Vlada Roslyakova for Elle Russia




Vlada Roslyakova's fan got a new found reason to be cheer about, She has a new cover. Its really rare to see Vlada gracing a cover, but this year she has had 3 and an increase of editorial, that means that she is getting more print job for us to see. Her new cover is ELLE Russia, they are two covers. One I'm guessing is the stand cover and the other one the suscribers cover.
This will probably be the last time we see Vlada with her Strawberry hair since she've dyed it Platinum blonde again.

Natasha by Solve Sundsbo and Panos Yiapanis




Muse magazine promised us for their number 19 edition all about Natasha Poly, as she's been the most coveted model of the last 3 seasons. The issue has two cover one shoot by Solve Sundsbo, the first one that features Natasha in a sort of karate, japanese warrior way and the other one shot by Panos Yiapanis, with the styiling of Givenchy's designer Ricardo Tisci.
Cover number two is the one I like the most, because I love the goth feeling of it. Its more simple, intimate and features Natasha a bit more than the other one, even thought Sundsbo is my favouirte photographer, Yiapanis's work for Muse is flawless.

Lily Donaldson for the Last Magazine


The Last Magazine is a rather new magazine, but it uses well knowed models. Lily Donaldson graces the cover of the Fall 2009 edition. I dont know what to think about this one. I sort of have a love hate relashionship with it.

Abbey, Natasha, Freja, Jacquetta, Myf,Anja and Raquel for Gucci Fall 2009

The first time I saw Gucci's Fall 2009 collection my first thought was like, I like it, but that approval stage passed quickly as I continued seeing the w hole collection, so with the advertisement campaign the déja vù was unavoidable. The first image that we thought was gonna be the campaing was Anja Rubik's one with a purse,very simple, but it worked. The Anja campaing turned out to be a pre-fall campaing and slowly pictures of a new campaign emerged, pictures, that nobody was so pleased about. The first set of pictures was ok, but then a so called behind the scenes video appared on you tube, making a lot of people wondering if this campaign had a reason. I'll let you be the judge but I asure you my dear reader, that Gucci's trendsetting stage is past and whe are on a new era, an era that I am not so thrilled about, an era that follows what other designers make instead of making the trends by themselves.

Why We Love Franz Ferdinand?


I've recently found myself with a new found love for unique old bands( Sex Pistols,Joy Division,Metallica,The Clash,Iron Maiden...) , but there's a band that is both new and unique: Franz Ferdinand. My love for this band is growing more and more, so I've decided to do a little tribute to them and the reasons I love them:
  • In 2004 New Musical Express magazine ranked the band's debut album "Franz Ferdinand" as the 38th best album of all time.
  • In 2004 MTV called "Take Me Out" as the Breakthrought Video of The Year
  • In 2005 they won 2 BRIT awards: Best Group and Best British Rock Act
  • The unique sound of the singles "Take Me Out" and "The Dark of The Matinée" stays in your head forever.
  • In 2006 the new album: You Could Have It So Much Better is released.
  • The single "The Fallen" is so catchy that you can't stop singing it after you've heard it.
  • Their new album: Tonight: Franz Ferdinand was realized on November 2008 and you can get it in a nearby store
