Winter Wonderland

Wish I could look this awesome while trekking through the winter snow.

Instead I'm trying not to trip over my own boot cladded feet while balancing my hot cocoa and my purse. Ah, well.

What Is Gravity?

Not that this editorial defies it, but gravity is hard to mess with. Basically, this chick knows how to model. I love the idea of having editorials flipped, flopped, freaking fropped. Wait, what?
If you need me, I'll be at yoga.

Blondes Have More Fun

I'll admit it, I'm totally psyched to see Kate Hudson back on her grind. She looks flawless on the October cover of Harper's Bazaar.

Just Keep Swimming

The line between art and fashion is becoming smaller and smaller as time passes and I can't say I hate it. Fashion is art, especially when you're looking at Haute Couture and the like.
I remember watching an old episode from season who knows of America's Next Top Model wherein each model had to do her thing under water and it did not look easy, so I especially adore this set of photos taken by Ilse Moore to showcase South African designer Joel Janse Van Vurren's Spring/Summer collection.
Art or fashion? Or both?

Hello Katy

Taking a break from packing for school (shhh!) to post this fab editorial of pop singer Katy Perry in some seriously gorgeous photos for the September issue of L'Officiel Paris.
How much do you love Katy with red hair? So totally Grace-Coddington-chic.

What's Your Story?

André Leon Talley shares his "Vogue story:"

When I was in high school, I made wallpaper from the fashion pages of Vogue for the Schiap-pink room I kept in my grandmother's house. In the early sixties, Vogue came out twice a month. I was so naive, I didn't think I could subscribe to the magazine, but in any case, every other Sunday after church, I enjoyed walking to the newsstand on the Duke University campus with my allowance to buy it. I would come home, tear out my favorite images, and pin-tack them to the walls. This was not my bedroom but a sanctuary, with a beautiful mahogany desk and modern sofa, that my grandmother had created for me—a place where I could read, listen to records, and escape to my own world. That world was papered with images from Vogue.   One Sunday, on my way to East Campus, a group of white male students sped by, throwing rocks at me from the car. I kept walking—and it never stopped me from taking that walk to buyVogue twice a month.

Everyone has his or her own story... You know, the story of how they figured out fashion was their biggest passion and went along to pursue it in some way. So, tell me: what's yours?

Miss Kloss

Love this outtake of Karlie from Vogue UK's May issue.
How did I not see this sooner? I don't think she'll ever not be my favorite model.

Organize Your Shit

If you're a truly obsessed wanna be fashionista, you've surely got magazines piled by the dozens around your bedroom or apartment. Well, people, it's time to get your shit together. Seriously, keep your favorite magazines together in organized ways.
Much prettier than stacks on the floor, no?

Best In Sale

Oh, HauteLook, if only I had all the money in the world. I would buy all of these babies and more. These are just my absolute musts that you all should buy as my job doesn't pay nearly enough money to purchase anything other than gas for my car. So promise me you'll buy these? Okay, glad we're clear on that.

Punk Rock Barbie

Gwen's still got it. "It," you know? Spunk.
These two photos of Gwen Stefani are my favorite out of the bunch taken for Harper's Bazaar. Still so lady-like yet edgy. Still so fun.
