Helena Bonham Carter for Marc Jacobs (Part II)

Yet another picture from Helena Bonham Carter for Marc Jacobs' Fall/Winter 2012 ad campaign has leaked and I don't like it. I thought the other one was fun and whatever, but this is weird. I mean, weirder than usual. Dare I say it, weirder than her two-different-colored-shoes-on-the-red-carpet thing.

Elle Fanning

What the what? Elle Fanning is featured in Maire Claire's July issue looking seriously ADORABLE. Absolutely, completely, 110% adorable. I had glasses, braces and glitter eyeshadow when I was 13. I was most definitely not running around in $4,000 coats. Lucky. I literally want to put her in my pocket and take her home. She's precious.
I love everything about this outfit. From the Les Copains top and shorts to the stunning Miu Miu shoes. She's so freaking cute!
Can we make gloves cool again? Maybe I'll try doing it myself. Carolina Amato gloves, be mine!
How is she 13?...
Oh hey, look! This Stella McCartney dress is making another appearance. It was last featured on Emma Stone for her ELLE cover shoot. Tsk tsk.
I need this D&G skirt in my life. I also need these Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti shoes. I think I've just found my new "it" color. Goodbye blush, hello mint green! Or maybe I can love both. At the same time. It will be like a Leighton Meester/Emma Stone situation. Yes?
I LOVE tulle. I know I probably shouldn't but I do. I also love her pose. Look at her hair, look at it!

Blake Lively vs. Brooklyn Decker

Yesterday morning Blake Lively made an appearance on the "Today" show in this adorable little Tibi dress. I love it. Brooklyn Decker wore the white version of this dress the same day, but she paired it with an ugly army green vest thing. What was she thinking? Honestly, it's so ugly and I hate it. But now back to Blake Lively. I love that she paired it with a pair of cheetah print Louboutin heels. Perfection, as almost always, Blake Lively.

Ke$ha

Wait. You guys. I don't understand what's going on. LOOK AT KE$HA RIGHT NOW. Look. I KNOW, RIGHT?! She looked ridiculously well, pretty and surprisingly clean last night at the amfAR Inspiration Gala last night in New York City. Like, granted, I'm not loving her dress, but it's really not that bad. We've seen worse. I mean, I saw her in concert, believe you me, she's worn worse. And actually, looking at her little ensemble it would look really fun in an editorial, no? Gosh, so impressed K$.
I want her earrings. They're so pretty. And her nails are all the same color and they're not chipped. WHAT I$ GOING ON?

Vogue July 2011

OH. MY. HOGWARTS. I must give Anna Wintour a round of applause. Vogue has finally and officially (For reals this time, Reese Witherspoon and Penelope Cruz were close, but this, this is perfection) redeemed itself in my eyes. I mean, Emma Watson? It's about damn time, if you ask me. Really, what were they waiting for? I could not be more pleased with this choice even if I tried. I love the dark contrasting colors and I even love the severity of her hair. And of course, as almost always, I love the clothes. Oh, how I love the clothes. You guys, I'm going to write Vogue a letter congratulating them on celebrating the gorgeousness that is Emma Watson.
Gorgeous. Absolutely gorgeous.
I am OBSESSED with these Alexander McQueen thigh-high boots. Yes, I long for them to be tights, but they aren't and I've moved on. They are just too pretty to hate. Try and focus on the detail. Breathtaking, am I right? Well , of course...
I need this outfit in my life. I love the colors. I love the Tom Ford top and the fact that it looks like a piece of armor. I especially love the Undercover skirt. I mean, just look at it. It's stunning.
Okay, well she looks like a fancy Big Bird here.
She is so freaking pretty, it's gross.
BOOTS. And boys in suits, but mainly boots.

Picture Perfect

Leighton Meester
(I took this picture. Last night. I also met her. I'm also still trying to comprehend the fact that I met my Queen, the Duchess of my Heart, my girl crush forever, etc. Well, you know how I feel about her, you read my blog...)

Marie Claire July 2011

Miss Rachel Green, or Jennifer Aniston (Whatever) graces the cover of Marie Claire's July issue looking cuter than ever. I mean, I adore her already, but I'm kind of loving her hair (Shocking, right? Someone lusting over Jennifer Aniston's hair?! What is this madness? Call the presses! Alert the media! Tweet!) and the Ann Demeulemeester blazer she's wearing. How does she manage to stay looking so young and cute all the livelong day? I'll never understand. Well, unless she does some product placement and thanks Smart Water for keeping her lean and thin... Oh, she's also featured with some of the cast of her new movie "Horrible Bosses" and uh, I don't know if I've mentioned this already, but I do happen to have an inappropriate crush on Jason Sudeikis. I can't help these feelings, I blame "30 Rock" for that. I blame "30 Rock" for a lot of things, actually.
You know, I'd like to take the time now to thank Marie Claire for their choice in not only cover girls, but their cover pictures. MORE than half of the time, other magazines choose really awkward and just plain unfortunate looking pictures, but Marie Claire steps up to the plate, takes one for the team, goes the extra mile, etc. (Where are all these weird sayings coming from? I just watched ABC Family, that could be the source of all this). Either way, I am really impressed.
Ugh. His dimples. I think that's what gets me. The dimples. Or the fact that my crush is so inappropriate. I'm not sure. Either way, I love him. And Jennifer, well, she looks beautiful still.
Okay, this reminds me of a shoot Tina Fey did with Vanity Fair in 2009 where she was photographed dancing to Beyonce's "Crazy In Love." No, you don't remember it? Well, here, let me show you...
My sister and I refer to this picture about twice a month. It's perfection. Absolute, utter, complete perfection.
I want her legs, please.
