Cover Loving: Carey Mulligan Is Pretty In Pink For Harper’s Bazaar

Carey Mulligan harpers bazaar Cover Loving: Carey Mulligan Is Pretty In Pink For Harpers Bazaar %tag

If you were a little disappointed with Carey Mulligan’s American Vogue cover, and according to my Twitter you were, well I am sure that the June issue of Harper’s Bazaar will more than make up for it.

Shot by Tom Allen, these covers not only showcase Carey’s beauty, but also a touch of her personality, especially the subscriber cover with her laughing, which I am so pleased to see as her other editorials have been so serious.

As well as adoring the blossom background and her subtly but girlie make-up, I am in love with her gorgeous pink Prada coat the floral embellishments are to-die-for!!!

I have to be honest I am not sure when I last picked up a copy of Harper’s Bazaar, much less when I added one to my growing magazine collection **I’m limited to keeping just the very best**, but I can’t wait to pick up this beauty on May 2 as I’m excited to see the accompanying ethereal fashion shoot featuring Erdem and Bottega Veneta.

Do you like Carey’s latest cover? Will you be buying the June issue of Harper’s Bazaar?

Editorial Loving: Grace Coddington Styles Carey Mulligan For US Vogue

Vogue carey mulligan 5 Editorial Loving: Grace Coddington Styles Carey Mulligan For US Vogue %tag

There is something about the roaring Twenties that just makes a fashion editorials look even more glamorous, I think it is all those sequins and beads, the decadence of the jewellery and the exquisite headpieces, I absolutely adore The Great Gatsby tribute in the May issue of American Vogue.

Starring Carey Mulligan, this is one of my favourite celebrity editorials I have seen from Vogue in a while, I love that they have kept her in character as Daisy Buchanan, as it just makes me more excited for the film to come out next month.

Styled by Grace Coddington, I am in love with all the flapper fashion from the likes of Alexander McQueen, Miu Miu, Chanel, Nina Ricci, and Oscar de la Renta, as well as the incredible set designs and location. Everything about the shoot, captured by Mario Testino, looks glamorous, expensive, and exquisite, everything you expect from the era and more.

The only thing that I am not too keen on is the cover, not the Oscar de la Renta gown, that is divine – I love the lime green colour, but Carey’s expression – she looks in pain.

What do you think of Vogue’s Great Gatsby editorial?

Cover Loving: Diane Kruger For S Moda

SModa april Diane Kruger 1 Cover Loving: Diane Kruger For S Moda %tag

My girl crush Diane Kruger has been on a role lately, numerous magazine covers, great reviews for her latest flick and more importantly a stylish promo tour, and then this week she was announced as the new face of the up-coming Chanel skincare advertising campaign – so when I saw this incredible cover and editorial from the April issue of Spanish magazine, S Moda, I just had to share – OMG – wow!!!

SModa april Diane Kruger 8 Cover Loving: Diane Kruger For S Moda %tagWearing a stripy sequinned Marc Jacobs jumpsuit, this is one gorgeous cover shot by David Roemer – I love everything from the pose, the position of her legs is a little awkward but I like that, to the incredible monochrome jumpsuit styled perfectly by Christopher Campbell, and then I zoned in on her face and I was completely blown away – I love the dramatic eye make-up and her wild hair. Simply beautiful.

The rest of the editorial is just as strong, so strong that I think these might be up there with some of my favourite shots of Diane, and it is all down to the styling – very edgy and so, so sexy. I love the sporty Theyskens’ Theory dress, the monochrome magic of the Lanvin ensemble where she is wearing a body and a skirt, which I am sure is a little reminiscent to the one that Jennifer Lawrence wore, and the embellished trench is divine, but my favourite has to be the all-black Salvatore Ferragamo look teamed with over-the-knee boots and chunky necklaces.

Cover Loving: Rosie Huntington-Whiteley For Vogue Brazil

RHW Vogue Brazil cover Cover Loving: Rosie Huntington Whiteley For Vogue Brazil %tag

Up there with Diane Kruger and Kate Hudson has to be Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, as well as working it on the red carpet and having great street style, Rosie is one of my favourite cover stars.

Her latest cover for Vogue Brazil’s April issue is one of my favourites this year and it is all to do with the Boho-Elvis mash-up of the styling.

Shot by photographer Henrique Gendre, this is a striking cover – I love the rhinestone embellished jumpsuit, the shaggy coat, and especially the black wide-rimmed hat – seriously great styling by Luis Fiod and Rosie looks incredible.

The accompanying editorial entitled ”Gladiadora do Futuro” translated as Future Gladiator is just as cool – I think Rosie is the only model who can make walking through a petrol station, talking a payphone and lounging about in a diner sexy!!!

Are you a fan of Rosie’s latest cover?

Cover Loving: Three Very Different Diane Kruger Covers

diane kruger april covers Cover Loving: Three Very Different Diane Kruger Covers %tag

I do love it when Diane Kruger has a movie coming out – not only do I get to see some fab red carpet looks,  **check out her Los Angeles premiere look** but finally there is a reason for magazines to put my favourite girl crush on their covers.

For April, Diane has really got around, gracing the cover of not one, but three different magazines, on three different continents – her reach is most certainly global. First up we have Canadian fashion mag, Flare, with Diane looking adorable in a Bottega Veneta dress, then we have a polished flawless looking Diane for Interview Germany, and then sadly we have a bizarre barley recognisable Diane on the cover of Australia magazine, Madison – what have they done to her face and hair?

Flare april diane kruger Cover Loving: Three Very Different Diane Kruger Covers %tag

Shot by Autumn De Wilde, the Flare cover is just so pretty, I am in love with her Bottega Veneta vintage-inspired tea dress from the spring/summer 2013 collection, which has been styled perfectly with those tri-colour Christian Louboutin heels and the insanely cute Louis Vuitton headband, you may recognise it from one of Kerry Washington’s fab red carpet looks earlier in the year, and of course Diane is carrying a Chanel handbag to finish her look.

The only thing I really don’t like from this cover is the insanely huge cover line ‘hello spring’ right across her – really is that going to sell the magazine more than if it wasn’t there???

The rest of the editorial is just as good, you see Diane wearing Miu Miu, Rochas, Marc Jacobs and more Chanel, as well as posing with a cute kitty.

I love the vintage-inspired Flare cover, but I completely adore the Markus Jans shot Interview cover, Diane does flawless so well and this just beautiful. Striped back and polished, this is one hell of a profile cover, I love everything from her eyes to her barely there make-up, and even the position of her hands – this really does show off her modelling background. I really can’t wait to see the rest of the editorial.

Madison april diane kruger Cover Loving: Three Very Different Diane Kruger Covers %tag

However, Australia magazine, Madison didn’t quite impress me like the other two titles. From the neck down this cover is divine, I love the pale blue dress, I even love the flirty touch of her hitching up the skirt, but I just can’t understand why they made her look a little crazy. That hair, the make-up, the appalling OTT photoshop to her face – it really doesn’t look like Diane or even pretty. Why, Madison, why???

Which cover would you go out and buy?

Cover Loving: Charlotte Free For Flare

Flare charlotte free Cover Loving: Charlotte Free For Flare %tag

As soon as I saw this cover I couldn’t help but repeat the word ‘Beetlejuice’ three times, seriously I sometimes think I’m programmed by the movies I love, but wow what a cover from model of the moment Charlotte Free.

Flare always seem to get it right whether it is an A-list celebrity or a model cover and this is one of my favourite model covers as it is showing off her personality as well as the styling, which totally makes me wish I had skinny legs so I could pull of these ’Beetlejuice’ striped black and white Genetic jeans.

I love the combination of the Comme des Garçons jacket, the dotty printed Equipment shirt and those Louis Vuitton platforms and I reckon we might see some variations on this paraded at London Fashion Week in street style shots.

Even with the pink dip-dye hair, yes one hair trend I would love to see the back off, I love this cover as Charlotte really does ooze cool in her candy floss pink tips.

So what do you think of the 5’7″ model – is she the next Kate Moss?

Cover Loving: Kate Moss And Her Four i-D Covers

id magazine kate covers Cover Loving: Kate Moss And Her Four i D Covers %tag

Q is for Queen in i-D magazine’s pre-spring Alphabetical issue and it seems that they decided to put the Queen of all supermodels on not one but four covers as Kate Moss continues to out work models half her age.

Shot by Daniele + Iango, the covers not only look incredible, but they also celebrate 20 years of Kate Moss winking on the i-D cover. Looking at these shots you wouldn’t think that Mossy was 40, mush less that she first posed for i-D back in 1993 – she looks stunning in each one.

I can’t decide which is my favourite cover, I do love a black and white cover, I adore her Dior bow, the sexiness of the Saint Laurent hat, and the girliest cover I have seen from her is the floral Prada. Basically I love them all, but I think the black and white with the messy plait gets my vote. Now all I need to do is track it down!!!
