Rosie Huntington-Whiteley for Vogue Brazil April 2012


Yet another Transformers star snags the cover of a magazine. This time it's the gorgeous Brit Rosie Huntington-Whiteley for Vogue Brazil! On the April cover Rosie wears a beautiful retro-looking outfit from Animale's Fall 2012 Collection and is photographed by Henrique Gendre.

In case you missed it, Rosie walked the runway for Animale in Sao Paulo for the Fall 2012 show (looking every bit like a bronze Brazilian actually) which was one of her first runway appearances since her Victoria Secret days. She's put all that to the side now to focus on becoming an actress. You know, a real one.





She looks so fierce, literally, her face says it all.

Yours,

Megan Fox for Jalouse Magazine Apirl 2012


Megan Fox, of Transformers fame (because really we don't know her for anything else) is the cover girl for French magazine Jalouse this April. In it, she gives us her best pout (of course) in various hats and actually gives us some vintage model glam on the cover circa Christy Turlington's early days.

The Wedding of Weddings: The Invite


I'm on vacation! Nice opener right? I'm in Toronto for two weeks to attend what I like to call 'the wedding of weddings'. My twin (separated at birth and born three years ahead) also known as my cousin Samantha, is getting married! To the coolest and most creative Englishman no less. A match made in heaven and I couldn't be any happier to be here to watch this all play out before my eyes. Two weeks ago, I got my invitation to this epic event in the mail and I could tell it was a product of diligence. It was comparable to the distinction between hand made jewellery that received individual attention and the mass produced (although still beautiful) alternative. I asked Sam about it and she told me her fiancĂ©e Tim designed and made them. This was my first indication that I was going to be happy to welcome him into our family.

Weddings make me feel like such a hopelessly romantic female a la the fairy tales engrained in our brains. So excited for this! Look out for more posts on Sam's preparations leading up to D Day including the vintage inspired dress and headpiece she made herself (and the many other things she made, my fam has talent), the bridal party and the hilarious shots I got at her bridal shower.

Yours,

Kate Moss Lives the Lush Life for Vogue


The British supermodel lives out almost every girl's fantasy life in Vogue's April Issue as she glams it up at the Ritz Paris (shot by Tim Walker no less). Kate is swathed in haute couture and struts around the opulent hotel in shoes I wish I could wear without breaking a leg (or both). The Ritz was once the place Coco Chanel called home and in this shoot, I can see why.

Gush at Kate's spread below and read the full article at Vogue.




 




Ok stop dreaming now, it's over.
