LONDON - WE AIN'T HOS

Online fashion magazine

WAH

is unlike a lot of other style mags, websites, and blogs out there: it isn't a piss-poor, supposedly arty take on

Vogue

with morning-after depression issues. According to the editor, 24-year-old

Sharmadean Reid

,

WAH

is a sort of fashion guide for girls who love "hip hop, getting our nails done, comics, colored gemstones, grimey clubs, Ralph Lauren, gold, LA, high heels, riot grrls, 1993/1983/1953, whining and grinding, vintage American sportswear, Versace, punk, sneakers, pink and yellow, Moschino, Jeff Koons, London, bodycon, shiny stuff and girl power."

Vice: Why WAH?

Sharmadean: Originally it was a joke. People say "Wahgwan" to each other–well, old Jamaican people do. It also stands for "We Ain't Hos," which we ain't, by the way.

Street or high-end?

We're opening a WAH nail salon. I'm currently obsessed with that bright shade of green that the Comme des Garçons wallets come in and I can't decide if I love or hate Lady Gaga.

Nice.
