for those of you who are regular readers of The Online Edition, you will know that i am a huge fan of wikipedia. in fact, if i could spare the time, i would sent hours reading the website, page after page. however for this week, there is a new favourite website that has helped my writing and inspired me a fair bit. that will be the various forbes lists. so forbes released their list of most powerful women for 2012, only six on the list have direct co-relations with the fashion industry. i will be featuring five of the six. you'll have to wait till tonight for the sixth fashion-related person on the forbes 100 most powerful women list.
