Lupita Nyong’o covers the July edition of US Vogue magazine

If it wasn't official before, it's official now: Lupita Nyong'o has had the best 2013-2014 EVER.  The breath taking Oscar winner is giving life to the new July '14 cover of VOGUE magazine.  And even though this is her first VOGUE cover, chick slays effortlessly.

Her sumptuous photoshoot was done in May in Marrakech, shot by Mikael Jansson.  She may have been a serious film student just over a year ago, but now, Ms. Nyong'o could teach more than a few lessons on model behavior.

With pics shot in places like a luxe spa that imitates a castle-like fort in the middle of the Palmeraie at El Fenn hotel (above she's wearing a Janis by Janis Savitt silver cuff with Prada red satin heels), chick still outshines the gorgeous scenery.

The new face of Lancôme did over 60 promotional events this past Award season, and pretty much shut down every single one becoming an IT girl of fashion.  So it's only right the fashion bible--who's still catching shade for that Kanye &Kim cover--gives her the shine she deserves.
