Cover Loving: Kate Moss For Allure

Cover Loving

There's no stopping Kate Moss at the moment, the model might be approach 40 but the covers keep on coming, and she looks absolutely stunning on the August cover of Allure magazine. Shot by Mario Testino, the supermodel shows off her super-high cheekbones for the beauty magazine as well as her trademark pout, and actually opens up for a candid interview. Kate shares with the magazine that her insecurities over her flat chest nearly made her have a "tit job", her self-tanning habits - apparently a white bum is OK, her beauty routine which consists of "a bit of blusher, a bit of an eye, and ...

Cover Loving, Editorial Loving, Fashion

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.

There is a blonde Kate shot by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggot for Vanity Fair, a veiled Kate for Vogue Espana captured by Mario Testino, and then there is a vibrant Kate on the cover for Elle Japan snapped by Sonia Sieff who certainly doesn't look 38 years-old. Each cover is so very different, but each cover is equally as divine, and what I love is that Kate really ...

Emma Stone: Vogue US vs Teen Vogue

Cover Loving

My style crush on Emma Stone is getting nearly as bad as my one for Diane Kruger, I am not sure why but she just has the unique ability to make me smile. I completely adore her girl-next-door vibe mixed in with a chameleon who can work nearly any look, add in her goofy personality and her stunning beauty and she has it all going on. Seriously her Revlon beauty ads make me look twice, and her red carpet looks keep on wowing me. With all that love I am so pleased to see Emma finally grace the cover of American Vogue, and what a beauty of a cover it is, surely the best one of the year so far. ...
