Do You Wish September Mags Had Non-Blond Cover Models?
Since the September cover of Marie Claire popped up, it's become increasingly obvious that the glossy mags weren't kidding when they released their cover choices for the first Fall month — generally the biggest and most important issue of the year. As Fashionologie points out, Vogue, Allure, Elle, W, Glamour, and Marie Claire will all have light-haired cover stars. InStyle, which will feature Jennifer Lopez, seems to be the only exception.
Super Styley Beauty Icon: Kate Lanphear
Kate Lanphear is the style director of Elle, and she is also the number-one stunner in my book. She reminds me of the coolest girl in high school, the one who listened to Joy Division and drove a crappy vintage car and read The Waste Land at lunchtime. She makes me think of Watts from Some Kind of Wonderful gone fashion.
You Are Way Too Picky
There is a somewhat disturbing article in the October issue of Elle about the author's recent battle with a bout of dematillomania, also known as acne excoriée. Call it what you will, but many people pick at their faces. Some of us gently extract in a magnifying mirror, while others perform minor surgery until we draw blood.
Bella Interview: Gina Brooke
I think pretty much everyone can agree that Madonna looks amazing in the May issue of Elle. Her gorgeous makeup look is the work of Gina Brooke, the artistic director of Shu Uemura. As Madonna's personal makeup artist, she's also responsible for those legendary mink-and-diamond lashes from a couple of years ago.
Coco Rocha Spritzes Fiercely in Elle Campaign
One fragrance I've been meaning to check out is Yves Saint Laurent Elle, but after seeing the commercial for it, I'm expecting something completely different from the fresh, youthful scent I'd anticipated. Check this out:
This commercial is visually gripping, and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs song just adds to the cool factor. But I'm a little scared of Coco Rocha's fierceness.
Do You Still Follow Lindsay's Hair and Makeup Cues?
The September issue of Elle features some photos of Lindsay Lohan looking sophisticated (and, of course, a dishy interview done right before her recent arrest).
Despite her latest legal troubles, she looks great in these Elle, and I love this Gisele-esque hair on her. Yet I'm wondering if her status as a beauty trendsetter may be affected by her constant personal dramas.
Coming Soon: Yves Saint Laurent Elle
At the risk of sounding like Polly Perfumaniac, I've got even more fragrance news for you. Yves Saint Laurent is preparing a new fragrance called Elle.
WWD reports that this fragrance is meant for the younger YSL fan, and serves as a contrast between the fashion house's tradition and the modern, urban lifestyle.
