Bonjour Ma Cherie

Favourite Editorial of 2009

2009-12-31T15:44:00.002+08:00

This is my favourite editorial from 2009! I'm not usually a huge fan of Tanya Dziahileva but here I think she's amazing! The whole thing is just perfection in my eyes.

Uptown Girls

2009-12-21T23:03:00.004+08:00

You've probably all heard that actress Brittany Murphy has died. It's so sad, not only because she was so young, but also because she was a great actress. I absolutely love her in Girl, Interrupted (one of my all time favorite movies), and Uptown Girls. When my mom and I heard the news we decided to watch Uptown Girls as a little tribute to Brittany. I hadn't seen it in awhile, so watching it tonight reminded me of two things: 1. It's a really sweet movie (I cry like a baby at the end) and 2. Brittany's clothes are awesome in it! They're quirky and cute, exactly like her character. I put together a few pictures from my favorite scenes in the movie. Enjoy :)

^Such a pretty dress!

RIP Brittany <3

I was browsing through flickr and I came across this absolutely beautiful picture. I don't know who this model is or if she already has a contract with a major angency, but if not, she needs one NOW! I love everything about this photo.

La Veste

2009-12-18T20:27:00.004+08:00

I originally wanted to post something to do with winter or Christmas, but I was in a summery (and not to mention Daria) mood! This editorial is from Vogue Paris March 2009, and despite the fact that the styling is pretty over the top I kind of like it. It's almost a little bit ironic. Anyway, for those of you who aren't into cold weather, I hope you enjoy this!

Wild Things with Abbey

2009-11-27T14:06:00.003+08:00

One of my favorite models in one of my favorite editorials from Dazed & Confused in '09. I love the "Where the Wild Things Are" concept as well. Who can resist a beautful girl in a horned crown!? Not me, that's for sure.

Anja & Fibi

2009-11-23T18:50:00.003+08:00

Have you guys seen the videos of Anja Rubik and her rat Fibi? Fibis no longer alive, :( , but the videos are still up and they're adorable! It actually makes me want a rat! Anja had a tattoo of Fibi done on her wrist after she died, as a tribute to how much she loved her. ENJOY!

There's another really cute video where Anja is scratching her, but I can't embed it. So here's the link!

There's Fibi!^^

RIP Daul Kim

2009-11-22T11:52:00.000+08:00

This breaks my heart. South Korean model Daul Kim passed away on November 19, 2009 in Paris. She was one of the top asian models working today, doing all the big shows in NY, Milan, London, and Paris. She seemed so full of life, but clearly she was carrying a lot of pain as well. I hope you find peace Daul. <3

My favorite editorial of Dauls' from Russh November/December 2009.

en automne & en hiver

2009-11-22T11:06:00.000+08:00

Where I currently live it never gets cold (unfortunately), and when I saw this editorial I began craving the sweaters, coats, and hats that come with autumn and winter. If it's getting cold where you live, I hope this inspires you in one way or another!

Vintage Agyness

2009-08-12T15:16:00.000+08:00

This is an older picture of Agyness, and guessing by her hair, it was the start of her modeling career. She was just as cute then as she is now!

AnnaSophia

2009-08-05T20:40:00.001+08:00

I really like actress AnnaSophia Robb of late. She's very talented, adorable, and I love how she never tries to act or look older than her age. Other young actresses of hollywood should follow her example. cough cough taylor momsen cough...

Emma Watson in August

2009-08-01T15:30:00.000+08:00

I don't read Teen Vogue very often, but when I do this is the type of editorial I like to see. Great model (Emma Watson looks great in print), great styling (chic and sophisticated pieces), and a lovely setting (I love rural and nature backgrounds)! Teen Vogue often chooses covers that I feel look mediocre, but this one is spot on (minus the text overload)! It's a trend I hope Teen Vogue will continue to follow!

These two photos below are outtakes from the shoot.

RIP

2009-07-29T08:07:00.000+08:00

Last month, June 28, marked the one year anniversary of the death of Ruslana Korshunova. Her death effected me in a profound way in that I realized even the most beautiful of people living the most beauiful of lives can be unhappy. She was a wonderful model, and therefore I am dedicating this post to some of my favorite pictures of her. RIP angel.

More Summer Inspiration!

2009-07-15T22:39:00.000+08:00

I never get sick of Angela! Here's another summer editorial to inspire you throughout these warm months!

CéU

2009-07-13T05:36:00.000+08:00

If you're not familar with the brazilian singer CéU, you should be! She has the most beautiful voice and is ridiculously stunning. Her new album Vagarosa is my summer soundtrack!

Daily Dose

2009-07-12T11:37:00.000+08:00

Your daily dose of Angela! I could dedicate this entire blog to her work!

P.S. I have many other Angela summer editorials that I'm dying to post!

In the Mood for Summer!

Basking In Style

In honor of the wonders of summertime I found this editorial from Elle US 1998 with model Esther Canadas.
I feel like I'm on the beach with her!

Model of the Moment

2009-07-08T23:05:00.001+08:00

Iris Strubegger

I really love Iris's look lately. Her hair was cut super short (I personally love short hair), and as a result she's getting more work than she ever has before! Campaigns for Givenchy, Valentino, and the cover of Paris Vogue! Hope to see plenty more from her!

Model Mania!

2009-06-19T11:33:00.000+08:00

I've been meaning to do a post dedicated to my favorite models for awhile, so here it is! I could have easily included many other girls, but I decided to try and narrow it down to the models I love the most!

Angela Lindvall.

I love how she has left the industry twice to have children and yet her career is still so strong. She seems like such a lovely person also :)

Anja Rubik.
She's obviously gorgeous, but I really love Anja because she's also extremely intelligent. In all her interviews she gives these lovely answers about helping people and being kind. It's nice to see a model concerned with more than just herself. She is also an AMAZING poser. In my opinion the best in the business.

Kate Moss.
Just look at that face! How could you not love her! I believe she is one of the defining style icons of her generation. From the "waif" look to skinny jeans, she's always ahead of everyone else in terms of style.

Agyness Deyn.
She's cute, funny, sweet, and made having short hair cool again. I'm a bit sad she's grown it out now, but it's still my favorite haircut of any recent model. LOVE YOU AGGY!

Maryna Linchuk.
The "Miss Dior Cherie" girl has serious street style to go with her amazing face. I think she's one of the more beautiful girls working today, and she doesn't get nearly as much work as she should.

Lara Stone.
Basically, Lara is a bad ass. And I love her for it.

"Somewhere"

2009-06-18T13:34:00.001+08:00

from "Lost in Translation"

"Miss Dior Cherie" commercial with model Maryna Linchuk

Marie Antoinette's Kirsten Dunst

Marc Jacobs perfume campaign

In honor of Sofia Coppola's next film "Somewhere," starring Stephen Dorff and Elle Fanning, I decided to post my favorite pictures of my favorite director and her films!

Vintage Moss

2009-06-17T14:56:00.000+08:00

with naomi!

I really like Kate Moss now-adays, but I love the pictures she did when she was younger. She looked so innocent and fresh, but still had an air of approachability. She's one of my favorites because I don't find her beauty intimidating like I do with other models. She basically just seemed and still seems ridiculously cool.

Vogue Paris lovely

2009-06-13T14:45:00.000+08:00

I love everything about this editorial. The styling, setting, and of course Magdalena and the dogs, are perfect. But then again, Vogue Paris rarely has editorials I don't like.

(There are a few other pictures in this editorial, but these are my favorite)

Forget Balmain!

2009-05-11T15:06:00.000+08:00

These may look Balmain to you, but guess what?! They're Zara! I think for a knock off, they are pretty darn good. I wouldn't recommend this color tights though, too sheer.

Vintage Angela

2009-05-10T19:30:00.001+08:00

my favorite of the bunch

These have become my favorite pictures of Angela Lindvall, and that's saying something. Her body of work is beautiful, but something about these is extraordinary.

Anna Selezneva

2008-09-14T18:07:00.000+08:00

I love this girl.

A lot of people claim her eyes can look dead in pictures, or that she looks like a tyranny! Personally I find this ridiculous. She's gorgeous, and this is one of my all time favorite covers. Her editorial inside is FANTASTIC! I'm glad Vogue Paris used a different model to put on the cover instead of Daria, Natasha, or Raquel. Even though their still in the editorials. Hopefully they'll keep mixing it up.

RED LIPS

2008-09-06T09:46:00.000+08:00

One of my favorite trends for this season is the dark dark red stained lips. They were seen at Chloe (shown in picture), Donna Karen, and many other shows. They're sexy, but I also think they look a little innocent too. Tres chic!

The Duchess

2008-08-28T16:20:00.000+08:00

I, for one, am extremely excited about this movie. Keira Knightley is fantastic and any film that involves corsets and amazing dresses instantly catches my attention. I'm thinking it's going to become a fast favorite.

Any thoughts?

VOGUE Paris August 2008

2008-08-15T16:44:00.000+08:00

This isn't a new editorial, but when I saw it, I fell in love with it.

These are my favorite photos from it. I love them so much I put two of them on the side of the blog page. The model is Anna Selezneva. ENJOY!

GOTH GIRLS

2008-08-12T22:59:00.000+08:00

I have never liked the goth look until I saw it all over the runways for Autumn 2008. Call me crazy, but the dark lips and the very severe black bob from Yves Saint Laurent are actually kind of pretty. Of course I don't think I'll be wearing my makeup like Aggy at the John Galliano show any time soon, but that doesn't mean we can't put a little goth into our wardrobes. Some extra black clothes and dark eyeliner will do! Maybe I'll even give my skin a break from the sun so I can pale up a bit?

Images: Yves Saint Laurent, Giles, John Galliano.

Thoughts on going goth??

BONJOUR!

2008-08-12T22:54:00.000+08:00

Hello everyone! I decided to set up a blog in order to spread around my love of fashion and everything that goes with it. I'll be posting editorials, fashion news, and anything else that I think you might enjoy. Fashion is such an interesting thing since everyone has their own opinions, so let me know what you think!
