Chanel Iman flare 2010
Chanel Iman on the cover of FLARE October 2010, Photography by Max Abadain. Chanel is simply adorable but sometimes I think she looks the same in every editorial, she needs to switch it up a little.
Burberry Prorsum fall 2010
Seeing that cover made me remember the Burberry Prorsum fall 2010 collection (can you tell I am obsessed with it, for me it was the best collection last season) that shade of plum on the jacket and the dress is remarkable and I would kill for the shearling lined boots.
Vogue Australia October 2010
I also like this Vogue Australia October 2010 cover featuring Codie Young, the photography was done by Nicole Bentley. I adore the lipstick shes wearing I own one that looks just like it.
MiuMiu
The pretty dress shes wearing made me remember the Miu Miu fall 2010 collection, which was very feminine and chic. Im uber excited about NYFW it started today *wide grin* and I cant wait to see all the beautiful collections.

Reinventing le mode

It really bothers me when people say things like that concept isn’t new when reviewing a designers collection. The truth is unless its totally out of date like a shoulder padded, puff sleeved floral print skirt suit (all in one), a skirt would never make a great blouse, and a t shirt wouldn’t make a nice pair of shorts. My point is the concept when its comes to silhouette will always be the similar and its up to the designer to personalize and interpret these basic ideas in their own way. So people shouldn’t be so quick to judge designers, it only results in producing all those "designers" with an identity crisis talking about the kind of avant-garde you shouldn’t wear to sleep. No vision, no target market, just designing so people can say they are inventing something totally new. That being said I hope your all having a great day! *wide grin*.

Beauty Phenomenal

Thula 1
Thula 2
Thula 3
Thula 4
Thula 5
So I stumbled on this editorial called "black beauty" and I thought to my self this girl doesn't look familiar but wow what a strikingly beautiful face. Being the model stalker that I am I did some research on her and it turns out shes currently signed with Diva Models and she is originally from Cape Town in South Africa but moved to Denmark to pursue her modeling career (according to her model mayhem profile).

Moving on, anybody who knows me well enough will know I am a big makeup junkie so this editorial featuring Thula Neka put a wide grin on my face. The photography was done by Isa Jacob, outstanding Hair and Makeup by Zenia Jaeger and styling by My Ringsted. 

Perfect for Russia

nataliacover
 Another September issue cover I love, the beautiful Natalia Vodianova for Vogue Russia September 2010. Her skin and those earrings put together make perfection at its best. The photography once again was done by the talented duo Mert and Marcus. They also did the covers for Love magazine's fall 2010 issue.

Paris Dans Les Yeux

marioncover
Marion Cotillard looking extra rad on the cover of Vogue Paris September 2010, photography by Mert and Marcus. Marion looks beyond amazing, plus the makeup is impeccable. Looks like the bleached brows and dark lipstick trend is here to stay, well I am not complaining, it creates a perfect feel for fall. Now the only problem is how do I get my hands on a copy? I live in Canada and lets just say most distributors here seem to have an interest in American Vogue alone (can't find Vogue Italia or Vogue Paris sadly....sigh).
