poppy / elle / spain







shot by xavi gordo

how absolutely fun and vibrant is this shoot of poppy delevigne for elle spain april 2013? it's always refreshing when editorials have a sort of brilliant liveliness to them - you know, when the models are actually smiling and having a jolly ol' time.

i love me some ashley smith! and i'm totally digging the oh-so-fancy skirts mixed in with a rocker tee.

icone du jour: evelyn tripp










how stunning is this woman?
one of the top models in the 1950s and 60s, evelyn tripp was actually discovered while she was shopping at a fifth avenue store. 
her long neck and her slim waist combined with her dramatic facial features made her a photographer-favorite.
voila!

belle vere








i take my hat off to vogue italia's june 2012 issue - the cover is graced by three plus size models. in a world where paper-thin is considered the ultimate form of beauty, this definitely pushes the envelope. i'm going to sound so corny saying this but it's an elementary truth : beauty comes from within. it comes with confidence and acceptance.
