Mag Love: ARISE Magazine

There is a new magazine that I just cannot get enough of. ARISE, Africa's Global Style & Culture Magazine, is an unabashed look at fashion, music and culture from Africa that is shaping and adding to today's contemporary culture. "ARISE communicates the landmark success that Africans, and people of African descent, have achieved in fields as varied as music, fashion, business, and politics," says Nduka Obaigbena, Editor-in-Chief.

An amazing contribution to global style that continues to have an impact on contemporary fashion and decor, this large-format glossy has featured Alex Wek, Liya Kebede, Iman, and Nnenna Agba from America's Next Top Model.

The result, a truly beautiful publication full of some of the most inspiring articles on African culture, art, and politics I have ever seen. An absolute must-read, check out ARISE right here.

  2. I bought a copy when I was last in London and am treasuring it. Hope it survives. I subscribed to Cosmopolitan Woman out of the UK a few years ago, which also had tons of promise. But sadly it folded.
