Old news

This peach cardigan is love

Also, I think I shall get bangs/layers like this the next time I get my hair cut, which should be relatively soon. I've decided this right now of course. 
My boyfriend's obsession with motorcycles is beginning to rub off on me. *sigh* Dammit.

These are Behind the Scenes photos from the May issue of Teen Vogue located here.

Elle Muliarchyk how I adore thee

I find it interesting when models have interests outside of what us common folk see as clothes and just standing around and looking pretty. 

A few years ago I watched a Fashion Television with a piece about this model from Belarus, Elle Muliarchyk, and how she was a guerrilla photographer, taking pictures of herself in designer dressing rooms. 

Then again I was watching Fashion Television a few months ago, and they did a follow up piece with Elle's new guerrilla photography, taking pictures, alone, in shady areas of the city, at night. Aptly called "Overexposed in Dangerous Places"
They're so beautiful.

I unfortunately can't post the videos specifically, but they're on the Fashion Television website under Models and Photographers. They're interesting interviews.

And her online portfolio

It should be stated...

My friends and I did this first:
On two different occasions.





That either makes us really ahead of the trend, or really dorky. I'll go with a combination of the two.

"Gee, I'm real sorry your mom blew up, Ricky"

The best dress in cinematic history: 

From Better Off Dead. This is the best picture I could find. You really must rent this to see all the gold, ruffled, shiny glory that is this dress.
And the back.

*Wink wink*

Oh Vanity Fair

My grandmother reads Vanity Fair. She doesn't subscribe, but she picks it up once a month, and whenever I visit my grandparents apartment, I always go straight to them to peruse. Then when she's done with them, she gives them to me. 

I can't wait for this next issue, because the pictures look amazing.
 
They're so retro. Like a 50's summer
