mean...
JUST ✨ LOOK ✨
AT ✨ HER ✨.
The Kenyan star's cover look consists of a gilded Valentino Haute Couture dress, embellished with gemstones and tiny cutouts.
But obviously, her skin puts all those things to shame in the glow department. As the author of the Vogue profile on her noted, "Her skin gleams with health."
True.
Nyong'o shared her excitement on Instagram this morning.
Now, let us all go forth and bask in this cover girl magic.
