We so are–we want to bring her home. At a first glance Genevieve might strike you as yet another “nobody with a publicist” (age: unknown, occupation: interior decorator–sound familiar?) but if you look closer Miss Jones is working some seriously inspired style: sassy and feminine with just a hint of femme fatale, always showing off those pilates-perfect arms and legs (imagine the time and the effort that goes into those). And she’s slick enough to let her makeup take at least 10 years off her real age. Now there’s a woman to aspire to, kids.
Just when you thought sweet printed summer dresses have been worn every way possible in comes this Genoa prostitute with tattoos look. We can’t help but be inspired. Now we just have to decide how to style something like this without actually getting any tattoos. Hmmm. Evil-looking accessories for sure! Steven Meisel for Vogue Italia. December 2007
We’ve been trying to do the perfect “rebellious eyeliner with a little 50’s twist” look a la Sasha P in the Prada ad and it just comes out amatuer on us. Pat McGrath makes it look so easy but it’s really not. It’s almost easier to just buy the stupid Prada bag she’s advertising than paint the cat eye. It’s really frustrating but we’ll keep trying. Here’s the Pat McGrath liquid eyeliner tutorial:
Here’s some gorgeous photographs from Vogue Italia where Meisel’s models frolic with the armed forces (The Raquel Zimmerman mud wrestling shot is a stroke of genius or what?!?) This issue flew off the shelves here so fast we didn’t even get to properly take a look at them back in September. (Who doesn’t love a loosely veiled political message after all?) Enjoy.
If you were Pete Doherty, who would you rather marry: Kate Moss or Irina Lazareanu? Apparently the man’s still on the fence about it. We’d totally pick Irina–no contest!
Our model radar has detected Olga–the Karen Elsonish-looking creature with red hair, hollowed out physique and impossibly pasty white skin… and that’s fashion for you kids.
We know everyone thinks it’s our job to identify designer items worn by celebrities and all. But we don’t have the time to go through style.com (it’s one of those Burberry-Versace-Giles type collections). You get the general idea though: studded shoes=the hotness! Mary-Kate Olsen
Studded belt, gladiator platforms, Eiffel tower purse and that crazy matchy coat+dress combination! What’s going on?! Click here for more What are those shoes? Balenciaga? We want them! The dress is bananas and we love it
London’s bringing desheveled chic back–ruffles are everywhere. (And was it ripped jeans that we just saw on the catwalk?) ^Christopher Kane ^Giles ^Matthew Williamson, Duro Olowu
