Shala Monroque for VOGUE Japan/January 2012

I've been waiting for this editorial ever since I found out about and I must say photographer Tommy Ton captured the beautiful Shala Monroque in the natural beauty that surrounds her homeland, St. Lucia for her editorial titled, Island in the Sun. Stylist Aurora Sansone completed each look with just the right amount of assesories and styling to keep the editorial elegant and simply chic. Shala has an impeccable sense of style that borders on simplicity and luxury without coming off contrived and this editorial speaks volumes. Absolutely stunning!

This is another one of my favorites from fashion photo-blogger, Tommy Ton of JakandJil fame. Over the months Tommy has captured some of the most stylish women on the planet. Check out this beautiful Afrolista below as she braces against the cold while those beautiful coils dance in the wind. Beautiful!
