LA-Hippi Meets Cool Cowboy-Couture with Sofya Titova in Gioia
Sofya Titova is a fringe-fantasy come true, capturing the perfect LA-Style “Cowboy-Couture,” for the current issue of Gioia Magazine. Although shot on the streets of Monte Carlo, Alice Rosati’ “Cowboys & Indians” has a distinctly LA-vibe, with a cool, urban-edge. Every year I wait for that 1 image that will inspire my Spring/Summer “Hippi-Chic” look, and it would appear my wait is over.

Turn the Sand into a Runway with Amanda Nørgaard in Danish Cover Magazine
Going for “post-apocalyptic” chic, Amanda Nørgaard survives, in looks hot enough to melt metal, for the May issue of Danish Cover Magazine.

Linda Evangalista Dances for Steven Meisel in the May issue of Vogue Italia
Looking back to see forward, Linda Evangelista embraces her “Super-Model” past for the May issue of Vogue Italia. Getting her groove-on, lens-master – Steven Meisel – captures the “Glam Italiano,” as she saunter through the shoot with free-flowing looks, meant to flatter a body in movement. Finding her “cha cha” power, this 40-something model proves it’s not always about, “what you put on,” that makes you shine, rather, it’s what’s on the inside that shines through.

Sienna Miller is Flying High in the April 2012 Vogue Uk.
Looking all together fresh, Sienna Miller trades in her “Street-Chic” to go a little “Sweet-Chic,” for the cover/editorial in the April issue of Vogue UK. In Ryan McGinley’s “Great Expectations” the fashion it-girl gets in-touch with nature as she goes a’ la natural, with humming birds sitting perched on her topless body. For the remaining images, she sits calmly surrounded by flying birds and falling flowers, as she models a variety of Spring dresses, showing a more serene-mature side of herself.

Linda Evangalist Plays Solo for Love Magazine’s S/S Cover
Love Magazine is notorious for producing multiple covers for their much-anticipated Spring/Summer issue. However, this year’s will be distributed with only 1 cover option, this fabulous shot of Linda Evangalista, by the dynamic-duo of Mert Alas & Marcus Piggot (known in the fashion industry as Mert & Marcus). With styling that pays homage to the Sex Pistols, “God Save the Queen“, the psychedelic-color-scheme is a raucaus good-time, and truly inspired neon-nod to the 2012 Spring/Summer fashion/beauty trends.

Rooney Mara Stuns in December Issue of Vogue US, by Mert & Marcus
In the much sought-after role for the lead in the “Girl With the Dragon Tattoo”, the buzz around this unknown ingenue came with a healthy dose of interest/speculation. As every edgy actress with a name in Hollywood saw themselves as possessing the true spirit of this young phenom, and capable of bringing-her-to-life on the big screen. However, it was Rooney Mara who came in and captivated all who mattered, and was ultimately the one destined to take on this beloved character.

Wonderland’s Hot Cover-Duo Kirsten Dunst & Alex Skarsgard
Kirsten Dunst seems to be sticking her toe back in the “Fashion-Water” as of late, collecting a few positive Red-Carpet accolades, working for Rodarte, doing a film with her Wonderland Magazine “Cover-Boy” partner Alex Skarsgard – and catching another September Issue Cover for ElleUk. After a ton of bad press, the starlet went Underground for a bit – so I guess only time will tell if she’s back with something relevant to offer.

Jennifer Lopez on Cover of Vanity Fair
Well the Diva’s back. Jennifer Lopez’s alter ego – JLo – has been on an extended hiatus as she’s been playing mommy/housewife to her soon-to-be-ex husband Marc Anthony, and young twins. I wasn’t really buying the “Domesticated Diva” routine, I felt it was only a matter of time before she blew. And to watch her (very new) post-breakup activities one can see that she’s not even able to play it cool, and slowly build up her momentum – instead it’s clothes off, and camera’s on.

Go for Carefree-Chic with Mulit-Layering
Another way to jump on the “Layering-Trend” this Season is to go for the updated Grunge – what I’m calling “Carefree-Chic.” Writing this from the birthplace of Grunge (Seattle), I hesitate to even put that term out there again – but it’s a well know reference, and it makes it’s point. When I look at Charlotte Ronson’s Spring 2011 Collection I can’t help but make the comparison to the 90’s grunge-movement.
