Grace Coddington. Since The September Issue just was released on DVD, I watched it for the second time and really loved Grace in the movie, her humor, style, creativity and the way she can put an idea together into a photo shoot truly amazes me. In the movie they show pictures of her when she modeled for Vogue, she's gorgeous. Oh and it doesn't hurt that she's from Whales (the British accent wins it all).

January Style Inspiration Part 2: Carey Mulligan

I'm sure by now you all know I'm in love with the movie An Education, and being in love with it I've grown fond of Carey Mulligan. Apparently now Teen Vogue and Vogue have to! Both their Febuary issues have features on her.

In Teen Vogue she was named "Girl Of The Moment" here's the pictures featured of her

all of which are gorgeous I might add

Vogue did a little spread on her called "Natural Born Talent", I'm going to admit some of these photos are not my favorite of her but I'm still glad Vogue recognized her; she deserves it!

Already Famous

Happy New Year blogging world! I wanted to share with you all an editorial that I LOVED from the Jan 2010 US Vogue: Already Famous. It features one of my favorite models/ girl crushes, Sasha Pivovarova with a variety of "young rockers" all modeling Spring 2010's stand-out looks. The bands/artists featured are MGMT, Vampire Weekend, Beirut, The Horrors, Chester French, The Golden Silvers and Mika. Not only do I love the bands and Sasha, the looks featured are some of my favorites for spring! Here are my favorite pictures from it:


Bottega Veneta & Vampire Weekend

Lanvin & The Horrors' lead guitarist, Hayward

Yves Saint Laurent & MGMT

Louis Vuitton & Chester French

Givenchy & The Horrors' frontman, Badwan

Teen Vogue Fashion U: Canon Brand Ambassador

Finally, here come the Teen Vogue Fashion U posts, I'm going to separate them since there is so much I need to tell you guys!

First I want to tell you all about being a Canon Brand Ambassador! I'll give you the short story - I was choosen with five other girls from all over the country (and Canada and Puerto Rico!). We all had to go to a meeting at the Teen Vogue offices the day before Fashion U started, of course I was extremely nervous and had no idea what to expect. I walked up to of course, a huge office building with "four times square" written on the side along with Condé Nast sign, walked in got my name tag and went straight up to the 10th floor. The elevator ride was so nerve racking, names like Vogue, GQ, Allure and more are along side Teen Vogue which covers two floors each shared with a different magazine (GQ and Allure). I waited in the gorgeous all white lobby between Allure and Teen Vogue with the other girls waiting to go in, watching the most fashionable people I've ever seen walk in and out of the doors.

Finally we were allowed in and went right into a conference room where we got to pick a brand new Canon Powershot SD1200, they were laid out along with a Jennifer Behr headband that matched. I picked the dark grey camera and headband (so it would match all my outfits better). We got instructions about what to do over the course of the weekend - basically take pictures of anything and everything, and wear our headbands everyday so all the students at Fashion U would know who we were.

The best part? We got to keep both the camera and headband, secretly I was more excited about the headband!

more to come of Teen Vogue Fashion U!

Visionary

I promise I'm still alive! I'm finally all settled in for summer so I promise that my posts will be more frequent now. I just want to share some images from the July 2009 issue of US Vogue. The spread is called "Visionary" and it's all about the studs, metal, and chains that are big for accessories right now, all modeled by the gorgeous Lily Donaldson and photographed by Terry Richardson.
