Kenyans are making boss moves. One Kenyan in particular is Vanessa Kingori. She has been confirmed as the new British Vogue Publishing Director.

In an Instagram post, Vanessa quotes E.B. White, an American writer. He was a contributor to The New Yorker magazine and a co-author of the English language style guide The Elements of Style, which is commonly known as "Strunk & White".

"I wake up every morning determined to both change the world and have one hell of a good time."

Well, she will be one of the worlds most influential personalities.

Vanessa Kingori will succeed Stephen Quinn, who is retiring after a 26-year tenure, on December 22.

She was previously publisher at GQ Style and British GQ, where she oversaw the highest total annual revenue for the brand in the last decade. She was also the first female publisher during the title’s 30-year history.

"Let's get to it, strike a pose, there's nothing to it....#VOGUE," Vanesa wrote on Instagram, "New beginnings. New Era."

Here are photos of the boss lady who will be shaping the fashion and entertainment trends...
