dark vs. light

Magnificent Magazine June 2009







I love the contrast between these two light and dark haired beauties and their corresponding clothes. Delicious. I might go ahead and make the second to last picture my new banner!


ramblings

First order of business;

Last night's GRIZZLY BEAR concert was AMAZING. Seriously, one of the best concerts I've been to. One of my favorite parts was that they gave away some cupcakes to those lucky enough to be all the way in the front (we were pretty close though, I'm not complaining). They were so humble. What an amazing band and great group of people. They all performed in a straight line (even the drummer was up front and not in the back like they usually are), which I thought was odd but interesting. My friend Claudia bought the vinyl/record version of their latest album, Veckatimest, but can't listen to it until we move into our new apartment because the record player is in storage. I wish I had taken pictures.

All in all, it was a GREAT NIGHT. YAYZ!

Next and totally unrealated;

HOW HOT IS THIS BITCH?!?!?!?!



Leighton Meester (AND WEEZY LOL) at the MTV Movie Awards, via JustJared.

Gossip Girl is one of many silly guilty pleasures of mine. Leighton is just so gorgeous, both on and off screen. I think she pulls this dress off incredibly well considering the fact that she doesn't usually dress like this. My only complaint is that she needs to dye her hair back to dark brown :D.

Lastly;
I've never been the type of girl to dream about her wedding day. Getting married is not one of my priorities at the moment, or ever... I don't know.

That being said, I came across this photo by Rodney Smith and aw'd
If I were to have a wedding, I would want it to emulate this photograph. I love the idea of a black and white wedding dress or themed wedding (done right, I googled it and some of the pictures I came across kind of looked tacky, but most of them didn't).

Kind of reminds me of Armani ss 07



I loved this collection the minute I saw it, It's like fashion sketches IN REAL LIFE. The last one is my favorite. The little fan brooch/clip thing is the cherry on top.

I personally think all of these gowns would look great as wedding dresses. WITH THE HATS. YES.

HEDI SLIMANE DIARY







This reminds me of someone I know, HA.
I can't believe it's already June, ahhh. Why must time go by so so fast, I can't keep up.
Tonight I'm going to see Grizzly Bear at the 930 club. Stoked!


Lady Dior


This is the preview for the Lady Dior short film "Lady Noire."

They could not have picked a better person, she is absolutely stunning, classy, and GLAMOROUS. I have such a girl crush on her.

Gisele? Really?!

Gisele Bündchen in Numéro Tokyo No. 27 June 2009








Gisele photographed by Sølve Sundsbø



I saw these on Oh No They Didn't (yes, really) on the same day. I'm not too fond of her as a model, but WOW. For some reason these sets of photos really entertain me, especially the shoot by Sundsbø. I mean come on, THOSE MEN ARE BUILT. AND HER HAIR LOOKS PERFECT WHILE BEING HOISTED UPSIDE DOWN. Photoshop? MAGIC? Who cares, these pictures are mesmerizing.

Oh, and that molded gold bra is kind of cool too...

Just some random editorial photos for your enjoyment, and mine as well.

"Black Magic" W September 2005


Cone heads have never looked so good.



"The Other Side of Summer" Vogue Italia 2003

Not a huge fan of this shoot, but I had to post simply for the hair. I wish my hair looked half as good as that!



Agyness Deyn in W, January 2007



Words cannot describe how enamored I am with this photoshoot. This must be the perfect amount of androgyny (besides David Bowie, of course). Overexposed or not, you can not deny that she is an AMAZING model. Goddamn.
