PERSON OF INTEREST: IMKHIThA MANI

Hey beautiful people, I hope you are all well and surviving this tough yet beautiful journey called life. I have decided to add a new feature to the blog that will be titled, 'Person of Interest'. This feature is dedicated to individuals who are paving their own way and making a name for themselves in their respective careers.

One of the many images that she has styled

Our inaugural person interest is the talented Imkhitha Mani. The reason why we are profiling is because she is currently a radio disk jockey at In4Radio, a fashion stylist and she has great style to top it all off. She credits her love of fashion and her entry into fashion styling to her mother as she was a designer. She states that " I was always around fabric and I saw how she was a visionary in changing spaces so I gravitated towards the fashion but on a conceptualizing aspect , hence styling" when she describes how her mother introduced fashion to her.

She is a genius behind the mic

When it comes to the challenges that come with being a stylist, she states that the fashion styling industry in Port Elizabeth is very small. She then goes on to describe the style of Port Elizabeth residents, as that they are "very stylish but they are not trend setters and that the bay fashion scene is very relaxed". As a stylist Imkhitha has worked with a large number of notable Port Elizabeth - based brands from Feelings of the Red Heart, Tsoofi. She has also added working with creative and popular disk jockey Sam Jennings on a 90's themed photo shoot for the one year anniversary of the Sam Jam sessions.

Her take on styling the white tee

The future is very bright for Imkhitha as she is currently working with variety of designers regarding collaborations for an emerging clothing line. We can also expect a t-shirt line towards the end of the year. It seems the future is very bright for this fashionista.

The 'revolt' against Beyonce

It is no secret that the release of a Beyonce album whether it is pre-announced or a surprise drop is bound to get the masses talking.The water-cooler talk can be both positive or negative. This is seemingly the case with the upcoming release of the second act, Cowboy Carter in the three act Renaissance series that Beyonce has gifted us with. The alternative album cover. Image via X @ColumbiaRecords The Cowboy Carter album sees the reigning queen of music exploring a genre which is not new within her discography and that is country music. This innovative move has sparked praise and criticism alike. The argument brought forward by the critics, most recently Azealia Banks, who is known for her very outspoken opinion, is that Beyonce is using 'victim mentality' to promote the album and to enter a market that will never embrace her. It can be said that her foray into country music has not been greatly welcomed by the listeners of the genre. This resulted
