Images from FFW Models

Putting aside the fact that she's a Victoria's Secret angel and has probably never taken a bad photograph, Adriana Lima can clearly do editorial as well as out-and-out sexy. I am always curious to see what the angels look like without hair extensions, body glitter and jaw-achingly wide smiles. Turns out she still looks pretty great. Her good looks aside, I am obsessed with all white at the moment, yet fear looking like a tennis player or the Beckhams circa 2003. Thankfully, Interview magazine shows us how to avoid that.

MODERN BEHAVIOUR

Images from Vogue

As soon as I saw these images in this month's Vogue, I made a mental note to do a post on them. I don't know whether it's the gorgeous images, the simple but cool ensembles or the models amazing hair (I would totally bleach my hair white if I didn't think it would make me look albino), but something here is working in a big way. Interestingly, the clothes are all by F & F, formerly Florence and Fred. And if the name's ringing bells it's because it's the Tesco clothing brand, aka the department you accidentally stumbled into while trying to find the wine section. Needless to say, they've undergone something of a transformation. Supermarket clothes never looked so good.

Images from The Fashionography

Such gorgeous images from Issue 9 of The Gentlewoman. Whilst coats/ponchos/shirts and swimwear don't initially spring to mind as a natural pairing, the combination of silhouettes merges surprisingly well, as well as diluting the somewhat daunting prospect of baring all in a swimsuit after months of hiding under clothes. In love with the final bodysuit...

NARCISSE - CAROLA

Images from Narcisse magazine

It's rare that I come across a beauty editorial which genuinely inspires me. There isn't a great deal in-between the how-to articles and the slightly overwrought, pile-on-the-eye-shadow style editorials. This particular shoot, from Narcisse magazine, is breathtakingly beautiful and incredibly modern. Narcisse magazine seeks to find true beauty amongst our stereotyped connotations of perfection, and with minimal air-brushing and beautifully photographed images, this is easily achieved here.
